Change the extension on the sounds.dat file in the defcon base folder to .zip, then extract the sound files with winrar.

Been too busy playing Defcon to post here.
This is the bestest best RTS game in the history of good RTS Games.
Its just so much Dammed fun. Positioning Units and Buildings. Moving said units to within launch range of the nearest large city. Commiting Firey Nuclear Genocide with said units. You get my picture.
Only playing with the Demo at the moment, just working out the best way to send them money.
Boxed copy? Steam? Will it come out in the shops?
Would you like to play a Game of Global ThermoNuclear war?

There are a number of games in history that make a lot from a little.
But in a day of multi-CD games, Introversion is continuing the tradition. See Uplink for another great example

typical hyped game scenario:
your enemy has used all his nukes. Your subs are on the coast, just off his capital city.

ICBM Launch mode

suddenly, weapons fire.
pop goes one sub

****!
battleship fleet!

cancel ICBM launches
retreat remaining 3 subs, screaming 'AHHHHHH'

relocate to other side of continent.
launch ICBMs

no BS fleet

BOOOM BYEBYE EAST COAST OF AFRICA

is it really worth buying it ? I mean the demo seems pretty complete, you can have full games vs the cpu etc.
what does the full game has that is very important and you dont get in demo ?
PS. Fun game, though I wouldnt go as far as saying its exceptional or the best RTS or any of this overhyped quotes. -----------------------------------------------

The full game lets you pick all the various options, but most importantly, lets you play with up to 6 players.
2 player games get quite boring after a while.

I had a look at the different options and I decided that paying via paypal and then the direct FTP download as opposed to Steam (Which I hate with a furious burning passion, WHY THE HELL can't I play my copy of HL2 which I actually bought when people who have copied and *****ed versions can play all they like) which sometimes has problems with e-mails. I paid the extra ú2 to have a boxed copy sent to me too, definately worth it.

Had the same problem with steam too. I solved it though by downloading from introversion's own link and then mailing Steam to tell them to refund me for their crappy service. It's pretty poor that the Introversion support page has a bold type link for Steam problems referring to Steam's own troubleshooting page, and if you search that for Defcon you get ... 0 results The Defcon forums probably have more info.
The game itself though - loving it. So simple to pick up but so much possibility for tactics to make it really tense in the endgame

If you're having auth problems, go into the options and clear your key, then quit the game, quit steam, restart. If it doesn't auth, do it again until it does.
It only took me one retry and now it works every time.

That's supposed to be half the point. This is not happy Warcraft funtime, a good 6 player game will feature at least a half a billion dead. It should be more really, any nuke attacks on India and China would result in a charnel house.
It's fun and I'll probably register a copy for myself as a birthday present (abusing credit cards FTW!)
Am I the only one who's annoyed at the fact that Oceania got left out as a side, though?

I highly recommned this game to anyone.
Even if you don't want to spend money on games right now. Download the demo. You can partipate in some matches and watch big 6 game ones.
I hope it stays that way cos I really think this game could hit leagues and people could spectate via the game client itself. --------------

God, for the last 24 - 25 hors i've been just playing against the one AI player and beating him senseless.
Then I set up a server called "EvE online".
PVP in defcon is just gleeful, so much is constantly going on.
And secretly moving 50 ICBM's into the north pacific and then Nuking the holy living **** out of Moscow, St petersburg and every other little town and city in russia.

Come join and get some games going.

You know, I'm normally all for games where lots of stuff blows up, but, TBH, nuclear warfare and the utter annihilation of the human race is where I draw the line. No one should ever become inured to such things - the risk is too great. -Wrayeth

Its a Game?
Anyway, Global Thermonuclear war is a great laugh.

Yes, this is my girlfriends take on it too.
But you, and she, seem to forget that as gamers we are completely clear on the boundary between games and reality. Something the gutter press are incapable of grasping.
Do you not feel the same way about EVE? The backstory has millions dying in planetary bombardments. Every ship that blows up also kills 1000's of non-cloned ships crew. How about 1st-person shooters set in realistic war zones? Ghost Recon? What about post-apocalyptic RPGs like Fallout?
Humour is a powerful coping mechanism. If we can laugh at something the fear, that could otherwise overwhelm us, can be defused. Personally I find playing Defcon hilarious

Go play Fallout, then come back and try to tell me that it doesnt at least look even a little bit fun.

OMFG Fallout & Fallout II ftw (forget that other fallout spinoff crap).
Those have to be my favorite games of ALL time. Bethesda, who developed the Elder Scrolls games including the last Oblivion, actually have the rights to the Fallout franchise (except a Fallout MMORPG, which Interplay still owns rights to), and are actually working on Fallout III as we speak. I think they will make a masterpiece, especially considering how much I enjoyed Oblivion and it's full range of **** to do. They better too... considering how crazy and anal the fallout fanbase is 
As for DEFCON... I love it. I played the demo once, and bought it outright. These couple guys who developed this game along with the one other marketer involved - definitely deserve my 17 bucks. To all you jackasses who want to pirate the game or key - it's because of *******s like you that keep independent developers down, and good SOLID risky games from being released.
My hat is off to them, I'm ordering another boxed copy for my bro in the Air Force, and another for my gf so I can nuke her to hell and enjoy every second of it!
"Peace"! <----- (hahahah) Regarding EVE Online... People really do seem to want something beautiful but unforgiving.

I don't have a clue about what this game is like, but heck, considering these guys made Darwinia, I think I'll buy it when I get home.
Especially since it's multiplayer. Any way to setup dedicated servers?

There is no single-player game.
Well, you can play a game against all AI opponents but that's it. Games don't last long... 20-40 mins usually, depending on what speed people ask for.
Download the demo, it's the same thing as the full game except you can only play 2-player games and can't change all the options.

Edited by: Merciless1 on 04/10/2006 07:21:44 Yes you can play a single player game. You have to start a new game then fill all the open slots with CPU players.

Originally by: TruthKeeper Defcon is absoloutely brilliant. It amaze me thinkin' how much fun I get from a game of about 60 mb and 14 euros price. Much kudos to the guys at Introversion Software, they made it again! 
Its not the size of the game that matters!!11 ;)
Frontier Elite 2 on the atari ST was less than 700kilobytes.. and had me playing every day for over a year..
Which reminds me.. Frontier elite 4 is out sometime next year! Hopefully it will be as good as no3

Couldnt agree more mate.. I buy all my games now.. When I was younger, and couldnt afford to buy every new game that came out, I'll admit I have downloaded pirated games in the past, But usually follow up with the purchased authentic product.
Companies like Infoversion/CCP, deserve to make a living.. you can tell these people love their work, and Ive gotten many many hours of enjoyment from their work.

I bought the game the other day through their website for a tenner. I got an email saying that the box copy was going to be delayed. Then Lazy Gun (corp CEO) told me I could get the demo, and use authenticatorize it using the key I got in an email.
But I hadn't got that email.
So I used the "Tell us if there is a problem" box from their accounts page on the website, and asked for a key, which arrived this morning via email.
And I'm clock watching at work. I need to get home and try the full game now.

Change the extension on the sounds.dat file in the defcon base folder to .zip, then extract the sound files with winrar.
(they're ogg files but you should be able to find a tool to convert them to mp3 easily enough)
The LordsPrayer sound file is very spooky. When I played the "woman cry" file, the dog went nuts 
How do i go about changing the extension to .zip?

You don't really need to, just open sounds.dat with winrar.
