Socom: 4 - Games - Facepunch Forum

[img]http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/socom/images/thumb/9/9b/SOCOM_Logo.jpg/400px-SOCOM_Logo.jpg[/img] Recently, I recieved an Email from Playstation about the confirmed Socom 4. I loved the others for ps2. [quote]In South East Asia, a revolutionary army has seized control of a country bordering one of the world’s most vital waterways; threatening to disrupt he global economy. Your mission is to step into the well-worn boots of the Ops Com, a NATO Operations Commander of an elite, five-man squad. You must venture deep into inhospitable jungles, city streets and crumbling urban ruins to engage an army of rebel fighters and discover their plans. Although you’re vastly outnumbered, you’re armed with the latest weaponry and your men are second to none -- but do you possess the stealth, speed and tactical thinking to lead them to victory? Time is not on your side: you have just six days to complete your mission. To emerge victorious, you must lead from the front, maintain control of the situation and fight with sheer intensity. The defining tactical shooting game franchise continues with SOCOM 4, created by the original design team at Zipper Interactive. A totally overhauled single-player mission structure will put players on the battlefield with more control than ever before, while the 32-player online combat scenarios will test every gamer's fortitude in battle.[/quote] [quote]Release Date: Q3 2010 Exclusively on: PlayStation 3 ESRB: RP-T+[/quote] [quote]Genre: First-Person Shooter Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment Developer: Zipper Interactive Online Play: 32 Versus[/quote] [url]http://ps3.ign.com/objects/019/019332.html[/url] [url]http://www.socom.com/en-us/Game?id=SOCOM4[/url] Who else thinks this game looks bad ass. I mean people have said the Confrontation was really glitchy. I've never played Confrontation personally either.... Hopefully Zipper can redeem themselves after MAG...

uhh why is the genre first-person shooter?

Danke for posting pics bud xD

fuck! why does it have to be ps3 exclusive!? :( i used to play socom 2 and 3 when i was younger. good days.

First-person Shooter? what the fuck? They best be kidding about that shit, or i'm gunna knock some heads.

Socom 2 was the greatest shit ever to grace the PS2. I love it to death. I didn't enjoy any Socom after it though but I hope 4 has potential. Oh, and was it me or did that one PS3 Socom blow ass?

I got the new PSP SOCOM. Multiplayer's a blast.

Wish I had a PS3 just for SOCOM. One of the best wargame series yet.

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;20583322]I think that was more of a small game and I don't think Zipper made it. This one is made by Zipper.[/QUOTE] socom 2 was made by zipper. oh you mean socom confrontation, yea that was made by slant six.

Socom 3 was the shits, I don't know why everyone hated the vehicles. Socom 1 was also the shit, going on that russian tanker made me felt like solid snake leading a group of solid snakes.

We all witnessed the fall of Call of Duty. Now SOCOM is going to die :gonk:.

who said socom was going to die?

Don't be so negative about a first person perspective. Tactical games are good that way too you know.

[QUOTE=Mr.Cookie;20585185]Don't be so negative about a first person perspective. Tactical games are good that way too you know.[/QUOTE] Rainbow Six 3, still considered by me one of the best tactical FPSes of all time. Perfect proof that tactical and first person go hand in hand fine.

Socom 2 was extremely fun back in ye olde days. It was my first online experience, so Socom will always have a special part in my heart. Confrontation blew, but then again, Slant Six made it. Now I just hope Zipper can dig up the Socom-franchise. MAG didn't attract me much, but I hope this will. And please don't say this is going to be a FPS. Socom has always been a TPS.

I remember Socom 1 back in the day and it was fun, but I can't remember why it was fun!? Anybody want to remind me why the Socom games are good? I just remember thinking it was fucking brilliant I just can't remember what was so good about it so help me out.

The multiplayer was loads of fun. Singleplayer was pretty fun too, albeit very frustrating at times because the lack of checkpoints. And you could give orders by shouting into a headset that came bundled with the game.

I guess I was a bit pessimistic, the game looks nice visually, but I'm not sure if SOCOM might go mainstream.

Aw man I need a PS3 for this. I played the first 2 SOCOM games to death on my PS2 :)

[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;20594001]Rainbow Six died with Vegas. SOCOM might die with this.

It started on a major console, is still on a current major console.

[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;20594001]Rainbow Six died with Vegas. SOCOM might die with this. I guess I was a bit pessimistic, the game looks nice visually, but I'm not sure if SOCOM might go mainstream.[/QUOTE] imo SOCOM died with Confrontation. Now it's all about reviving it.

[QUOTE=kevlar jens;20600459]imo SOCOM died with Confrontation. Now it's all about reviving it.[/QUOTE] This is what I meant.

What the hell. Confrontation is great.

[QUOTE=Banned?;20607924]What the hell. Confrontation is great.[/QUOTE] Not from what I heard. I heard it was glitchy as fuck.

But now it's all patched up and working just fine! :unsmith:
