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

[quote name='VipFREAK']Ugh, forgot about tonight. Passed out. That and my PS3 isn't really around me atm.[/quote]

This. I just passed out last night from the complete lack of sleep I got over the weekend. Now I'll just be staying up all week playing socom...
 
I think yesterday was the roughest night we've had... Even that 16v16 match was tough. Good games though, and at least I ranked up to 4 :)
 
[quote name='whataboutbob?']Just picked up a ps3 recently so I don't have any friends yet :(. Hope to change that by joining in on CAG Socom nights. Add me to your friend lists please[/quote]

Yo where were you last night? On the hunt for Jay?:lol:

Fresh meat! Look forward to it. With the fancy website now you can apply to the clan from there. Give it a shot. Our clan is CheapAssGamer--CAG

Yeah condor you and Dirty were the only ones consistently getting more than 1 kill a match. Ive been struggling for the last week or so. I need to get back in the groove.

that one?
 
[quote name='m_d_amore']that one?[/quote]

Yeah, that's what I figured. I thought there was another massive CAG night I missed. I have the full 3MP picture somewhere on my computer if you want the full resolution version.
 
[quote name='m_d_amore']Don't forget to get your Knives bloody tonight[/quote]

I have a very love hate (scratch that, hate hate) relationship with the knife. I always hit L3 when I don't mean to. Like in the middle of a firefight. Or when running out of the spawn with my teammates right in front of me. And it seems like I can never kill someone with a single knife swing.

Haha its all good. If Socom was 360 exclusive, I would have one.

Thats the pic. I never realized you had already posted it.

European English 8x8 Medley 1 is where we are at tonight
 
I kept timing out trying to join lobbies so I'm going to call it a night. Great games, though. Desert Glory is always pretty fun.

I think I've got to switch out the M16 because the burst fire keeps messing me up. What do people like for the mercs?

Haha we are still waiting for your triumphant return! Good games last night all. For the Mercs I like the AK or 552 silenced if I wanna rush
 
I'm starting to think that breach might be my favorite game mode. It's requires a decidedly mindset and strategy than the other modes.
 
I am going to pick this game up simply because I need a bluetooth headset. How is the online commnity for this game? Did they fx the glitches that everyone was complaining about ?
How is the stat tracking?

Hows the CAG communiy with this ?

The CAG community is the best and this game totally rocks. There's usually at least 2-3 CAGs on every night and on the CAG nights the group is ever growing.

The AK is pretty sweet. Good damage which I need with my horrid aim

People complain too much and it has been largely overblown. I think 31 pages of clan discussion should speak for itself with the community
 
Like Cigarl said, the CAG Socom nights are always well occupied.

Overall I think Socom is a niche game. It definitely isn't the run and gun type of game. Strategy and teamwork is extremely critical.

It seems much of the glitches have been addressed, however there always seems to be room for complaints about the game. There's still room for improvement and polishing, but it's definitely more than playable.

My only major gripe about the game is the load times. The clan page and joining games lag and hang respectively. The load times for the maps feel like they last 1-2 minutes. It really feels like I spend 80% loading/spectating/menu screens and 20% playing. This is especially true if you die soon, which happens to me all the time.

Despite all these cons, I can't explain why I'm attracted to Socom. I love the game for some unexplainable reason.
 
Got to second that about Breach! I love that mode, although just straight deathmatch or whatever they call it is nice for some variety once in a while. I'm not a fan of modes with the VIPs, unless I get to shoot them. :cool:

The loading times definitely are pretty bad, though. And seriously, I'm no developer but is it that hard to design menus that don't have input lag?
 
Tuesday nights are a lot of fun, Ivan...once we get the modes/servers nonsense hammered out we usually have a great turnout and some really intense matches. You should definitely pick this up.
 
Yeah dude the menu thing is an absolute joke. How in the world that made it out of the beta I have no idea.

I love Breach as well but am soooo tired of Kasbah Breach(The one with the atrium in middle and tunnels) I really like Crossroads version though. I wanna play Urban Wasteland breach, dont think I have played that in a few weeks. Sunday maybe we should start with some unranked Breach?

Also, all day yesterday I was just putting in work. Having that Medium Armor on really threw my game off. Back to normal now!:D
 
[quote name='MisterBee']I just got the game a few days ago, so if no one minds having someone without a clue playing, I would love to join in.[/quote]

Join in anytime! We are all pretty laid back about the game, so no worries about just getting started. We all started out the same way. And like Cigarl said(it's weird when the CAG names are different from the PSN names :)), there's usually 2-3 people on every night.
 
Wow, forgot how much fun this game is. It's great but it never calls to me for some reason. But once I start playing it's a blast.
 
[quote name='kurokubushi']Yeah I'm comming ver to the dark side, lol. I traded my 360 in for a 60gb ps3.[/quote]

Post your PSN name here and I will send an invite out. Just sent one to whataboutbob and MisterBee. Join up anytime.

