Before all of you twats start going 'I told you there was a beta, yap yap yap', shut it. Yes you were right, congratulations.

More to the point. Seeing as how awesome the new upcoming version is; a lot of us beta testers found it hard to keep it a secret, plus, all the topics and questions about whether there is a beta started to agitate us. We managed to convince Michal to allow us (well, it was mainly me who did all the nagging but I got others to join in) to release a screenshot of the new version. Hoooowever, much to our disappointment he's only allowed me to take a screenshot of the 'Start Game' menu because, I quote: quote:Originally posted by Michal Marcinkowski
I only want to show them changes that can't be complained about. The screenshot will show them the new Mods menu and the new game mode so I don't think anybody will complain about that. I don't want the whining to start before the version has even been released :)).So, without further a due:

[IMAGE]

As you can see, there is a new Mods menu, which allows you to switch Mods as well as selecting specific guns, textures, etc to use from each mod. Basically, you can mix mods up with ease. The new game mode 'King of the Hill' is pretty self explanatory.

Please only post relevant comments and we don't want any 'OMG, BUT WHY DIDN'T YOU ADD <Insert game-mode or any other crap here>!!' comments. b00stA will be keeping an eye out on this topic. Oh, and don't ask when it's gonna be released because we still have a lot of testing ahead of us and don't know.

I've been tricked before with beta previews... :<
...But this looks awesome! :D

Actually, I have been working on a sort of mod lately that will work perfectly with this new system for interchanging skins.
King of the hill sounds great, I'm really interested in seeing how the new default maps for it will look.

Yes, the new 1.2.2 is imminent. I'd 'imagine' sometime within the remaining month, anywhere between this weekend and the beginning of august. We've been in beta for quite a while -around a month at least- in a suprisingly quiet way.

Theres so much thats been added, it's impossible to remember it all. Here's a few key little niggles to keep you wet with anticipation though.


You can now THROW the flag.
Weapon statistics upon each shot made.
You can now carry 4 weapons and select them individually with keys you can setup yourself (default insert, home, page up and Del key)
New SHOES option in player graphics; you can select shoes, sandals, or barefoot.
New move: Backflip!
Fully customisable weapon editing abilities!
Server hosts and admins now have new '/headpop playername' command, making a player's head explode to teach a lesson.
Favourites list in the lobby, so you can add favourite servers (including password data)
This time, the shield is real!


..and thats just a few of the small things to come in the new 1.2.2. I can't be arsed with screenies, but i'm sure Hitman can russle something up ;)

Those are definently fakes. They have to be.

Everyone would be too uber with 4 weapons and the simplistic way to use them would be thrown off the charts. Fake.

Im confused about the /headpop one but I think thats a fake too. Just doesnt seem like MM would implement it.

I agree, I don't care about the beta, because I don't test it anyway. I want to hear about Soldat 1.2.2 when it's released. I don't need to hear about all these faked features before the official release, it's not even funny anymore. Go home Hitman and Chakra.

Didn't Michal say there WOULDN'T be a menu for mod changing? I'mnot sure to believe this, but Lapis's 'acknowledgement' kind of confused me, Lapis is trusted by me, a lot, probably because of his cheery nature on these forums. And if so, where is the Soldat bit so you can click it to move the window? I have no reason to believe you, but no basis on why this is false.

-You can now carry 4 weapons and select them individually with keys you can setup yourself (default insert, home, page up and Del key)
No way they are default keys, those have a bad efficiency and they are too far away from the normal controls. Even if you can change controls, that's still not like Michal to make the controls so inefficient.

In other words... I'm sitting on the fence, and have no idea which way to fall.

Nice one A**holes. Waste of my f**king time

Vij, well spotted. That'll be the first bug reported by a non-beta tester. I've already made the topic but given you the credit : )

Edit: Unlucky and Yuk, I think the reason why Michal said that a built in mod-menu wouldn't be included in the next version was because at the time it was still very very buggy and he was thinking of removing it. That's the only reasonable explanation I can come up with... *Shrugs*

Anyway, thanks to all the mod-happy people on the team they managed to get him to keep it + work on it and it seems to be pretty stable in this beta (Beta 2).

