<div class="IPBDescription">Well, it's out.</div> Similar to the Battlefield games, except modern-day. <a href='http://soldner.jowood.com' target='_blank'>Soldner!</a>Try it if you want, I'm going to. I don't really have any expectations, so I'm not going to be disappointed if it's bad.

For one, I can't even pronounce that.
Secondly, it's not even a real word.
Third, it's a stupid word to relate to 'Soldier', much like spelling things with an 'X' to make it 'XTREME!!!'
In conclusion, this game sucks right away, and I haven't even clicked the link yet.
(Oh, fourth reason this sucks, the website is taking bloody ages to load even a BACKGROUND)
Not even babelfish knows what the hell it is.
Plus, the last few non-english-company FPS games I've played really sucked, so I'm not keeping my expectations high at all. About the only exception is Rockstar. The advantage the US has is that we have very lose standards on what is and is not allowed. You make a game with blood in Germany and get closed down, FFS.
And the game doesn't work well :/

Another positive and insightful post.... <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I'm not going to D/L the demo until someone says that it's halfway decent, or that I hear it runs on my comp (or PA endorses it)

Plus, the last few non-english-company FPS games I've played really sucked. Furthermore, the US has some of the losest standards on decency and all that. Germany, you make a game with blood, a game that features any violence at all, a game that uses 'harsh language' and you get practically sent to jail. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Wow. First off, there are a few very high quality non-US game developers, just because you only know of Quake 3 and UT doesn't mean there aren't others. Soldner is <b>indeed</b> in a foreign language, and what you say about Germany has <b>good reason</b> behind it. You try losing 2 World Wars. But that debate shouldn't even be brought up in this thread. Do you ever say anything that isn't cynical?
For the record-the strictest rules are violence between people and blood from people. If they're robots or 'aliens' it's usually ok (see CS:Germany version)
I've been waiting for a game like this my whole life, and I can only pray that Wings (the real developers and a subsidary of JoWood) has done it right... You'll see me playing under the name TangoOfDoom with a G11K2 and Mk. 23...

Ah, Vercetti, beat me to making these guys look like idiots. Soldat=soldier, Soldner=mercenary.
The cool thing about the final version of this game? The SP covers almost the whole world. Eventually, you could be the main military of your own nation, too.
And try this tactic: Get a helicopter to airlift a tank, then drop it through a house. Thats right, the Geomod engine, BUT BETTER!

The o has an umlaut, which is a German accent added to words.
It's actually Söldner.
Söldner is German for mercenary.
Proof:
EDIT: And have you ever heard of a certain game called Far Cry? Pfft.
EDIT2: Wow, I see a couple people beat me to it. Dahm.

1.) Get back to English class
2.) You've already been proven wrong on this point.
3.) See 2
4.) Your not allowed to complain about the connection speed while your still bumming your internet off your parents.
Seriously, you just came up with 4 retarded reasons why you won't even try a game. If you don't want to play it, and still feel like pushing your view of it unto others at least try coming up with something along the lines of "The game doesn't interest me very much" or "such and such game looks better". Much better 'excuses' for not even trying a game than "0ol0lo teh name si crap cuz I cant splel it in AOL!"
And Gift = Poison, Lust = Pleasure and other numerous words that sound like something but are something elses.
Makes me wonder if it's in some way related to the Xbox game in the works called Mercenary (which means I should probably check the Soldner website, but I wont - because I'm lazy).
I would try it, if my college's network didn't mean I'd get a ping of around 600 (...at 2am). It still downloads decent, plays like crap (used to get at least 200ms at 2 in the morning, but it's a degrading network). This is the multiplayer game that's supposed to support around 128 people, right?
I'll wait until the server load decreases and then report back.
got on a non-laggy server, not bad actually. Didn't do much with the vehicles though. The ability to destroy buildings, foliage, and the ground, is actually quite cool.
"Oh that guys thinks he can hide behind a brick wall huh?"
*pats rocket launcher, fires*
"where'd the wall go?"
