I like Metal Slug. Will I also like Soldat?

I'm a big metal slug fan, and soldat sorta looks like it. I was just wondering if soldat would be my kind of game.

I haven't played Metal Slug but if your into 2d games...well you came to the right place, this game has fans from all around the world and players of all ages. Heck I never played a 2d shooter in my life before I played Soldat and the game has stuck with me for years now.

Yes, in some aspects, it is like metal slug. But unlike Metal Slug you can aim in any direction, not just forward, up, and down.

If you're anything like me, you'll love it. Metal Slug and Soldat are 2 of my favorite games. Download Crimsonland, too, if you haven't yet.
I attend grammar school, last grade, and ignorance is all around me. Well, good for them. Ignorance is bliss.

Isn't your sig from metal slug?

I really don't think soldat has that much in common with metal slug. Metal Slug is all small but insanely powerful weapons. Kinda comic book style. Soldat is a bit more modest and requires more along the lines of aiming.

in other words both fun but different game play
try Soldat its good fun and moderately small
if i had my own bazooka then there wouldn't be much else in the world

I was addicted to metal slug until I found Soldat. Once I found Soldat, I never touched metal slug again because I was too busy being addicted to Soldat.

metal slug has guns and all, but it is very very different from soldat. 

Really, i think the best possible comparison i can come up with for this unique game is that it is like worms (armageddon, world party), without the turns, and with unlimited jetpack, and faster pace.

Worms with out the turns.  That's pretty pithy, i think soldat should take out an ad on a worms fan site, use that catch phrase.  Worms without the turns... *walks away repeating it to himself, and convincing himself he's clever*
Without originality society is doomed.
If you are tired of seeing the same lines in every signature, don't put this in your signature

worms - turns = leiro
leiro + mouse aiming + modern FPS conventions + 80s action movies + jet boots = soldat

Well, Metal Slug is pretty different from Soldat, being a run and gun-type shooter. Still, if you enjoy running around blowing stuff up, you'll like Soldat.
Also, I think you'll like the Metal Slug mod. Everyone should check it out too, it's a good mod.

Actually it's...

Liero+mouse aiming+modern FPS conventions + 80s action movies + jet boots-destructible landscapes=soldat.

Don't bother asking either.
Destructible landscapes=ain't gonna happen.

And now someone's gonna turn this into a topic.

Yet another formula:

Metal Slug - linearity and levels + big maps + modern weapons + jet boots + multiplayer + mouse aiming = Soldat
To sum up my point: We had a multipage debate about toilet padding. (Putting TP in the water so you don't get splashed.)
And we still don't know if dead guys can keep a stiffy.

I think Soldat will be your next favourite 2D shoter. Try it out, get some mods for it to spice up the gameplay and looks.

Definitely give it a try. I'm positive you'll be hooked on it for at least a week or so.
For signatures, you are allowed only one image in your signature which may not be wider and taller than 300 and 125 pixels, and may not be over 20kB in file size. No BMPs are allowed.

Yeah, it all comes down to what you think, don't ask us about it. I tried it out and have been hooked for the past 3 years.

It probably takes less time to download and try this game, than it took to make this thread.
