Any friendly players who are killed during this time join the original player and re-spawn together as the next wave of troops. If the player dies, in order to re-spawn they must wait for "reinforcements" to arrive, which usually takes up to fifteen seconds.
Once a class is chosen the player spawns at a predesignated point on the map, and must battle for control of the objectives. The player may choose to select "random" and let the computer choose a class from the remaining classes with open spots. Some servers will limit the available number of player slots for each class, usually to prevent overuse of sniper rifles or machine guns. After this, they choose a class available classes being: Rifleman, Assault, Support, Sniper, Machine Gunner or Rocket. Upon entering a server, the player chooses a team to play for - either the US Army or the Wehrmacht. Some of this technology is meant to convey period cinema, while others, such as high dynamic range, were meant to simulate how the human eye works.
The effects include motion blur, depth of field, film grain and color correction. Other technologies added post-release include effects Valve are to add to the game to make it look closer to a World War II era film. Day of Defeat: Source was the first game implemented with their new high dynamic range lighting, with other Source titles later following suit. With the Source engine's modularity and the Steam platform's distribution technology, Day of Defeat offers many technologies that had not yet been seen in games upon its release. Indeed, the release went so well that players soon found every server full, and only poorly-configured and laggy listen servers with free slots. Unlike Half-Life 2, the game's release on Steam went smoothly, with large IRC parties and live radio shows organized by fans adding to the sense of anticipation. Day of Defeat: Source was released in retail as a Stand-Alone Product for $19.99 USD.
