Wow that is the closest 'clone' of soldat I have ever seen...

It's like they have taken soldat and added all the s**t you see in every other game - ranks, achievements, must-have-3d - so that the idiot gamers that don't realise they are buying the same games over and over again will buy it. Oh and it has lady soldats.

By the way, this would fit better in general discussions.

[jrgp]

Looks more like they tool Half life 2, turned it sideways, and locked you into that side view.

hmm. It does have other similarities, like "Double Kill" and so on. I'm sure it might have been inspired by Soldat.

[DarkCrusade]

Is ... is this Soldat2.1?

[croat1gamer]

Its a horrible Soldat port from 2d to 2.5d.

Gameplay footage
This is great example of nowaday's show off games. Look how fuking clumsy that game is.

[croat1gamer]

Wow, even the anims and movement in Soldat are more fluid than that.
And enormous nades are enormous.

[PANZERCATWAGON]

this game uses the same screaming death sound effect for every kill. thats a quality of dedicated design. im sold

[Blacksheepboy]

Super Smash Bros + Soldat + s**t.

Looks like Half Life 2? Ugh, as I looked at the screenshots, I was thinking that if they made the game more rustic (like HL2) that I'd like the graphics better, but instead the game looks cheesy, and game play gimmicky.

Eh, watched the video. Everything about it is awful. Nothing more needs to be said.

I now appreciate Soldat a little more.

[DorkeyDear]

I hate the idea of 2d side-scrollers with 3d gfx;
except little big planet

And in addition, that pandemic failure costs.

[Espadon]

pandemic failure costs.

Praytell what does that mean?

[DarkCrusade]

Is pandemic similiar to global in this context?

[Horve]

that pandemic failure = that motherf**king game on that motherf**king plane
costs = costs dinars or shekels

[Furai]

It's nothing like soldat. It's not even fast paced...

[L[0ne]R]

Made me puke...
Just another Soldat clone redesigned specially for mainstream 3D pigs.

If a game plays "flat" - it should look flat. In such games to create a feeling of depth parallax effect is the best solution. Full 3D is distracting and just doesn't fit the style.

Agreed.

[iDante]

I now appreciate Soldat a little more.

That game looks terrible.

[Graham]

Hey at least it might have normal ctf servers and not the gay stuff that seems to flood soldat lobby.

Where are you people going with half life? Its 2d Unreal 3. Hello? How cant you see this. No way am I paying for that.....
