A month ago I blasted this game for its terrible graphics. I take that back. In the beta graphics are around the same level as cod4 multiplayer :o. The vegatation had a massive rehaul, and look amazing. The gameplay is also amazing (best socom game yet, tbh). I do have many gripes that I think will be fixed though. This is alot better than MGO, and Warhawk imo. Here are my pro's and con's

pro's
-Gameplay is amazing, it is arcadey, and simulator. It is the counter strike for consoles
-Graphics are great (I don't understand why they post terrible images), but it looks much better than the pictures I've seen. I would personally state that it is on the same level as cod4 multiplayer maps. It isn't horrendous at all. It is actually improved way more than expected
-Sound is the best ever in a game. It beats Battlefield Bad Company (which is so hard to do)
Con's
-The beta has horrendous lag. Horrendous. Sometimes it makes the games unbearable to play. Doubt this will be in the retail version
-In order to get into a game it takes around 10-15 minutes. Which is terrible. Terrible. But also I don't think this will be in the retail version
-The online menu's are worst than Motorstorm. This I think will be in the retail version
-Vision, it is very hard to see characters on the map.
Overall, I'm going to buy it.

I doubt the poster is very reliable, but this is why I do not judge games before they are released/reviewed by alot of different websites. Lots of people have been saying it is terrible, before the beta even started. Although the game very well could be terrible, how could you possibly tell so soon? It makes more sense to get to actually play it or hear opinions of many gamers who have actually played the game.

u gotta play with some good pplz, really, its the same concept as the ps2 versions where u gotta have extreme teamwork and know what you are doing. SOCOM always had a huge learning curve, and its hard to switch from run and gun fps to socom...which is why i wanted to invite u in the N4G clan, if plays so much better when you have a team that works together, and mics.

AND YOU CAN DANCE ON DEAD BODIES!!!! idk how to do it, but i saw it happen to me, but time ran out before i could get back at that bastard, i did give him a head shot before he danced over my dead body

No game I have played ONLINE is as immersive as this
This makes me feel like I am somewhat on the actual battlefield... Its stupidly amazing how it makes me feel that way... The fact you can die so easy and theres so much open space and cover... It is very immersive and feels real... I prefer MGO but all the people who think this is a better / worse version of mgo are WRONG!

they very different

I guess for some reason i cant download the beta because i got the free episode of Qore from Playstation Magazine. Thats gay, the whole reason i wanted that Qore.

You'll be able to download the beta on Friday through Qore. Be patient.

On a side note. I really like the game. The graphics look great during gameplay (where it counts), the videos made them look worse for some reason. I really like it. The gameplay is fun. Although there is a couple of improvments to be made.

One: The game needs a timer in the pre-game lobby (Some people take forever, I set in a lobby for like 40 minutes waiting on a couple of guys to press start. They never did).

Two: When you kill someone it shows it in the top left corner of the screen in white, everyones kills are shown in white text, my kill(or death) in the top left needs to be a bright color different from the other players. Like the green text in Warhawk.

That's all I've found it needs at the moment besides fixing the servers. Where do I go to give beta feedback?

i agree with your comment, esp the pregame lobby that same thing happened to me, either add a timer or give the kick option...
my main gripe for game play is the grenade throwing, i just cant stand the throwing actions of it... but i guess ill just have a rocket launcher x2 lol

Played the beta for about an hour trying to like the game but I just can't the gameplay is so boring and just plain. The graphics look like a high res PS2/Xbox 1 game though I do love the explosions and smoke when cars and grenades blow up. There are also problems with the interface, takes quite a bit of time to load and can be pretty slow. Overall they really need to polish this game up more and just delay it.

You can probably give feedback at their official forum. Maybe at playstation.com or something.

Ngg tends to have good taste in terms of games he likes. On the other hand, he tends to be brutal towards games he's not liking.

As for Socom, I'm not in the beta, but I've never been a fan. I'm glad that (from what I hear, and I trust the people on here) that the graphics are far better than what videos lead you to believe.
