Ideas collection.

Okay, I believe there should be some changes.
Here are the following I think should be in, feel free to comment on any.

Selectable gender:
Because there are women who play, trust me, I have a girlfriend who plays as Orangeblak, and a friend who plays offline, she doesn't have internet. And no excuses on how they wont be that detectable and look alike as the males, because then no one should mod, because they would look similar.

Explosive poly:
I believe there should be a choice for explosive poly, mainly on the fact that it could simulate mine fields for TW, and make for better fun on climbs.

Wet/water sounds selectable on map maker:
So you could put puddles, or water in soldat, and make a slosh sounds for when you walk on it.

Lobby chat:
I strongly suggest that there should be a lobby chat, where people can go to a select few rooms within the lobby, and find fights, clans, and so on. This would be a great help seeing as IRC chat is the most annoying thing I have ever come by.

Weapon ini inhancements:
There needs to be a more in depth ini setting for each weapon, like, explosive radius for the grenades and M79/LAW, scope zoom length for the barrett, able to turn automatics into semi-auto's, and so on.

Realistic weapon changes:
When you are running while trying to reload, change weapons, or shoot, it gets difficult and sloppy. I say when playing realistic and your moving fast, your reloading slows, changing weapons slows a little, and your shooting is a little less accurate.

Widescreen support:
Just simple black bars across the screen or something, I am tired of not seeing the entire game.

More will be added soon, when I get less bored of typing, because I also have a blog to type.

Oh, PLEASE ADD THE GENDER, SO EVERYONE CAN KNOW THEYRE WOMEN.

Oh, PLEASE ADD THE GENDER, SO EVERYONE CAN KNOW THEYRE WOMEN.

I can defiantly see your new, with no respect for anyone but yourself, please think of others.
You ever play a game with selectable genders? I bet you have, and I bet you picked your gender, as of most people. It is just one of those simple things that is nice to have and others would love. It is not just so you know that person is a female, or male, it is just for the fact of getting to choose what you are, maybe making the character look like you through mods, or some sort of what I am trying to get to.


Sigh... let me try that again.

The choosing gender is so that you can pick what your gender is, mainly for the small detail, and getting that character to represent more and more like you. Sure, your not a woman, but if you where, and you played a game that only had men, you would probably want some changes as well. I know a couple who do, and people who would support me.
Maybe how I put it first was better, maybe it wasn't, but please think of others, not yourself, stop being selfish. Your not the only person in this world.

[BondJamesBond]

The only good idea I agree with is the Widescreen support. And that is still sort of iffy.

That doesn't necessarily mean I disagree with the others, though. I could care less about the genders, puddles, lobby chat, INI, and realistic weapons change (I don't play r/s).

The explosive poly, though... Seems a bit excessive. Would it come back at all? Would we be able to designate the detection area as well as the explosion radius? Would the damage be able to be altered? Maybe it can be worked out, I doubt it though.

[Xxypher]

Explosive poly, I would say you could, but in an INI, or the map maker itself.
And being able to change the explosive radius of explosions would be a good thing, seeing as some explosions are bigger than others with certain weapons and grenades.

[Horve]

I support all the ideas except for the GENDER CHANGING.
I mean for how long are we going to go this through?
Whats this game called?
How the hell are you going the make soldiers look femaleish? If you make them skinnier, then they will have a higher undetectability advantage... titties?- why the f***, go play hentai games... , only diff. in pissing?- just weird...
ladies are worse at shooting guns. so you want more bink on females? Wan't to decrease their hp, since they don't have muscles as thick as males do? Adding genders is not a small modification unless you just put an M or an F sign after the nicknames, but otherwise it is too much of an effort and a waste of time. Wanna add shemale gender aswell... please...

[Xxypher]

What the hell!?
So your saying that all women are striping whores? The title is Soldat, which is Polish for SOLDIER, there are women soldiers you8 idiotic retard.
And women can shoot guns, just because they are a different gender they can't do something? You are extremely sexist, and moronic when it comes to these things, you must be what? 12? And Shemale isn't a gender.

