Day of Defeat Source and Dystopia Servers

Tactical Gamer is pleased to announce the start of our provisioning efforts for two new game servers. The order has been placed for a new server that will be hosting both Day of Defeat Source and Dystopia. Two new games that our supporting members are showing great interest in.

Day of Defeat Source is a re-make of the popular Day of Defeat mod for the original Half-Life engine. It is a World War II based FPS with objectives similar to other FPS games. It was widely popular while run under the Half-Life engine and we expect it to be equally as popular now that it has been migrated over to the new Source engine.

Dystopia is a futuristic game also running under the Source engine with a very unique environment and challenging objectives. Dystopia offers two different realms in which the game is played. A traditional FPS realm often termed "meat-space" and a virtual reality realm in which players navigate a TRON-like wire-frame environment to complete complementary objectives that support those playing in the meat-space realm.

With the addition of these two new games, I am also pleased to announce the appointment of Random Guy as the new Game Officer for Day of Defeat Source. Random Guy has been with TG for as long as I can possibly remember and has been a strong contributor and supporter of our community. Please join with me in extending a warm welcome to Random in this new role as Game Officer.

A game officer for Dystopia has not yet been named, but several candidates are currently being evaluated.

A complete forum structure will be created for both of these games over the next couple of days, so be prepared for things to shift around a little bit.

Darkilla: In short, NS is pretty much really fast chess. With guns. Apophis: I haven't seen anyone say that SM's are better than non-SMs. Nordbomber: This is THE first server I've seen where either side can comeback from out of seemingly nowhere with the right teamwork. en4rcment: I have NEVER experienced the type of gameplay that I have found here. Nightly I am amazed at the personalities and gaming talent. Root: Welcome to TG. Feel free to punctuate your sentences correctly. Monkerz: Its gonna take all my skills to beat those boys off in the future.

Congratulations to Random Guy on becoming GO (great choice that), and big thanks to Apophis for giving me 2 more reasons not to grab my BF2 disk.
