Yea they are! Forest is cool because reminds me of my times in 'Nam....I like Jagd too, but I still haven't tried all the maps.

Stop by our servers somtime, Slinky. It'd be awesome to play you.

Haha, nice! biggrin:

I need to get my new 3D card dammit!

My little review of DoD v1.0

Very cool biggrin:

Brits are awesome cos now we have a rail gun to waste ze Germans like they have been doing to us since Beta 1. evil:

Bren is cool, Brit voice cmds are funny as hell, new sounds, models and textures all are great. New maps are really fun too.

Downside, the game has gotten REALLY laggy for everyone now. I ususally get pings of 50-100 on servers in my area, now it's 400+. I hope they fix the netcode soon, some maps are murder to play on.

Also the bazookas, piats and panzerschreks are really fun now. It's not like MOHAA where they are a noob cannon. They are really hard to use and splash damage is almost nil cos these are anti armour weapons not anti infantry. On the map Forest they are really fun to use because you can blow up bunkers and shit. Also the sound is reeeally cool. Incredibly frightening as you are crouching in a trench and you hear one being fired then this huge KABOOM!

I just hope they sort out the lag issue. Other wise two thumbs up.

My opinion is its been dumbed down too much for friggin n00bs. I mean the little radar thing is really stupid, it shows when enemy grenades are being tossed your direction like wtf. Anyone with a bit of sense would just watch for them but since n00bs are gonna play this since its retail they need to attach some sorta fucking beacon to the grenade possibly with siren to let them know grenade approaching run like fuck. oOo:

Saying that though the n00b will probably stand and stare in amazement at the grenade before calling hacks after he gets blown to fuck away.

Another thing is the amount of stuff theyve lifted from medal of honor over the past few revisions. Anyone whos been here a while will remember the aa.com and dod.com forum wars, anything medal of honor had in pic form dodr's tried copying it and claiming that "they weren't copying stuff". I remember that fucking idiot kamakazi one of the dod "team" saying the medal of honor series was copying from dod, i helpfully informed him medal of honor was on the psx long before dod was even a concept and he shut the fuck up and deleted the thread. ( he loved being proved wrong)

Anyway the dod "team" said they wouldn't go the way of moh but with this release they obviously have. We now have a garand with a buttclub animation (where have i seen that before) add to the fact the animation is pretty shit and its a pretty lame addition anyway. Then we have the 2 types of grenade toss (hmm where have i seen that before) which is barely usefull at the best of times.

We also have fucking movement when zoomed in (hmm where have i seen that before) which is an unrealistic feature for what is supposed to be a mod thats based on realistic features. Casting my mind back i remember the dod whingers bullshitting that the garand reload in the old moh vids was too fast but oddly enough come dod 3.1 their garand relaod animation was pretty much a carbon copy of the moh one as well as being about the same in duration. Oh yeah and "bazookas"..... oOo:. May as well add shotguns to finalise the similarities once and for all. eek:

The big problems with this release is framerate, most maps seem to lag like fuck when multiple grenade explosion effects are going off. Add the retarded "deathcam" into the mix which helpfully shows who you killed where you are (ala battlefield 1942) and its obvious the game has been turned into a game laden with n00b friendly features). Also i really get the impression this deathcam was put in with the intention of nullifying snipers so fuck you dod team.

Im not gonna get started on their animations for the weapons which are wrong (coughTOMMYGUN RELOAD U IDIOTScough). It just irks me that they seem to think their mod is 100% original uninspired content when fucking stevie wonder could see a LOT of stuff has been lifted directly from medal of honor.

I remember back in the day the dod forums laughing at the fact how in moh you could drop and pick up enemy weapon saying it was unrealistic and even dod team members chiming in agreeing. Now all of a sudden since its in their mod its somehow a "useful feature" funny how u fuckheads weren't saying that a year ago or more. Oh and by the way YOUR ENFIELD BAYONET IS WRONG MORONS, so much for researching stuff, then again looking at the tommygun reload, the greasegun reload and the various other inaccuracies im not really suprised.

Imo dod has been sold up the river, its like counterstrike, its been n00bized for retail buyers and as long as the dod "team" are getting money from valve they won't care even though they voice their "concern" on the forums from time to time.

i dont see why the webley sucks so much, wasn't it a pretty powerful round? dod acts like its a .22 cuz i unloaded into someone at point blank range think i got 3 shots off in his chest before he stabbed me with his bayonet

i dont get the garand wtf is with the bash??? would it really be so hard to add a bayonet? only standard issue back then

at least i can kill now tho i always sucked up 3.1 but i have no problems killing ppl now, go figure.

You're right Germ, a lot is from MoH, also the team icons, so n00bs don't shoot their team. Pretty stupid IMO..The Minimap should only be useful as a map, not showing other shit.

Oh crap, I called you Germ...Sorry 'bout that.

I do, in a way, feel it has been n00bed. The deathcam REALLY pisses me off. If I can get into a spot and start pulling off KAR kills, then it's rapefest. Now I can't because the guy just dies, sees where I am and then I'm done for. The map is cool, but like you said, the nades are BS. I can usually spot nades and through em back if I'm lucky. I honestly just turned off the icons.

All in all though, it's still a good game. I love when people yell hacks the 4th day it's out. Some of em where stacking up behind a door and I could hear them shotting at it. So I go up to the door ,with a BAR, and shoot through the wood door then I see. "OMFG! DEATH YOU HACK! JESUS YOU HACK!" The mortars are a bit of a nice addition too.
