Why don't we get some games going tonight in a private room?

i'll be around to play with everyone. Played with tree and a couple of others and had a good time.

the tower on Crossroads is in the same place. One thing that makes the game feel different is that the shadows make it much harder to see people. Makke sure you get a good scope on your gun before going out into the wild. I use the acog scope on my m16 and it works good.

Oh and Ice cream, they seem to have made the grenede throwing a lot shorter distance so you need to be at almost full power to make it go overhand. I am actually very happy about that because any SOCOM vet. knows that early in the round grenede throwing was out of control on ps2 versions.

Yup...the first 30 secs to a minute was all out grenage toss fest on socom 2. Much better now. This game isn't halo, it's socom. You should be able to toss grenades that far. It wasnt realistic.

So all of the crossroads landmarks, the tower, red room, fish market, seals base, mercs base, the 2 half walls etc. are all in the exact same place ?? I dont know what it is but it seems a little different to me.

I think the layout is exaclty the same, so ya everything is in the same spot. Its just all different scenery. Furniture, TVs, plants, cars, bikes. They also took some things out and added a few new nooks. Once i played the map a few times it all felt familar again. It was strange at first though.

Very true, the landmarks are in the same location but with the new detail to everything, a few places being more open and the use of colors and the small things do make it awkward at first. I'm used to it now and it feels right, but with the seals base a little different and the definition on things its is very easy to feel as if it changed more than it really did.

That can't be a good thing. Even more people to bog the servers down.

Re: Socom: Confrontation (PS3)

I just did as well. It will be my second because I was one of the lucky winners of Extremegamers give away last week. I can tell anyone who gets the game tonight DO NOT JOIN A CLAN!! there seems to be some problems with the community system and it boinked mt eton_rifles psn name. I had to make a different game just to play but I am going to see if downloading it another time with a different code will make a difference.
