I've play the new version of Soldat for too long. I finally realized that it just isn't fun anymore.

I've decided to play 105b and only 105b unless something convinces me to play 1.1.x. Honestly, I was playing this past week (new version) and I cant find any good servers. when i do, i get banned for no reason. When i find a server with people i know, i lag. I hate CTF with noobs or morons who attack you / dont hlep in getting / defending the flag, I cant find good DM servers omfg i have decided to leave the new soldat for good.

Edit:
When I meant not playing the new version, it goes as far as pubbin' and going searching for private servers. I will still continue to duel and test out friend's custom maps such as EmoAC. He's one of the few people that I actually enjoy playing Soldat with. I'll still make maps for the new version, though.

does any1 know where I can DL 105b?

edit: i got it nvm

I agree, there should be a lobby server for 1.0.5b, the new version plain flat-out sucks, and for all of you who are thinking of telling me to just leave, I'm considering it........

i just played 1.05b again for the first time since 2002, and it seemed a whole lto diff it seemed liek a totally diff game with the same idea as soldat :| it just seemed different, though there r a few thigns i like more about the newer versions :| but somethigns i like more in 1.05b...

Blah, I can never understand it when you people get nostalgic about 1.0.5b. As far as I'm concerned, 1.1.x is an improvement on 1.0.5b in every way. Well, except maybe lag.

mmmmmmm... I think I would have to agree with eyic on this one. I played it for the first time in my life today, and it DID seem quite different. I think that the graphics in 11x are definitely more eye-pleasing, but still, theres that special feeling that i get inside when i play 105b... nevermind that for now.

Hmm i want to play the old version where do i download it. The new version is ..... no fun

http://www.soldatveterans.tk <--download 1.0.5b

anyway..I would like to see a upgrade of 1.0.5b where those bugs has been gone (thinking of grenade bugs and such)..oh, it would be sweet...imagine: no lag + no bugs = perfect game

indeed. I think if we mass emailed michal he'll do it, but thats sad. So I don't think thats a good idea. Maybe someone from the forums that agrees with us and has worked closely with him suggest the idea?

no chcances, he doesn't get money for the old version. Besides he works on a new version of Soldat and so he has no time to fix bugs of 105b :/ just for good of some vets. But lobby for 105b would really change everything...

never played 1.0.5b or w/e but to tell u the truth i dont want to. Cuz if i like it then im screwed. I mean its no fun basicly playing alone so im not gonna try it. might sound dumb but w/e.

I dislike people like Bmanx, who were never around for the glorry days of old soldat. 1.05 was definately the best, but just for the pure un adulterated fun, froma completely original game, (and Soldatstriker will back me up on this) 1.02b was the most fun.

I came into Soldat right when 105b was released, so I wasn't familiar with earlier versions. Do they still have these up somewhere? I would love to see how Soldat started off.

Hmmm, I dont know about 1.02b, I didnt play that one. I started on 1.03b, it was bad though because it gave admins too much power. 1.0.5b was the most fun for me because it had the least bugs and was the last sane version.

1.05 will always be fun.

Yea i loved 1.0.5, the only thing i really hated is that u couldnt see the dam barret reload.

1.05b actually required skills. You had to aim perfectly, or else you'd miss. That general rule doesn't seem to apply anymore. Aim with the barret, and you're likely to get a kill. It's that simple. BRING 1.05b BAAACK!!

yeah it would be pretty nice to bring back 1.0.5 again. just think, i wouldn't be able to give myself self inflected wounds with the m79 anymore and i could do those cool little jumps with it again, too.

Actually, I was around a bit for 1.0.5b, so bleh.

YOU CANNOT STOP PROGRESS! MUAHAHA!
*ahem*

but seriously, you are saying that everything that michal has done since 1.0.5b was an unimprovement? RESPECT!

Agreed, Hey maybe we could come to a conclusion? y dont we bring like 3 things that u all AMAZINGLY loved from 1.05b back and make it at least a bit more enjoyable for u veterans.

All I think we ask for is to make the lobby 1.0.5b compatible.

Maybe Michal could hand the 1.0.5b code over to someone he trusts? Seperate developments?

Hey, I just had an idea which would satisfy both of us! it is...



1.0.5b mode!!

Basically, it would be a new game mode which changes everything back to the way it was in 1.0.5b. Well, except anti-cheat, but maybe you could turn it off for private matches (to reduce lag). I think this idea could work!

hmmmmm... MAYBE. However, it might raise the download file to a size that michal wouldnt like.
