For the last time, Zipper isn't making a SOCOM game.MorisUkunRasik said:Should I wait until zipper puts out their socom?

And the servers were down for maintenance last night. For the record, the game was flawless since Friday night.
It's just amazing the phases this thread is going through. When the servers aren't experiencing overload, its all "This game is so fun! I love it!!", yet when it's experiencing overload the posts turn to "I'm selling it on EBay, this game sucks!".
Christ people, have some perspective. The game hasn't even been out for a week, its been experiencing server-overload, its going to take at least a week to fix it completely.
Bamelin said:I should also add that the game itself is awesome. Somebody else in this thread said it's the "anti CoD4" hehe and yes that's kind of true.
Bamelin said:I agree with Doel. The whining in some of these posts is pathetic.
All online games go through this. Look at Warhawk ... it had the same issues and it's now considered one of the best online games on PSN bar none.
For the record I played for several hours last night. Got in easily and it was completely lag free. I realize this hasn't been everyone's experience but trust me when I say whatever the connection issues are they WILL be fixed.

Actually, all those issues are gone. The only issue now is server overload.JB1981 said:Probably has more to do with the fact that this game was beta-tested like crazy, was patched about 5 times during the beta to 'fix' the issues, yet those issues still exist on release day and have not been resolved. This is an ONLINE-ONLY game and the online is broken.
Perhaps it should have been delayed.

Nice try though.
Gameplay over graphics. That is what socom was always about.Eccocid said:ok i am new to SOCOM i have never played any SOCOM game before.
I loved the gameplay, i am ok with it but one thing that strikes me is graphics! Is socom something like gameplay over graphics? I am not a gfx whore its just they look unpolished. A huge screen tearing keep going all the time, character textures are not loading very well and frame rate is hoppy poppy.

Kabuki Waq said:its also a nice way for fanboys to excuse obviously lazy devs or rushed products.
You said that they didn't fix any of the issues with the beta, and I was pointing out that your statement was completely false. The game works absolutely perfect when its not experiencing server overload. It was godly on Friday night. The bugs and such that were in the beta are gone.JB1981 said:So the online works but it doesn't work because of server load issues? Seems like a lot of people are experiencing a non-working game. I know you're a Socom diehard, but you can't deny how difficult its been for many people to just simply sit down and play this game.
Pallaris said:wow, so the final engine performance really is like all those shitty pre release trailers. I knew something was dodgy about this game from the beta. If they can fix these issues with patches I might still take a look but framerate and screen-tearing = no buy.

Been answered about 10 times. Search function is your friend.Ken Masters said:where the hell are the reviews for this game?
Everyone on the game is friendly. It's actually quite amazing how strangers work together in the game and pretty much everyone is wearing a mic.dork said:any private gaf servers up. I need to play with some friendly people to get used to the game
chubigans said:Hey Doel, let me ask ya...as someone who is completely new to the SOCOM experience, is this game really worth jumping into? Or is it a bit too "hardcore"?
I played a little bit of S2, and I def like this game. The gamplay is solid. Idk why so many ppl are having problems, this is my 2nd time online and I had no problems logging in and getting into a room. No lag and playing 4v4.chubigans said:Hey Doel, let me ask ya...as someone who is completely new to the SOCOM experience, is this game really worth jumping into? Or is it a bit too "hardcore"?
KGKK said:so what is the state of the servers atm? Thinking of getting the game in an hour so.
Oh, it's very hardcore but the community has seemed pretty cool so far. It also has a pretty steep learning curve - you will get owned. A lot.chubigans said:Hey Doel, let me ask ya...as someone who is completely new to the SOCOM experience, is this game really worth jumping into? Or is it a bit too "hardcore"?
slider said:Hmm, can't be asked to read the whole thread. But it seems this is dividing opinions.
As a MP focused experience, how does it compare to my favourite... Warhawk? As much fun? Are the majority online really hardcore players? I like my online a little less intense.
I think in the end I'll probably pick it up - with the BT bundle it doesn't make sense (to me) not to.
Everyone starts off new. There are a lot of noobies on the game too, so it's not like you'd be alone. The great thing about the game is that the community is fantastic. Practically everyone wears a mic and is communicating. That will help you out a lot especially in situations where you aren't sure what you're supposed to be doing.chubigans said:Hey Doel, let me ask ya...as someone who is completely new to the SOCOM experience, is this game really worth jumping into?

I don't think it's the full game, based on the size. It's just like all the other mandatory install games.Maggot9 said:Can someone explain the logic in having to install the game to your drive when you buy the disc please.
