Hey guys i dunno about all of you but even after years of playing DoD Source im still used to some things from the original DoD, mostly the bayonet for the 98k and i really miss the FG-42.

So what do you miss the most from the original DoD?
 
I miss everything.... :crying:

...except the hit boxes :facewall:
 
I miss the bayonet on the k98 and the 1 hit kills no matter what part of the body with k98
 
I miss:
Bayonet
Sniper dynamics
Not knowing where you were killed from like INS is now
Caen (best map ever)
grenade dynamics of the game
And a few of the weapon classes I just dont remember anymore. There was a semi auto rifle for axis and a semi auto sniper for axis too. And the carbine for allies i yearn for that again. Grease gun used to rule all. So basically I feel it was a bit of a better game.
 
FPS Banana has an awesome greas gun skin guys, its as close to the real thing as it gets. I recommend getting it, its all i use.
 
1. Being able to deploy the BAR
2. The carbine class
3. The paratrooper models
4. The german para weapons (auto sniper rifle etc.)
5. The British class and all their weapons
6. So so so many great dod maps that werent made source.

Why would valve make dod2 with drastically less content than dod1? it doesnt make any sense.
 
I miss the melee abilities of the rifles deployabe bar 10 ROUND SNIPER!!! revolver sidearm mg34 m1 carbine as its own class the grease gun german gewehr 42 (semi auto rifle) practically all the content and the maps
like the one with the glider radio radar with german and american paratroops also caen WHY IS IT ALL GONE:facewall::facewall::facewall::facewall:
If anyone wants to play old dod i get one it everyonce and a while just friend me and we shall bask in the good ol days of DoD
 
The bayonet and the Geweher 43 sniper rifle are what I miss most. That and the bandage mechanic.
 
I miss...
- how you used to be able to bandage yourself instead of having to call out medic.
- the rocket could blow up certain sides of buildings or sandbags.
- Icons over your teammates heads ( i know you can turn it off now but still).
- the use of real grenades for the riflemen classes (the axis had four!).
- the old Kalt because the new one just doesn't feel the same.
- the wider variety of maps.
- The official DoD website had some promising future updates (most of them never came through such as the flamethrower class).

I'll think of more later.
 
its been a looong time since i played, but i miss the map cherbourg (i think this is the one im thinking of)

I do bandaging and just the general feel of the game.

Honestly, what I truly truly miss the most... the crosshair (and the skill needed for aiming)
