H-Hour World's Elite / SUCCESS! NOW ON TO STRETCH GOALS :)

[QUOTE="NEWMAHAY"]Socom on PC? I'll bit. I assume its relatively easy to get games on PS4 now too. Was their break up with Sony bitter?wakefulness

[QUOTE="WitIsWisdom"]Well thanks for the suppot man :)millerlight89

lol... I have been waiting for this game for a long time. Sorry I am excited for something in the gaming world... god knows it has been long enough.

Obviously I said thanks for he support meaning that if he spreads the word this has a better chance of happening faster... not because I have anything to do with it...

I don't care if someone bashes SOCOM I just find it funny that people that obviously have no clue what they are talking about bash it because they either have not played it, or are not good enough at it.

I built my clan around SOCOM years ago, and I have my own website for mainly that. If you don't like that then you can go cry in a corner somewhere...

**edit** if this game winds up being a good game, with the clan support alone it will be my most played game this console generation... SOCOM still has a rabid fanbase... if you think I'm bad, go to socom.com and post your bs there...

Seth Luisi is on the list of people that donated... lol

I guess he wants to see what he should have done... :P

Socom is so overrated by cows because it was literally the only semi good online game for the ps2. If you wanted good competitive online games then would have owned an xbox

[QUOTE="WitIsWisdom"]

I am a rusher in SOCOM games. Great clans have rushers, support, snipers, and objective runners... you have no idea what you are talking about.

For a respawn game their is a ton more camping in CoD.

I only play demolition and objective based game modes. You camp you lose.. easy as that.

WitIsWisdom

OMG you get to rush in and die! and then watch your team sit around for 10 minutes! So tactical! So entertaining! That's definitely hardcore. The more waiting, the more hardcore

Get Good

when you want to take off your training wheels meet me on a real game. Iwill rush your camping ass and dance on your body SOCOM style just like I have done to thousands of others who are all talk.

oh snap! so hardcore! Yeah! rushing straight ahead into claymores! so much skill! 

I need to view up on Socom games. Where should I begin? (I don't own a console btw, just a VITA.)

p.s. I'm interested in this in hopes of playing a not to grey and mainstream military shooter on the PS4. Am I heading in the right direction?

wakefulness

Look up youtube videos on SOCOM 1, 2, 3, and Confrontation :) Gamepay is great. Like nothing you have played. Clans are like family you get so close. You can play majorly competitively or anyway you want.

It has been confirmed that on this game there WILL be custom ranked rooms!!! :)

Meaning if you don't like explosions all over the place you can make a room on a server, turn grenades off, turn mines off, turn claymores off, turn other explosives like RPG's off. Then those things CAN NOT be picked in that room. It will be in room description and under settings. Only the person to MAKE the room makes the settings!

Other SOCOM user game modes include

Paintball- This is where everyone agrees to put SMG's or pistols on semi auto and fire one round at a time at each other like paintball.

Sniper no cross- an invisible line is determined between both teams. Everybody uses a sniper rifle and can not cross the halfway point.

Game modes likely to be in game

Escort- In this game mode you have to get hostages to an extraction point. The enemy side must either kill everyone on your team or kll at least 2 of the 3 hostages. If you successfully kill the enemy team or extract at least 2 hostages your side wins.

Extraction- Much like escort EXCEPT the enemy holds the hostages and you must steal them and take them to the extraction point. Killing hostages on ether side counts against you.

Elimination- First team to eliminate the ENTIRE other side wins the round. If you stay alive even if you are losing 5 to 1 you save the round and it counts as a draw.

Suppresion- Whatever team has MORE kills at the end of the round wins. Eliminating the other side counts as an auto round win.

Demolition- (my favorite game mode) A bomb is in the middle of the map. Teams must fight over grabbing it. Once a tem has it, they need to plant it at the other teams plant site near their spawn. It has a 30 second fuse and takes about 5 seconds to arm. It can also be disarmed in about the same ammount of time. Detonation is an automtic win. Defusing is an automatic win. Killing other team is auto win as well.

Bomb Squad- Introduced in SOCOM 4 but interesting. Three bombs need to be diffused, but only the Bomb Tech cn diffuse them. One person is randomly selected and this person very heavily armored and has some badass weapons like a grenade launcher and auto shotty. They can take like 500% damage before dying. It is your job to either defend the bomb tech while he diffuses the three bombs, or kill him whilehe is trying to diffuse a bomb or before he diffuses all 3. Diffusing all 3 is an automatic win. Killing bomb texh is an automatic win.

I think that is most of the game modes...

Well, SOCOM 3 and CA had another mode where you had to protect a convoy.

Classic SOCOM is based on 7 rounds. First to 4 wins the game.

A game MVP is chosen. Stats in SOCOM are watched more closely than in most games. hit percentage, k.d ratio, and other stats are some ways to tell if you are improving or not. I am not a stat whore, but I used them to keep tabs on how I had been playing over the last couple days.

Claymores and most explosives other than grenades are mostly frowned upon in the SOCOM community. You should know that however since it is clear you know everything.

**edit** sometimes pmn mines could be a pain, but you know where to look for them, and can usually get thre fast enough to ahoot the person planting them. SOCOM maps are open enough for the most part that there are sveral paths you can take. You just switch up your game play.

