Soldat News

Unfortunately, the planned steam release at the end of the year will not take place. We are lagging behind due to the slow pace of work.

A new, specific release date will be announced at the beginning of January. We apologize to all those who have been waiting, we are almost at the finish line but we need some time to complete the whole thing.

We still have to finish:

• New GUI (backend is almost complete and frontend is in the works) and its integration with the game. Soon we will show you how it will look like.
  
• Steam integration (should be completed by the end of the year)
  
• Release infrastructure
  
• Alpha/Beta tests
  

and a few other minor things.

# Changes in the team

Due to the long inactivity, darDar has been removed from the Creative Team lead position and we are currently looking for his replacement.

# Maps Revamp put on hold

We have decided to put on hold Monsteri's maps revamp project due to lack of funds required for its completion, we would hopefully like to return to it after the new version release.

# We wish you a Merry Christmas and a wonderful new year!

Hello Soldaters, this is our first devlog on Steam :-)

Steam Store

As many of you already know, Soldat has appeared on the Steam Store. Please remember to follow the store page and add it to wishlist.

Soldat on Steam will be free with all paid features known from 1.7.1. In the future, we may add a paid DLC as a way to support the game.

The release date is set to 2018, most likely it will be late December. We will cover the topic of steam integration in the next devlogs.

FAQ
1. What about reg keys, do I support the game by buying them?
Money from regkeys goes directly to THD and we have nothing to do with it. Remember that the keys will only work up to 1.7.1, in 1.8 there will be no registered version.
2. I donated X$, can you do Y?
We are open to suggestions but we have our own priorities regarding what needs to be done.
3. Can you pay for anti-cheat from the money you received?
The cost of an anti-cheat license starts at about 1000 Euros per month, we are unlikely to reach this level of donations.
