I am very dissapointed with Socom: Confrontation. I like the franchise, and I wanna get into the game, its not about me, but its about the game floping. I really dont want to see it fail. I ususlly dont gripe about textures, expecially being an MGS fan, but im sorry, this game looks like PS2 graphics. The PS3 is my Favorite system this gen(I dont have it yet, and I plan on getting a 360, and possibly a wii as well), and I do not want to see this game fail. Are they going to put more polygons in the character models? I mean the environments are horrible as far as textures go, but the character models are just insane. I am not a fanboy, and I really do not want to see this game fail, nor do i want to see the destruction of yet another franchise. I know it will sell very well anyways, but still, I dont want it to score badly because of these claylike models.

I also figured that the gameplay vids would be much better, and that screens wouldnt depict the actuall visuals accurately, but I was dissapointed yet again. I do however like the destructable environments, but I wish (and strongly think) that they could improve on the textures, and put more polygons. The environments need touching up badly.

I will end up picking it up either way, but someone who has been following this game please enlighten me, and give me the 411 about the development. Please tell me they are not planning on releasing this game with the terrible visuals below. I just dont want to see all the lemmings in here claiming OWNAGE on SW...."Teh teckshures...teh inviromintz....PStree not capabul of teh nectz gin!!!11"

I want lems to be jealous of this game (even though im getting both consoles lol)

imo socom has never been too terribly great graphics wise. It's the strong gameplay and online community that make these games shine.

Could be fun. I dont think ill be into it thow. Im looking forward to the next in the series thow. Which is also being made "the single player game." I still find it odd that theirs two completely different teams doing two SOCOMS? That have nothing to do with each other. But im sure Sony will write that check extra big for the better of the two latter :P

"Are they going to put more polygons in the character models?"

That's the deciding factor between a good game and bad? I'm sorry but this thread is full of fail...

no, I didnt say that, matter of fact, I said the contrary of that in my post. this isnt system wars, you FAIL for trying to confront somebody. I also said I liked it, and was going to buy it either way, and I just didnt want lems bashing it for the textures. You also FAIL for not reading the origional post.

Worry about whether it is fun or not and if you like it or not ....... don't worry about it flopping or what other people say about it. See you online , while you're looking at and whining about the textures I will be shooting you in the face.

Yea I kinda agree. Its hard to bash a PS3 brag thread, on the PS3. Thats why these are the PS3 boards!!!!! Because it is the best machine and were fans! And we can say that, because its the PS3 boards. Their should be no other reason to be here. But alot sure are interested, that have nothing to do with PS3. Its not the gaming boards, is it. No its not the gamin boards. Its not the system wars, nope!! Its the PS3!!! boards.

its all on how awesome the thing is.

Its not like if I go to the "01 02" LS1 Trans Am Boards. "Yea the car I really own, and yea its faster than yours lol" Everyone their talks about how bad Trans Ams are. Ye we talk about a few probs we have. But not like the made up on purpose junk you see here. Go into a Trans Am Board. And ask why a Stock Trans Am 1 sec slower than a Viper in the quarter. And ask that question again and again every single day!!!! And it would not seem right. They would know you were a fool. But oddly you get that here.

The developer working on Socom Confrontation (Slant Six) is working closely with Zipper for technical support while their working on yet another Socom game that will have both single player and on-line support. If people would go to http://socom.us.playstation.com/and post any thing they want to see in these games and there is a poll where you can vote for your favorite map. This can help the developer come-up with the best Socom they can that's going be developed for people that wants the game to be the best game with the most popular maps of all the Socom games.

I think the good ole Socom days are over(socom 2 days). It seems to me that Sony tried to make the game like everyother game and think that bigger is better. Well Sony its not, you and your devs have royally messed up Socom.

TC look at warhawk. Warhawk had the crappiest graphics compared to other sony exclusives such as uncharted, ratchet, heavenly sword. But look at the score. Warhawk achieved the highest score even though its graphics weren't that good. So please dont say SOCOM is gonna flop because it graphics.

More like this time last years. Confrontation will probably be Socom 3 with smaller maps and no vehicles.

I love Socom, but I'm definately giving this one a pass. Multiplayer only? No thanks.

Sony didn't develop the Socom games and if you want the best maps from Socom 1, 2, 3, or Combined Assault you should get involved with http://socom.us.playstation.com/and post what you would like to see in the Socom games. There is a poll of the best maps of all these games that you can vote for your favorite or if you never played Socom on-line there is even a vote for that on the site. So the thing is if you would like to see Socom return to it's roots then it's time to get involved with the site and state your opinions.

First off, SOCOM games have never been to graphically inclined. So why would you guess that this one would be? Second, those are really old pictures, check out the Socom Website for more news, and to see how it's looking now.

It's been a year since they showed us ANYTHING on this game and they don't even have a release date announced on it yet... so I'm pretty sure it's going to be really prettied up by the time it comes out. Either way... b/w Haze, KZ2, & Resistance 2... I don't plan on making much room for any more shooters this year.