When I came back from my grandmothers and LazehBoi told me that we're beta testing again, I was shocked. But I was even more shocked when I saw one of the features that got implemented:
Some maps were altered so now they have a Nuke button. Activated by a grenade, the nuke button kills everyone on the map. Michal is working on a shelter function as we speak, but undoubtably this will bring major changes in team gameplay.
Here's a small clip about the new Nuke button on Chernobyl, but there are plans to implement it on Voland, Run and a few inf maps like Fortress and Abel.

Grenades are much more common in Soldat, so it isn't much of a problem. /headpop is only usable by admins - if you're going to war with someone who abuses admin rights like that, then you should just leave.
Also, you can only fire one weapon at a time, so.

no, they are invited when someone who is already a beta tester feels like asking them to join (with the permission of the other testers).

i never asked anyone, and i never even thought about myself being on the beta team. one day on IRC chakra just invited me into the group, saying that i would be a valuable addition to test out the servers and stuff.

if you ask or show any interest in being a beta tester, you probably kill all chances of ever being one

Lol, just putting the finishing touches on for you.

Seriously, who cares if the beta testers want to frazzle you a little bit? In the end, you're going to get the same product whether or not the beta testers have a little fun at your expense. I'm not saying it isn't immature and irresponsible, I'm just saying that you don't have to whine and demand replacement beta testers.

Okay.

We've been testing for a little longer than one month and found many, many bugs.
Does ANYONE here actually remember the last time a beta was tested or does this forum consist of people with alzheimer and newbies?
Back then we started the hoax earlier because stuff got leaked, this time it's done for the fun.
Now, anyone who remembers the last time will know that no information is to be trusted. If you got your hopes up, that's pretty much your fault.

Inviting is usually frowned upon really, and decided by everyone together from the start (everyone = those agreed to assign beta testing from the last beta test). We've trimmed our little beta team down quite a bit this year.


But I invited you for a good reason. Theres a few new options and thingamajigs going on with the new dedicated server, and figured you were the man for the job. Respect ya for that, innit.

Seems like "we" had to make clear we have a somewhat more important status than others concerning this game. Don't generalise us though, Hitman created this topic on his own, and some more beta-testers seemed to enjoy messing it up even more. I dislike this behaviour, as more of us beta-testers do.

To the people not trusting us beta-testers: We can assure you we do our job. Apart from making a stupid topic like this, we managed to find and point out over 200 topics with bugs. We do what we can to point out as many bugs to Michal as we can, and Michal is doing all he can to fix them.

Sorry to you all for this topic, I wish it wouldn't exist. Some of us beta-testers should know better than irritate and annoy people.


same as kazuki.

I think future betas should be kept completely silent up until the moment of release, and one day a thread should just appear anouncing the new version

I can't believe that im just seeing this, but then again, I didn't really have a computer yesterday. Finally, KOTH, what a good addition. I also am finally getting ready to enter the mods that have been infesting soldat lately. Hopefully the mod menu will make it easier. What about a built in skin color changer guys? Unless it's bad thing to make your army dude look cool, then i should hope the new version will make it a bit easier. Anyways, looks great!

You can now THROW the flag.
Weapon statistics upon each shot made.
You can now carry 4 weapons and select them individually with keys you can setup yourself (default insert, home, page up and Del key)
New SHOES option in player graphics; you can select shoes, sandals, or barefoot.
New move: Backflip!
Fully customisable weapon editing abilities!

The weapons have not changed in the beta, by the way, so stop f*cking asking. Weapon balance is something that Michal shouldn't put up with any longer, I believe. If you think there's something wrong with that, then tough on you.

I am glad to see that at least some people in here are excited about new features, rather than rambling on about "OMG YES MY RUGAR IS GONNA POON!"

