Valve has announced that a major update to Day of Defeat: Source is currently in beta. The update will add support for Steamworks, which means you’ll be finding some significant additions to the game, including 51 achievements, detailed statistics in Steam Community, and a new map.
The new map, dod_Palermo, isn’t entirely new, as it’s a remix of a popular community map, dod_salerno. Other new features include a nemesis/revenge freeze cam like Team Fortress 2 has, as well as new graphical effects that TF2 added to Source.
Owners of DoD: Source can currently join the beta free of charge, whether you own a retail or Steam copy of the game. That seems like enough incentive to purchase the game if you don’t already own it, especially when you consider that it’s only $10.
