SHANE23

No they DO NOT have to be identical!!! You can have 2 completely different speeds now, as long as they are the same TYPE, 168Pin, 184Pin and so on. They will dumb down. You can have a 333 with a 266 as LONG as the RAM is the type your motherboard supports. You can also have 1GB stick with a 1/2 GB stick. Go to Crucial.com and put in your system and it will tell you what you can use.

Both reviews are accurate. You can't argue with their points and even the IGN stated they tried different configurations and still had the same issues. And I agree with IGN stating that this game should have not been released in it's current state.

Is there a 5 in your name..!? In my PSN name yes. I use to not have the 5 but for some reason when I created my user name on the PSN it wouldn't let me have SHANE23 and I got mine on launch.

LMFAO!! I was wondering if you were going to read what I posted. I thought you would get a kick out of it.

That is right! LOL And before some of you get all, "that's mean" like my girlfriend says when I give Seqouyah a hard time. It is all in our giving eachother shit and I do respect the indian nation and Seqouyah especially since he served in the Navy. ;D My family has a background of breeding, breaking, training and showing horses. My mom, who showed horses, loved the book Shane so that is where my name stems from, he was a cowboy and my mom was a cowgirl. #5 was my number when I played soccer and #23 came from my favorite baseball player, Robyn Ventura.

OMG this is the same Crusha that got ripped apart on the Sony forums? Telling everyone he was Autistic and that he had to have someone type for him? Get a life, holy crap you have some major issues.

I didn't threaten his life, I just threatened to take his wife from him. ;D

at least a little. SOCOM: Confrontation 1.30 Update Posted by Seth Luisi Hello, I wanted to provide a quick update to everyone in the community regarding the current status of the SOCOM: Confrontation 1.30 update. We are almost finished with development on the update. The team at Slant Six Games are wrapping up all of the remaining features and fixes which will be included in the 1.30 update and expect to deliver a final candidate to SCEA First Party QA soon. Once SCEA First Party QA receives the final candidate they will need some time to play through the update and verify that there are no issues with it. This takes some time as there are a lot of new features and the trophies themselves take many days of play to acquire them all. SCEA First Party QA has been testing the 1.30 update throughout development but they need to perform a final pass on the master candidate to make sure nothing has been missed. Once SCEA First Party QA has finished with their final verification we will submit the patch to SCEA Format QA who must also test it and approve it for release. SCEA Format QA must approve all games and updates released on the PlayStation®3. We will try to keep the community up to date as the SOCOM: Confrontation 1.30 update makes its way through the final release process. As I'm sure many of you have noticed, we've released some new Ranked medley games this morning. Based on feedback from the community, we added 8x8 and 4x4 Demolition medley games. We also fixed the respawn medley games so that they are actually “respawn†games and lowered the round time from 8 minutes to 6 minutes. This is just the first round of changes we have planned for the medley games. We plan on updating them again soon to offer more variety in the default ranked medleys. If you have any feedback on specific medley changes you would like to see, post it in the forums. Finally, I wanted to address some of the feedback we received from the Dev Q&A on Monday and specifically the Q&A regarding joining a friend’s game directly from the friends list. As mentioned, this is something that we are actively investigating and looking to see if it is possible to include in a future update. I can say that it will not make it into the 1.30 update but we are looking to see if we can make finding your friends’ games easier in 1.30. Adding the feature to join your friend’s game directly from your friends list to the 1.30 update would significantly delay the 1.30 update and we want to get the 1.30 update out ASAP as it really improves the game a lot. Some people took my answer to this question to mean that we will not implement the feature at all, which is simply not true. Regards, Seth Luisi Director of Development Sony Computer Entertainment America

Yes they are there but the lag is amazingly bad for so few people on!

As much as I agree with you on the point of monkey boy getting fired... I will say the game itself is a different entity then previous incarnations. This is online and made to have updates and dwl content a constant future. I think this is a much better model and we will all see how this is going to change how games will be created and purchased by us. I think we will get a lot of these things in the near future and a lot more dwl content soon. I do agree that the game as a whole was unfinished and there's no excuse for that. Just my opinion. Zipper's Office! LOL I agree the game COULD be AWESOME! IF all the features are implimented AND working properly! The CONCEPT is GREAT but ideas do US no good. Same as empty promises but until these things are implimented and FUNCTIONING Seth should have NO trust value at ALL and should be on the hot seat. He should justify his actions to us the consumers! There is NO reason we should STILL be seeing these server issues! 1+ month in the beta and 1+ month in release and we STILL have server issues, how is this in any way acceptable? In the Beta he even stooped as low as to blame us having poor connections, he litterally pointed fingers trying to devert the blame from him. Come on, you know and I know, if ANYONE did this so publicly they would be shit canned!

