SHANE23 Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation Public Beta 1.30 Patch Incoming Posted by Seth Luisi We are happy to announce that the eagerly anticipated SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation Public Beta 1.30 Patch will be released on Thursday, September 18th, at 12:00 GMT/UTC (8am EDT, 5am PDT, 1pm BST, 9pm JST/KST). The SOCOM: Confrontation 1.30 patch addresses the following issues: Abnormally long network synchronization issues when some users in a game have a poor network connection. This issue causes 4-7 minute (or longer) load times when late joining a game. Fixed an issue where respawn game late joiners were sometimes stuck in spectator mode and could not respawn into the game. Removed the latency detection network test which was causing some users with poor network connections to receive the network latency icon (red X). Fixed an issue where clients with different client versions (patches) could play together in a default medley game. Fixed an issue where if the session master leaves the game, late joiners could not "green up" and late join into the game. Fixed corrupt characters in the European and Japanese EULAs and Server News. Fixed many join game issues and made joining a game quicker. We are still optimizing this. Fixed an issue where if you add and then remove someone from your block list they were still unable to send you a message. Improved accuracy while moving (based on user feedback). Partial implementation. More improvements to come. Reduced the encumbrance penalty (based on user feedback). Changed the default round time for Medley games from 8 minutes to 6 minutes (based on user feedback). We are still looking into the following issues and they will be addressed in a future patch: Some late joiners have really bad framerate (5fps) and crash if they exit the game from the start menu. This happens at approximately 1/50 frequency. Some late joiners will get stuck on the round complete screen. This is timing dependent. Some users will crash in-game. This happens at approximately 1/100 frequency (games). Some late joiners get stuck on the loading screen, loading into a game. This happens at approximately 1/100 frequency. Green or corrupted particles appear for RPG, C4 and AT4 explosions. This happens at approximately 1/4 frequency (users). Further tuning and tweaking based on user feedback. Once the patch is released, we will continue to keep an eye out for any additional issues which may arise. Regards, SOCOM: Confrontation Online Team Quote

COWonCRACK Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 XD the increased accuracy is kinda gay, it actually took skill before. i hope its not hugely noticable, otherwords the random headshots will increase. meaning more spray and pray cause of the reload timesXD. Quote
Rage75 Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 J-Rite ]2 patches for a game that'll last a month? good sign so far from /6. LOL, it's a beta !!! That's what they are supposed to be doing. The proving point will be once the game drops and how fast they send out patches, fixes, etc. I'm really trying to be fair and objective with this thing and not rate the NAME but rate the GAME. Quote
Guest [+30]PuddyTat Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 im kinda bummed. make accuracy better while moving and take away encumberance slowness. why dont they put big smiley faces on all the soldiers. take away the rest of the realism in the game > Quote
CDBS14 Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 i think the accuracy is that sometimes when you run and you shoot someone that is also moving it seems like your bullets disappear and dont hit anything even though you know it must be a hit. Quote

It's a game. You really think it's real that you can drop 20+ feet and just grunt and continue on ? I think this is one of the biggest issues with games, trying to rationalize the difference between reality and a game. Quote
CDBS14 Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 make a game too realistic= people wont like it. there has to be a sense of arcade. i think americas army for pc was realistic like you died and you couldnt spawn until the entire match was over. People like fast gameplay real life deals more of stay back slow down, CAMP, gaming has to be slightly fast paced to attract a lot of people. I know it sucks but ohh well. Quote
DK_MaluNYMets Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 I cant wait to get back on and see how the game is. Quote
.-SEABEE-. Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 I can understand the hit detection issue. A lot of times when i shoot at someone, the shots only count when i aim behind them. If i aim directly at them, i miss.....maybe i'm just old and my sight is going bad though Quote
simihi Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 When I actually am able to get into games and play I hadn't really noticed any hit detection problems but glad to hear they fixed the load times and being stuck in Spectator Mode. Quote
[-VR-] Tool_Minion Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 So.........has anyone DL'ed this yet? Quote
Neoblackhound Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 Yup it was 258mbs or so, I haven't played much bin busy with life with playstation. everything seems a bit better. Quote

TOW-19 Posted September 19, 2008 Report Posted September 19, 2008 SO I see some differences with the new patch.......some good. The LOAD times are FINALLY down. But has ANYONE here been able to get their WHOLE clan onto one roster yet?? Quote

IRISH BULL Posted September 19, 2008 Report Posted September 19, 2008 I think the game is worse now. The load times have been dramatically decreased but the lag is ridiculous. I froze up twice, got booted, and got stuck in spectator mode. It was pretty much unplayable. > But its a beta, so hopefully they learn from their mistakes. Quote

WOW.....I hadn't had any of those problems yet. I think one or two people did online tonight, but I didn't hear that it was a widespread problem. Hmmm...... Quote
