I think this will attract newcomers cause the new bullets are quite nicer looking compared to the old ones. Especially since most of the people care about the graphics.

Personally, I think this was MM's sadistic and cruel evil plan to get more registrations
*Evil laughter, fades away*

I just have one question tho:

Are the bullets graphics now centered or what?

Not exacly. A lot of people are attracted to realistic mode (me for example). They don't fit the realistic mode, because it's supposed to be emulate reality in some extent. Dildo bullets and trailed grenade make it look like a stupid arcade game.

If I started playing now, I would be put off by them and I would return to playing Operation Flashpoint or Close Combat.

i don't think they look bad, but to be fair i always mod my soldat to look futuristic so i suppose im a bit biased

The bullets look like cartoonish small fireballs ore something like that..... i find them pretty amusing..... *comic ideah*

Somebody on eC Trenchwars said:

"They look like flying laser dildos"

And I agree. They're just shit.

And dont tell me to change them back, I already did that.

You do realize that most people that find Soldat on the internet are initially searching for a FREE and SMALL game, don't you?

If i was to find soldat i would be quite happy. And you are making exagerations.

-"Bah, this game sucks!!"

-"Why's that?"

-"Have you looked at the bullets? I mean, the game engine is awsome and everything, but this shiny colorful bullets just screw everything up. I'm never touching this again!! I'm going back to close combat!"

-"Close combat has shiny green, yellow and red bullets. It kind of totally fucks up your argument..."

-"Shut up!"

I like them, they remind me of Worms a bit. Which is good. I always wondered if soldat would benefit from one or two slightly cartoonish features. And it does.

So there.

Strawman argument - the debate is about the size of bullets, not about their colours. Also, you are forgetting about the important thing that is the atmosphere of the game. Small bullets make it more realistic visually and closer to real-war-themed action games than to pure arcade games.
I prefer playing Soldat to playing Laser Dildo Warrrior.

Well, i just don't understand the argument of "older bullets were better because they were more realistic" in a game where you're suposed to fly around with jetpacks...

We are talking about graphical realism here. Besides that, Soldat has a fair bit of physical realism too - recoil, soldat's body with different hit-zones, damage calculated from both damage and bullet speed, etc.

I c there r mor ppl with negative view on the new bullets...

Auch! · « **Reply #74 on:** April 30, 2007, 11:50:21 am »

I think if only the bullets won't be...of different colors, like red, blue, orange and so on, all being white (maybe still with the render, but WHITE) it'll be all good. Anyway, I saw up that somebody already said that you could change the bullets for the ones from 1.3.1, buuut...the don't became more transparent with the distance. Damn it >.<
Anyway, between:
a) Play Soldat with laser bullets
and...
b) Don't play it
I just keep with a), no big deal

Shouldn't there be a +2 option...

I like these new bullets. I <3 this. I modded my weapon bullets like that before 1.4 was released ... maybe not so big but ...

Damn, if you don't like new bullets FFS DOWNLOAD 1.31 back and change them !
Is it so difficult ? Or edit them? ...

n/c ...

OMFG this new bullets suck maybe i play star wars or what POWNED BY OBI-WAN

Here is a proof that it seems we can't get back to 1.3.1 bullets.
For some odd reasons, 1.4 makes the bullets brighter.
I'm still trying to figure out how to make them exactly the same.
