Well, I doubt you can get your money back.
And I doubt that there is anything you can do about it.

you serious?

Where are you located? I don't need state, province, city or anything like that. Just country. In almost all parts of the world, there are Soldat communities. In any case, there's probably several nearby, if there isn't one in your community.

If he wasn't serious, I would be surprised no one had taked advantage of it yet.

I'm sorry, but you might want to blame yourself a bit too for not testing the game before paying for extra features.

While others may try a brute force "that's too bad, go away!" approach, let me share this:

You probably can't get your money back. Would it be possible for you to just let it go and accept that the money you paid for your registration is going to help this game live on for a long time and constantly improve? In addition, it will help MM work on his new projects/games.

Your money has gone to help an independent game make survive without being absorbed by some gaming monster. Hopefully you can make your peace with spending a bit of money to support a good cause.

In your other thread you said how you referred to being able to play with low pings a month ago, so it is pretty safe to assume you've been playing for a while. Maybe it is even worth this tiny bit for how much you've enjoyed Soldat in the past and you're showing your appreciation.

im running a 54mbps connection (wireless) whay does it have so high ping, iduno..

FliesLikeABrick · « **Reply #10 on:** June 30, 2007, 04:07:42 pm »

No, his problem is that he's using a wireless LAN connection to try and play games online. He is ignoring the insight, suggestions, and advice of a handful of people who know about it far better than he does and he is complaining about it now. http://forums.soldat.pl/index.php?topic=16719.0

We all tried to help, and his solution is to blame Soldat and demand his money (that he freely gave) back.

54mbps is the speed of the connection to your network. That indicates nothing about the speed of your actual Internet connection and gaming over wireless, as we all told you, is a Bad Idea

Xxypher · « **Reply #11 on:** June 30, 2007, 04:08:03 pm »

$14... an hour?
1: How old are you.
2: Where do you work...

And yeah, in order to have such a bad ping in US servers, you must be on Dial up, or close everything down before playing Soldat.

oh, and to add, i have verizon wireless net. 54mbps is speed.

Xxypher · « **Reply #13 on:** June 30, 2007, 04:10:55 pm »

So, answer my almost question, do you run Dial up?

FliesLikeABrick · « **Reply #14 on:** June 30, 2007, 04:11:15 pm »

If you make a decent amount, which it sounds like you do, then hopefully you can find it worthwhile to support this game.

I'm moving this to the registration/shareware help/questions forum, in our ever-ongoing effort to keep the forums organized

Xxypher, read my last post

The problem is most likely your end, I have never heard of anyone being so laggy that they can't play in any server, with the exception of dial ups. No one forced you to pay for the game. Tons of people still haven't payed a dime and play this game everyday. Like any game you need to do your research before you spend any money on it.
