Have all the codes been given out ? I entered way before my friend and he received one and i did not, I was just wondering why that is ? Are there more codes to be released ?

Sorry, yes I meant email james@palgn.com.au if you're having problems with the code. Check here to see if you won; http://palgn.com.au/did_i_get_a_socom_code.php

To all of PALGN's regs complaining; give the new guys a chance. You don't create a very welcome environment by being negative about every post they make. It obviously going to take some time before people understand PALGN's forum dynamics if they do choose to post here.

I'm also not closing this thread because otherwise people would create new topics if they're having problems with the codes.

And thank you to everyone who has said thank you so far

Ok, I've gone through & cleaned out the bulk of the offensive posts & meta discussion about all the people posting in this thread. This is not the place for either - it's only for discussion about the codes.

If anyone continues to post either type of post in this thread they will be dealt with harshly.

Thanks for the code, PALGN .. best gaming site evah!

For those that missed out take some comfort in that it is as buggy as anything and has horrendous load times. I spent an hour last night trying to connect to games only to have it constantly freeze up.

I was deeply unimpressed too.

After spending ages sat in the game lobby for a game with all players marked as ready and nothing happening for ages I gave up on that game.

I then tried another which seemed to be going into the game but spent so long on the loading screen I just gave up.

I'll give it one more go at some point, but not impressed at all. Right now I don't see this even beginning to compete with Warhawk for me.

I know it's only in Beta, but as a software developer myself, I consider that pretty poor.

It's case sensitive.

The load times are horrendous, a couple of minutes. Also, I hate using the D-Pad to zoom in, then having to manually zoom out with it. Will give it another go, to see if I like it. Right now it is just mediocre. A lot of people have mics though, that's rare.

SOCOM: Confrontation Public Beta 1.10 Patch and Server update
Posted by Seth Luisi
We will be performing server maintenance and rolling out a new patch on September 9th at 5am PDT, 1200 GMT. The SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation game servers will be unavailable during the maintenance. The server maintenance is not expected to last longer than 1 1/2 hours.

SOCOM: Confrontation Public Beta 1.10 Patch

* Adds support for European EULAs.
* Adds support for dedicated servers located in Europe and Australia.
* Addresses a number of stability and late joining issues.
* Reduce the volume of the proximity chat by 50%.

The server maintenance and patch are not meant to address all issues. We will have more updates to both the server and client in the future.

Regards,
SOCOM Confrontation Online Team

Reduces proximity chat. I heard someone talk really loudly, hurt my ears, I thought he must have been yelling into the mic. If the load times are under 20 seconds then it will be bearable. I hate waiting 2-3 mins to load.

Anyone know who long the beta lasts? I think downloading the client capped my limit

Before you give me a negative you everyday forumers that didn't get a code, if i had of known it would cap my internet, i would of probably given my code (apparently i have to wait 2 weeks). My internet provider hasn't/won't give me a usage link for some reason -_-

i really want to try SOCOM...i never got a ps2 or a psp and if this is rather fun, i will probably end up gettin this and LBP

I really do wonder how they are going to pull it all together by the release date (16/10/2008).

Surely CoD4 will remain FPS of choice on PS3?

Are there still loading time issues? They do have a lot to do but lets hope it all comes together by next month. I am sure /S6 can do it. Sony has a lot running on this game to deliver. Call of Respawn 4000 doesn't hit the spot for me. Socom is my only 1st choice.
