new socom info from the EGM article. GAMEPLAY: -You can roll or underhand a grenade with real physics -You can lean your guy with the six-axis instead of the d-pad -There is proximity chat -Your clan can talk via open chat, but you can L2 to chat to everyone on your team. Or if you have proximity chat then you chat with who ever is around you. -Audio has changed. Sounds around a corner sound muffled. -There is now a run/sprint mode. You can run/sprint but you can’t shoot and your gun will not be accurate after running. So basically just use this too avoid snipers. -Tilt with the six-axis can be tweaked for sensitivity -There are exploding barrels and cars. -View distance is big, so no more fog like SOCOM 2 -Smoke looks dark gray -They talk about the 3rd person view. They said because the new widescreen TVs have a different ratio, there was too much space on each side of the classic view. -"Sony's Seth Luisi says, "Because it was more centered towards 4:3 TVs, and now going to 16:9, we have a lot more area off to the sides." -You can go up on roofs. GAME SETUP & INFO -Crossroads is bigger than the original -They are bringing back a new game mode. "Elimination" its like SOCOM 2, kill the whole other team or take a draw -Crossroads (ps3) has an extra outer ring that the ps2 didn't have. There are two towers now. -Confrontation is 32 players but you can make smaller maps for 16 players total. -Improved clan support -Ranked matches are automated. If you want to set up your own room with specifics (no grenades, etc) it won’t be ranked. This stops cheaters and rank ups. -"You can no longer set up a match exactly defined to your team’s exact strengths and create a honeypot to raise your clan ranking. For your clan to have a global ranking you now have to be a rounded team with good strategies for dealing with all the maps. Now, you can build all the custom games you want - the room system is still there, which I know is really important to SOCOM fans. You can do all your clan tryouts and training in those rooms, and even playing within those games aggregates different stats, because we track a lot of information about the player. But it doesn't directly go into the global clan ladder." –Seth Luisi -There will be 7 maps total at launch. All maps will be based in North Africa -There is an underground map that has a collapse parttriggered by the enemy -Clan support will be available on socom.com where the leader can change their clan, add players etc. -There will be a party system so your clan will join the same game. -The other map that is shown in the article is called URBAN WASTELAND it takes place around a high rise hotel, but it mentions you have access to just the first few stories. It has an underground tunnel network and has some bridges and stuff. There is a multileveled parking garage. This is the same one that was shown in previous screenshots released on the web. MISC DETAILS -They are planning on having a new headset for SOCOM. -It also shows the online numbers of the SOCOM franchise aswell as 2 screenshots from SOCOM 1 & 2 -THERE WILL BE A CLOSED BETA. I think it said they will seekpeople out through SOCOM.com -Closed beta going on "right now or May" -Open beta after that. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost...&postcount=794 |

Sony's Socom: Confrontation for PS3 will be aiming to take the PS3 online shooter crown from Activision's massively successful Call of Duty 4 when it arrives later this year. The online-focused shooter will let up to 32 players fight in seven maps in battles of strategy and teamwork via PSN. Soldiers will be customisable, with weapons set by the player for the job at hand. The game will promote clans, with a recruitment feature that allows you to group up with "free agents" or friends, with one player serving as the Squad Leader. "Featuring some of the most highly trained Special Forces regiments in the world, SOCOM: Confrontation is, like all true military scenarios, all about strategy and teamwork," explains Sony. "Reward your troops not only when they are brave and fearless but when they use intelligence and work as a team. Trawl the world for the best soldiers to strengthen your team as you lead your men against other highly skilled outfits." Online play will be backed by a dedicated site, SOCOM.com, where players can find stat tracking features and manage their teams even when out of reach of their PS3s. Regular downloads will also be made available, "including new Special Forces characters weapons and maps," and regular online tournaments will also give you plenty of opportunities to prove your skills. Sony details: "Choose from pre-set tournaments tailored to your schedule; these run on weekdays and weekends and are split on a regional and global basis." Sony says the game will boast "unrivalled community features with increased clan & ladder support." But will it compete with the mighty CoD 4? We'll see. Posted Image Posted Image |
