dod source, will it look great ?

[Newbie's Journey]

Since there's not a section for dod source, i post this thread here even it's not totally hl2 related.

I read on the front page that dod source will be 95% straight port. I had played dod which is not bad, i don't dare to expect major change in gameplay, but will dod source look as great as css, or will it just look like hl source ?

It will be 95% dod.

So it will look like dod.

 

[genocide604]

It will be the CS:S is to cs1.6... Look better and have cool physics and stuff.. i dont like how its not included in bronze pack tho..

If you have seen the tiny screenshot, you will see that it is essentially HL:S.

 

[Maxi]

And from what they said, it will look like the normal HL ONE dod.

I think you are misinterpreting it, the 95% refers to gameplay features, not graphics. It will be exactly like CS:S for the most part i think (major graphic update, little to no gameplay changes) but I'm sure they will be updating and working on it.

 

[Maxi]

It will not change graphicly. THEY HAVE SAID SO IN THE FREEKING PAST!

 

[kmack]

You are wrong, counter strike source is a port, and the same will go for DOD, its the same game, but the graphics have been updated to the standard of HL2. You don't honestly believe they are gonna release DOD with HL1 graphic and call it DOD: Source do you? If that were the case, it would not take this long don't you think? The 5% that they claim isnt a direct port is probably small issues (things like brand new character models instead of porting the old ones) but we won't know for sure until they A. Release more info (and if we know them....) or B. It comes out. But i think we can rest assured that it will have a major graphical overhaul, much the way CS: source did.

They say they are working on the maps and models..

 

[Maxi]

Meh... I give up.

 

[ericlee88]

i probably won't look as good as css or hl2.

 

[kmack]

Not as good as HL2, but it will definatly be up there with CS:S, especially with the extra time they are putting into it. We can dream can't we =D

 

[JiMbOb]

no it wont straight port is what halflife:source is like. do you think thats as good as cs:s?

 

[PvtRyan]

Meh... I give up.

You should, since they already said in a different interview that they're going to redo all art.

The Source Conversions forum is where you discuss DOD:Source.

Moved.

Incidentally, MaxiKana, what they've most recently said about the artwork is:

Model Genius Jakob Jungels is really taking advantage of Source and creating some terrific artwork. Hammer Guru's Iikka Karanen and Tim Holt are working their magic on a few of the maps.

That would imply that most of the artwork is being re-done.

of course it will be!!! Just look at CS : Source...