The real communoty polices their own. Cheaters are kicked by any good or legitamate clan. Often times stragglers without a clan tag are booted just in case... although that can be BS at times, it saves a head ache later.

Team killing and cheaters are easy to boot, and this is a clan based game... not hard to have majority vote.

You can play any way you want buddy. So you would be best staying in the unranked respawn. In most SOCOM games 203's and rockets are not even a option in ranked rooms.

Go to bed kid... If you don't want to play the game then don't. No one will miss you. It is douche bags like you that the community gets to know and boots as soon as they enter the room.

Most clans are 18 plus. If you are older than that you are a sad and pathetic person.

Well, when I got out of the Marine Corps I thought about going into a pro gaming circuit, but I got married and had a family.

You can think what you want man... I don't really care. I am not like this with ANY other game franchise... :P

I just love SOCOM. Is that such a bad thing? Ithought this type of gameplay was dead, so this excites me. Just like the revival of thefighting game genre... however, I am not as into that as much anymore. I play games for fun as well. I just like the competition that I feel this series provides. If you ever decide to give the game a try let me know... I'm not the type of person you have me pinned to be at all.

Also, I realize that SOCOM has a bad rep for being glitchy and full of cheaters. However, if you find the right group of people to play with, those things don't happen.

The pledge broke $65k tonight. 3 day totals are well on pace. :)

A new video posted by therealsocom.com

13. No health regeneration

14. Guns hot

It's all good man :)

I am just excited at the prospect of this game... David Sears having FULL range to flex his creative muscle? DAMN..

I admit that SOCOM is notorious for cheating later in each titles lifecycle... however, due to some new system like anlytics or some shit, David Sears said himself that cheaters will be caught EASLIY this time and banned. :)

I hope to see you in game. Anybody looking for a good clan that is all about fun, playing fairly with no cheating, and no drama pst me!

I am working on getting my website back up... I have to shake the cobwebs.. :P

however, here is a slightly modified free back door to my site...

http://darkhorse.up-your.net

VOW will be recruiting again soon ;)

I don't see anywhere on that site that says it is for anything other than the PC.

Pledge currently at $63,897/$200,000 up almost $2,000 in two hours :)

WitIsWisdom

It's now up to $67,262 with a charity benefit being held tonight ;)

Rumor has it that some big spenders are attending.

Also at what I believe is 2:00 CST there is going to be new reveals and information from David Sears.

Their website will be updated after the interview.

Never played a SOCOM game, not even on my PS2, but cool for the fans.

I don't see anywhere on that site that says it is for anything other than the PC.

StormyJoe

It is man. They have to get 500 PLAYSTATION WARRIORS (as they call it) for the game to make it to the PS4 as well. Only like 180 more are needed. It takes a minimum $50 pledge to become a Playstation Warrior, but you still get all the tier benefits if you pledge a higher amount.

I am going to do $150 so I can alos be icluded in the beta (of your choice PC or PS4). $50 also gets you the digital download and the first year of DLC... so it pays for itself. It is kind of like a pre-order at this point.

David Sears himself has already answered a couple of my questions and his words are vebatum "Don't worry you will not be disappoined."

I mean... take that for what it is, but Sears himself telling me this is what I have been waiting for in direct anwer form regarding my PM's? lol... might as well have the cubs win the world series while we are at in because I am on a roll and this sounds like everything I have been waiting for :P

[QUOTE="bobbetybob"]It even looks like a PS2 game, score!!!SentientMind

We don;t have much to go by yet. However, I am confident it will blow ANY other shooter out of the water gameplay and feature wise just because of the creative minds behind it. You can go play that joke of a series Crysis.

Hey now, I love Crysis, but that doesn't mean I can't love this game as well. The reason he said PS2 is probably because of the maps you posted. He didn't read everything, and assumed they were from this new game. The character model on the op looks very nice, almost like an Arma 3 model. 

I will share this on the Crydev forums. Considering I am just now hearing about this means it hasn't gotten the exposure it needs for being profitable.

8v8? No thanks. 16v16 worked great in confrontation after they fixed the game. I can't go back to 8v8 after experiencing that. He shouldn't listen to every socom fan's bitching. All I heard was 8v8, 8v8 was better, 8v8 blah blah. 16v16 rooms and 8v8 rooms, problem solved. Player count wasn't the problem it was low map count. I'll wait for sony to resurrect the series on ps4. Those graphics are a joke. I mean, confrontation had bad graphics, but wow.Mandingo101

Can you show me in game graphics? They just started working on the game.

I feel you about having 16v16 matches, but seeing as though there are USER CREATED RANKED ROOMS ( :) ) I'm sure that will be an option anyways.

SONY did confirm last year that SOCOM isn't dead, so we can still hope for something like a Confrontation 2. The two games TOGETHER would be awesome. The more the better as long as it is with that SOCOM formula... :cool:

It basically means no BS blind fire camping crap. You have to come out of cover or expose yourself to shoot your enemy instead ofputtng your arm over the obstacle and "magically" shooting as striaght as an arrow over a large distance. Have you ever tried firing a weapon at a target by just putting your arm over an obstacle you can't see through and firing? If yes... did you hit your target if it was more than 10 ft. away?
