No release date yet, but I got a small preview of the new version of Soldat. Just to let you know that the time your waiting is not lost.
Selected new big things in Soldat 1.2:
- demo recording
- smooth polygon edges (look at screens below)
- spectator mode
- new options for registered players
- new special effects
- lots of new server commands
- new completely working dedicated server for linux
- greatly optimized network code
- better weapon balance (greater M79 speed, auto weapons more powerfull)
- better, more fun physics
The complete list of changes is very very long, those are just a few things that will be new. I can assure you also that all the major 1.1.x version bugs will be gone. During the past months Soldat 1.2 is being tested so it will be the best version ever (it is already the best game in the world so only a new version can beat it:)).

---added by DNA.styx----
And here are two screenshots from version 1.2 (click on them to expand, notice the smoothness of the poligon edges - it is an effect similar to antialiasing or cell shading).

But wtf is demo recording???

December 14, 2003, 8:43 pm
Droopy, it's like some kinda replay function :)
You can record your games to SMALL files, play them again or send them to friends to show off or something..

I hope it works fine and not so much lag when recording.

Nebby
December 14, 2003, 8:47 pm
Now then:

Does it actually record everything, or does it record the physics and button presses etc then recreate them?

i should think the latter would be waaay smaller.

Hitman
December 14, 2003, 8:52 pm
When you say 'SMALL' files does that mean that there is a limit for how long you can record for?

They're small because they're not recorded in a movie format like AVI or MPEG.
Afaik it's just the data sent between you and the server, so Soldat recreates the game.

I haven't heard about a general length limit. Oh, and the beta testers aren't able to test it right now.

fuc kin' great about new info, but i've 2 questions:

will demos include audio (not wav/mp3 files but (i don't know) maybe cordinates to files in Sfx dir (or something like this:))

will those "smooth polygon edges" make soldat working slower, and will it be an option?

Topi
December 14, 2003, 11:48 pm
Aww.. I kant wait to see what the new "options" for registerd users will be!

DeafBox
December 15, 2003, 12:13 am
Thanks for the update, i really hope it comes out soon. Im really liking the idea of smooth edges and a spectator mode. GJ.
Ive heard conflicting reports on what the new Net Code will actually mean in real terms so, yeah, will i really be gettin better pings or not?

December 15, 2003, 12:15 am
w00t is 1.2 you have to uninstall 1.1.5 or just install it to the directory?

December 15, 2003, 2:06 am
I'm pretty sure there will be a update from 1.1.5-1.2 and also 1.2 full.

Thanks Michal for giving us an update we needed something to keep us waiting, and i really like the smooth edged polygons :)

I'd assume the style of demo recording will be much like that of Starcraft replays. What I want to know is if the recordings will include the messages sent by the players/server or if it will be strictly gameplay.

i thought exactly the same; Starcraft replays are comparatively small, so there should be no problem in uploading them. Of course possibility of demo recording and spectator mode will (should) eliminate cheating problem and any misunderstandings in official interclans and leagues matches.

btw. Death is back!! [^]

I dont think you'll be able to whatch passworded games. Thats why they're passworded. I gues before you enter teh game you will have to choose (in CTF or INF) red, blue or spectator. I guess..

I thank you VERY VERY much for giving me a taste of what to hope for michal (btw, i have registered already, so i get the goodies right off the bat, MWAHAHAHA). Not to sound like I'm complaining, cuz I'm not, but one question stands out in my mind. Why is it taking so long? Is it still the lobby, or is it bug fixes, or is it (*gasp*, I hope) new features? Also, how does this poly rounding work from the point of view of the map maker?

English and Polish on the start. After the release I hope there will be new translations within days available for download.

>>What about the MapMaker and InterfaceMaker? Any changes?
Nope. I'll have time for that after the release.

>>skythe : I never promised anything

>>with this new spectator mode can you watch any game, even ones with passwords?
ee no?:) That would destroy the whole point of passworded server.

>>What's the faith of barret?
The Barret will require more skill to use since the auto weapons will be more powered. Also the scope will change, it will not zoom instantly but slowly. This will add more variety to the gameplay.

December 18, 2003, 1:23 pm

December 22, 2003, 7:03 pm
was there this much beta testing with the other versions? It seemed like there was less testing before the release and more patches to fix the problems. It was almost like all of us were the beta testers on the earlier versions.

