this is just a game to tide ya'll over while zipper completes their socom 4, which is both SP and MP. this is basically the GTHD (gran turismo HD) for SOCOM. it's just a beefed up socom 2. socom 4 will probably be much better and since zipper has been working on it since a lil after the beginning of socom 3 then all the better. Zipper's "secret" project is coming out Fall '08 so theres plenty of time to make socom 4 even better. This game is to make sure that the fans still stay fans while waiting and not go on to other games like GRAW.

I did not write that correctly. I meant to say that you can run with RPG's. Although it does look like it takes some time to reload one.

I can't wait for tese games. I think the Zipper version will have a really in-depth single player as well as multi player. It would be cool to see BUD/S training in the game. As fro Confrontation, I think it will be good because Slant Six has said that they were listening to fans saying that they want the game to go back to being its addictive self again. They know what the fans want and now they're going to recreate that gameplay experience to the best of their ability. Plus, they are bringing back old maps and re-vamping them. Hopefully, they'll do a good job. Also, has anyone noticed the new camera angles. The croshairs are now to the right of the guy. This is like the camera angle in SOCOM fireteam bravo 2. The other camera angle is seen in the video when the terrorist zooms in. I personally like this view better than the normal first person screen that we had before. I don't know how it will play on Confrontation though. Well have to wait until we can try it out.

It looks more like an RE4 over the shoulder view, but i really like the old view better:(

First, I would like to correct you by stating that the camera view on all other SOCOM's was not first person if that is what you mean, it was third person. If you mean the zoom camera, than nevermind. But yeah, this looks like it should be a good game. I say good because there are still things that need to be tweaked, like how the guys weren't being effected by recoil physically. As for the Zipper title goes, I wouldn't be surprised if it was single player only, but I doubt it won't have multiplayer. I am definately glad that a new developer is taking over for Confrontation, but not really too optimistic at this time. The only reason being that they have no experience in the SOCOM universe. Sure, they may have done some shooters (I don't know if they have or not), and the video may look promising, but will they know just how to blow our minds like Zipper did with SOCOM 2 & 3 (I say three because even the people that said they were dissapointed by it, I know that they found something cool about it in the beginning, and how cool were the vehicles in the beginning). And as the maps go, yes they are going to be smaller, but not like Fish Hook small, more like Foxhunt (from what I have read and heard). So, all in all, I am looking forward to the game, but I'm not expecting a game that will be so good that I will piss, sh*t, and orgasm all at the same time in awe (in other words, like what some of you doubters are saying, a greatly great game).

They've already confirmed that the Socom Zipper is making will have both SP and MP.

I am not at all excited about this game or trailer. When I saw the trailers for socom 3. I drooled from on my keyboard. So did I when socom CA came out. But when I saw this I was like, WTF did zipper do my favorite online tactical shooter? Sure this game is showing off some impressive visuals but the gameplay looks slow and cumbersome. The players move like stiff machines walking in mud. I would rather choose excellent gameplay over stunning graphics. (See Grand theft auto and socom 1-3/ca)

So when Krave and others say that this was not zipper's socom and that they are truly making their own next gen socom 4 for the ps3 I was relieved. Because Socom Confrontations would make me leave socom for good and stick to Socom/Ca as long as the servers still ran. To me this game looks more like all the other socom lookalike tactical shooters. I dont want socom to turn into those games. Vehicles was a nice addition to Socom 3 and I want that to stay the same. This game makes me want to hurl

Im a lot more excited about confrontation then the one zipper is making. I could care less about the vehicles. You need huge freakin maps to use them on which is the biggest problem now. I want old style s2 game play where you actually see somebody. I probly won't be buying the zipper one if it's anything like these last two. I would prefer to do away with this 16 on 16. Go back to 8 on 8 or maybe 10 on 10 max that's plenty.
