Inventory
Players can own primary weapons, secondary weapons, melee weapons, grenades, forces, character equips, special game items, and more. Weapons are usually permanent, but in some special cases, there are temporary weapons. The money in Soldier Front is called SP. You begin with 60,000 SP and choose a primary weapon, secondary weapon, and grenades as you start the game. SP can be obtained by reaching certain ranks, buying certain premium items, or after filling up the SP recharge bar, which gives you 10,000 SP, although there was an event which doubled this amount to 20,000 SP for a limited amount of time. SP can be used to purchase weapons, character equips, and repairing weapons. G Coin is premium cash for the game portal ijji. G Coin can be used to buy weapons (as an alternative to SP) and also have items exclusively available only bought in G Coin.

Characters
You can choose from many forces to use as your character. Characters can be bought with SP or GCoins (depends on character). These forces have certain equips that can boost up stats.

National Tournament
Each year around September, a tournament is hosted by ijji for the search of the top clan. Clans must register and have valid proof of a passport in order to compete. The winning clan is then sent to the world tournament location (different each year).

In 2010, the prizes for getting into the top 3 included Dell netbooks, iPod Nanos, SP, and G Coin. The Special Force World Championships were held at South Korea where competing clans from other countries battled for victory.

The following shows the clans sent to the world championships to represent USA.

US West Server
There was originally three servers located in the west side of the US. As of now, there is only one west server and two other servers.

US East Server
In the April update of 2009, Soldier Front received the eastern server for players located on the eastern side of the US/Canada.

European Server
In the October update of 2009, Soldier Front received the European server for all players located in Europe. This has resolved latency issues for European players.

Graphics Update
Due to the games age, weapons were starting to look very unrealistic compared to modern day FPS games. In September 2010, Soldier Front finally received the graphics update, which renewed the looks of many weapons to be more realistic. The lobby received an entirely sleeker look. Kill icons were also updated to have a more clean look.