I hope there will be some drastic changes in the "intelligent" bot's AI for those of us, who don't have the stable and reliable connection to play soldat online, nor in the LAN.
How about making the AI in a separate file (e.g. a .dll file) if it's not done ATM, and then after the release of the game spending some time (uhm... maybe less than 3 months?) to upgrade it?

And hurry up! I'm getting nervous so I can't sleep at nights :D

December 25, 2003, 1:33 pm
Whatever the changes may be, I'm starting to get sick of all you, and I mean all Barret/LAW Rok only combo players.

For gods sake, don't you feel a bit stupid playing this repetitive style over and over and over and over again?

Kills the game, kills the style, and quite frankly, if someone were to remove the Barret completely, you would lose every single game. Please, hurry up with weapon changes and better balance.
Little suggestion, remove the Barret for a few months, see how the players handle their incompetence and put them in their rightful place, bottom of the chart.

I can bet that at least 75% of the people posting here play the Barret as their main weapon. When you ask them what other tricks they can do, they type "/kill" quickly for the respawn and "8" click.
If those players play any other shooter game I bet they click "8" too at respawn.
Do yourselves a favor kiddies, try clicking other numbers before parading in your underpants and yelling "I OWNS U!".

I especially love those people who join servers and immediately say "do Rok!" "Change to Rok!" etc. I know you all think Rok is such a Gosu map but unfortunately it's probably one of the worst maps this game has to offer, aside from certain flat maps who fall in the same category.

That's my 30 seconds (probably takes you Barret users longer to read this) of Do's and Don'ts of Soldat.
Hurry up with the 1.2 release.

lol "barretards" good one betel

michal said that he was changing the auto weapons to favor the auto users. mebbe this will solve
our problems. what the barret users do not understand that its not very hard to convert to automatic. I have made the change myself. i think its ok if they exist; getting pissed at them isnt going to do jack sh1t to convert them. I think the only option we have right now is the release of 1.2. I agree with betel in that we should accept them.

There is a "noob word" for every single weapon in the game, both sides of this arguement have to work on competency against the thing they view overpowered, Barret for this matter, people who view themselves as more skilled because they can use other weapons than barret, good job, you get a star on your forhead, now show that youre better than "barretards" by killing them instead of saying whose better. Then for others who just argue and flame because in truth the barret is their only weapon, ones that like to spam "I own" at the end of each game they play at while only using one weapon, you get a star on your forhead too, now try to get some variety if you're so good and "1337", if I did it, I'm sure you can.

Throughout my Soldat career I've been called a barret noob, m79 noob, ruger noob, auto noob, DE noob, and spas noob with all the variations of these expressions.

There is an insult word for every single weapon and style in the game, I like to use all weapons, does that make me a Soldat noob?

Everyone can argue, guys, even if its against your opinion, you dont have to go and start flaming like the fate of the universe is resting on the outcome of who'se the winner of this arguement, arguements are only ways of discussing things, you are wasting time by flaming.

do you have any f.ucking idea how hard it is to dodge a barret's bullet u moron?

oh and Michal does not know as much as the players that play his game, imho Michal doesnt play soldat very much, so he doesnt know exactly how we all cope with the game, its us gamers faith to tell him whats bad and whats good, coz if we never did that soldat would hardly have all these great features it has atm... and if we never told him how to balance and un-balance weapons to a better rate then who the hell knows what woulda heppened...

Well said, Eyic. I mean, I've got nothing against well-rounded sniper fighters (that means not campers) but honestly, how can you dodge something that's already across the screen in less than a tenth of a second? Either they miss or they hit, the only real hope is half-assing a barrel role which is cool when it works, but is a rarity since you're in the air half the time anyways.

how about this: everyone stops complaining about the barret, and we start a new topic! arguing isnt going to change anything, nor is expressing your opinion about the issue. You can discuss how to alleviate the "barret problem" using skill, but for god's sake, I think there are enough goddamn barret-bashing threads out there already. Now, lets all be good children and stop arguing. I'm tired of hearing people's sh1t about the barret being too good, etc. I pretty much consider barret-bashing threads spam. Now, let's also not call each other "noobs" etc, just cuz we get killed by them. I know that it's human nature to try to feel better than others, but still, people, can we just try to accept that there are other ppl out there who are better than us?

