ted4887 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 This game is the one of the main reasons I'd like to have a PS3. Is that massive online shooter still going to be released? I heard it was going to be like 200 person rooms and stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTro Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Yep, wish I had a PS3 for this game. Anyone try using the gun? I'd like to hear what people think about that. Looks like it is kind of a PITA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most things were cheesy but you have to sacrifice a little something something to have 256 players in one match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gun is kinda cool but I wont be using it all the time. The only reason I bought the expander pack is to save the money on all the move stuff.

mamohr686 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 From the PSN blog:While we are investigating the cause of the Network outage, we wanted to alert you that it may be a full day or two before we’re able to get the service completely back up and running. Thank you very much for your patience while we work to resolve this matter. Please stay tuned to this space for more details, and we’ll update you again as soon as we can.I was hoping to get online tonight but it's not looking good for the playstation network.I bought Mortal Kombat instead of socom. When I played the beta it was the similar to other socom games. The experienced players with a clan totaly own and spawnkill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJH Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 It really is a pain in the rear. A buddy of mine bought the gun and Killzone 3, he returned the gun after a day. It is darn near impossible to move and aim effectively, I dont see how anyone could compete against another player using a controller. We died, a lot...They just need to come out with a version of Big Buck Hunter and I would buy one!!! Not a good idea for a game you have to control movement and aim/shoot.Not sure about Socom, kind of waiting for BF3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthBaiter Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 The gun (sharpshooter) works great imo. It does take a while to get the hang of it. You have to recalibrate often at first. Also for anyone who thinks it's difficult to aim with any accuracy, I'd recommend turning the sensitivity down to 0. That will help a ton. Most take it out of the box and expect it to be good to go, not the case. Have some patience, Set sensitivity to 0 and you'll do fine. I do so well with it set at 0, feels like I'm using a cheat.Socom 4 is far more engaging then COD blk ops imo. MAG (not beta version) is also a great game. Zipper makes great games, unlike treyarch. Just sayin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
