DOD: Source begins pre-loading

[ZenMunky]

I think i know what wiggles on about, will have a test tonight after preload...

[wiggle987]

I gave it a go, but it didn't work.

[Athlete{UK}]

Sorry wiggle but we are now removing you from the staff.

The reason being you are a h4x0rs and a bad influence on the lopers community!

[wiggle987]

Ze hax!

[9f1062f623f9]

Hurrr!

[wiggle987]

Well from looking through the gcf filenames it's apparent that there is more than just one player model for each team (which quite a few people were worrying about)

[serpent666]

...Serpent is pulling your legs.

day of defeat source.gcf, 612 MB, once pre-loaded is encrypted.

You can extract the content but any of the content, including maps and text files, will still be locked.

i honestly wasent pulling your leg, when they ment encryption, i just thought it was the bloody gcf file, but the main files like gameinfo.txt motd.txt,etc are encrypted. unless someone knows what encryption they are, than its impossible.

what i was gona do anyway is just download one of the emporio patches and use the launcher.exe & launcher.ini to work it... no such luck now though

[ShaDoW]

Duh, even if you get past the encryption you will need 999999mb ram to run DoD: Source.

Another one of Steam's fail safe mechanisms. Quite ingenious.

[Party Boy]

Is this the actual install of the game? Or will we have to do that annoying update thingy or what? Also if its already installed then cant people hack and make it playable? Hmmmmmmm.........

[Ale]

i will say this i quite odd, i just started the pre-load and 2 min after it says that im 81.3 % done with a 1024/128 connection

[p1nkfl0yd1an]

It's only like a weekish away so meh, i bought it and preloaded now i'll just be playing CS:S till DoD goes. Dod > CS

[Avtraz]

Damn, 20$!

My preload started at 82%...

[Jman]

taking so long... went to 80% now it's slow, It's now at 89%
Is DOD:S free for collectors edition-buyers?

[serpent666]

i have no idea, i bought the australian collecters edition from harvey norman (if there is different editions for countries)

50% say yes and 50% say no, to getting it.

so im pretty confused.

[Hyp-R]

Hmm. I don't know why but, I have a feeling that DoD might just suck completly.

I really liked the origional, but i have a gut feelign that source isnt goign to be that great