[KorrupT MerC]

Gender change - NO, seriously man, who cares, this isnt an rpg, the character isnt to represent you in real life, its just there to play, and trust me there arent enough girls that play soldat to make this change worth it, most of the girls would be dudes posing as girls and like i said in the other post turn soldat into some dating bullshit game, where you'd walk into a server and people would be cybering or some shit.

[Lord Frunkamunch]

I support all of those except genders (look, the Soldiers are so small it'd hardly be any different. Not worth the time, really.) and lobby chat.

[btfx]

...it is just for the fact of getting to choose what you are, maybe making the character look like you through mods, or some sort of what I am trying to get to.

Let's not forget people who are obese, as well as those who need wheelchairs to move around. And what about pregnant women? Shouldn't the be able to express themselves?

Tell your pussy pal to wear some pink, that'll do it.

Ultimate F11 for the gender....I don't want to see men selecting female genders just for....CYBER SECKS

I Ultimate F12 for Ini enhancements Also, You spellled enhancements wrong .

[Psycho]

The story as it is from the soldat manual:

:---===THE STORY

    It's Quake style:
A couple of guys decided to kill each other and you can be one of them.

You see that? GUYS. Your suggestion is conflicting with soldat's core story.

And everyone would not choose their gender. I bet you if this was implemented 80 - 90% of the "females" would be guys.

The rest of your suggestions are good, exept the water thing will not be implemented because MM won't edit the map format or some feck.

Seriously, do you really think a pair of mammary glands  are gonna make girls play a guys game?.

DO YOU REALLY THINK SOMEONE WOULD CARE ABOUT SOME PIXELS THAT SHOUT, "LOOK AT ME, IM A FEMALE ON SOLDAT." ON A LESS THAN 5CM CHARACTER.

My way of expressing my opinion was in no way a disrespect to anyone, stop being so defensive.

Also: Its pretty bad already with idiots who get on soldat to talk with their friends like msn or some shit.

** Nice Lag

Lobby chat:
I strongly suggest that there should be a lobby chat, where people can go to a select few rooms within the lobby, and find fights, clans, and so on. This would be a great help seeing as IRC chat is the most annoying thing I have ever come by.

Weapon ini inhancements:
There needs to be a more in depth ini setting for each weapon, like, explosive radius for the grenades and M79/LAW, scope zoom length for the barrett, able to turn automatics into semi-auto's, and so on.

Realistic weapon changes:
Not the weapons themselves, but more on how they work, when you run, you seem to shoot better, in real life, it is harder to shoot. You would know this if you played Paintball, I believe, add more bink, or worse aiming when moving, but not that dramatic. And reloading should be slower when running, because when I had to reload paintballs and the occasional co tank, it took longer when I was running from fire.
**Soldat is a fast paced game, besides you don't got jets in real life.

Widescreen support:
Just simple black bars across the screen or something, I am tired of not seeing the entire game.

More will be added soon, when I get less bored of typing, because I also have a blog to type.

[Xxypher]

Okay, this may be necro-bumping, but I do not want to re-make this, because I really want EnEsCe to take these into consideration.

[-Major-]

eC even made a 1st april joke about select able  gender. the water and explosive polys would requier recode of the map format. lobby chat will happen. all realistic players would start to hate realistic and stop playing it. only good suggestions are the widescreen black bars, and weapon.ini enchantments.

Isn't this already gonna be in Soldat 1.5?

You are able to play with a widescreen....

You will need to register though.

IMO, stretching looks better than increasing the resolution, and you don't need to register to stretch the window. [whine]I hate it when people post huge ass screenshots with weird, out of place interfaces.[/whine]

Also, he's probably referring to fullscreen.

+ all but woman(useless) & realistic thingy...i mean wtf