Good games Thongsy, sucks I was so tired by then b/c overall I had a killer night.
 
State of the Game

State of the Game
Posted by SOCOM: Confrontation Online Team
This is a quick view into some of our plans for SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation, answers to some of your questions and confirmation of our commitment and continued support of the title.

First, thank you to everyone who is contributing to the Confrontation forums, we review the posts, collate the comments and use the information to make the game better.

Second, after the release of the 1.30 update the on-line player counts increased by 50% and the number of hours per player increased by 33%. SOCOM: Confrontation is the number one SCEA online title and we would like to thank everyone that plays. You are not taken for granted.

Upcoming Patches:
We have a number of patches planned to add functionality and fix issues raised by you (the community). The first of these patches, addresses a slowdown seen when managing large clans and a number of other functionality, stability and non-English language fixes. Also in the works are Clan Ladders, Tournaments and another community requested bundle of fixes.

So why the delay between patches? Why can't we address concerns more quickly? Why not smaller, quicker updates? The answer to this has a lot to do with the lengthy and necessary testing and approval procedure required before any patch can be deployed. This means that we tend to bundle fixes together to avoid multiple patches in test at the same time. A patch is usually deployed within 3 days of its approval, avoiding weekends.

Latency/Lag:
We are looking into potential causes for the severe latency (lag) which some users are reporting. Most users do not seem to have this issue, but we realize that it is a big issue for some users and we are actively looking into it.

We have already performed a lot of testing for latency (lag) under various network conditions on our side. However, we need your help to track down these issues.

If you experience sporadic latency (lag), please provide the following information:

* PSN User Handle
* Channel Name where latency occurred
* Game Name where latency occurred
* Game details where the latency occurred (map name [large/small], number of players, respawn on/off)
* Date and time when latency occurred (including time zone)
* Your Internet User Provider


Please provide this information in the forum thread here.


If you are constantly having latency (lag) issues, please provide the following information:

* PSN User Handle
* PS3 Model
* Is your PS3 connected via wired or wireless?
* If you are connected via wireless
* Are you connected via 802.11b or 802.11g?
* What wireless channel are you connected on?
* How many wireless access points can your PS3 see when you scan for a wireless access point under the System Settings/Network Settings option on the XMB?
* Please list the make, model and firmware of the wireless access point you are connected to
* If you are connected via wired, are you using a wireless bridge? If so, please list the make model and firmware.
* If you are using a router to share you internet connection, please list the make, model and firmware of the router
* Please list the make, model and firmware of your DSL/Cable/FIOS modem
* What was the date for the last time you logged in and observed the issue?


Please provide this information in the forum thread here.


Downloadable Content:
At this time, we cannot announce any plans or details for DLC. We will have more information on this in the future.

I miss the Quarantine breech. I thought that map truly offered the most strategy because once you dropped the water you could get at the plant sight from so many different ways. Since the 1.3 patch it seems like you don't ever get this one anymore.

It also feels like every time I jump on for a game or two (or 10) I end up playing all the maps at night. I want a flashlight for the end of my gun so I can at least shine the guy in the eyes before he delivers my headshot.
 
Hey, I just got this game yesterday and I don't know if you guys like new people playing with you or not but I'd love to play with some people.
 
Hi I just picked up the game. Could I get an invite to the clan and game tonight? My PSN is tenchi33. Thanks.
 
I got a respawn breach game set up for tonight. I set the respawn for all matches to 2 which means you get three lives. The round count is at 4 for each map and every map with the exception of Frostfire is in the daylight. Friendly fire has also been left on since Smog and I have both been on such a team kill streak as of late.

This is the list
Kasbah - Control Point
Quarantine - Breach
Crossroads (large) - Breach
Frostfire - Suppression
Urban Wasteland (large) - Breach
Fallen (large) - Breach
Desert Glory - Suppression
Frostfire - Demolition

If anyone has any suggestions or changes post them and hopefully we'll have a good turn out tonight.
 
I'll probably be in for the first two games or too. I'm so exhausted from this weekend, but Looks we have a nice setup and hopefully a nice turn out too.

[quote name='m_d_amore']fallen control?[/QUOTE]

Done. I'll post the room in Korea under CAG Night.
 
Hopping on now. Hopefully we get a good turnout. Crossroads control sounds interesting. It would be cool if one was up in the tower.


Edit- Looks like the server is up. Korea: CAG Night
 
I think I got everything right. Room should be posted in Korea. If anyone is on and can't find it, let me know because I most likely messed something up.
 
[quote name='tenchi']sorry for being a complete noob. so do I need to select korea as my region to get into the game?[/QUOTE]

yeah. Go to Korea and then find the CAG Night. Pick a side and you're good.
