That's why I voted no. The only way I can see this happening is if a current server is switched over. I think she provides alot already not just in the servers but maintaining them aswell.

That's why I chose to give back to the community what it gave me. Almost 2 years of fun.

How busy is the TS server. Most of the time I look its empty. If that one is not all that busy maybe GRITS should think about switching that one.

Course this is all up to her. I'm not voting yes or no on this because I doubt I will play dod.

Ok, since we were talking about it, I went on steam and played DoD for the first time, that is much more like firearms than cs, just better. I had alot of fun and the explosions and flying debris were very real. I think I just found my other game. You definitely have to specialize more than cs. Certain weapons can't really be used on the run.

I have to admit I am a bit disappointed in the turn out on the TS server it is a lot of fun...I will make a decision after some more input. Have you guys tried The Specialist? It is a different type of game and I love variety...;)

I play DoD more than CS. If any of you are history buffs....this is the game.
Love the realism and the sound effects.

If you use the thompson, or the (forget what its called the axis equivelant basically) you can do it rambo style if you are good enough. I remember liking it better then cs, but cs is really fun now. I'll play whatever.

I switch back and forth but basically I'll play DoD if the holdout's server is empty, or if I'm in the mood for it. DoD is an awesome game because of the realism, and that it does require more strategy and holding positions and such, basically because the main rifles (mauser and garand) are one shot kills, like the sniper rifles, sniping is more difficult (hard to cheese it and easy to avoid), and you can set up machine gun positions.

It's an awesome game, and since steam I've been able to play it again... I couldn't with WON because with anything other than ricochet, my comp liked to freeze up or be very choppy. Now with STEAM both CS and DoD are perfectly smooth under openGL.

I love being an MG, the only problem I found is teammates will try to be faster than you when FF is on, and you end up looking like the bad guy...

I used to play DoD alot back in the day 2001-2002. I don't play it as much now, but I do play a little bit every now and then. I would play more if Grits makes the switch.

I would love to see a dod server, but I would rather keep the TS. I know I'm alone when I say that. The TS server would do better if it was more stable and had admin, I would play there all the time so would my clan members. We are popular guys in the comm so people would join us. I know that this place has gone CS crazy, so I understand why nothin has happened to the TS server. I alone on this so do what yall want.;)

I am with Quick on this one, If the TS server was stable I would play more but when I log on it crashes after about 2 mins of play so it doesnt keep my interest.

different maps have different tasks. Most are a capture the flag thing. Once your side gets
all the flags...you win the round. Others are a perform some task for your team...like blow up
the tanks for the British side or steal the documents for the German side. 2 other maps I play
are a big combo of stuff like blowing up 5 different targets for the Allies side with sachel charges
and the Germans try to stop you. Each map is unique in its mission. You usually get a mission
description when you join a side.

As to the keys...you need to see what the defaults are and make any changes. One for sure is
the 'prone' key which lets you lay down to shoot and also the 'sprint' key which eats up your
stamana however.

I like TS. I struggle at DoD. However, of the two, I'd rather go with DoD as it's being developed and will be for the forseeable future. TS isn't being. There is no roadmap with it, and the people have said that they want a break. It isn't going to change at all for quite some time.

using netniv's logic, you should probably convert the ricochet servers to dod too since ricochet hasn't been developed in a long ass time. the ts people don't make any money on their mod like the dod folks, so i think it's understandable that they want a break....they've got lives and bills to pay.

anyways, i don't care too much for either game. ts is annoying with the lame slo-mo shit and i get a low fps on dod.

question! is DoD a co-op thing. .all human players on a team vs enemy ai?? or is it a cs choose a team thing?

it's a 'cs choose a team thing'.

I find it much less frusturating then CS, because if you die, you are back in the action in another 10 seconds at the most.

I think that sometimes depends on the config/map... I swear I remember having to sit out... but then that comes from my early DoD playing when I remember very little about it. Certainly of late, with the capture the flag maps you are back in the action pretty quick... are there any other types of missions that capture the flag with dod ?

I never remember having that problem where i had to sit out for extended periods of time. The diffrent types of maps usually are where you have to blow up a certain thing, and thats just camping an objective with 2 people untill it is complete. Its quite similar to some flags on some maps where it takes two people to take control over it.
