Socom : April 2011

http://www.joystiq.com/2011/01/14/socom-4-confirmed-for-april/

"After seeing its deployment delayed into 2011 way back in July of 2010, Zipper Interactive's latest entry in the SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs franchise finally has a more tangible release date: April 2011. The date was nonchalantly dropped in a Wall Street Journal article on PlayStation Move, which the game has become a key "core" title for. SCEA subsequently confirmed to Joystiq that its release is indeed set for April. Mark your calendar -- with a bullet!"

BOOM

I dont care what it's set for, it's when it actually comes out that matters.

I'm with Pounded. I just want the damn game to come out, though. It could blow and I'll still play it religiously for six months or more. see: Confrontation

If you would blow, I would allow you to play with me for six months on more. see also: Gay Loving with Crisco

Looks like I'll be buying Killzone 3. They've also said there "will be other ways to participate in the beta." For those who don't like/want to buy Killzone.

Yep. Or we realize its like Cofrontation.

As long as its got dedicated servers, great gameplay and the SOCOM feel I'll play the shit out of that game. Kinda getting tired of the COD genre, its getting a bit played out.

What I wanna see in S4:

-Ability to make custom RANKED rooms. In confrontation you could make custom games but they werent ranked.. how gay
-Bring back the lobby chat!
-Ability to KICK people from games
-Allow restrictions for games eg: No explosives, etc.
-An actual clan ladder system that works
-Purely 3rd person. I don't want the option to have 1st person or that gay over the shoulder view
-No health regeneration (I doubt it)
-PMN Mines!
- 1 Shot kill snipers and DE.50
- NO BODY ARMOR
- Victory Dances
- Custom Voice taunts
- Team messages
- Join from friends list
- No maps that take you 15 min to cross IE prowler from SC:CA

I think Zipper can do it!

btw this is prowler

The game is Uncharted socom remix, has no one seen the videos. There will be no socom feel, nerd ass kids will b usin the move stick thingy, and it will be mainstream. I don't mean to be Debbie Downer, but thats really the reality.

Your still gonna buy it, and love it. Im not really familiar with uncharted so i dunno if thats a good or bad thing. Anyways, well know in a month when the beta comes out.

Things change thats just the cold hard facts...The ps3 is a far superior system to the ps2. The graphix in confrontation were better the game play would of been ok I think if everything would have worked properly. I know most all of us played confrontation for a little of a year bitchin about it every game ( "man this game f_cking blows cock") Any ways Zipper has it back. All we can hope for is a better game then socom2. I know everyone says they want socom 2 hd, but everyone knows thats never gonna happen! Things have to chance to get better. All i want is for everything to work rite! Cod f_cking blows cock. I cant stand the respawn, respawn, respawn.... But I still play it everyday as will we when Socom 4 comes out good or bad! Durka will have 100hrs played the 1st week.

Prowler was a great map!

Lucky be lyin'. I fell asleep looking for the last guy alive in a war on Prowler once.

Convoy and Control were good on that. And everything was open. You had a ton of vehicles to check the entire map. IMO a well laid out big map.

Convoy!!! loved that game mode.

I miss those days, the days where rpgs were the shit.

I don't know if you remember but the thing that was so gay about prowler was that even if you could see the last guy with your scope chances are.. You could not hit him!! lol There were so many times where I would be shooting at a guy several times only to realize my sniper rifle doesn't have enough range to reach him! lol And all I was doing was revealing my position.


I agree about convoy and control though, those were some fun game modes. I still remember the convoy strategy we had for killing fields lol

People knock it all the time, but I had almost as much fun on S3 because of the killer game modes as I did on S2. Convoy was the shit.

Thats the beauty of Socom. After a while Im sure that you started looking at how far he was in your scope and made a judgement based off what you knew about your weapon.

Tomorrow we will finally start to see stuff regarding the multiplayer, as Zipper invited 15 people from their official message boards to play the game in their studio and at 8pm Eastern they will get to talk about it in whatever capacity they want. Friday will kick off the release of info from the media, who spent all day testing out the game today and should have videos, info, and screenshots when their pieces go live Friday morning. Personally, I'm giddy just thinking about this info coming, even with the game still a couple of months out.
