woot!  It's finally out although with only 4 maps at release.


Day of Defeat: Source

It's like $15-$20 bucks if you don't have HL2: Silver or Gold editions.

Lemme get this straight... It's $20 "standalone" in working condition?

I don't have any of the HL games at all... not a big FPS type but at least there's action in those compared to what AH has become.

So $20 will buy it and I can play?

It needs HL2 to work, it's an addon.

That's what I figured. So it's really more like $60.

And it'll get major hackage, just like the free AA.

Oh well.

I think this is causing the confusion: "if you don't have HL2: Silver or Gold editions"

Silver and Gold editions includes the rights to download DoD free of charge when it is released, whereas the other editions doesn't include DoD.
People with bronze edition (or whatever the bulk edition is called) needs to buy DoD.

Having Punkbuster doesn't guarantee that hacks won't/can't be used.
Alot is up to the admins, how aggressively they react to the cheaters.

For example CS has been full of cheaters for a long time already, just because the bans are server specific and the cheaters doesn't risk loosing their CD key.

However I'd say AAO is fairly safe of cheaters, because the admins are far more aggressive against cheaters.
Also you can't just create a new account and go back to cheat in an instant (well, nobody tells veterans to play on low honor servers) - you need to first get some honor.
They've also threatened cheaters with legal cases, but I haven't heard has it really happened and would they really do it.

Oh yeah..  if you're going to buy DoD, buy straight away the HL2 silver edition (comes with DoD) instead of HL2 bronze + DoD; you'll save ten bucks.

Sorry Fishu forgot the [sarcasm] and [/sarcasm] tags.

I had to quit AAO because it was the worst hacked game I have ever seen. With PB.

Well, if people like me and few others are cheaters, then yes.
I do constantly hear from few guys how they've been called cheaters.
Few too many times I've been called as a cheater.

Therefore I really have to wonder if the cheaters are mostly just a result of imagination?

No it doesn't, you need to have Steam installed though.
