The Official SOCOM 4: U.S. Navy Seals Thread (Beta up for PS+ users)

[QUOTE="Texas2089"]Nice thread. Looks like a lot of work went into it. Too bad I have no interest in the game :P I'll try the beta and see if I like it but as of now its a no go. That was a bit dumb that they hype the beta up for Killzone 3 and all that gets you is an week over everyone else though.ExoticAnimal

Thanks. :P But what about Co-op? Looks like it's something we can play but if you don't want to, I understand. ;)

Read the bottom of my first post. ;) If you're lazy to read it, read the spoiler.

Yes I was too lazy to re-read it lol But I've always considered online co-op part of multiplayer.

I guess you can consider it as part of multiplayer but I consider individual based competition against other players as part of multiplayer. Co-op is co-op. :P But take a look at the video of the co-op that I just posted right before you first posted. Tell me that doesn't look awesome.

Well, Socom has always been known for its gameplay and multiplayer. I don't see why this would be any different.

Never played a SOCOM game before :PTexas2089

SMH in disgust. :P Just give the beta a try. I dunno if you'll like it since it is tatical based but they are making it more accessible to casual gamers so it'll be more user friendly.

Great job on the article. I am hyped for this game. I will be getting it day one as well. I trust Zipper. I still believe that MAG is severely underrated. Socom 4 is looking great and seems like a breath of fresh air in a market filled with FPS games and COD clones. I believe Zipper is one of the better developers because they make tactical shooters where team work is a must.

"Beginning March 22nd, PlayStation Plus members will gain access to the beta."

My PS Plus subscription just got even more justified.

can someone explain to me what playstation plus is?CWEBB04z

I'm too lazy to type up a response but check out this link for some info on it.

here is a question. if i dont not use nor do i plan on using a headset will my MP experience suffer? seeing as this is strategy based im thinkin a headset will be amlost manditory but maybe not. i have not played socom since the first game.special77j

It's not mandatory but it definetly helps if you have a mic. I see the mic being more helpful in Classic mode than in Standard.

But you're not cool if you don't use a headset. :o jk It all really depends on if you play with friends on a regular basis or not. I do tend to play multiplayer games with friends from GS so its worth it for me but if you don't, then I don't really see the point of having one.

A Headset is mandatory . . Seriously.. Young_Charter

But if he plays with you, its definitely not worth it. :P

It's because I forgot to charge it once I finish up playing with LightR. :lol:

They just released the trophy list for the game. Can be found here. What do you guys think about it? Are you going to platinum the game? I will for sure.

I'll be first in line for the midnight release Apr 19th. I am still hoping to make it into the private beta even though I have PS+ and a KZ3 beta code.... lol

Yeah, you could say I'm a socrack addict.

I just looked at my school Calender and Socom comes out the week right before spring break. :D I think I'll take a loan out on my parents and get both MK and SOCOM and whore them both all week.Tetrarch9

Or you can buy Socom and play that all week and get MK at a later date. :P

Don't base Socom 4 based off of Confrontation. Confrontation was made by another developer, which wasn't Zipper Interactive.

[QUOTE="ExoticAnimal"]

[QUOTE="Tetrarch9"] Its either SOCOM IV 150 bundle or MK and SOCOM(60). Can't decide. Im still a little skeptical on SOCOM but hopefully the beta will clear that up. Its mainly that confronation was so bad.

Yea, I understand what you mean. This was one of the few games where I want to buy a Move and play the game with. I just don't want to spend that much but looks like I will have to since its actually a pretty good deal for the game/Move bundle.
