Talk about Valve having their Business model down PAT! Good for them really. I can truly respect this.

I wish they would add taunts to this game. I mean I know it's pointless for such a game, but I think the freeze cam won't actually look as good as it does in TF2. You know?

Anyway, I'm extremely excited for this update. Yay.

Dowloading now, but I think the realism might make some nice screenshots.

Also, I hate your Avatar. Just haven't had a chance to say so.

Can someone with DoD:S please tell me the total size of all it's GCF's? I was hoping to join in the free weekend but it's come at a bad time in my internet quota so if it's too big I'll have to give it a miss.
