    Looks like the master query and account handling servers are dead right now, probably due to the game's immense popularity. I havent even been able to make an account, or refresh the server list yet. But I did manage to customize my player and make him look uber cool. You can also set up your own LAN game if you like as a dedicated server from the start menu. Then start soldner and join that. You can customize the server by "administrating local server" then entering the password (Default: wings).

    Check out my custom Söldner:

    I was able to connect to a server for a while, but either the game is still really buggy, or my computer sux, or both. I crashed to desktop after playing for 5 min. :(

    Total Piece of SHit!

    I tired for over a hour tonight with the new Demo to play and never connected once. They have lost my faitha dn i will not play even when they fix this. What is it with people letting game companys get away with this crap 90% of the games are POS now..... Im pretty upset i waste a hr to download and a hr and and half trying to connect to servers. I have a uber system with CAble connection so its frustrateing.

    Yes, I think they really should have prepared a LOT more than they did, I have heard a lot of people being angry.

    I played for a solid hour tonight in a server I was finally able to connect to, and god damn that was some of the most fun I have ever had in a game. At one point I was being sniped by someone in a tower, so I hastily equipped my panzerfaust II and turned his platform into a hole. I really love the animations, they are very fluid, a nice change from the battlefield run (You know what I am talking about). Vehicles seem a little wierd to drive, they seem to follow your camera instead, but once I got the hang of it, they worked quite nicely. It's really cool to see all your team mates taking cover, and popping out to fire, it gives a real sense of atmosphere. I also love the interactivity of the objects. Run over a fence, it breaks, run to a window, and jump, you roll through it, breaking the glass in a single fluid animation. The game itself, is virtually lag-free, I Wings can fix the connectivity issues so that players will be able to actually experience the game, not just customize their character.

    I was able to play for 20 min on a server before I crashed to desktop (is anyone else getting this?). The best way to describe the game is Battle Field except there are a lot more guns, which you have to "pay" for as well as kits, body armor, and thermal and night vision goggles. There are also purchasable vehicles and the ability to blow up everything on the map. I?m not too sure how the pay system works but I assume it follows the line of ?the more things you do to help your team the more money you get? there is also a team fund, which can be used by all team members to buy things. Personally I?m not a big fan of the whole money system in FPS because it just helps the winning team and makes it near impossible for the losing team to turn the game around. But maybe this game will be different?
