I had been using 2px wide colored bullets back in 1.3.1, and these were just tier 2 sexiness. <3

This poll is biased for the negatives. Personally I think the bullets look awful but at least make the poll proportionate.

crazymonkey, you're totally right... *applauds*

I love them, they're much easier to see now. I had fat bullets with the Enhanced and Evolved mods. :)

I love the new grenades! They're awesome.

The bullets, though... A different story.

I dont get why people hate the bullets, dont you want to see where you are shooting? One of the most important things in soldat is aim, and these new bullets certainly help improve that.

And for the new people coming into soldat, if the first thing they say is "DAMN! those bullets is u-g-l-y!, and fat!" and quit the game. then well, they got their own problems.

The bullet's size is ok with me, it's just that if you're going to colour the bullets, dont make it so obvious.  The bullets shouldn't be coloured in the first place, but if they're gonna be, less bright.

May I point out it's impossible to revert the bullets to what they were/are in 1.3.1?
Changing the weapons-gfx does only half the job. Bullets are still brighter and a bit roundish. (still working on it though)
EDIT: this might be a PNG issue. I'll look into it...

Also I noticed that all the beta testers have the same and unique opinion about the new bullets.
I smell elitism. ;)

I have the 1.3.1 graphics in use and love it. These bullets are just stupid looking. Silly fat bullets and tracers on every shot belong in a mod -- not the de facto game standard.  Might as well just made all the soldiers mechs and have players who don't like it change that as well.

1.3.1 bullets are in a package in the "Partial Mods" section. I know because I released it.

That poll is "one-side-based", because THE WORST idea option, is the WORST thing in Soldat 1.4 option.

These bullets aren't the best thing in Soldat (hude community and gameplay is). They make you horribly visible, especially snipers.
My SPAS-12 doesn't like most of people. He can mistakenly shoot your brain out of your head and splash it on the nearest wall.

Rofl stop whine and change bullets ;x
you don't quite get it, so I am going to explain this again.

New people are not going to change the bullets, nor will they try to find a download of changed bullets. they will just leave, that is a bad thing. You do not want to push off potential register-ers

Aue contrairey.... take a look at this poll. What are people saying? They preferred 1.3.1, or they like it because they already had bullets that big. What does this tell you?

It should tell you the same thing thats been established about a lot of things in Soldat over the many new versions. People generally don't approve of sudden change. A newcomer to the game however won't have anything to compare it to, so they're likely to just....like it.

 Guess we should ask those new to Soldat what they think of the game altogether now really, as all us experienced peeps have a past with the game's history and (don't argue - its the same every version for everyone) require readjustment and time to really get comfortable again.

WOW! Plasma rifles in forty watt range!
Available today!


Personally I like the new bullets but the colors might look funny on some guns, like the minigun and the mp5.
If those were made less blue, than that would be perfect. But on the other hand, I love energy based weapons.

even if you change the bullets from 1.4 to 1.3.1 they are still colored, and so, it doesn't solve the problem... lol
