What's a guy to do in Soldier Front then?
Soldier Front consists of three main forms of
battle, and a single form of training.
Lets start with the most commonly found form of playing the game,
and any FPS game for that matter - The Team Death Match.
The
Modes
There are four main ways to battle it
out in Team Death Match.
You have your Blast Operations, which will be shown as (B) at the
end of the map title. In these maps, the red team must destroy and
objective with a bomb. The trick is that there are two bomb spots,
and the red team always starts quite far away.
You have your capture operations (C), where you must obtain an item
as the red team and then rush it to your base. This one is simple -
providing you don't get shot on the way home.
Flee operations (F) consist of running to the end of the map and
attempting to hit a specific point to save your back end. However,
your back end will always be revealed to the blue team, so watch
out when you're trying to get away!
Dual Operations (D) are the only ones where the blue team must also
obtain the objective. One item will be in the centre of the map -
Equal distance walk from both teams. It is the objective that both
teams must collect and then return to their opponents base with the
item. This is not the only way to win - Kill them all, and you are
going to get the item anyway.
Maps
There is no limitation to the maps that you can use in Team Death
Match. Every map that is available to you can be played on this
game style, so why don't I tell you what those maps are now?
A few examples of each map are shown below.
Desert Camp (B)
Your objective in Desert camp as the terrorists, or the red team,
is to destroy the tanks at either side of the map. No one knows
why, soldier, it's just orders! You have two choices - Wipe out the
opposing team so that planting the bomb is guaranteed, or take a
risk and plant a bomb with people still around. You might get
lucky.
If you are a counter-terrorist, your objective is to well... stop
them. It's simple - kill the terrorists or defuse the bomb after it
has been planted. Of course, if you die, you're not gonna be able
to help now, are you?
Missile (B)
Hey... You're a terrorist now. I
don't care if you tried to protect the tanks, you're helping us.
Get to the missile, or get to the control room - Blow the damned
thing up. Do that, or kill them all. Just make sure we come out of
this alive, and they come out of it without their precious
missile.
Okay troops. Now it's our turn to defend this missile. We have to
stop them from destroying the control systems, otherwise we won't
be able to launch this thing. And make sure that it doesn't explode
before it's even taken off, okay?
Plasma (B)
We're in luck! Those idiots broke
down in the middle of this random market, and the plasma trucks are
pretty much unguarded! Let's make sure that we get to them first,
and for the love of all that is evil, don't die on the way
there...
Right guys, the engines have stalled, and we're about three and a
half minutes away from getting back up. However, we have heard from
Intel that there will be an attack on our trucks by some terrorists
some time soon. We hae to protect them!
Train (B)
Ha ha! They got stuck in a train
yard! The fuel containers are ours to destroy now lads. Let's get
them while they're down! Oh, and if you find the fuel dumps a touch
too hard, the controls are also available for destruction. Not as
big a bang, but the same effect, if you know what I'm
saying...
Oh damn! Why is it always us?! I'm going to have a word with those
engineers, I swear they're trying to get us killed with all this
faulty machinery. Watch the fuel storage room and the controls -
Terrorists are bound to show up...
Hospital (C)
Hah! They think they can keep
that DNA away from us? The plan is to storm the hospital and take
the DNA by force or surprise, whatever works best. Make sure to
bring it back to the truck in one piece though - You're
dispensable. It isn't.
Right, the terrorists have word of the DNA being in this building.
What they want it for can only be summed up in one word. However,
in the current worry I'm in, I can't think what the word is.
Protect the damned DNA and I'll buy you all a beer. Hell, it's
Ireland. They'll give us a beet if we protect it.
Nerve Gas (C)
What is it with them protecting
the medical stuff? Why can't they let us take the item and be done
with it? Storm the building and take the Nerve sample. There's no
time for joking, we've only got a few minutes!
Guys, good job in Ireland. We protected the DNA well, but now
they're after this nerve sample as well. We have to make sure that
it stays in the right hands - Ours. Keep them out, and keep the
sample.
Shanghai (F)
Right, we do this mission every
day. Terrorists seem to love coming from China, but don't know
where to go. I'll tell you where. Get to the submarine and we'll
get you into America. From there, you'll receive your briefing and
proper training. Just don't die on the way there, okay?
Another group of terrorists is trying to get themselves into
America. Make sure they don't succeed - Blow them apart before they
can reach the submarine. It leaves in 3 and a half minutes, and we
don't want ANYONE getting on it!
Bridge (F)
It's a simple task for us today -
Get to the other side of the bridge. Don't ask me why, that's all I
got told. Something about getting us into the country easier... who
knows. Just get there, get yourselves into that car and get those
damn counter-terrorists dead.
Okay lads, this will be one of the hardest missions you might come
across. The terrorists could come at us from any direction at any
time, so we have to be wary of it. Make sure they don't get out of
here, or else we'll be in serious trouble.
Kinabalu (D)
Today is simple. We have to get
the dropped box and take it to our truck near to the
counter-terrorists. I guess they are our one problem - getting past
them and getting them away from our outwards route.
Our helicopter is waiting, as is the black box. Get it, and get to
the helicopter. Kill all the terrorists in your way as you get
there. There will be no prisoners after they destroyed that
plane.
Rules
All
you have to do in Team Death match is either destroy the opposing
team, or complete your mission. It couldn't be more simple,
surely?
There is actually nothing more to it than that. The only real rules
in the game are no glitching or no hacking. Skill is optional, of
course.
While some games may consist of Team Killing if yo shoot the
opponent, the only way for damage to be given to your team in
Soldier Front is to throw a grenade at them. This normalyl only
happens accidentally, however.
The Singles
Match
Again, singles has very few rules. Apart from
the team killing, the rules are applied the same way. Any weapon
may be used, and any map can be played. There is nothing more
satisfying then finding yourself the best player out of the 16
people in the room.
Clan
Matches
Exactly the same as a team death match,
except that all of you must be in the same clan to play. You must
also be playing against another clan. This can bring around better
team work, as you are more likely to have trained with the people
in your clan.
Training
Training is, at the moment, only available on
the Shanghai or Missile maps. The target of training is to destroy
the most targets in the room before the other players. This may
involve you being alone and practicing your "Jump Shot" on a moving
target, or just trying to get your aim correct from a sniper
bullet.
