IRISH BULL

When and if this happens again...you can count me in! I had a blast last year.

Is it a Sony building?

I would like to see more games available via DL. I love having Warhawk, HVB, and others on my harddrive. Its much more convenient. I wish I would have just got the DL version of SOCOM. I can't wait for The Punisher game to be released. That and Battlefield 1943.

I'm just gonna believe this is true because its so awesome.

http://www.weareplaystation.com/en-ie/Gallery/Picture-Detail/?pid=2080 Its a website called weareplaystation.com. Its a contest for the best Playstation related pictures. I submitted my 2 yoa daughter playing SOCOM. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Exactly! Don't think for a moment that Zipper isn't paying attention to the backlash that Slant 6 is getting. I believe they see what gamers want and what seems to be the biggest complaints, and make sure they don't make the same mistakes.

I don't know, it just seems a little unbelievable that they will have a game that has 256 players playing all on the same map. I have no evidence for this theory, just my opinion. If you read the article, Zipper designer Andy Beaudoin, says "Our primary goal with MAG was to retain the intense feel of eight-on-eight squad combats, where the player can have a significant contribution to a battle's outcome." I've read about that eight man squads before, but they really never explain how that is gonna work. The eight-on-eight comment has me thinking we are not getting the whole story. I can see it now, "Technically your playing with a total of 256 player, just not exactly all against each other. But your all in the same campaign." Hopefully I'm completely full of shit, but who knows. If its actually a 256 player battle on one map with tanks, jets, infantry parachuting in, that will be friggin' insane and awesome.

I have an idea that we are not getting the whole story on this. Yea, I think so. So I guess its not a total loss. lol Looks good on my fridge.

Save your six bucks. There really isn't anything interesting about MAG in this issue. In fact, the top headline on the front cover is different. It now says "Free! G.I. Joe Magnet Inside!"

My severe heterosexuality prevents me from clicking on anyone or having anything to do with a "supermodel" show with guys and girls.

Hey! You Got YOUR PSP in MY Automobile! Here is one pic that I thought was cool: http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/3876/citroenccrosserpsp01.jpg[/img]

oops double post.

That avatar is awesome BTW.

Tanx bro! I figured there didn't need to be another thread about 1.41.

Hi, All- Now that you have gotten a chance to download Patch 1.41 for SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation, I wanted to give you some updates and answer a couple of questions. I had the opportunity to talk with a couple of our producers and I wanted to share with you some of the things I learned. First of all, thank you for all of your feedback. The team continues to listen and tries to make improvements based on what you are telling us. Lag/Latency Improvements Hopefully, you can see their response in things like getting rid of the late-join hiccups with this patch. In future patches, they will continue to optimize bandwidth usage in the game to improve any further lag/latency problems some of you might be having. We will continue to monitor your feedback on these issues. It’s also important to remember that your choice of servers in Medley games can make a difference in your lag issues. Playing on foreign servers can increase your lag greatly. It’s important to stick to the servers for your own area. For example, if you are in North America and you play on a Japanese server, you will likely experience more lag. I’m sure many of you know that already, but there may be a few out there who still aren’t aware of it. Confrontation and Clan Rating One question that keeps coming up is what happens to your SOCOM: Confrontation rating when you leave a clan? Well, clan rank is separate and unrelated to your Confrontation rating. Your Confrontation rating is skill based and that doesn’t change. Your Confrontation rating is what is used for match making and the leader boards. Only your clan rating changes if you leave a clan. This was a design decision to encourage people to find and stick with their clans. Again, this may be something a lot of you know already. But I am getting a lot of questions about it so I hope that clears things up a little bit. Spawning Issue It has been reported that there are now some problems with spawning in random places since the patch. I wanted to assure you that I have reported that and they are investigating the problem. They will try to get you a fix for that as soon as possible Patch 1.5 I am hearing a lot of you wondering what is next, now that Patch 1.41 is out. Well the team is working on Patch 1.5 already. There have been a lot of changes and additions that you have requested and they are looking to see how much can be done for this patch. So you will see some community requested items. They are also planning for that patch to include the clan ladder and tournament calendar. We will have more information on that as we get closer to release of the patch. There are more updates coming. Although we can’t release any information on it yet, they are working on new content. Different Teams And finally, I wanted to stress to you again that Slant Six is totally focused on Confrontation. They do not run this website. This site is hosted by SCEA, who has contracted with some outside sources to run it. That includes David “Point Man†Brothers. He is a writer that has been hired to give us content for this site. He is not part of the Dev team. I know there has been some confusion about that so I wanted to make sure it was explained now. It's also already been announced that there will soon be a SOCOM space in Home. I just want you to know that will also be handled by SCEA and will not take resources from Slant Six either. Once again, thank you all for your feedback. I do read what you have to say and send it on to the team. I will keep sending your thoughts and ideas to them and together, we can keep improving and adding to SOCOM: Confrontation! Cindy Bowens Community Manager SCEA

Yea, no offense, but your grammer is all over the place. Hence, no one knows what you are talking about. Let me try though... Are you basically challenging any clan to take on your clan? BTW, you need to add the img code for your sig to work. This is what your looking for: Use this if ya need help: [im g]http://i628.photobucket.com/albums/uu2/REBORNevilloki/holypower2.jpg [/im g] Just take the spaces out between the "m" and "g".

Yea, I'm definitely guilty. I never thought I would buy this game until I started watching every gameplay vid and reading every pre-review. And I'm proud to say I'm glad I got it.

1. the flying bot is acquired after doing the SPAWN AUTHORITY MEDAL' date=' 8 people respawn on your spawn point with the tactician class. 2. the tactician rank up perk is the spawn point grenade, green for friendly and red for enemy. If 5 or 10 not sure on number spawn on it you get the medal, 8 of these medals gets you the sentry bot unlock. 3. to revive you need the gun, to heal yourself or someone else you give them the pack; but the pack is unlocked after the gun. [/quote'] Does the medic gun replace your revover? How do you actually call up the flying bot?

My point exactly. Because I know when I check the SOCOM.com forums, there were hundreds and hundreds of threads about being able to trigger a claymore while prone.

That is kinda what I thought, thanks.

Will a better graphic card speed up downloading videos? Basically, cut back on the buffering time.

So basically, they did NOTHING! But maybe fuck this game up further, which seems to be an impossibility. Oh wait, I'm sorry. Sounds like the being prone to trigger claymores worked. Gee....great...thanks....

Do you think that SOCOM could actually damage your PS3? Because I agree with you. I hate hearing that triple beep from a forced shut down, which SOCOM has caused me to do several times. In fact it just did it last night. The only thing I can think of that caused, since I sitting in the lobby, was a mesage appeared that a friend was online.
