CS:Source Troubles, Rejoice

Day of Defeat: Source and Source Engine Updates Available
September 27, 2005, 7:09 pm · Alfred Reynolds

Updates to Day of Defeat: Source and the Source Engine have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The specific changes include:

Source Engine

Fixed some video cards being incorrectly set to DX9 when they should have been DX8. This would cause a significant performance problem for affected hardware

Changed refresh behavior of server browser. Old behavior was generating too much traffic when list was not open

Fixed bug where VAC would sometimes hold onto .dlls after a game had been shut down completely

Fixed a crash which could sometimes occur immediately after launching a game



Day of Defeat: Source

Added the default mapcycle.txt to servers running Day of Defeat: Source

Fixed crash bug when using %s in your player name


Source Dedicated Server

Fixed bug in dedicated server engine that incorrectly displayed their anti-cheat status (servers were showing as insecure, but were running in secure mode)

You're constantly respawning, so the battles are continuous with no major downtime like in CS. You choose kits, instead of buying your gear. And your objectives are usually flags that need to be captured, sometimes with more than one person to capture it. You can lay prone for accuracy. You can mount your machine gun to a window sill or lay prone and use the bipod if you want to hit something. Try using a MG without deploying it properly and the recoil will just have you shooting the sky... The player movement is much like CS with the exception of the ability to sprint and "get tired" from sprinting/jumping.

I think it's much better than CounterStrike.

Thats only because you cant get shot by an AT missle out of nowhere when you are taking a flag . or get blowen up by c4 planted and a guy waiting on the other end to blow you up.
