Remember a long time ago when they had desktop buddies, like Neko the cat or something, and some other things, where they would run around on your desktop, and you could manipulate them by waving your cursor at them or dragging them around, or they could climb on your windows?
I think it would be cool if there were Soldat ones, where you'd have little guys running around shoot each other, and hiding next to windows for cover. You could set their intensity and the amount of people, so they wouldnt get too annoying. You could also control your own guy and shoot at them, or just middle-click to fire some bullets at them.

1. This should be in another section dure to its not related to the actual gameplay
2. Why bother with it when you can play SOLDAT the actual game instead of controlling it on the desktop?
3. It would slow down all the other programs that you are running because of the proccess it takes up on your computer.

If you really want it, make it for yourself.

well, true - its not rly soldat related but the point is not that u can instead play sodlat rather than watch it cuz i think its funny to watch them kill themselves on my desktop and it wouldn't slow u down that much unless ur computer sux cuz there r other things like that like zmatrix for ur background and that doesn't slow down my computer

It would just be a fun thing to have, and something to play with do if youre bored but dont have the time to actually play a game or if youre at work or something.
Another idea is to have an animated soldat screen saver, or an interactive one. Basically, I'm just saying that it would be cool to have fun soldat related programs for the soldat addict. The old desktop buddies were pretty popular, and really fun to play with.

maybe like 2 soldats shooting each other
but shooting at them would be kinda exagerrated..

Love for something can turn in to a obsessive disorder.

When their bullets hit your desktop icons, they get deleted. Yeah, that'll be fun.
