HenneApr 17, 2007I play dod since it was a free beta half-life mod and with dod-source it is still, one of the best multiplayer games out there!

EricB.Apr 17, 2007This is an awesome game no doubt!

AndyH.Jun 10, 2007Great graphics and extremely realistic type of gameplay. The best WWII shooter in my opinion.

Dua|ity9thRangersJun 24, 2007Excellently paced world war 2 shooter, kicks the crap out of CoD2. Minor bugs pop up from time to time more associated with the Source game engine than DoD itself. I just wish there were more maps but theres always a very active community creating more and more everyday! Theres no better place to kill some time than a Day of Defeat Source server, come and play you'll love it!!

RobertoG.Jun 2, 2007The best WWII on-line game I've ever played!
-
-
ShaunM.Jun 5, 2007Valve are always raising the bar on how good games should be, and yet again, they have done it. Superb graphical detail and the oh so beautiful source engine. Full marks here.
-
-
JaredP.Jul 23, 2007Major graphical improvement over DOD. Great Game! Fun to play.
-
-
RyanC.Jul 29, 2007It has to be the best source shooter ever, it beats counter strike source in all aspects
-
-
NovsekN.Jul 8, 2007The best game I ever played!

PavelS.Aug 1, 2007Great multiplayer game, good physical model and low claim on hardware.

LukeS.Aug 2, 2007Addictive and intense, once you start playin its hard to stop.

SirlollododFeb 2, 2008THE WW2 war game online! It's a real, fantastic simulation of WW2. Graphics is very good, as well the phisyx effect. Need just 10$ to buy it, but it's worth more!!! Buy it if you like war game FPS
-
-
LuizM.Feb 5, 2008An underestimated game, far better then what the general reviews say! Amazing game, fun, and much more balanced then Counter-Strike.
-
-
VincentH.Mar 11, 2008Great game that is better to play if you like mods.
-
-
AlexanderS.Apr 13, 2008This is one of the best FPSs i have ever played i love the hearing the sound of bullets wizz past you while your sprinting to try and take a flag and not die.
-
-
NicolaiE.Apr 17, 2008Hell of a nice game! The best game of all!
-
-
MaslabMay 19, 2008Good graphics, and amazing fun. Find the right server, and you can have loads of fun on user created content. Balanced classes and limitations keep the game fun and flowing. Does suffer a bit from repetitiveness and overpowered weapons. Could definitely use some updates to balance those, but still great fun.
-
-
RobertC.May 4, 2008DOD is the best game i have ever played. No game compares! Good job Valve!
-
-
PabloA.May 7, 2008Best shooter game.

KevinWJul 30, 2008This is the best game ever made, although I am not so sure about the update. It has great graphics, and a great gameplay. I hope you all enjoy this game as much as I do!
-
-
JimmyA.Jul 6, 2008Enjoyable game to play when you want something different from source.
-
-
MarrsJ.Aug 4, 2008This game rocks forever, 2nd world war épic battles! Realistics actions.
-
-
ErnieS.Sep 18, 2008I think this is a GREAT game really exciting if you think otherwise I think you just don't know how to play the game properly!

HudsonJNov 3, 2009Great community all the people i have meet have been fun to play with nice.

BrainLJan 13, 2010THIS GAME IS AWESOME!!! Awesome Multiplayer! I like what the game is based of WWll. I love shooting Nazis ^^
-
-
MattT.Nov 12, 2005Atmospheric for a multiplayerwith great background noise, you dont have to be a geek on this 24/7 to stand a chance like counter strike, as it seems to reward you for cunning. Within seconds ur in ww2 and having fun, which is what it's all about. Graohics are good and it will be added to in time, so things too look forward too. GREAT!
-
-
SamP.Oct 1, 2006Its awesome ww2 action. Better than moh. DOD:source is something you want!
-
-
HollowTipzOct 11, 2006DOD has always been a favorite, now the Source took it to a much higher level, its sick!
-
-
MichalB.Mar 24, 2006Team based combat at its best!! , this is about as good as it gets until tfc2 comes out!

