I do not avoid women, GAF, but I do deny them my essence.
I was going to post something obscure to prove you wrong...methane47 said:
But then I saw the post you were referring to and I knew that I was wrong in the assumption that it wasn't that bad. It is.

When is this game coming out? The first Socom game was the first online-enabled game I played and got hooked on it pretty bad. Loved the hit-detection and no-life bars from the first. Loved the rounds/no-respawning and levels. Are they bringing back any old fan favorites, like Frostfire or Desert Glory? Is Boomer still out of the game? 
I can't wait.

No Frostfire im not sure of but i think there were reports of a desert glory? (Doel help mee)
Yes the idea is better, but i wonder if you carry an M60 and a RPG you'll be running as fast as normal human beings walk. It was pretty stupid in Socom 3.Doel said:
Probably, I know the graphics were bad with the original socoms but atleast a terrorist looked like a damn terrorist. That guy looked like an american wearing a halloween costume.Sol.. said:

also seems like they give you the option to wear some name-brand sneakers.
Frostfire, Desert Glory, and Crossroads are in the initial release. There will of course be DLC as well. Look forward to that tooVerboten said:When is this game coming out?

There are no "terrorists" in this game. Sony restrictions after they got into some legal battles, I guess they just want to completely prevent any problems so they are "Mercenaries". Slant Six is doing an admirable job of trying to get some terrorist looking people in there though without completely making it obvious.Arsenic said:
And yes you can fully customize your character for each side.

I'm not sure if this has been posted, but here is the boxart:
Sneak peak at awards.
I'm really happy about this. It's going to get people to use different guns and such, like Resistance. I assume that many of these will be tied to Trophies as well.

I like the boxart and I like trophies. Now where is the open beta staying .
Private beta started already? (upper left corner on the character custom. screen)
I don't like the interface, it's too clean, too less green.

Just announced at SOCOM.com, the SOCOM Confrontation open beta will be starting on September 1st and going till September 30th. All details are here.
I'm happy to be able to share information on the SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation Public Beta.
When does it start?
The SOCOM Confrontation Public Beta will start on September 1st and end on September 30th; a whole month of SOCOM goodness.
How to Get In?
There are two ways to get into the SOCOM: Confrontation Public Beta

If you preorder SOCOM: Confrontation at GameStop, not only will you be able to access the SOCOM: Confrontation Public Beta on day 1 but you will also be able to share the code you receive from Sony PlayStation with two friends as well.

We want you to spread the word about SOCOM and share the experience with your friends so get down to your local GameStop and pick up your voucher or pre-order here.

This information only applies for North America. Details about the SOCOM: Confrontation Public Beta in other parts of the world will be announced by the regional Sony Computer Entertainment offices.
Let the Games Begin!
I havent paid much attention to this game(or previews alone, seeing how its all hype marketing these days) but how close or not close is this to the original socoms? I've played all the games, and loved the multiplayer, are they trying to make this more like socom 2? also, do they have the pre-order bonus beta in Canada?
