I don't think any game will be up to par with COD4 graphically, at least not for a LONG time. Especially when its a dloadable game =/
Well even the COD4 downloadable beta looked better than this, minus the dorky knife animation.
this game is not bad actually, i like it. However i cant see people holding on to this game as long as they did SOCOM I and II. Besides the customizaton its just alittle too mediocre. But ill leave that impression aside from the full game release.

this went through perfectly! didn't think it would happen.
Yes it did look better than this, but my point is the FULL GAME is being released on BR and as a DL from the PSStore. Meaning, they're not going to make the beta have amazing graphics and then have to dumb them down when they release the game. The graphics look plenty good for me, especially since socom has never been about graphics (even though I loved the S2 graphics and thought the characters in s3/ca had great detail)
I melle'd someone in the back while he was stopped, and nothing at all happened. Perfect hit too. Guess its not like cod4. I agree the animation looks really stupid too.
I really dont know what to think. COD4 looks so much better graphically..even the frame rate while running in this beta sucks. I know its just a beta, but only minor changes will occur when the game is released. Basically what we see here is what we get.
The game feels kinda slow...like slow motion sometimes.. Even with light armor on. Im not too satisfied. I do like the hit detection and customization so far though.
Put any gun on automatic and it will move around like crazy.
When i was testing out the knife it pretty much took 2 times to kill with it. Which is pretty stupid. Were getting back on later bamf care to join?

That definitely only worked in Halo, every other game's melee MUST be a one hit kill, otherwise it does nothing but annoy me. Like Resistance, correct me if I'm wrong because I haven't played it in a very long time, but I believe that was two hit kill from a melee too, and the melee in that game sucked, I know that much.
You can shoot someone faster than taking two swipes at them, no?
It does sadden me that everyone always has to talk about graphics nowadays. Where you people not fans of the past Socom games? They were some of the ickiest graphics compared to a lot of other games, lol.
Also, the game seems just about as fast as the past socom games. People now have just been getting used to super uber fast jump all over yo face FPS games.
At first, I was little iffy on the idea that you can hear enemies if they are nearby. But after while, it was just so damn funny. I love it how the voices sort of have a muffle effect if they are in a building. I just love hearing people next door talking about ****.
I was in a room earlier, and there was no lag at all. It was about a 6v6, but it definitely seems like the servers have settled down a little bit, compared to earlier today.
Oh, and Omega, Mics are working....they have always been working for me ever since I got on the beta. Glad to see about 95% of the people so far have had a mic. A lot more than any other PS3 game. I could imagine even more people will have mics considering the full game comes with one.
Things I don't like so far, is the brightness. I really think they need to tone it down a little bit. The lit areas are way too damn bright, and makes it impossible to see enemies anywhere else. Also, the recoil is pretty tough. It is alright close range, but good ****ing luck trying to hit someone far away with an assault rifle. They are also too inaccurate. Even if you put it on single shot and try to hit someone, it seems like 1 out of 5 shots hit them.
Overall, pretty good. Would be great with some minor tweaks. Either way, I am not going to play this game for a month. Considering I never did like Crossroads, I don't think one map will bring a months worth of enjoyment. :P
I keep going in rooms waiting for people to green up for probably an hour each time... I played for 30 mins.. The room lagged worse then a ps1 game online.... (joke)
And people are already camping like it's affecting their ranks.. 10 mins I waited this kid sat behind a wall for 10 mins moving back and fourth sometimes popped his head out.. then ran away..
As of right now.. Joe's Raiting is... 4 out of 10.

Thanks for leaving out the super slow install time guys. I got all excited when my download hit 99%, and then the install started. 41% after like 10 mins. UGH, come on! I need to kill.

The room I was in pretty much had no lag. Just try to join a room that is under 6v6, and on the SMALL crossroads. You will get to try out more of the game, without the ridiculous lag.

My install took about 5 minutes, but it felt like it took 5 minutes to INITIALIZE the install, lol.
It incredibly slow right now. Takes like 4 minutes to get into a game and like 10 to get out of the game. Was really choppy when I started playing, and the sound didn't work. I have to say right now you're definitely not missing much. Downloaded nice a quick though.
