Socom Update 1.50... It's a good one!

[BluePacific]

To those diehard Socom fans that are still playing, you'll be happy to hear about this update:

• Added the ability to join directly into a friend's game off of the friend's list.
  
• Added password protected custom games.
  
• Drastically improved the weapon selection ring. You can now move while selecting weapons and the weapon selection is much faster and more accurate.
  
• Slightly reduced the Famas accuracy.
  
• Improved the damage of the Desert Eagle. One shot kill with light and medium armor.
  
• Improved sniper rifle damage. One shot kills with bolt action rifles on light and medium armor.
  
• Fixed a large number of level exploits.
  
• Channel names are sorted alphabetically by default.
  
• Reduced the long fade in at the beginning of rounds to less than 1 second (the "darkness" is gone).
  
• Added a 30 second game start timer to games when greater than 60% of the players ready up.
  
• Clan patches are now displayed on your character in-game.
  
• Clan tags are now displayed with your player name in-game.
  
• Added center markers to all scopes and changed the color of the crosshairs so that they are visible at night.
  
• Kill cam stops following target after 5 seconds.
  
• Button prompts in death cam fade out after 5 seconds.
  
• Target Spotting now defaults to off.
  
• Weapons selected in-game are not saved to your custom loadout.

And just to point out, Confrontation is slowly "picking itself up". I have noticed in the past month or two, the lag has certainly decreased. 16v16 games are not as difficult to play as they used to be. And with the new information on Update 1.50, I'd say there's still light at the end of the tunnel for Confrontation.

I just bought this game about 2 weeks ago and I dont think its as bad as a game as people have told me. I like it because its tactical and it takes teamwork to win. I haven't seen any lag yet, I think people just hate it because its hard.

Been waiting for this for a while tbh. Downloaded it from the store after looking at very harsh reviews.
I don't know what they're talking about tbh.

Nothing wrong with the game, it's like any of SOCOM before it.
Great buy for £20 on store tbh.
How many people on here play it?

I'm looking for a clan. I'm not too bad, and i just want a group of people to play with tbh. Most fun i had gaming was on my ps2 with socom 1 and 2 with an old clan.

Ya i still play this game people think because its a tactical game it has to be realistic the weapons are change so there a bit more evened out its not like real life damage or nothing, its not a Realistic game is a Tactical game
