Soldat 1.4 Released
FliesLikeABrick writes "Soldat 1.4 has finally been released. After 19 months since the announcement, this version adds multi-byte language support, many new features available to registered players, a ton of bugfixes, and a new lobby server and protocol. It took a lot of time and effort, but the largest update to Soldat has finally been posted and made available. While there are surely going to be some new bugs introduced, the new version is available for free at the game's site. From the site: 'Ladies and Gentlemen, I know you have all been (im)patiently waiting for Soldat 1.4. Thanks to all that contributed to this version. This version was a collaborative effort and it wouldn`t happen without you. ... So without further delay, it is with your encouragement, criticism and support from you all that I can happily release Soldat 1.4 to you all to enjoy. Please use the torrent link provided to help distribute Soldat 1.4 for others and ease server load, and seed for as long as you can.'"
0.9.33 in ubuntu fails. so sad 8( panda is not amused.
Soldat is like multiplayer Quake but it's a 2D platform game. You run around the level, bounce from platform to platform, use jetpacks, and shoot other online players.
It's a 2D FPS which I'm terrible at and quit in frustration a while ago. It's a neat idea though, it's like if someone crossed Counter-strike with Worms. It's pretty fast paced with low gravity but with realistic-style weapons.
(I just realized that 2D FPS is kind of an oxymoron, but just go with it)

Basically it's a 2D side scroller multiplayer shooter with lots of weapon.
Never played it, but it seems like a lot of fun
I didn't found something funny to put here.
It's more like someone crossed Counterstrike with Abuse. Heh, I remember playing Abuse over LAN in the school CS lab way back when. I don't think those computers would even have run Doom.

Many torrent clients allow you to limit your upload speed. Also, ever heard of QoS?
