Over on the Ravenfall forums we have an ongoing thread that lists all these hilarious videos. So instead of 12 threads every time a video comes up, someone post the new video and I will modify my original post.

you should post that as a comment on the socom is dead videos on youtube.

[HogWild_101st]

Just wait until Slant Sux tries to introduce vehicles and maps that don't get you sniped 10 feet out of your spawn.... which we will have to pay for to play.

[SEQUOYAH]

Dude, Not sure who the comentator is on these videos, but you have some great talent! You have my rolling on the floor at 5:30 in the morning laughing so hard, I wake the kids and wife up!!

 

GOOD STUFF!!!!!

they will never have vehicles on confrontation.

I never played SOCOM 1 and 2 online. Even as a SOCOM "virgin" I can see that the previous games were a hell of a lot better. I am a big proponent of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!" Nothing wrong with polishing it, just don't fix it, you'll fuck it up! Which obviously they did.

LOL. Irish, you also have to remember most gamers memories don't last longer than the game they are currently playing. Previous Socom's did have problems, some of them HUGE. Quick sniping. That was a problem we had to deal with forever before Zipper finally got off their asses and fixed it. The lag is about the same, that's a big one I can't believe people don't remember. You "virgins" think it's bad now? There used to be guys that would run in place for 20-30 seconds and you couldn't kill them, then they'd warp all around the map insanely fast and people would just fall over dead. On thier screen they were running around normally. We won't even get into the lag switch users that zipper claimed multiple times to have put a stop to, only to see people still using them incessantly.

 

That being said there are a few things they shouldn't have changed. But they did, and it's not that big of an issue. The biggest one imo, being the quick swap issue.

 

I do not believe the old games were a hell of alot better. The game dynamic of this one blows the other out of the water. As soon as they fix the buggy shit, there will be no question which versions are better.

[IRISH BULL]

Let me ask this, how do other games seem to not have problems on line? Now, I'm really curious, I'm not being a smartass. I only know from CoD3 and CoD4, and there did not seem to be any issues when on line. In the sense there wasn't much lag, the load times were great, the party system worked.

 

Now of course they definitely had there problems when it came to lack of functions, no real clan support and CoD3 didn't even have stats or mic usage. But I don't remember any issues in regards to lag or load times.

So Does SOCOM have problems now because its trying to pack to much in. I mean, do you have to sacrifice one thing on a game to have other functions present??

I'm glad you told me this. That's why I'm so curious about SOCOM. The way some people talk about previous SOCOM's, if you didn't know, you would think the game was perfect.

one can understand having those kind of problems back then. But i mean today? NEXTGEN and still having issues, that kinda sucks.

[BigMoneyNacku]

Irish, that has been my question forever. Even on the ps2 there were other games that didn't have the online and lag issues Scoom did.

 

Don't get me wrong. /6 did screw up a few things. Some of the changes are just worthless. Most of the problems are the online navigation and menus. But to me, those are things I can live w/o for awhile. Yeah it sucks sending invites and following your clan mates, but everyone seems to be getting by without.

 

To say that the old games were perfect is very laughable. I really think it's a matter of short memories on most people's behalfs. That and the game was released partly finished so every minor detail became a huge one.

 

Granted the game has only been out a few months, but I shut my ps2 off in disgust with Socom at least 4 times a week. It got even worse with Combined Assault. I have yet to get to that frequency with Confrontation.

 

Maybe people are right and I'm one of the lucky ones, I don't know. Last night almost every clan said they had lag issues in wars. I didn't see any problems in our war. I can't speak for DC, but I'm pretty sure they didn't have issues either. I see crazy shit in pubby rooms from time to time, but not like others say they do.

Yea, God forbid grenades, mines, and claymores actually kill someone. Or the maps be large enough that they don't funnel you into one of ONLY two ways and promote a camping mentality and makes the game very boring. I loved the convoy maps on S3, because you had to have a plan and use teamwork to be any good at them. Which is the same reason they were so unpopular with the masses, the map required actual thought.

I still love Socom.

Okay, finally finished watching all the vids. HALARIOUS!! Great comedy bro. I am looking forward to more of these. I seriously havn't laughed this hard in a long time. And a GREAT Hank Hill voice to bro!! ;D

[WARPIG]

The sad part of it is... he in spot on, on 95% of his points. I've gone back to S2 till they get this shit right.

 

ReilhelawwWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!! ;D

[Xx-CHURCHY-xX]

His videos are getting REALLY fucking annoying now. He was funny when he created videos covering one or two simple points and flipped out over it. Now he's getting too busy with his video editing software and it's just plain stupid hearing him make stupid sounds for 3 minutes.

 

I laughed at first.. now I just say the guy is retarded
