Socom Confrontation

**blkformula95** · 10-13-2008, 11:13 AM

i was lucky enough to get to beta test the new socom, and if you are a fan of s1 or s2, this is what weve been waiting for. tight maps, no fucking vehicles, just socom 2 style fun. beta had some connection issues, but the last patch resolved them. slant six has done what zipper interactive could never accomplish: listen to your fanbase. my psn handle is neondeth hit me up to play some frostfire.

no vehicles eh? imo that's what ruined socom. i had a tremendous amount of fun with the first socom but never got into 'em after that.

i need a headset anyway for my eashl team in nhl 09 so i may have to get this. ill hit ya up if i do pick it up. looks pretty good from what ive seen. just out of curiosity though, are there rocket launchers? i hate rocket launchers lol.

well, yes there are At4's and rpg's, but with the encumbrance system you are slow as all hell while carrying one. also, with that said, in the character creation menus there are different armor types for both torso and legs. so theres light, medium and heavy for torso and the same for legs. if you go with even medium armor and a rocket, you are slower than christopher reeve with a flat tire. also i noticed after watching the trailer online, that the rockets in the game dont look retarded like they do in the video. that video sucks. the actual gameplay for the beta looks beter than that shit