First off I want to say I am a huge Socom fan. Had Socom 1 on release and have met and played with some great people. Seth should be fired! No questions asked! This game is NOT done now let alone ready for release when it was released! There are SEVERAL things that are not in the product that were anounced to be in the finished product let alone the server issues. If I ever released something half assed like this I would be fired and I would expect it! All this Dev Q&A is blowing smoke, delaying and trying to satisfy the idioits that are happy with this half done game.

should be the homeowners. Her house and she bought as it was. They left it behind, to bad for them.

See now NEO's sig offends me. She SHOULDN'T have anything BLACK on!!

If you ever watched Seq play you would think he was asleep at the wheel ALL the time! LOL I have had binders of Socom and I don't think I have fallen asleep. There were times on Socom 1 and 2 where I had the house to myself for the weekend and I played through the night a couple of times! I know there were times in those binders where my eyelids were REALLY heavy then someone would jump around a corner, make me drop my controller and wake me up all at the same time.

Screw it.... I got Divx converter and will host it myself. Remember this is just a small sample, I recorded this during a war. http://shane.800ceoread.com/exampledivx.htm

So thats what a person says when he's thrown under the bus! Hahaha LOL YES, YES HE DOES!! LOL

You bastard! LOL I use a Hava HD but have to play in 480p in order to get a real clear recording for some reason. When I upload to a video host they change the format and the quality looks bad. So I am trying to find a way that I can stream them cleanly but for now if I have one I just have people download the file then play it. Here is a small example of the quality. I need to find a way to get the file to you, everyone converts it on me. Right click the link and save target as. http://shane.800ceoread.com/videos/example.mpg BTW I do not record with sound. Only because I play with my surround sound which is optical. I can record sound but it is only component, red and white but I need to change somethings if you want in game sound.

agreed. I don't see an issue with a sig. If someone is going to get upset about a sig then we better get Human Resources for UF and have a session on sexual harrasment.

Source? I have yet to see anything that states that. It is all rumor.

Yeah that part in the morgue was one of the grosses things I have ever heard. What did he call it? Cold something... Anyways... Next week should be interesting. Looks like Jax and his mom are about to have some problems. I think he called it ColdPlay lol That SOB is SICK! This show could go a lot of ways and I am hooked now.

LOL be careful she might whip it out on you! LOL

Dam there have been some serious shit going on with this!! Otto FUCKED that ATF BITCH UP!!

Actually I KNOW for a fact that yours WAS reset! There was a memo going around at /6 talking about you and they wanted to F with you! ;D

With all the issues it could be something they are working on and the server is just no updating online stats right now. They are probably still there but just not available or something.

SOCOM: Confrontation State of the Union Posted by Dan McBride Now that we are 3 weeks into the launch of SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation it is about time for a more comprehensive update straight from the developers. All of us at Slant Six would like to thank those active community members who continually exhibit their passion for SOCOM- you are a tough audience but we would not want it any other way. The launch was pretty rough on all of us but we want to let you know that we are committed to continual improvement of the game Patch 1.20 went live last Tuesday and it has met its goals: stability is much better and the server load issues seen in the first week have been mostly addressed. With this now out of the way, the team has turned our attention to the 1.30 update which will fix several features (including trophies and SOCOM: Confrontation Awards), fix a bunch of bugs and respond to some of the requests of the community. Here are some of the items planned for the update. Please note that some items listed may be delayed to a following update if additional development is required beyond what our schedule for the 1.30 update allows. This should not be considered a guarantee that these items will be in the 1.30 update, but we did want to give everyone a heads up as to what is on our plate currently. New Features SOCOM Awards and PSN Trophies DTS audio support Add HUD and scoreboard opacity Scoreboard invocation improvements (tap select for persistent scoreboard, hold for temporary) Spectator mode HUD turns off after brief interval Spectator camera look now respects user invert on/off setting Spectator camera pan now consistent with in game camera Add dive-to-prone Add lean control to d-pad Gear items stackable Extend post-round period Restrict RPGs and grenade launchers in ranked rooms Increase prone movement speed Adding support for lefty control configuration (analog stick functions swapped) Increase frag grenade effectiveness Prevent incorrect reload interruptions Bug Fixes Fix animation issue when prone rolling near certain objects. Fix remaining issues with statistics gathering and display Fix bugs related to equipping of C4 in breach mode Fix occasional audio drop outs Fix last remaining framerate hitch when other clients late join Fix remaining stability issues Fix hostages being affected by smoke Of course there will also be many additional smaller fixes included in the patch. Please watch this spot for updates as the patch moves through development and into QA/verification/deployment. We are also hard at work on an additional patch which will include the remaining community support features. The design and art teams are also making great progress on new content- based on some of the posts in the forums, many of you will be very happy with what is coming down the pipe. Thanks again for your continuing support, -Confrontation Development Team
