Author Topic: New default weapons? (Read 6419 times)

The default look of the soldat weapons we all love and hate, has been with soldat for a long time now.

What do you say we sprite it up a bit, and have a contest to make a new layout to all the soldat weapons?
Kind of like Soldat Enhanced by Mangled*

This is just an example of a mod that takes the default weapons and make them look nicer.

Look at the old ones, and you can see that they look kind of outdated graphic wise.

I think such a contest could have very good results, and increase soldat's first impression on people by alot.

Thoughts and comments?

Point is that people should get such nice weapons when they play soldat for the first time. Might make a lasting impression on them, and more of a feeling to show the game off to friends.

Haha, soldat enhanced IS my default. I love it.

Yes it is a good mod, but let us not stray from the subject ;P

If the defaults should get a facelift, so should everything else. The main menu is still really ugly and kind of unresponsive. It should definitely keep its military like style, but just updated to be more smexy, maybe even *hint* moddable *hint* *hint*

I think so, maybe registered version gets a super secret mod or something

I love SE, but I think what he is saying, is that they should be IMPROVED, not changed to SE.

It would be great if Soldat's aesthetics were improved, and moddable menus would be fantastic. I never liked the layout, personally.

Right now if people want to make their Soldat look nicer there are plenty of mods to do the trick. If we were to change the defaults, however, there are a lot of different preferences here and most to every detail will be contested as far as how to change it is concerned...

I think atleast the weapons should get a facelift. Dont know about the main menu, since it has not been moddable before.

Yeah, a little more eyecandy on the game would do just good. I would also see to like the weapon names change a little bit, it looks more proffessional.

IMI Desert Eagles
H&K Mp5 A4
AK-74 Kalashnikov
Steyr AUG A#
SPAS-12 (although I would like to see this weapon changed to a Benelli at all....)
Ruger M77
M79 Fragmentation
Barret M82A1
FN Minimi 249
XM214 Minigun

Socom P8
Combat Knife
Chainsaw
M72 LAW Rocket Launcher

Afterall I would love to see this being changed, but I wouldn't mind that much if it's not going to be.

This isn't a place to just advertise your mods, the first one was just an example. Plus, your mod as a snowflake's chance in hell of being made the default

And, yes, I think having an organized new-defaults-contest would be a great idea. And menu modding would be friggin' incredible...

Damn. That sh*t's photograph-quality.

If it would be changed then it should be changed for "Soldat Enchanced" because of it's defaultish style.

I want to hear MM's opinion on this. I've sent him a PM, but I dont know if he will care ^^

See, that's why it'd have to be a contest, to see which one is liked by the most people.

Not only including those two, of course.
