Soldier Front looks like a mix between Counter Strike 1.6 and Counter-Strike Source, but with a distinctly Asian feel. If you've played Combat Arms or WolfTeam before Soldier Front will come second hand to you, as all three games play very similarly. Earn money by getting kills and winning rounds and use money to purchase new weapons in the game's weapon store. This is a tactical game which means you'll be killed by just a few bullets, no bunny hopping and dodging rockets, sorry folks, this isn't Quake. When you create your character, you can pick from one of several factions or forces such as Delta Force (USA), Spetsnaz (Russia), GIGN (France), and four others. Your faction choice only affects your character's appearance. There are a few faction specific weapons and equipment, but this is not a major component of the game.

One of the most frustrating things about Soldier Front is that unlike other online FPS games, you don't simply join a server at any time then leave when you've had enough. In Soldier Front you must either create or join a room, then the host must set the game rules and start the game. Once the game starts, players are penalized for leaving before it finishes. At first this seemed like a good feature, but when you're in a large team game and half your team leaves, you're still stuck finishing a 2v6 game since leaving would cost you experience. Multiple servers that players could join freely would have been a much better system [Think Counter- Strike].

Another problem I encountered when I played was the constant abuse of bugs, which allowed players to go 'inside' walls where they could shoot at anyone on the map without being attacked themselves. I found at least once person abusing or attempting to abuse this in every game I was in. Hopefully the game's developers will address these issues. Soldier Front is not the prettiest FPS out there, but its one that will run on a lot of machines and the RPG elements of progression will keep you hooked. Soldier Front is worth a 'shot' if youâre interested in FPS games.
