CAG Socom Thread-SONY SHUTTING DOWN SERVERS AUGUST 31 for S1-CA Tue&Sun10pmEST

Hey guys. I'm thinking about getting a PS3 soon and Confrontation with it. Would you guys be willing to help out a newbie learn the game a little? I used to play SOCOM 2 a lot back in the day and I miss how fun that was. BTW Smiggity how's that SOCOM Confrontation guide? Useful at all :p

Always willing to help a newb. We need some fresh blood in the clan. Hit us up with FR as soon as you pick it up.

Truthfully, the guide is not very useful. Many of the spawn points are wrong along with many of the weapon stats. Its kind of weird. The maps in it are nice to have though. Thanks again!
 
[quote name='warpedcore']I just got the game yesterday, looking for people to play.[/QUOTE]

Send me a request. Hope to see you on tonight for CAG night

We had some good rounds last night at CAGs. Good to see md, smog and Mr.B back together. It's been awhile.
 
My apologies to MisterB, LethalGod, and mdamore. I just got dc'ed during the crossroads map. GGs though.

Also, we saw darkleaper(CAG-warpedcore) entering the game and left. You should've stayed and played with us.

Really?? They have got to be kidding. This is a slap in the face. What a joke. /6 is so out of touch it is ridiculous

Edit- Esper15 are you an Age of Booty fan? Looks like it in your sig
 
So, is this game worth it? I remember reading reviews when it first came out and it got a pretty bad rap. Did patches fix it up?

What kind of games is this close to? I briefly tried SOCOM 3 on the PS2 and was not impressed, so will I like this?

I just recently started playing last week for the trophies. My sig automatically changes when I receive a trophy for that game.

I never played the ps2 Socom games. I picked this game up for the headset with plans to dump the game. I decided to try it out one evening. Smiggity and m_d_amore were very patient with me and helped a ton through the steep learning curve. Since putting this game in every other game that I own has gone on the shelf. I feel it's the best game I've ever played. I've never had a game that allows me to play 5-6 hours a night every night and not get sick of it. I'm still not very good (and probably never will be) compared to the rest of the guys from CAG but the game is always a good time. Take md's advice and rent it. The level designs and details are pretty amazing.
 
You have to make up the extra games that you early exited to get the next rank right? If so I need about 4 games to reach rank 7.

Also, I just watched a guy go 30-6 in a 14v14 quick match. He got 15 without dying, not sure on the w/o damage. He wasn't even sniping, he was just owning people, including myself lol.
 
Damn thats nasty


Here is the SOCOM: Confrontation rank structure! These figures are based on individuals with 0 (zero) early exits...yes, it is possible. So if your rank doesn't match the figures - you probably have early exits. Enjoy!

Rank 1 - Noob or you leave games early!
Rank 2 - Play 14 games or win 9 (whichever comes first)
Rank 3 - Play 27 games or win 17
Rank 4 - Play 54 games or win 34
Rank 5 - Play 108 games or win 68
Rank 6 - Play 216 games or win 136
Rank 7 - Play 432 games or win 272
Rank 8 - Play 864 games or win 544
Rank 9 - Play 1728 games or win 1088
Rank 10 - Play 3456 games or win 2176

Yeah unfortunatly this game has gone to the wayside for the moment. I've been catching up on the back log of games I've been wanting to play, so I havent been on as much. I finished Fallout 3, I'm close to finishing Saints Row 2, after that I got GTA 4, and by the time I'm done with that the new red faction is going to be out...(so many games so little time..lol) I'll still be hopping on on our game nights but, its not going to be a nightly thing for me anymore.

Hit me up as well.
 
[quote name='m_d_amore']epic battles await us in a 16 med3[/QUOTE]

Why the preference for 16 rooms? I'm not a huge fan, especially since it involves playing quarantine much more than usual (worst map in the game by far). Though playing in those rooms does open up new game/map combos I have never played before. The big crossroads control was a very interesting game, the points were nowhere near where I has assumed they would be.
 
well 16 med3 does have Quarantine twice one is Breach the way the map is meant to be played and an escort i think

med 1 and 3 have quarantine only once but no breach
 
Sorry guys, the xmb said you were still in that 8med room, and I got tired of trying to find a room, so I joined a quick match to pass the time, only for gold to message me saying you guys found a room. I'm not early exiting any game until I'm solidly a rank 7.
 
[quote name='smiggity']not much fun last night. my skills are diminishing[/QUOTE]

Since I've never really had any skills to diminish, most every night is fun because I don't know any different. I was pretty bummed to get disconnected from that 16v16 game we were in. Since it happened in the beginning of the 2nd round I didn't feel like waiting 40 minutes to get back in. Thanks for the games though. Always fun and watching MisterB and Player bring our team back to win 4 straight in the 16v16 demo was pretty cool.

Yeah that sucks, I would have signed off too, that is the bad thing about quick matches at night, you almost always get put into a 16v16 match, and unless the teams are really unbalanced the games take a really long time.

Hey, I'll take 16-7, finally removes that 12 kill game I got on a terribly laggy server as my high kill game.

I have now played more than 100 games over the rank 7 number, I guess I'm going to have to get to the win limit to get my new rank.
 
Damn 16-7 is pretty nice MisterBee.

Anyways I expect a blog post sometime tonight. Abigale is signed on the forums but she could just be checking the threads.

Had a much better time last night. All about communication. Gotta talk if u wanna win
 
An update on Patch 1.50
Posted by Confrontation Online Team

Patch 1.50 is still going through the QA process. The amount of new content in patch 1.50 along with the enormous size and scope of the Tournament and Clan Ladder features require a huge QA effort in order to make sure that 1.50 is released without any issues. The QA team and the development team at Slant Six are working as hard as possible to get these issues resolved and the patch out to you as soon as possible.

As soon as we have a final release date for the 1.50 patch, we will let you know here on SOCOM.com. Thank you for your patience.

HAHAHAHAHAHA, god if this game wasn't so damn good despite its problems it would have like 5 people playing. I'm frankly amazed they actually made a decent game in the first place, I'm glad I didn't have this game at launch, must have been a clusterf***.

I haven't got my daily laughs out of the official forums, I think I will have to do that after GTA night tonight. Even if it doesn't come close to making up for that shite preformance by United today.
 
Wow, sucks about the 1.5 patch delay. Sorry guys, I wasn't able to make it the past couple of days, lots of things to take care of. However, I'll most likely hop on tonight after some STHDR.
 
[quote name='smiggity']its rough for you out here since penguins are about to get dominated too[/QUOTE]


I know right? My manager told me yesterday that if the Pens lose again, hes going to have to sesual himself opposite of me so he wont have to deal with my bragging.


I wanaa wear my wings jersy but I Fear I will get taken out by someone in their car. xD
 
Im pretty sure this game will be done with support after we get our first DLC. We may get another DLC pack down the line but after 1.5 and first DLC its a wrap for this game. Im sure there will still be patches but I think /6 and SCEA really want to put this debacle behind them.

Side note, if you have a friend in EU playing this, under their name it doesnt say US Navy Seals, just Socom Confrontation
 
[quote name='toocool17']I will probably be out tonight, I keep getting a damn dns error and havn't figured out how to fix it yet.[/QUOTE]

I'm so f'n sick of all my disconnects that I went out and bought a new router. Of course my ps3 won't recognize it and I'm dying to play so I had to hook the old router back up. Hopefully I can get it all working and my disconnects stop. I'll be on tonight
