thanks and have great day at school...


also just so you know i do agree there is a difference between an rpg and a 203/79 but my view is don't use rpg or at4 heat in open rooms, only in rooms with friends who don't care, its respectful.

also you say your cool with not using it in clan wars etc so why use it in open rooms?all you will do is piss ppl off and make alot of enemies.you wanna have fun?learn to use different stuff or kill ppl up close, impress with skills !

concerned citisen of the greatest socom site out there!

well i see ur point with m203's but i will still use rpg/at4 sometimes and yes i am 15 and yes i go to school but that does not mean im a f@g that uses 203 every game and team kills and has no skills at all. i think i have lots of skill in the game (not saying im the best or even better then u)but i have lots of skills i love useing hk5sd or odd wepons (f50/hk5k/9mm) :P

PS:i love Chain Reaction

I think that it all depends on who or how your playing. I think that RPG's/AT-4 are the easiest weapon to avoid being killed by. If you do think about it, it has the loud sound, you can see it coming, it doesnt move that fast, and it leaves a trail you know exactly where the person is! I personally never use RPG's/AT-4 because of those reasons, also it takes to long to pull it out and take aim and get a kill.

I thought it was 18?? In the user agreement thing that everyone always skips, it says "By accepting you are verifying you are 18 years or older or have a legal adult with you" or something like that.

yes for user agreement 18 but to buy the game itself you have to be 17 +


for online its 18 because they know by then you atleast have a lil common sence and curtosy but they also arent stupid and know kids play but hey thats why you shoot them in the back and ote their punk azz if they start yellin in the mic holdin it or team killin, i aint against kids, im against idiots

[AI3]

I like to team kill with it.

[SOTG TALENT]

the only time "we"(the clan im in) uses them is when the seals can get the AT-4 and terr's get the RPG7. of course we play in our own rooms where we dont care. somtimes we even have a rocket war on vigilence every now and then.

I don't post much, but this is getting out of hand. Lufang, or whatever your name is, you compare rpg/m203 to chop blocking. Horrible comparision! Chop blocking is illegal, rpg/m203 are not, they are in the game, use them. What you should compare them to is a dunk in basketball. Its an easy way to get 2 points, if you can and want to dunk then do it. If you can do it really well, then do it with some flash. It may not show "respect" but some people don't care about respect, I being one of those people. And please don't respond calling me a school kid, or teenage f@g, cause in the words of Martin Lawrence "i'm a grown @ss man." You guys complaining about weapons are like the idiots complaining about scrambling QB's in madden. Its part of the game, and I didn't buy the game to have you "weapon snobs" tell me which weapons I can and cannot use.[/quote]

Just because it's in the game it's okay to use them? What about guns in real life? They are around to use but it doesn't make it okay. It's SOCIALLY UNACCEPTABLE. Society has come up with a RULE saying no shooting guns at other people. Knives are meant to cut meat but that doesn't mean you can kill people and cut them up at will. Sure you can chopblock if you desire, but again, that particular group of people has decided its cheap and illegal. Socom 2 is nothing but a huge society of players who enjoy a common game. Among those players, guns like the M203, M79, and AT4H are SOCIALLY UNACCEPTABLE. Yes the developers of the game put them in, but the PLAYERS have decided it's unfair. You CAN CHOOSE to use them, but don't be surprised if people vote you out, call you a noob, teamkill you, or if the enemy pulls out an even worse gun. You obviously haven't played much Socom if you've never been on a Terrorist team and gotten annihilated by a bunch of noobs on the Seals using 203s, or vice versa, been on a Seal team and gotten annihilated by a Terrorist team with M79s. Fact of the matter is these guns make the game UNFAIR. The players of Socom have discovered this fact and this is why the guns are looked down upon. If the majority of players didn't think they were cheap, it wouldn't be a rule that you hear about constantly. Sure a few noobs like yourself may disagree, but the overwhelming power of the Socom community says otherwise. Lets face the fact of the matter, anyone whose played this game online a few times knows the deal. The guns wouldn't be banned, and these bad things wouldn't happen to people who used them, if the majority of players supported their use. You might disagree, but the majority of players do not like grenade launchers. AT4s are the worst of all! All you gotta do is point it directly at the guy no matter how far, and boom he's dead. If I wanted to play "I saw you first" I'd just start playing Halo.