By the way; Yes, this topic pisses me off.

Yeh ive told MM all the tools and shizzle I used so they should get blocked in the new version, all the trainers that were created for 1.2.1 are instantly rendered useless because each time MM compiles a new soldat.exe the memory addresses change, so its all sweet now; Soldat will be cheat free when 1.2.2 comes out (For awhile anyway).

Now all we need is a 3rd party anti-hack client like Cheating-Death ;)

Wow, it is unbelievably and pathetically sad how seriously you people are taking this.

I hear some of you are calling for new beta testers. Why? Because we've spent just over a month testing (some of us giving up our free time), reporting bugs through hundreds of topics, suggesting new options to make your 'game-play' lives easier (and cooler), as well as discussing various balancing issues page, after page, after page, just to get this version as perfect as possible and then decide to play a little practical joke on the community?

Honestly people, look at yourselves; you're getting so worked up over a little joke...regarding a computer game. The next version will still be released and it will still be the same regardless of this topic. You should know by now that we wouldn't reveal any new features included in the new version (well, at least I wouldn't; my post was 100% bulls**t) so with that in mind, instead of getting so worked up over it, just enjoy it, laugh at the people who fall for it and even play along as some of the others have.

Don't complain that this has ruined the surprise of the inevitable release. Oh no, now you know that a new version is due for release...but isn't that what's expected? Plus, you guys still don't know what the f**k's in the new version or when it's going to be released, so what's the problem? I mean don't you have anything better to look forward to in your lives? Or were you waiting to blow your loads at the release of the new version? Furthermore, I'd say that with the recently acquired knowledge that there is a beta being tested it'll make you look forward to the next version even more because you know its coming.

That's what I mean by "some very old versions". When replying to newbies, I don't go into details when it's not necessary.

If you are a beta tester, act responsible. Look at the people who didn't have the doubtful joy of reading your previous hoaxes. Look at the newbies who were happy about all the new features you mentioned. And imagine how much they will be disappointed, if some of them were just a (Please refrain from swearing)ing bullSH!T. HA-HA-HA. I just disappointed a bunch of Soldat newbies!

On B00sta's advices: Great advice to laugh at this topic! Can't you see it's funny only for people who know the truth? If someone laugh at something he doesn't understand, it's simply pathetic. Besides this "joke" is OLD.

Oh no, it's the end of the world. Boo, hoo. You see, that's exactly my point. You're taking it too seriously. Who cares if we 'dissapointed' a few newbs, the many cool new features will make up for the faked ones, and they will still play Soldat, regardless.

1.1.0 and 1.0.5b are right next to each other, so there's no version inbetween. It's kind of confusing to read, though I understand what you mean.

Well, this isn't the first time a moderator (or pretty much any person with one form of authority or another, for that matter) acted like a jackass, so I wouldn't be riled up by this one. Besides, common sense tells that if there's a private forum where the new patch changes are being discussed and kept away from the prying eyes of the public, a beta preview would go against the whole effort. I *almost* fell for the king of the hill mode and dropping flags, though, as they were suggested many times in the past.

No, it's called having a little fun. Plus as b00stA said, it's certainly livened this boring dump up. You obviously don't have any fun in your life, and therefore try and inflict your "Omg, I'm anal about everything"..ness on everybody else.

Nobody cares.

Edit: That was at Aquarius over there. Btw, I'm not a mod anymore...haven't been for aaaaages.

Edit #2: In reply to Aquarius's post below. I wouldn't have made this topic if this version was a simple bug fix. The new features in the next version are way better than the ones I faked.

This topic has fattened up quite a bit.
Now really, just my 2 cents here... this topic maybe childish, but those throw the first rock at us, who had not enjoyed having childish fun every once in a while. This topic was never meant to be serious: it's just a free show where everyone can fun and toy around with his realized visions of the new version. (see the pictures and clips)
So really: you don't have to take everything seriously. Those who are offended by this, I am deeply sorry, but that's just how our humour is like sometimes.
