Well, looks like Battalion 1944 just got a competitor.

Eh rather have DoD, but 100 times better than Battalion 1944
So Battallion was basically a fan remake of CoD2, now this looks like it's just a fan remake of Day of Defeat. I mean, the map in the videos was just a straight up remake of a DoD map.
I'd say this looks a lot better than Battalion already
Oh my god, a fan remake of DoD, ive been waiting for this forever

Hah that Wehrmacht winning tune brings back a lot of memories. DoD was insanely fun.
oh jeez this really does look like a straight DoD remake, that map is like a 1:1 recreation
also has CoD WaW weapon sounds

It's kind of hard not to make a WW2 map NOT look similar to another WW2 map.
Ah the ye old Konnigratzer Marsch.

I don't know this for a fact, but the WaW weapon sounds could have been purchased from a free use sound pack. They might have bought the same one. Who knows.
I loved DoD, but I really wish there was something out there or coming out more in the spirit of Resistance and Liberation. Fucking loved that mod, fun as all hell.
[QUOTE=redBadger;49837985]It's kind of hard not to make a WW2 map NOT look similar to another WW2 map.[/QUOTE] I think you might want to get off your high horse, because the map in the trailer is pretty much a identical to a popular DoD map.
Also that's probably the most shallow statement i've seen on this site in a while.

But that is literally the same layout as a Day of Defeat map, they even recreated the trailer that Valve made to some degree.

I'm ok with that.
This looks like a remake of DOD:S
Which isn't a particularly good thing considering how boring DOD is and how quickly it died compared to other games

It is pretty easy to just copy the exact layout of a map from another game though.
This is feeling extremely iffy, lots of stolen material being shown in the trailers. Especially the map shown as other have pointed out; its literally a carbon copy of dod_donner.

I'm pretty sure that's intentional, I think they're trying to remake DoD.

Well lets just hope they've got the permission from Valve in that case
lol I hope so for them
This is giving me a Medal of honor airborne vibe.

Well yeah, most games get their sounds from stock libraries and such but I'm just pointing out something I noticed, mean't nothing bad by it.
It looks great but it seems so colorful, almost to the point that it would be distracting. Reminds me of TF2 for some reason.
I'd rather just have an MoH remake or something.
Fuck crosshairs, fucking spray and pray everywhere
guy is using an mp44 and there's literally no recoil.
EGO members already present in that game. Dear god.
I like the dod_donner remake but it still doesn't look very good. The animations look awful and that bazooka fired a panzerschreck rocket. Very standard and boring setting also.
Early days though so who knows...
Still looks way better than Battallion 44.

Not trying to be an ass by proving you wrong, but I figured both you and others would find it interesting regardless!
It's a shame it looks like they're going after DoD:S style of gameplay instead of DoD 1.3 style.