Here's an idea, at the end of each round, there is an award system like in enemy territory, but these awards can also be embarrasing awards like 'Barret Whore' and things like that, THEN you can prove it to people exactly who is the BEST.

December 28, 2003, 11:45 pm
Or how about changing the spawn system so you can't use the same gun twice in a row? Or if they use the Barret for two rounds, then they can't use it the next round... But of course, the can just do /kill. If that's the case, if someone types /kill, they should have to keep their weapon from the last round...

Barret Whore lol. This award system is a great idea,IMO. I sometimes use the SPAS-12 instead of the Steyr AUG so i can recieve an award like SPASshole.

Almost everyone complains about the barret. That's right at some point cuz the weapons are a bit unbalanced in power (at least in version 1.1.5). The barret isn't one of my favourite weap and I don't enjoy barret campers but the fact is the weapon is available to everyone. If you think that the barret is a very powerful weapon you are free to choose it.

Actually, this would encourage people to use several different weapons instead of a main weapon (eg Barret). Maybe this could be an option that can be turned on or off by the person running the server. The people good with Deagles and so on could use other weapons as well, my system could apply only to the Barret. With Michal bringing in this scope thing, maybe there won't be a need to implement this.

Hey guys, the barret is a SNIPER RIFLE, right?
SNIPERS are people who CAMP and SHOOT from UNKNOWN POSITIONS. I believe that the point of the barret was a sniper rifle, which you camp with and shoot ppl from far away with. Sure, they piss everyone off, but really, its what can be called "good tactics". It's not very difficult to avoid/kill a camper. That is what we must learn.

Topi

First of all, I don't think the Ak-74 needs more damage.

I with you all on the MG's. Things just start getting dull with the barret or M79, I mean it is the same thing over and over. I play on a server with the barret, shoot-kill-wait-shoot-kill-reload-shoot-miss-die-...etc. The same is with the M79. I do use them both from time to time but it seems to be a bit repetitive. At least with the MG's you can open fire on 3 guys and possibly kill them all if you are good, with MG's it is possible to get more than one kill every 4 seconds. Im not bashing the M79 or Barret, I use them both but I think the MG's KICK THEIR ASS!

By the way. Anyone else getting the feeling that on April first there will be a post by Michael on Soldat 1.2 saying "APRIL FOOLS" and that all the anticipation for 1.2 was for nothing and that there never was a 1.2 to start with??!!!*SHUDDER*....Just a horrible disturbing thought...

Lord Graviton
January 3, 2004, 6:58 pm

I dunno, all MGs dont kick all that ass. I mean the Styer or however it is spelled, has a very high firing rate but very very low damage per bullet. The AK is the only half-way descent MG, and you have to be skilled to play with that. I mean it took me some time to get used to that weapon. Whereas, if you take a look at the Barret, its a newbs weapon. But to kill and not die immediately is no joke, only a person with experience can handle that.

Hanz
January 4, 2004, 1:13 am
The MG's are for people who know how to use them. They will be more powerfull in the upcomming version which is a bonus, that will make them easier to use. As fow now in version 1.1.5 they are a weapon for the more skilled. That is why the barret is not a noob weapon but is mostly prefered by the noobs, there are skilled players that use the barret.

LOL, thats one of the best I've heard in a while.
But why would you make the fully-automatics even more powerful. I didn't know about that till now!! I mean cmon!! They are powerful enough, you could kill someone with an AK with only 5-6 direct hits, with a Steyr in only about 10-12 direct hits (dunno about the hp, hk). And then the power of the one hit kill hit weapons are being reduced, this is a complete control of gameplay. Please dont do that patch developers!! [:-weepn]
I love the fully-automatics just fine, and so do I love the one hit kill weapons like the Berret, Law, M79. (you might just want to make the trajectory for a fired M79 tough to predict, and reduce the Berret sights a little but) But other than that the balance of weapon powers is fine... I dont know what everybody keeps whining about!![?][:(!]

geez it doesnt matter how powerful the auto's are in 1.2 the point is, barret is still very easy to use, and you still get quite a lot of time to get your shot ready and shoot, its still 1 shot 1 kill and quite accurate aim in 1.2

Same here, Barret users will continue to use the barret and im fine with that. It is true that if the MG's were more powerfull then I would not get killed as much by them. Instead I will rivit them full of bullets before they can think to aim, and if they do shoot, I dodge!:)

The barret is a very strong weapon, and the use of it is called many things. But the changed scope style may have an great effect on the barret users. If the scope is kind of slow, it will take longer time to find and kill a victim. But barret players are also Soldat players, remember that when calling a barret camper bad names.

