I think it'd be interesting to see Socom as a FPS. If Sony mimmicked the camera system/controls of Rainbow Six Vegas, I'm sure you'd all get over your FPS hatred quickly. Here's a good video demonstrating it:


However, Sony hasn't proven to think too much in terms of quality and enjoyment, so you'd probably get stuck with a standard FPS camera system.

I think if SOCOM moves to the chaos of first person then it may lose many loyal fans to other games. Reason being is that SOCOM is at it's best in third person unless you're a quicksniper. The idea of third person is to give you a better feel of where you are in your environment and in relation to your "enemy". I personally find 1st person very hard to play, the strategy of ambush seems to dissappear completely. The best approach is to give the option as it is now, just upgrade the graphic to show your weopon and arms instead of just a crosshair. This would give everyone what they want, a choice. If it goes strictly to first person I will be highly dissappointed as well as all the original socom fans. A.WOLF www.blackopsclan.org join today!

i hate first person shooters. you dont get a periff like you do in socom. like in socom you can kind of see whats off to the sides like in real life. in halo, its so hard to know when someone is coming at you. i hate 1st person.

If zipper changes to 1st person, then they may as well change the name of the game also because it will be a completely different game. I'll stick to CS:S for my 1st person needs and SOCOM for my 3rd person. They need to go back to SOCOM 2 online and base the next game off of that awesome online experience.

I can't believe this...

SOCOM is seriously a game where everyone's formed a crutch to the 3rd Person aspect. Like....

I can't tell you how many games I go through, and about 90% of the players are hiding behind walls, and using third person to peek out around it.

But when I started playing in first person, I started raping and pillaging, and I really don't hide behind corners, I peek out, and see what's ahead and then move up based on that.

I don't know.... What's my point again?

Oh yeah,

1) 3rd Person view is a crutch.... Get over it. Even if they changed it, a majority of you would buy it, I don't give 2 damns what you say about it.

2) I can't believe that people actually like the whole "I can see you, baish!" thing going on w/ wall campers.

3) First person is cool as hell, you can see around a corner before the 3rd Person user can, and light em the fsck up, .

Its all a rumor don't believe it, they don't have any information out right now on socom 4 and they might not even come out with one. Don't believe anything right now until zipper actually comes out and says something about the game.

I didnt say that it was a fact that it would happen. I said what is your opinion if it would go to first person.

Who do these talks come from? I highly doubt it would go exclusivley to first person. They will keep both first and thrid, the way it is now. If not, then many players will be turned off including myself.
