• Reduced maximum number of players on a server to 32



What the hell..

Awesome update. They fixed all of the particularly glaring bugs that have been bothering me, and they added the defense point bonus. Also, now I understand why semi-auto for the BAR and MP-44 seemed so useless.

cl_predict? what the hell is that?

[ultracooldom]

predicting the future, obviously its a cheat :)

1.3mb w/o DOD:s

[G'Bariel]

they should release more maps for DoD:S too

[DY357LX]

G'Bariel - Agreed. 4 maps get very boring very quickly.

I didn't like DoD too much, but DoD:S is really fun.

I don't understand why they'd do this.

16 players on dod_flash it's allready 6 too many

Sadly the maps they released are very small and without SDK the custom comunity can't start make new ones.

I played in this tournament ( http://dod.battleforeurope.com/ ) for ages but now it's kinda halted because lack of maps

Interesting funness. Well time to go update once again. And good thing they got rid of the cl_predit, that was annoying at times.

But if server admins want to run 40 player games, they should be allowed to. They paid for the game, they're paying for the server, they should be able to do whatever they want with it as long as it's not interfering with others, and running a 33+ player server doesn't hurt anyone.

Why don't they examine CS:Source ? As far as I can see, even without those bugfixes to DOD, CSS STILL had way more problems with the netcode. I'm sorry, but this is a joke, pure and simple, CSS has been abandoned, no one, not even Valve can deny that...
