Auto aiming in Socom 3 - US Navy Seals
I was reading the manual and it says that there is an auto aim in the game. Is this anything like the aiming in FTB? Right now I'm aiming using the left and right analog sticks, is this the correct method and what is the auto aiming feature about?

All it does is help you out in single player by putting these

around your enemy when there is something in between you and the enemy, obstructing your line-of-sight.

Uhh.... no? This only works offline, at least that's what I've been told, and as far as I know. Considering, I have mine on, and I don't get any red brackets online. I'm 95% sure the name shows up whenever you are really close with your crosshairs on someone.

What in the hell are you talking about? You got some cheats up your sleeves or what?

Welcome to Socom, pal. In Socom 3 online, the name of a team member will display when you're close enough to them.

In Socom 2 you could see their name regardless of where they were on the map (unless super super far away).

He's talking about when your cursor is over an enemy....

In which case, like I had said earlier, i believe their name shows up if you are close enough to them, just like in Socom 2, although I could be wrong.
