All of this contributes to a constant sense of tension as you explore streets and enter the buildings that are decorated with a realistic amount of furniture and clutter. You never know which window or corner may be harboring a threat. Anywhere you turn, an enemy might be lying in wait, aiming at you from an elevated window or a dark doorway. You'll appreciate the ability to move quickly though, because the sprawling levels are chock-full of buildings, as well as alleyways and dark passageways, which can be entered.
A sprint button is available, which is limited by a fatigue bar, but using it lets you move at what seems like lightning speed.
Also adding to the general speed of the game is that your default run speed is fairly fast already. The ability to quickly capture a flag in Day of Defeat: Source contributes to the surprisingly quick pace. Most of the flags on any given map can be captured just by touching them, but some points require a couple of players to sit on the flag for a brief period of time. If one team ever gains control of all five points at once, big points are awarded to that team, and the round is reset with each team returning to its spawn site. Your team can gain points by killing members of the other team, or capturing and holding one of the objective flags. Five capture points are scattered across the level. In each of the initial maps, the goal is the same. There are usually multiple ways to approach any given objective, and once you get there, you're usually open to attack from different angles and elevations. At least the routes that you can run on the maps are well-designed and flexible for the most part. If Counter-Strike: Source is any indication, Valve will follow through at some point. Yes, currently Day of Defeat: Source only offers four official maps to play on, but Valve has promised that more are on the way.
You'll play as either the Americans or the Germans on four different maps. Like its predecessor, Day of Defeat: Source focuses strictly on close-quarters infantry combat. Now Playing: Day of Defeat: Source Video Review By clicking 'enter', you agree to GameSpot's
