New to Socom

[.KILLIXX.]

Hi all, i am new to Socom i was wondering if i could get some advice. When i first started playing online, i was told that i was a noob for using the IW and the STG. i was wondering, is it really a noob gun? i can see more like the machine guns with 100 bullets, or a RTK or F90. also, if it is not, what attachments do u guys think is best for the IW and STG. If it is, what attachments are better on the M4A1 and the RA-14. TY all!

just play your game and dont worry about what others say. Your just supposed to have fun. You will just get voted if you use a 203 or GL, Airburst. Its best to put either a medium scope, front grip or rifle laser on the gun along with a silencer.
Seals best rifles are IW or m4a1, HK36.
Terrorist- ra14, 552 (my fav) or STG

I've never heard anyone call another player a noob just because they used the IW or STG. No, they're not noob guns, in s3/ca at least. Try out the front grip and a suppressor or rifle laser and suppressor.

thanks guys. i didn't think so, but i am new to the online world of Socom, but i am clueless . So which do you guys think is better though, the front grip or the rifle laser? both seem to do little, and the r.l. make the IW seem inacurate?? thanks again!

front grip and rifle laser are supposed to both make your gun a little more accurate. I use the front grip on my guns, unless its citadel where i use front grip and rifle laser.

Yes.

Overrun by cheaters, and just got boring. Maybe if it came to you ~2 years ago, then would have been a good time to start.

Most likely one of those cheater type players (Cheaters can do that BTW).
It's also possible that lag made a difference?

Anyway be aware that there are players with modded discs(Cannot explain the process, because it's against the rules of this forum) that use it to have infinite health, unlimited ammunition, unlimited carrying capacity, ETC.

I suggest to you that you check out the Tips and Tricks section of this forum for some really good points and strategies offered by our more veteran Socom players.

As for the Rifle laser vs. front grip. If you plan on staying crouched or in a standing position for any length of time use the front grip, if you like staying in a prone position or running and gunning go with the laser because it make your cross hairs little more tight and adds a red dot in them giving you a better range of accuracy. On big maps with a big field of sight go with a silencer #2 and a high scope (Map ex: Harvester), for smaller maps (EX: Citadel) try using a front grip or rifle laser with silencer #1

Hope that helps
