Things that annoy me.

[some idiot with a gun]

This is just a rant at things/people in soldat.

When people decide that camping is not camping when they move from their spot BUT STAY IN THE SAME AREA.

Ruins the game for me, really pisses me off when I go to that area and they are still there, killing off everyone because they just stay back and not fight whilst their team mates go off and kill the on coming people. Happens so often that I kill the first 2 people, run up thinking I'm free then BAM. Still there, 4 re-spawns on, camping. (I had commited 2 stupid deaths at this point, stupid phone distracted me)

Anyway, if you've got anything that bugs you, sharing is caring


I am the idiot with the m79 and LAW and barrett.

what bugs me the most on publics are players who whine about spawnkilling.

should i just let you kill me instead? besides it's very easy to escape in any of the official ctf maps if you actually tried it or changed your weapon instead of qq.

i mad

also camping is okay too especially if you can dominate the whole enemy team by yourself. campers are easy to kill, people just choose the - even easier - path of crybabies.

[some idiot with a gun]

Its more the campers who specifcally lying down or crouching along the same path. you hit them and all, the retreat you take time to reload then booooom they kill ya after getting a med pack.. i guess im whining but like after a while it gets rediculous

What annoys me most of all is that most of the servers with players in them are realistic and/or survival.

You could at least do the polite thing and also offer normal servers.

I do actually, for sometime now: 176.9.8.253:24574  (normal ctf)

[Mittsu]

its not about the lack of servers but about the popularity of r/rs i guess

My dear Leo, plurality is very important. I said servers. I see you only hosting one non-tainted server.

A lack of discretion in the use of explosive/splash damage weapons from my team irks me plenty. When things could be made easier with a team function, you have some people who throw out grenades upon first spawn. Granted that is the proper etiquette for some maps (I suppose), getting would-be kill shots are sometimes disrupted by some teammate's grenade(s) detonating behind me. And to make matters worse, some dispense of our entire available supply of grenades JUST BECAUSE THE GRENADES RE-SPAWN?

But I suppose I am complaining because I play in public games a lot, not making time to find out about clans or private games, and I rely on the grenades sparingly and its various application throughout the match, as I see it, with discretion.

Sounds like a great suggestions/ideas thread topic (interested in ideas on how to solve this issue)

@Shoozza:
Since grenades are used a lot in Soldat. Improving how they work can really make the gameplay better.

I see 4 big problems with grenades:

1) Throwing nades through thin polies:
I've seen a ticket in mantis about it. Hope you guys can solve this quick.

2) Nades don't kill when thrown at head/torso.
That's pretty annoying.
Suggestion: make it deadly whatever body part it hits.

3) Nade spamming.
Pretty annoying too.
Suggestion: increase the minimum time you need to press the nade button, in order to throw a nade.
Increasing it by 20% would probably be enough. But I guess that's something you can fine tune by testing it.

Note: I tap the nade button to prone cancel and even after 2 years of practice, I still sometimes throw a nade accidentally.

4) "Buggy nades":
 When a grenade hits the ground, it often bounce unpredictably.
I suppose this would not be easy to fix. But it hurts the gameplay a lot imo.
Dodging a nade feels too much like a gamble.
