I am sorry but I do not consider servers with 30 bots and 2 players really "active".  ::)

It would not be a zombie-server if there were no zombies to begin with, right?

Yes Soldat is half dead, and I'll give you the reasons why :

1) Almost no fresh blood joining the active communities because the advertisement is close to 0
2) No anti cheat for a while, some hackers/cheaters even managed to win the most succesful soldat league ever
3) Kids rather play mainstream games with awesome graphics, it's harder to attract them to play Soldat than before

So, let's get the game on Steam, somebody make a proper anticheat system and you old guys who are above 21 go make babies and get them to play soldat, this way Soldat will live forever.

Also, this is my personal thought, but I believe that we should get more people to play normal/realistic ctf, rather than knife only and all the other mods. (these are examples I have nothing against knife only players)
Obviously the last bit will not please everybody and many people will disagree but SCTFL and SRL are the most succesful leagues there are at the moment so if we want the game to be like it was we need more people playing competitively.

And if you disagree it's your total right, just my 2cents as an old fellow soldateer who's been around for way too long...

@up please refrain from pointless posts like that. If u dont have anything good to say better not say anything. It's not dead when there are still players who enjoy playing and some of them arent going anywhere anytime soon. If u already see soldat as dead please leave and dont make us mad. If you like soldat listen to your post and get on gathers/publics and boost activity by one player, step by step solutions.

@Boots/ginn: I can not ignore infantile talk like yours no more. While it may be true that Soldat has seen much better times than today, you have to note that there still is an active player base that is filling public servers. At peek times, I cannot join any of Bonecrusher's CTF servers, because all of them are filled, and that is enough proof for me that this game is not dead yet. As long as there is one single player playing this game - even if it is an offline bot match - I do not consider this game as dead. Stop this hyperbolism of stacked stupidity and do something productive for this game. If every person that whined about this game being dead advertised it in some forum or showed it to his friends in the well saved time, the situation would be a different one. Now, I wonder whether you care enough to use your energy for this cause? I think not so, or else you would not talk like that.

i tried getting an active forum going for the aussie community, and i've done my fair share of keeping stuff active. there is only so much you can do.


i appreciate the kind words though.

I've put in some effort, streaming (including posting schedules) and a few tutorials.
The game is pretty much dead, 4-5 servers being filled doesn't make it alive, the competitive scene still has some players but it's really going down hill. Btw according to your definition even atari games are well and alive.

What annoys me about many who claim to care for this game is this hyperbolism of calling Soldat dead. By definition, death is final and irreversible, and Soldat is far from that point. It's great that you two actually do something for the community, which is a lot more than most others do, but stop this exaggeration.
