Day of Defeat: Source Is Coming
Yes, we know you knew that. But now it's coming soon.
by David Adams

February 22, 2005 - Along with the breakthrough of Half-Life 2, Valve promised its new engine would also power re-builds of classic Half-Life mods like Counter-Strike and Day of Defeat. We've been playing Counter-Strike: Source for months now, of course, but little has been said about the new version of Defeat, the WWII modification.

Today, Valve finally broke silence. The company announces that Day of Defeat: Source is now approaching beta, and the final version should be available "early this spring" via the Steam service.

As with Counter-Strike: Source, Valve is giving Day of Defeat a full make-over using all the tasty tricks of the Source engine. The battle in Western Europe will now feature advanced physics, completely new audio, enhanced effects, and updated maps. Two first screenshots give you a sense of the change.

Steam users will be able to order Day of Defeat: Source when it's released this spring. Gamers who ordered the Silver or Gold Half-Life 2 packages via Steam should receive Day of Defeat: Source automatically when it's available.

We expect to hear more on the new Day of Defeat in the coming weeks. Stay tuned.

All I can say is YAY!

Some of those pics look great. But I hope that some of those hand and weapon models are strictly beta versions. They look like they could use some refinement. But I've been waiting for this since it was announced. That's why I picked up the siver package.

deja vu? heh

Rumor has it that they are using the old hand and weapon models for now till they finish more maps.

Meh, doesn't look too hot. Call of Duty will still probably be better.

Forget DoD, I hope Brothers in Arms comes out soon.

I bought the silver package just so I could get DoD:S. I want to play this more than I wanted to play HL2.

No kidding. I thought it was going to be released simultaneously with HL2 (as CS:source was out before HL2 even) so this is great news.
I agree with those guns looking kinda out of place as well, hope they revamp those.
