I like Day of Defeat and still play it. I still won't play as a German, even though they have the better equipment, (stick grenades and MG42). Of course the solution is to drop your weapon (press G) and pick up the one your opponent will no longer be needing.

This was absolutely essential if you were stuck playing a British soldier (Bren machine guns, bolt-action Enfield rifles, and Sten 'grease gun' submachine guns that were the military equivalent of the 'zip guns' used by street gangs).

Counterstrike was interesting, but the game is very skirmish oriented, with a time limit on many missions. In untimed missions, Day of Defeat can take over a half hour until one side wins.
