SOCOM: Confrontation – 1.60 Patch December 10th

[Goodintentions]

they supposedly changed hte voting as well no more can yo uvote hte last guy alive out so that the other team cant extract/plant etc .... if you vote him he wont get kicked until hte round ends/he dies .. which is nice .. sorry but i dont commit suicide to prevent a plant /etc and i dont agree with people voting for that reason .. its a game .. get over it ..

[DezNutz]

patch seemed to fix main issues that they addressed.. still some issues with the game.. main one being where is the in game clan wars, clan ranking, and tournaments?

That being said we just had a run of bad luck last night.. not playing but trying to find a match.. we had 10 clanmates on and literally going into 7 rooms with clans other players.. the entire opposing teams left before next map.. also tried automatch twice with the same results.. our entire clan gets in a room vs a full other side, and 90% of the other side leaves before the map starts.. gets really annoying so many pu$$ies out there..

and yeah whats with automatch now? got to green up? WTF? where did the countdown go?

[Goodintentions]

i think with everyone DLing the patch was messing things up pretty good
i know the music while hte game was loading into a match kept cutting in and out for me and there was some wierd starts to hte game asa well .... i think itll settle again by weeks end though .. im more concerned with how many more people are gonna clog hte servers with the EU release today

if youre all the way on the other side of the map, and they have the bomb, committing suicide might save your team the match and would be the smart thing to do.

Thats why I like the fade in. If you get a good start YOU DO have an advantage. If you can't get out of your spawn that's your own fault. It plays into the strategy of the game. If you get a good start you might take a certain path, but if you get a bad start you might have to change your route or hold back.

Also, the fade affects everyone the same, so if someone else can get you from a certain spot at the beginning, then you can do the same to them. It's just another thing that good players take advantage of and not so good players complain about. (no offense)

If they got rid of it I wouldn't care, but I like it the way it is.

but it is unfair in that people who have more time to play are better able to learn the spawn patterns and waht have ya that is what makes it unfair .. i shouldnt be at a disadvantage becasue i have a wife and family and full time job over some kid who spends 12 hours a day on the game ..

i dont mind the fade at all either. i like it sometimes, and hate it other times lol! here is my thing with the fade: sometimes it is longer for one side or the other. i hate it when you can tell that your fade took twice as long as the other teams. its not them getting out faster either. i play every night for about 4 hours and i know how fast it takes people to get to spots even with the best jump possible. i can totally tell that sometimes the fade is over quicker for the other team and sometimes i can tell that my fade was quicker than the other side. plus, whats the deal with the random spawns sometimes now with that new patch?! i have had a couple times where i spawn right next to the other team and die instantly. how can you plan for the fade jump when you dont even know where youre at yet?

this isnt right either. i just experienced this last night. my clan was playing and there was a random guy in there that wasnt playing so we booted him. i will say this.. it took us like 5 times to vote him. we would vote him but he would just stay in, but we kept doing it and it finally worked. i think it is totally fair to vote someone unless they really are playing. its unfair for the other team to get a free plant just because some guy joined and isnt playing.

its not people taking advantage of the fade in. every once in a while the patch has caused teams to have random spawn spots and it can be ANYWHERE on the map

i knowthat part once in kasbah breach i spawned on one of hte roofs nad wiped out half hte team withouth them realising what was going on ..

and no offense but how a game STARTS should not be part of the strategy of the gameplay .. ..and im far from a not so good player i just dont have endless hours to sit and learn the spawn spots perfectly .. i have a wife and kids and full time job and other interests ..

its not an unfair advantage unless they spawn in some weird place. practice makes perfect. is it unfair that tom brady can throw a football better than any of us because he has more time to practice?.

if you know you get a bad jump, then you know that you cant meet them in the middle and must change your strategy. you have to use strategy and teamwork in this game more than any other shooter.

actually, thats not correct. there are certain points where the game loads faster for the other teams. i love the fade and i love the race for the spawn points, but it definitely needs to be EXACTLY the same for both sides.

hell, ive even had it happen where i just got off the round score screen and everyone else had already been running to their spots. this game is far from perfect and we all know that. you would be a liar to say that the fade is not SOMETIMES unfair.

[Goodintentions]

well whatever im not gonna argue a moot point anymore .. i do know this game with all its flaws is more addicting than crack .. but its time e got some new maps man ....

I only see this happen when I jump into a match that has already been running.

yeah... definitely!

[Goodintentions]

does anyone know of a way to see what maps/modes youve gotten MVP's on .. ???
im pretty sure i only need 1 map and 1 mode for hte superior service medal ( both are at 86%) im pretty sure i need qaurantine ( i suck at that map ) and likely extraction ....

[DezNutz]

you can see your map type MVP's on Socom.com stats... I have not found a way to see individual MAP MVP's.. as I am missing that one too.. I am at 93%.. and am thinking it may be frostfire or desert glory, as I do not play small maps too often..

[Goodintentions]

im still stuck at 99% on the service medal as well ( 25 of each map and mode) yet my stats all show well over 25 of each mode played ...
