UF User Reviews: Socom Confrontation Cold Front

With the DLC finally released, Urgent Fury is looking for your reviews… Give it your star rating and feel free to add a review at the bottom.

Loaded with new features and content, this pack brings a brand new snowy Eastern European area of operations into play with two all new maps and three classic SOCOM maps for 16 to 32 players.  The classic maps are drawn from some of the most popular SOCOM maps of all time, each built from the ground up for the PS3!

Kit yourself out in snow gear and fight your way through blizzard conditions, joining a team of mercenaries or a squad from one of the world’s top Special Forces regiments  including the Russian Spetsnaz.

Try your hand at Arms Run, a new game mode that features dynamicaly placed missile launchers that must be activated or destroyed, depending on which side you’re fighting for.

Employ the new thermal vision scope weapon attachment to track your enemies’ heat signatures – vital in the dark and useful in daylight for picking out white camouflaged adversaries. In addition, we have new primary weapons to make use of and new attachments.

All told, this pack will have:

  • New Russian / Eastern European Area of Operation
  • Snow setting complete with snow effects, new snow gear and camo for both the Special Forces and Mercenaries, and thermal vision
  • New ARMS RUN gameplay mode
  • 5 New Maps
    o Uprising

    o Blizzard
    o Night Stalker
    o Vigilance
  • All new mercenaries characters with new looks and new VO.

About Shane Bell

I have been gaming since the very beginning. As the CIO of Urgent Fury, my sole purpose is to get the word out, manage the sites and equipment that make Urgent Fury run and build relationships in the Industry. I am a die hard Socom fan, but I really gravitate to most shooters out there. Though I won't lie, there are many non shooters that I like and now that PlayStation Plus is out there, I get a lot of the free mini games to give me a break from the norm.

    Great Job SCEA and Slant 6, this is a wonderful addition to Soxom and I can’t wait for more!!!

  • cagalindo

    The new maps are good gameplay still sucks.

  • Crusty_Demons

    The newold maps are great I wish they would have come out months ago. It’s still the same old Confrontation with it’s funny quirks but the new maps are nice. I’m glad it came out I was starting to get frustrated with MW2.

  • meauxpack

    Nightstalker, Blizzard and Vigi are all badass. I haven’t had a chance to play enough of either Uprising or Entrapment to be able to tell them apart much less figure them out. But I definitely am digging the Cold Front Pack.

  • MansfieldsFinest

    These maps brought back alot of players to socom again.Entrapment is by far my favorite.Im a run n gunner so the others r mostly snipers places to play.Game play is only as bad as u want it to be,meaning the ppl u play with or maps u play.Remember its a GAME dont let it control U ,,,,U control it,thanks 4 reading.

  • Al

    its awesome i love the spetznas armor and its great to play the old maps again, i wish there was one more patch to fix all the bugs though like shooting over railings and out of windows other than that its great

  • Marlne

    I am back on the Socrack also! Loving the new maps and I am glad that it finally has come out.

  • Nemesis

    I’ve also played more than I have in the past couple months. I like the map pack and the new guns. The Val and the M82 Sniper Rifle are my favorites and I’m loving the Thermal Scope.

  • IRISH BULL

    The maps are fine. The night version’s are absolute crap.