It's not comparable to a dunk because most players in basketball would dunk if they could. In fact, when people dunk, players and fans give that dunker extra respect. But if Shaq came in and started dunking and was getting 50 points a game and totally dominating basketball, then maybe the players and fans would have an issue, and create a rule to ban dunking. That's what we've created on Socom, a socially accepted rule against certain guns. Sure you can chop block if you want, but the rule was created because other players consider it cheap. This doesn't mean you don't have the power of choice to choose to chop block, just that it's illegal to do so. It's the same thing. Use the M79s or 203s all you want, but you won't get very far in any public server. Yeah your right, you can choose any gun you want. That doesn't mean other players have to like it. You'll either be voted out instantly, or perhaps you might make it a couple of rounds, or a couple of games. Sooner or later though other players will have enough of it and get rid of you. BTW I bet your one of those guys that only plays on Seals, and you always choose an IW, hmm?

[dienow]

What you say makes alot of sense if, a very senical if at that, you accept two premises.
1) I give a rats *** about the Socom Community.
2) I'm a noob and therefore I must use the weapons because that is the only reason I would believe they should be accepted.

Lets address 1....I don't play the game to be accepted in your community, I play the game to have fun. If you want a room where weapons are banned and only certain things can be used, then go create a private room, don't bring that nonsense into the public rooms. Furthermore, until there is a poll of the 100,000 or so unique players on Socom, don't speak as if you have a concensus of what weapons are acceptable and which ones aren't. For every "weapons snob" I know legit players who don't care what weapon you use and realize the benefits and draw backs of each. Once again, I liken this to the idiots who don't like scrambling quarterbacks in Madden, IF ITS IN THE GAME, ITS IN THE GAME. SO IF ITS PART OF WAR, ITS GONNA BE IN A WAR GAME You do understand that socom is a third person, war and tactical strategy game? I don't understand who died and made you guys the ultimate determiners of what is and isn't a noob gun. I'm sure over in Iraq the soldiers jump out the Humvee and say, please don't shoot that rocket at me Mr. Bad Guy, only noobs use rpgs

Furthermore, your argument fails because toward the end of Socom 1, everyone glitched, there where more glitchers than none glitchers. Does this mean that the Socom community has now accepted glitching and therefore I must glitch? Hell No, it means you idiots take the game too serious and will go along with whatever you think everyone else agrees with. All the while ruining the game. If next week idiots say that m67's are noob grenades and only use HE's then i'm sure you'd be all for that? Quit being such a follower and instead have fun and GET BETTER. If a guys uses a rpg, shot him in the head while he's on a knee. If a guy has a shot gun, back up and shot him in the head. If a guy has an IW80, get an M14 or shot gun, get up close and rape him. Or better yet, snipe him. If this nonsense continues, we will all be playing with flashbangs and smoke because everything else will be considered noob. F'ing retarded.


Second, the "you're a noob thats why you think that" or "you're a little kid so you don't matter" arguments are getting old, because I personally think the people who cannot adjust to different weapons are the real noobs and as far as me being a stupid little kid, well i'm a 23 year old law student who is about to make law review at the best school in the south. Check my name and stats, on any three of my legit captain names. The one and only DATDAMNGOOD or Gen. Patton or JP DA GREAT and my clan GEN will be happy to whipe the floor with you any day, with whatever weapons you deem appropriate for the *** whipping and on maps that are alledgely one sides such as breach maps are deathtrap. You know why we can do this? Because we don't complain, we just get better.

And one more thing, test the IW80 and the STG, they are damn near the same gun and I hear no one complaining about the STG, why is that? Because all this noob gun talk is just a bunch of idiots jumping on the online bandwagon and calling whatever gun its popular to call a noob gun, a noob gun.
