Second (or third impression) of SOCOM 4 - I just upgraded this from trash to not bad.

-Server is good; No real connection issues whatsoever - I only encountered lag once and it was only for about 30-60 seconds. They have something call mods - as you get more kills with a weapon, you're able to upgrade it with better attachments (red dot, ACOG, suppressor, etc)

Biggest issues with the game is:
- the clunky movements at times
- aiming needs to be tightened up just a bit but it's good for the most part (you can still zoom in and take on a FPS view, but this will get you killed in close range situations a lot of the time)
- not being able to shoulder your weapon from left to right
- spawn deaths where you spawn then immediately die
- the spawn times - I'd prefer if it didn't take 6 seconds to respawn, but it's not as bad as the other issues.

its a 6/10 judging from the beta

my only major problem is the camera. it's so close it's barely third person.

but Zipper already said they're gonna move it back.

if they do that it'll be a strong 7 or 8 / 10 for me.

Most people I see complaining about the game are people who were fanatics of Socom 2.I only played Socom 1 so I know it will certainly be better than that.Never play games online,but I like the looks of the SP which is what I am excited for.

lmao. I told people it was like a 3-6 hr download. It's really 2 gigs - like 400+mb download and 1.5+ gb install.

yea Im about quit it and then let it download before I go to sleep

Is it the same as the DC Universe download where it resumes where it left off?

I don't know, I just did it at night and when morning came, it was done. I think that's the best option since most likely you won't really be playing anything at that time anyway.

It's 3rd-Person MAG 2.0. Same point system, sound gun sounds, hit markers, etc.....

Im having fun with it, IDK if the full game will play like it but the respawning mode in the beta has everyone playing like its COD

Just running out and trying get as many kills as you can before you die

Are they doing the real Socom gamemode in the beta?

You have to play the mode with classic SOCOM settings, but it plays the same as regular mode, just no health regen, respawn and fewer players (8v8)

Yea thats Socom, this respawn shit aint how Socom is meant to be played

Well, I had SOCOM 2 on ps2, but never went online with it, so I don't really know shit about SOCOM MP, but the classic modes are way better than the respawn shit. People actually think about their moves or die for doing dumb shit.
