Socom 3.

Who's going to pick it up? I pre-ordered it on Amazon.com. Should be a great game.

it's out today i think

It came out today by me. I played it the last 3 hours & it was a total buzz kill. Maps are way too big, lag as usual, graphics arent as good as expected. The only fun part is driving the hummer with 5 people in it. The game kinda reminds me of Star Wars Battlefront which was a bust.

SOCOM is a solid series. However, i sold my PS2, so i miss out now

I got it. Name is BlAcKNoVa on it.

It's good, but has some problems. I think personally it was rushed a bit. Has a few annoying bugs, such as stats not updating quickly enough (can take a day or so sometimes), getting stuck with a damn SASR/F90 (terrorists) or SR-25/HK5 (Seals) and not being able to switch unless you re-join. Hit detection is still garbage too imo.

With that said, I'll probably add another 800 hrs or so of my lifetime into the SOCOM series, and shitloads of $$$ on new controllers/mics that I end up breaking over the frustration of the horrible hit detection.

I haven't noticed any lag whatsoever. And the graphics? They look the same if not slightly better IMO. Only thing I noticed they toned down a bit was the character models, but it's not really that big of a deal anyways.

Maps are big but for the most part I think they're really fun to play in. Killing Fields owns! The two new modes Convoy and Control are actually very nice additions aswell. I'm in love with Control.

I was a bit skeptical when I first went online with it. It seemed just so not SOCOM II...but everytime I get on I'm enjoying it a lot more. Once the clan I'm in (we have about 10 of us with the game right now) gets a few more people and start having wars, the game is gonna get super fun. Can't wait.

just got socom on PSP. hard to control

Posted by wizniz on Nov-10-2005 23:28:

compared to other available mmo fps's out there this is a dissappointment

Posted by Emil on Nov-11-2005 03:54:

Yep, Socom 3 sucked ass, the single player that is, I don't play online. They took away alot of commands, like stealth to, attack to, etc. Plus the Bravo team and Jester are getting stupider with each version.
