"It's been almost two years, since selfkill interviewed Michal Marcinkowski. Now that the mapping contest started, we used our chance, and Michal answered us 14 interesting questions about him and Soldat. Please note that the interview questions were submitted before Michal's birthday on May the 24th. By the way: We didn't get answers only. If you're interested in older works of Michal, and you'd like to know how he looks - then read on now!"

Here: www.selfkill.com - latest news ;)

Enjoy!

PS: The sumo fighter link doesn't work yet

The Link works now!

What is the "Bink effect"? I know i've seen it but I dont know what it is :s

Michal looks like a kid in my school. The girls dig him, too.
I wish I was like you...
Anywho, there are a few interesting things in that article, especially the open source bit.
I sure hope that it is later, though, I love Michal's handywork!

Cool interview, I do hope a game company looks in Soldat's direction eventually; it would make me all warm and fuzzy inside knowing his hard work paid off financially ^_^ I guess the golden Michael statues will have to do for now =)

This disturbs me:

Every Soldat versions brings whining about weapon balance. It is a crucial thing for the game and I would love to make it perfect. But during the years I learned that I can be only close to perfection (which 1.2.1 nearly is, although I'm gonna change some things in the next version), so I decided to let people change the weapon statistics. In the next version I hope to make every weapon statistic moddable (like bink, reload time, bullet speed etc.).


I'm affraid that statment means the way Soldat is atm is the way its gonna stay forever :(

May 28, 2005, 9:32 am
1.2.2 will appear, i'll bet.

Thanks for playing I hope you're having fun. Whatever you found in this game I'm happy you found it. Don't take the game too seriously, give new players a warm welcome instead of calling them 'n00bs', I know they are annoying, but deal with it. Soldat has a big learning curve and not everyone can be master in one week. Also... I hope you are not angry with me because I release a patch every couple of months. When I work on a new patch it really sucks my brain out and I need a long break and just do something else. Especially now it's not easy and fun as it used to be because the game has grown big. Thanks Selfkill for the interview and for a great community page for all these years!

May 29, 2005, 12:55 pm
perfect weapon balance is STUPID. Each weapon should have its pros and cons. Eg. Barret can kill in one shot but gets binked the (Please refrain from swearing) out of. Spray guns dont get binked as much but take longer to kill.

LEAVE THE WEAPONS AS IS!!!

Because he kinda guessed that a lot of fans would go Photoshop-happy and spam the forums with his edited pictures. 4-5 are okay.. but this is getting rediculus.

Weapons need to be ReBalanced, its a sprayfest is every server(including matches)

there is very little skill involved anymore, everything kills to quickly.

wtf, Michal doesn't look like 40 O.o
Michal looks like the age he is (21), maybe a few years older (you might guess that he is 26 or 27 if you didn't know his birthday), but never like 40 years O.o

And im very sure that he submitted a real photo of himself :)
