Is the developement of this game still alive ?

[Madow]

I suggest you just rip all the portal code out and fix the bugs before doing anything else.

Yeah, agreed. I suggest to not add anything new at all and just focus on fixing the bugs, one by one. The latest features in 1.5 are so useless.

[DarkCrusade]

Stupid trolling won't do the trick, scarface.

[darDar]

why you are all against the portal ?
its a good thing to avoid cheaters
it will help new players to stay with soldat, cause there is the opportunity to put manuals in it.
it makes game kinda more dynamic cause you can add friends - immidiatly join the servers they re currently playing on.

Announcements can be immidietly seen for every player on login so even guys who re not on soldat forums or on IRC knows whats going on.

Stats / Ranks are a reason to continue playing for new players.
There can be better stats about activity of soldat (how many registerd accounts, how many inactives, and so on)

It doesnt change anything of the gameplay and i would like to know why you all are just against something just because its new.
Of corse the Portal is not the primary thing which is important to work in new soldat version but still your opinion is confusing me.

[p0ppin]

I'm not against portal, but I'm against the priority that it was given over the much-needed bugfixes.

The Dev's "grew out" of Soldat, but refuse to let it go. You have no logical reason to continue coding Soldat, you're tired, bored, and have different plans.  The only thing I see from holding you back are reputation and money, too much weight on that will leave you far too unsatisfied.

In the same way that MM outgrew Soldat and passed it to you Ec, why not do the same?  You do not want it anymore, all the players want is the passion.

Pretty frills and awkward features aside, just give us someone who wants to develop.

I don't think they're obligated to let it go. It's their product and they should be allowed to do whatever they want with it, even if it means ignoring useful suggestions.

It's kind of rude demanding they hand it over to other people though.

[Rai-Dei]

Suggestion != demand.

Merely the thoughts of a worn-out player, Soldat is tired.

Any business can do this with a product. The reason they don't is because they like having the product make money

Fancy that

It's kind of rude demanding they hand it over to other people though.

When it's clear neither Enesce nor MM wants to develop Soldat (Enesce outright stated that in this thread), it's completely reasonable to do so

[scarface09]

We should make a petition. Who wants Enesce off the job and should get someone useful (meaning someone not useless, for example Enesce) like Shoozza. Who's with me?

i think we should wait with that petition untill the new patch is out.

[darDar]

i think we should wait for more replies of MM & EnEsCe.

[Stuffy]

Well, the response of MM was crap in my eyes, he did not even read the topic.

HE'S BUSY, MAN

This is my favorite part, since it's so much more relevant today than it was a year ago:

For me EnEsCe failed in the public relations realm but I do not blame him for that because really I don't care. What matters is if he delivers a new Soldat version or not. The game is all that matters in the end and never forget about that.

[Illuminatus]

wow...this was 15 months ago...time flies fast.

[xurich]

And we're still waiting for the same version that we were waiting for then!

[Veritas]

Yes, but there's no reason to only have a single developer.

[L[0ne]R]

Petitions are useless IMHO, and most of the time are not taken seriously no matter how many signatures they have. It is especially true in case of Soldat, whose developers keep ignoring the common sense.

[scarface09]

It was worth a try...since no new version I have resorted to playing CSS so you have already lost one "used to be" active player.

[darDar]

the current sctfl is the worst in soldat history obviously. 85% of the daily discussions are about hackers and stuff.
i dont get it why neither EnEsCe (who is responsible for the CURRENT status of soldat) nor MM ( who still got the power about it) cannot use 30 mins to read the whole thread, to think a while and find a solution by giving a more than 2 sentencese text.
