Recently Slant Six recently realeased a map pack. Anyways apparently Slant 6 made a new booster pack. It costs either 10$or 15$. Anyways that stuff was supposed to be included free. Patch v1.6 was supposed to add some weapons and other things for free. I love how S6 is charging us for stuff that they promised free; thegame is still missing3 or4factions from launch that were supposed to be there. (i.e. teams: the U.K.'sSpecial Air Service (SAS), Germany'sKommando Spezialkräfte (KSK), Spain's Unidad de Operaciones Especiales (UOE), and France's1er Régiment Parachutiste d'Infanterie de Marine (1er RPIMa) ). So what do you guys think?

EDIT^ the links dont work, I copied and pasted the info so it would be as accurate as possible.

oh. Didnt know that. Im in the beta and its fun and all but some of the games mechanics need to be worked out. I hope that this doesnt "flop"as badly as Socom : Confrontation. The game is fun and all but man it has problems.

Those things were never meant to be free, as stated on their blog 1.6 would add free things while the dlc would cost money

yeah i realized that after i posted. I thought that they released patch 1.6 or w.e. w/o weapons and everything and decided to charge us for what was supposed to be freeand included with that. Anyways its dumb how they released a map pack before a long promised patch.

You gotta get your stuff straight, they released patch 1.6 before the dlc because 1.6 set the game up for the week after when the dlc would be released

and yeah i dled that only to find that all the new weapons would have to be payed for thus leading to my understandable conclusion of the first post. After that i reasearched it some more only to find out thata new patch with updates and free weapons as well as bug fixes was supposed to be realeased soon but was then changedto TBA.

ok let me explain it more clearly. The new patch was originally supposed to support new weapons, maps and a variety of bug fixes.. right? I downloaded the patch and there were noupdated weapons or maps, but instead supportavailable for the new dl pack. I was saying that patch v1.6 was originally supposed to have the above, but the above for the most part was not there. get it now?

Alright I see what your saying but let me try to explain. Patch 1.6 which is out did add free weapons and different clan factions but like I said was NEVER and I repeat NEVER going to give free maps or anythign of the sort. As they stated on the blog, patch 1.6 would add many things for free and it would follow with DLC which is the maps and other weapons that you would have to pay for. Conclusion 1.6 did add things but was never going to add maps and they never said they would provide things for free that are now purchasable

Don't bother with Confrontation and get MAG.

Then wait until Zipper makes Socom 4. That's my plan. ;)

No one shelled out that much for the game because the game was 40. Me, I feel like I paid 10. I got a PS3 official headset and socom for 60, as it was a bundle. That headset alone is 50 bones. And as was said, they stated they would charge from day 1

TC, get your stuff straight. It has NEVER been said the maps would be free, never. Only haters hoping they would cause of some of the issues with the game. You posted factions that if I'm correct have been in the game since its release.

I think your hating on the best, most competitive tactical shooter on the market, a game in which I don't think you play. Ranting on a map pack that give you 5 new maps for $15 now, was $10 for the first 3-5 days. When people gladly pay $10 for 3 maps for cod4 which only 2 were playable in MP, and didn't add NO change to play style.

Get off of the hate wagon TC, Socom Nation is alive and well my friend. I've played 7 maps now for over a year. While 15 maps in MW2 got old after 2 weeks of play if I got that much out them. Don't talk about Socom issues, and forget about drop host issues, lag issues, broken game glitches and being able to party up issues in mw2.

Don't hate just cause you can't shoot straight.

Your wrong about a few things my friend. I like this game but I am not good at it. Im annoyed at couple of issues with it. There was supposed to have been four different military groups to choose from, earlier stated. When you go to customize you characters, there are two. Commando and Mercenary. No SAS, KSK 1er RPIMa and the UOE. But the game had a much different feel than from the pre launch beta. Yes i know it s called a beta for a reason. For the people that say it was never $60 your wrong. It was 60$ at launch with a mic and $40 if im right at launch with out a mic.

To extract, take a VIP to the extraction point - the green markers on the map.

Right, you need to explore the game more. The different factions are part of the clan system. Make a clan and choose one to play as. Also, Cold Front is awesome. Also, again, maps were never going to be free.

THey said there would be free DLC which there was, some guns and camo. They never said all DLC would be free, also it was $10 the first weekend and is now $15. It is worth it for 5 maps and a few guns and such.

Exactly, and Coldfront pak is definitly worth it.
