SOCOM

[Socom]

i know the one for PS3 finaly coming out but i still play combined assault always looking for new people to own how many here play that also

[Epical]

Confrontation looked terrible in that new trailer they released, but I am an old SOCOM addict, so I'll pick it up either way.

Spoiler: show

MGO is the newest SOCOM game.

I've been playing the SOCOM: Confrontation Beta and I can honestly say with the recent patch everything works smooth. The major issues from SOCOM 3 have been addressed and it feels/looks amazing. At first before the 1.4 patch I couldn't even hear bullets in a game with more than 8 people because of the lag. Now, the only thing that gives any bother is an occasional latency when loading into the game. Even though it's just the Beta, I will say it's a great game and it plays very well. I'm hoping the actual product has a way to switch between your classes a little easier as I have different armor load outs for different classes. If you've played/are playing the Beta, my PSN ID is ice5007 :3 lets do a match.

Nothing will come close to s1

Truth.

Remember everyone at GameFAQS predicted "S2 = true test of skill"


Oh good times.

Been playing the Beta, 1.4 really fixed most issues. Game feels great. I'm excited for the final product to be released, looking forward to seeing the updated Desert Glory. Only thing I'm having issues with is the new reloading, which is taking some time to get use to.

[Epical]

Anyone have another promo code? I want to try it out before it ends in a couple days.

[Kyo]

I may just buy this game for the headset and be like paying 10 bucks for the game.

SOCOM Confrontation Public Beta Extended

Early next week, we will be releasing the SOCOM Confrontation Public Beta 1.50 Patch. In order to have ample time to test it, we are extending the Public Beta until midnight PDT Thursday, October 9th. We will have more details on the patch itself soon.

We are using these extra few days to test the patch but we are still on schedule to release in North America on October 14th. We appreciate all of your feedback and hope you have been enjoying the Public Beta.

Kinda curious about what could be in this patch, that they need to extend the beta. Either way seems like a win.

Awesome to hear about the beta getting extended.

I played a little bit tonight and I found Crossroads to generally be very dark. When it's in night mode you can't play without nightvision on or you'll get ganked at any time.

Solid game though and I'll definitely pick it up for sure.

How long till the games beta is over? I never played any socom games but this game looks fantastic. If anyone is willing too could you send me a msg with the codes I need please ? An have they picked a release date yet?

Can't wait.

lol, G^!!!! I remember when I couldn't figure out what that was for the longest time... That and I was in grade school when SOCOM 1 came out, jesus that was a long time ago... US EAST tonight i'll be running a room with some friends if anyone wants to play.

[Kaisho]

I had dial-up when I bought SOCOM 1 so I never really got the chance to play that online But so far I've had the most fun with SOCOM 2. I remember people being called "I dub scrubs" when they used IW-80. I can't wait for Confrontation though, it seems like a good mix of 2 and 3. As long as they get rid of the problems that are in the Beta from the actual game which I believe they will.

[Octavious]

Yea, the more I play it I can see how polished it is. The only thing still bothering me is editing your load out mid-game. I've got a few classes that I switch between, primarily the usual light armor & sniper / medium armor & assault. However switching load out mid-round only lets me do the weapons and not my armor (unless that is what 1.5 would bring this week). It gets kind of annoying to have to stick with medium armor if you want to grab a sniper rifle and then decide to grab an assault rifle. Although I do see some specialization angle on that method, it's annoying. >_>;

Patch 1.60 and Beta extended:

The 1.60 patch for SOCOM Public Beta will be released on Thursday, October 9th, at 5 a.m. PDT. This patch addresses the joining and disconnection issues that players are currently experiencing.

In order to test this new patch, the Public Beta has been extended to midnight PDT on Saturday, October 11th. Thank you for your participation and feedback for this Beta.

Good to hear they are fixing 1.50, that went pretty bad.

[Epical]

Lol, at this rate the beta will end the day the game is released. I'm not complaining though. =D
