Throughout time, the Soldat community has been an inseparable part of the game. Even though video-gaming culture is huge now, it's quite nontrivial that a small indie game, that was initially developed by one man for a good portion of time - gained such popularity back in the early 2000's.
Players were always involved in many aspects of creating sub-communities, tools, new content, media, streams & scripts. Some members of the community even became also part of the beta, weapons and developers teams, for the sake of improving the game constantly.
Soldat couldn't have gotten this successful without each one of the above mentioned soldiers.
Discord

Soldat's Official Discord Server was initially created by manofoneway on 9th October 2016, nosejj joined the early efforts a week later. Within less than a year dozens of users turned into hundreds. Eventually, Soldat gather services and admins were ready to migrate. XvayS (SyavX) started working on a gather bot from scratch. And when gathers started, oldies started reappearing, as well as some new souls!
Unlike in the past when many communities were torn between private servers and forums, Soldat Discord aspires to create a communal hub, in which Soldat players of all sorts can be gathered to play, discuss and enjoy content related to Soldat. The goal of the Discord server is to create an active, united, vibrant and revitalized Soldat community. As well as provide quality services such as gather and servers rental.
