Day of Defeat had it tuned a bit shittily. Because the Garand was actually superior they toned down the fire rate so it was useless and nobody used it unless the server roles forced you to. On the other side the German K98 in that game was essentially a one shot kill gun that I loved using.
Day of Defeat was the first really good WWII multiplayer game that had all those cool maps created out of scenes from Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan.