AlexH.May 11, 2006This game is amazing- The excellent gameplay you'll find in Day of Defeat combined with the superior graphics of the Source Engine- An easy 10!
-
-
DaveN.May 12, 2006Not the best game i seem to die to fast and it doesnt make it that fun , but the graphics are awsome and it is really realistic.
-
-
DavidT,May 10, 2006A fun game, which I prefer more then the origianal, it has great graphics and, in my opinion, great gameplay. The only problem I have is the shortage of maps.
-
-
matty_gMay 10, 2006The best WWII-shooter out there, hands down.
-
-
BrunoM.May 14, 2006Que du bonheur, on ne s'ennuie jamais sauf quand c'a deconnecte.
-
-
WilfredoR.May 14, 2006Simply amazing. The physics in this game are unbelievable and the gameplay is fast-paced and fun, definitly the best game on steam right now.
-
-
JasonH.May 15, 2006This is my Favorite game. I don't know why but I lose hours and hours playing this gem! The graphic improvement from the prior version is awesome. All in all Its pace and gameplay are better than any other shooter I have played.
-
-
grandoldmanoutlawsMay 16, 2006I'll never go playing a other game. Not expensive and you can go online 24/7 and play and play. If you are tired of playing the in same towns just look for custom maps.
-
-
[Anonymous]May 16, 2006Some more maps and the game would have been marked with 8.5/9.
-
-
KarlB.May 16, 2006Fast and fun. Voice chat not just a plus, but necessary. Great communities if you can find them. Small balancing issues on maps, needs a full server for best results. I suggest looking for 30+ slot servers only.
-
-
LegendaryG.May 19, 2006The best source engine game available. Much better gameplay, more fair and balanced than any source engine game. Thus far the best the engine has to offer.
-
-
DominikE.May 21, 2006It's the best game, I've ever played!
-
-
RoygerA.May 22, 2006Best teamwork oriented game i've played by far, along with killer graphics, and realistic sound quality.
-
-
MatthewV.May 22, 2006Excellent game, more challenging then CS:Source and HL2: Deathmatch.
-
-
GenralC.May 23, 2006Very addictive. Gameplay is nxt to or close to Halo. I just wish they had a free-for-all.
-
-
RobertoB.May 25, 2006Fantastic game!

GeoffH.May 6, 2006For some reason this game never gets boring. I think the player community (not much hacking at all) keeps this game as fun as it is. I own many FPS's, but this is my favorite.
-
-
AdamM..May 9, 2006How does this get a worse rating than Red Orchestra? This game is by far the best WWII game on the market! I will never play any other WWII game, multiplayer or singleplayer! Nothing can compare to the excellent graphics, sounds, weapons, and realism in general.
-
-
LukasS.Jun 13, 2006One of the best Games I've ever played. I'm fascinated!
-
-
VinsA.Jun 15, 2006The best netgame i ever seen! Really, lot's of action and suspens. The better game of Valve coporation!
-
-
PaulR.Jun 16, 2006excellent: thought nothing would beat the first dod but this version kills it hands tied behind back.
-
-
KitW.Jun 22, 2006Excellent on-line game ... involving for everyone from beginners to experts. Now my most played game and therefore exceptional value for money. highly recommended.
-
-
JaapH.Jun 25, 2006Great game, though I'm laming FPS The only negative point is that you really need to play on a server with the MG's & snipers limited, because when team is losing they all go start laming with snipers or mg's
-
-
ChrisH.Jun 28, 2006Great game. Just barely lives up to the original, but still a great play. Nice to see them release regular updates for the game, adding new maps and game content for free unlike some other games. Great team based play, a good team strategy greatly helps, and the game is usually most fun to play with groups like clans or guilds.
-
-
JohnP.Jun 4, 2006awesome game many great features I love to throw nadse back.
-
-
TimF.Jun 5, 2006One of the more underrated FPS's in my opinion, it has good balance with the player classes. It doesn't really favor being a sniper or a machine gunner, or assault classes by giving them more special abilities. I also like the fact that you respawn pretty quickly too.
-
-
JamesE.Jul 10, 2006Excelent gfx, awesome gameplay. You need your team to win. Truly the most realistic WWII game i've ever got my hands on.
-
-
NovsekN.Jul 10, 2006The best game I ever played!
-
-
MattY.Jul 10, 2006I own counter strike source and then i played Day of Defeat source on the free weekend and it is soo much better than css.
-
-
AlbertoJul 12, 2006this is the best multiplayer game based on the WWII, i have also played CoD multiplyaer but DoD:S is really better for a lot of aspects.
-
-
RazerJul 12, 2006One of the best games ever releaed via steam. I like it more than Counterstrike.
-
-
DarkL.Jul 13, 2006c'est le meilleur tout simplement the best game on line.
-
-
MTRJul 14, 2006This game is da coolest online action i;ve ever seen, there are just sometimes problem in steam.exe connection. Also, most servers are empty so, it's hard to settle down in this game.
-
-
DarnhardJul 15, 2006Realistic , fast and just damm good.
-
-
BradC.Jul 19, 2006Good game i like WW2 games and this is one of the best i have played i don't know what elias o is talking about.

