VALVe’s MattBoone posted this in a thread labled “Beta Test Info” on the DoD Source Steam forums:

Welcome to the Day of Defeat: Source Beta forum. For the upcoming update, we’ll be running a short beta test period, open to anyone that owns Day of Defeat: Source.

Changes in this update:

- added Dod_Palermo, updated map based on Dod_Salerno by Insta
- added Steamworks features, including achievements and player avatars
- added Nemesis and Revenge
- added Freeze Cam
- friendly players no longer collide with each other
- many particle systems have been improved
- changed the algorithm for bullet spread to be more like the original Day of Defeat
- reduced Garand recoil
- View position is now adjusted when zoomed with rifles and sniper rifles to help with player visibility around corners

Planned changes not in this update:

- Per-player stats linked to Steam Community
- many map exploit fixes

We welcome any bug reports in this forum, or by email to me at matt@valvesoftware.com.

Wow…so curious to see what they’ve done with Salerno (formerly Railroad in the olden days). Reduced recoil on the Garand is great news to this virtual rifleman. Also, am I to understand freeze cam to be the screenshot feature that makes TF2’s screens so nice? If so, HUZZAH! Fragwagon rejoices!