Hanz
January 10, 2004, 5:51 am
It is lagg, there is no possible way to survive a shot from the Barret. It is a one shot one kill weapon. Now I do know in the new version bullets will penetrate other players and are able to sink into another player behind them. The Barret shot may only wound the person being hit second, and not kill. Thats all I know about 1.2.....maybe.....

societies_punishment
January 10, 2004, 7:10 am
arg the barret is a one shot kill weapon the problem is lagg yes

alot of people dont understand how it works so ill try to help you understand better

its all about the data tranfer the person you see on your screen will almost always be a split second ahead of where he appears to be

the reason is that you see the person on your screen but his coordanates data has to go through a handful of servers satilite and endless amounds of cable to finally reach your home and then when it does the coordanates of where the person is is often wrong

this is why dialuppers have a very hard time

but if you understand how the internet works then you can be more effective on soldat those who know me say im an insparation to dialuppers because im on 21.6k and can own now im not saying im the best but read this carefully and think about it it makes sence

... perhaps i should lend a hint as well its alot easyer to hit someone comming towrd you then flying vertical ... its really hard to explain but try that out for starters

OMG frog boys got it [:D]

thats right what i was geting at but he explained it better

you may see the bullet hit the person but that is client side you may see blood and everything BUT you have to hit him on your foes side just like he has to hit you on your side games like counterstike use complex code to try and reduce diffenrance in ping and lagg to ruduce this but this is soldat you have to guess where he will be in the next slip second

everyone got it now [;)]

The barret is a very strong weapon, and the use of it is called many things. But the changed scope style may have an great effect on the barret users. If the scope is kind of slow, it will take longer time to find and kill a victim. But barret players are also Soldat players, remember that when calling a barret camper bad names.


Minimizing the scope range would be good to keep campers less succesful.BUT, i dont use the scope so u still have to deal with me!

the 1.2 is persponing little 2 much and the forum of the betatester isn't updated lately so it means no more bugs.. and that means the 1.2 have to come soon, but still... it dont [:(]

Well, seeing as the Beta Testing forum has only has one Active Topic entitled 'Any news on the 1.2 Michal' I think that most of the Beta Testing is now over, and I'm guessing that it should be about a week or 2 until its released, if not sooner.

Hopefully so. BTW, there is a link that I went into on the site that comes up when you try soldat.pl. It says something about harddrive failure and that a lot of things were lost. I have no idea if this has anything to do with Soldat.pl, but I was just throwing it in here. And oh yea, Inform us on 1.2 Ninja, is all the beta testing over?

I don't think u should be too excited over the next version. Personally Im not quite happy with the beta as far as it is developed.
Some things are improved and better and some things are not as good as in 115.

the autos are fairer

the barret is way fairer and more realistic not to mention

the shotty overpowered HA shotguns in real life are overkill

admit that you cant come up with a problem with the newest version


... then again i have little info on make D but still stop wineing it hard to make a game that EVERYONE likes

mike mike mike PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS can you PLS incorperate some kinda way to download the maps from the host server if you are missing the map

i would register soldat witha 100 dollar bill [^]

it would be then cooler then counterstike in everyway

you would revelutionize the way people die online

nothing kewler will be out this century

Hes most likely got better things to do than sit at home a work on the new version while getting complaints left and right from people that just cant wait.

I think all the patience will be worthwhile, because from the looks of it, a lot of effort is being put into fixing bugs found in beta-testing. And it's hard to know how long it will take to find + fix bugs, that's probably why there's no release date yet.

I'll happily wait a bit longer if I never have to see "wrong map version" again. [;)] (I got knocked off 10 times in 15 minutes on one server today bacause of that bug.) [}:)]

not camping...
but just surprising people by popping out of nowhere, like hiding in nooks and crannies of the maps and when people come by just jump out and start firing at them(with my deagles... of course [^])
that is unexpected and many a time i kill them like that. but sometimes it sucks cause i have to go close to make this work and it
is a bad idea if the opponent has something like a m79 or a ruger.[B)]
