Day of Defeat: Source Updated with New Map, Achievements, Other TF2 Features

May 23, 2008 11:41 AM

A beta update for Valve's mod-turned-retail title Day of Defeat: Source (PC) has been announced, bringing a number of new additions to the World War II multiplayer shooter.

Included in the update are 51 achievements, player avatar support and detailed player statistics, along with a Team Fortress 2-style nemesis-revenge freeze cam and new particle effects that came out of TF2's development.

The update also brings with it a new map, dod_Palermo, said to be "a remix of the most popular community map, dod_salerno."

The beta client is currently available to Day of Defeat owners via Valve's online delivery platform Steam.

      I paid $20. This is another game that became victim to watered down play and few official maps.

    Free updates for a game that didn't need to receive anything. Shut up.

      Ungrateful for expecting more than six official maps in an online only multiplayer gamne that I paid for?

      I can't trust Valve anymore to deliver content for their multiplayer games. It's that simple.
