Valve is saying that we can preload Day Of Defeat: Source for free. And starting on Friday 12 Noon PST it will be unlocked for a weekend of free play.

Cool!

Can't complain too much, we did have it for free after all ;)

I have DoD preloaded now too. Too bad mods like this are no longer free. Wonder if I can get around it expiring after the weekend. :D

Well, if it works to connect to the server here, I'll be on DoD (non custom maps) at server.campquake.net

Finding the time to do so is questionable. :)

Hehe, I was actually one of the many players on the weekend whom played for free.

After I realize it was that good and the differences from the non-source one, I got my copy the next day :D

Valve's marketing wins again! hehe

glad you enjoy it.

I have trouble getting into DoD, the weapons just don't work well for me -- but its always fun to jump in a game with KrazyDave and follow him around, letting him do all the work :twisted:

lol - thats how I feel with CoD!
I guess I hold my own there also, but I definately prefer the source engine over the CoD engine.
I just can't get over how all the players run like they have a stick up their yahoo... lol!
