dod 1.1

Day of Defeat 1.1 will be released for steam tomorrow :biggrin:
:beerchug:

Not going to bother if it's Steam only, mapping with Steam is annoying and not worth it. If there is no regular client side file available then it's the end of my DoD days.

hmm ... that's sad, gorbachev :sad:

personally i dont mind taking into account the steam platform when im mapping, but then i only map for cs 1.6 in steam .. is it harder in dod? dod 1.1 would have all the wads that you need so i cant see any probs... just in cs 1.6 they took out some of the good maps that were in 1.5 which had great wads which i loved to use :sad:

What differences are there with mapping for steam?
They better release a normal client for it!

I really dont like steam.

I <3 Steam.

Id love to get dod 1.1. but dod just doesnt worrk for me for some reason.

When ever I try to get on a server it takes ages to veryfy resourses and then it times out so i type retry in the console and the same thing happers all over again and nommater how many times i try it always times out so I'm redused to playing cs or the specialists when my favorite mod is dod .

It's worse than normal HL. Why would I want to work with an inferior tool? It looks crappier on Steam, runs slower, takes longer to join servers, takes up a lot more memory has nasty choices for in-game fonts and colours and a slew of other complaints I have. Someone on the DoD forums hinted that there may be a "WON patch" version, which is good for me, I just have to wait to see if that's true.

gotta say, im with gorby on this one.....i personally think steam needs to still be in beta testing.....im not sure they anticipated half the problems that have arisen....DoD was an awsome mod....

Doc Brass.. :dodgy:

yeh there is going to be a normal patch for dod.

should be out around now aswell

[EDIT]

I have just found out it will only be on steam for a while but they did say this

Once we've completed a short testing phase, the official 1.1 release will be available both through Steam and as a downloadable patch.

so its only a beta atm.

Well dod just gets worse and worse 1.1 is a load of crap! Dod going official was the worst move ever!

DoD going official wasn't the worst thing, it was the combination of DoD official and Steam being released around each other, and now it's getting to the "You can access you files if you want because I'm Steam and I won't let you." Time to wait for the WON patch, even though quite frankly that's a stupid excuse, it'd take him like 3 mins to put the files in an .exe and release it, they're the same things...there is less work required than for Steam.

yep....but they decided to make it an "all or nothing kind of commitment, and here yer starting to see the results of "putting all yer eggs in one basket"....im assuming they dont have a backup plan, and are "wingin' it", day to day....aint it grand??....

ya gotta laff guys, otherwise, most forlks would be pretty damn pissed of about now... :razz:

Doc Brass... :dodgy:

Steam smokes c**k.

dont be shy Cass....tell em how you feel...

Doc Brass... :dodgy:

I just played DOD 1.1

I rarely played 1.0, and played beta 2.5 for all of 20 minutes. so, as a dod newbie i still say dod 1.1 is mad, coz its a nice change from cs and ns. But im sure if i had been more active in 1.0 i would probly be pissed now

...beta 2.5?

Also, another reason why mapping for steam is useless is that fact that you cannot use .wad files. I dont know if this has been fixed yet (might have been) but the wads were cache files, and steam had an error with that.

yes, beta 2.5 ... that's what i remember it as, at least. I remember having to update to beta 3.0, and i had 2.x

EDIT: hehe vash, 1338 snarkmarks, 1 too many forum posts :razz:

I downloaded the update, and now I cant see typed messages.. and the game is a tad quirky.. I think they need to roll back this update.

Aparently all you need to do to fix this is use the default skin.

Last of the 2.x's would have been 2.1.

There was 1.0b, 1.1b, 1.2b, 1.3b, 2.0b, 2.1b, 3.0b, 3.1b, v1.0 and currently at v1.1.

And not having .wads and available file structures = why the hell bother mapping.

well i just keep my old cs / dod and use the wads there and just copy the .bsp into steam cs / dod when im done

yeh, gorbachev, 2.1 that's right :smile:

was ages ago, and i barely played it :wink:

1.3b was my personal favourite version. 3.1 was good as well. Ah the good ol' days.

1.3b and 3.1b were my favourites. Personally v1.0 and v1.1 would be my favourites if they didn't have the bugs with the particle effects and the general lag that never used to exist.
