Socom Beta Experiencing Problems

[GeneralWar]

Sony's Seth Luisi has apologized to thousands of Socom fans following some serious issues with the high-profile beta, stating the company hopes to have everything back on track by next weekend at the latest.

 

"These issues are causing abnormal latency, disconnects, long load times, login errors, and community features such as clans and stats not functioning correctly (or at all)." Luisi stated, "We are doing everything we can to resolve these issues as quickly as possible and you should see some improvements progressively over the next couple of days."

 

"However we do not expect to have the issues completely resolved until close to the end of the week."

Hold on let me get this right. /6 sent out a predetermined number of beta sheets for preorders. Then they say hey you can invite 2 of your friends for each code. And they didn't EXPECT the load?

 

Lets see we sent out 10,000 for preorder and each gives 3 users a chance to beta so that is 30,000. How many should you expect Seth? DUMBASS!

good observation

Yeah, Iv'e also heard from DatGuy yesterday that Sony is at fault too. They are in charge of server operation, so...........go figure.

I love it, I love it, I love it. That is posted on the news, and was posted Friday night. lol But to hear that they just weren't prepared makes me wonder if they ever read their own forums. Cause everyone's been chomping at the bit to play it, and everyone downloaded it as soon as possible. I even know w few people that took time off of work Friday to get downloading early. Using the previous math, 30,000 possible means the servers should have been prepped and ready to hold 60,000. That would be costly and for companies that are run with the bottom line in mind, the bare minimum is all that's going to be done.

You guys also have to remember that this is the BETA TEST not the actual game. You have to expect problems, some of the major. Thats the whole point of a beta test. I'm happy to be playing the game 5 weeks early FOR FREE so I learn to deal with the problems. If I payed $60 and this was happening then I would be pissed. But they do have over a month to get everything working.

[[-VR-] Tool_Minion]

Err, PeeBrain no one is getting overly critical. It WAS foolish knowing the following socom has NOT to allow enough dedicated servers. But again, we are getting to play, and people simply want to discuss it.

 

Kinda what a forum is FOR IMO.

 

Hell all we do is bitch like a bunch of old men sitting at McDonalds on a Saturday morning anyhow. :-X

[Peebrain]

That's where I'd have to disagree with you Tool_Minion. I hate when people... hehe j/k I just like starting shit sometimes.. =P

you guys are complaining about a BETA. Christ guys lighten up a little.

 

I am not sure but I think the beta is meant to work bugs out before the real game drops. Can someone help me here?

[GeneralWar]

I agree with u, its a test 4 problems, it'll be fine before game comes out

I agree with ya. Its the beta, and I'm glad they let everyone into the beta to work out the bugs before the game comes out. Lets just hope they are listening to all the complaints.

[GeneralWar]
