After a match in a 1.2 CTF Game I came out very impressed.

Thanks Michal, thanks beta testers....This version is a major step up, Michal your a smart guy i like you. I love the gore, the new damage system, and the little effects. You made this game a hell of alot funner and added a spinkle of life here and there.

Unforutunatly i encountered some whiners in the servers saying "OMG this sucks" "Nerf this" "Nerf that" "Barret blows now" "Deagles are to powerfull"....But hey It happens not everyone can be happy. Infact all you whiners can blow me....appreciate the new version for what it is.

Thankyou once again for making SOLDAT what it is now.

1.2 ROCKS

I like 1.2 a lot... I just figure some ppl accept change better than others. I'm sure all of you who say you don't like 1.2 will all learn to like this version too.

well i have to admit, when a non registered person comments on your nice neon green jets, it is quite satisfying :)

I'm registered, just waiting on the key to come ;).

Seems like a lot less people are registered than I originally thought. At least, everyone said they registered....

So far Soldat 1.2 is a dissapointment. "Tons of new options for Registered Users" or whatever the heck Michal said is BS..all we get is new color jets. Woohoo. Oh yipee. Sure damage was changed, but so far that is about it. With this many changes, it should have been released months ago. And for the previous posting of saying "Soldat 1.2 is the best game" in some of the News posts...it's BS. I really shouldn't have registered Soldat...waste of money and time. Ugh. Flame me if you feel like it, but 1.2 bites compared to how much Michal and others played it up.

If he does not have a life is because he does not want. Everyone told him to make first a non-buggy soldat and then add new features if he wanted.