SergeiN.Jul 7, 2006DoD was the best WWII game I have ever played, and when DoD:S was released using the new source engine, wow it blew me away, it's much better then any of the WWII games on the market right, I even just tried Red Orchestra, and wow that game sucks so much compared to this, graphics, gameplay, sound and all.
-
-
CrazyManJul 8, 2006Awesome game, great graphics, sounds. could be a bit better with more maps, but the game is so great I still play it alot. I would recommed DoD: Source over Counter Strike: Source anyday.
-
-
MikefatAug 11, 2006Very good game very realistic and fun no problems with it ran fine just a good game over all
-
-
ThomasR.Aug 11, 2006Fantastic gamr but I can just not seem to get hooked into it, therefor it looses 2 marks.
-
-
MikeK.Aug 17, 2006Good game with exelent physics and notbad grafics!

-
PeterG.Aug 24, 2006This game it good, and for peaople who say this game should be more realiticly paced, it would take 5 to 12 days to take a village like the one in kalt. 12 friggin days of sittin on a crappy chair in yer 2 bot 9" moniter (depending opun how awsome you are) By the way, kalt means "cold" in german.
-
-
AlexM.Aug 28, 2006Brilliant! DoD is superior to other WW2 games in my opinion. Great gameplay and so damn smooth! A must buy.
-
-
SeanD.Sep 11, 2006Day of Defeat is an awsome game for what you pay it has thrilling graphics, and being able to shoot an enemy through thin cover has never been cooler!
-
-
BillB.Sep 1, 2006This game would be a 10 if the player could Lean left and right and scrool the weapons without the need to left click on them. This would make a Huge Difference in the gameplay.
-
-
AlexD.Sep 17, 2006OMG! The best War Warld II Game EVER!

SimonW.Nov 10, 2007Fluid addictive gameplay, highly recommended stress busting (mostly) game.
-
-
KevinR.Jan 16, 2007This game has been one of the best online World War II games around since its inception back in the late 90's. After so many years and some MAJOR game updates and changes to play style it still provides many hours of enjoyment.
-
-
A.NonymousNov 6, 2007Despite lacking depth, its probably one of the most atmospheric WWII shooters out. Unlike its slow-paced sister Counter-Strike, DoD offers fast-paced, hardcore combat. Bullets whiz, men fall and grenades explode around you. Truly atmospheric. The guns may be have a high recoil, but this is more of a tactical balance than a problem. You can't just gun 'n' run.
-
-
SK.Oct 23, 2007OMG!!!! This game is the bomb... the graphics are way good, the gameplay is good...!! Hectic game!! Could spend 6 hours straight playing this game and u would't get bored.

Awards & Rankings
-
I expect to be playing DoD a lot more than "Couterstrike: Source"... I recommend DoD:S to the multiplayer action crowd, but don't come crying to me when things start getting stale.
-
While the game still needs some patching, and is unfortunately not DoD as we know it, this is still an absolutely fantastic package; those after a new multiplayer shooter can’t really go wrong with this one. Oh, and expect this score to go up over time as Valve patches out various problems.
-
While a lack of maps cuts into the game's value somewhat, Day of Defeat: Source still offers a satisfying and exciting experience for those who just can't get enough of World War II.
