[Official] SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation


Recommended Posts

I've joined at it's just Larry for now!

Is there a neowin clan on the go or something?

I asked this earlier, but does anyone in the UK have a link to some good fairly cheap wireless headsets for the PS3? I have nothing USB in the house, and nothing bluetooth :(

I found an old PC headset, but it's the two plugs like yours Sethos! :laugh:

Heard you loud and clear Larry!

That's a pretty good sounding mic you have there, is it anything brand specific?

ps. MI6Labs, unlucky! I completely suck, I don't know the maps/game modes or anything :laugh:

GF called me guys, have to bail for now :p I'll be back later if anyone is on, or definitely another night if not.

Someone got a free kill when my phone rang haha.

That was fun anyway (Y) I'm not too bad LOL :laugh:

ps. Technically everything fine here, couple of bits of lag that's all.

$15 Logitech USB Headphones, like their lowest model or next to lowest. And they work pretty damn good. :yes:

Ergh, right, means were screwed now then, if we thought it was annoyingly busy and slow now, its going to get far worse, lol.

And Sethos, you can't quit on us now, your our community clan leader. :p

And DirtyLarry hasn't added me back. *cries into pillow*

That's just a matter of assigning a new one, takes a second :p

But but, I can't quit you!

ahem.

But hey, here's hoping that patch will fix our main concerns and will make it a good, fun, and hopefully quick game to play, then you wont need to go anywhere. :p

When I saw the invite and chose it it said Invite Expired and the message disappeared, so I was to lazy to send you one.

So it was not intentional at all, send another and of course I will except, the more the merrier. (Y)

Im disappointed at how long it is taking to get this patch out.

Considering they know what is causing the issues, I would of assumed it wouldn't of taken that long to get it too us, especially with the qore users joining.

I added again, lol

Wait, they still haven't released the patch?!

Funny how my 'confidence in the developers' speech rings true, my god they seem lazy and downright useless.

And with that said, I'm finding my PS3 box and putting it on the Danish equivalent of Ebay one of these days. SOCOM was the last 'chance' I was willing to give the Playstation 3 and that failed.

The deadline for the patch is essentially release date (Y)

That's the date that really matters most, we're testing a build, not the final game. The general public aren't playing Socom yet and won't be till it's released.

Sad to see people throwing in the towel when you haven't played the final game, but I guess some of you are just like that!

Throwing in the towel on the beta if you have issues is one thing, but completely throwing in the towel on the game full stop is another.

^ what about KZ2 :/ or even RFOM2?

Obviously isn't interested!

At least he's doing the right thing.

I always follow the mentality if I don't like/aren't using, I'll sell/return.

Never understand people who sit on things worth 3 figure sums that don't use em/never will use em :p

    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
    • Who is paying for this 30x scale-up? Its sounds expensive.
    • Millions of users to benefit from Windows 11's new performance boost on Adobe Photoshop by Sayan Sen Despite the advent of AI-generated imagery, Adobe's Photoshop remains one of the most popular tools on this planet. Adobe does not have a publicly reported total user count but it's probably not wrong to assume there are millions. As of 2025, Adobe Creative Cloud has had approximately 41 million paid subscribers, many of whom likely use Photoshop. In addition, more than 166,000 companies worldwide are apparently also using the app. These figures are according to a very recent report by SQ Magazine. Out of them, it is fair to assume that many are probably running Windows. As such, there is good news for these users as Microsoft has announced Photoshop is getting a big 20% performance boost on x86-64 (AMD64) systems and a 13% bump-up on Arm devices. This is definitely great news for them as many have complained about the slow performance and general sluggishness of Photoshop on Windows 11 ever since the advent of the latter back in 2021. If you are wondering how Microsoft managed to do this, the answer lies in a combination of compiler-level optimizations and a technology called Sample Profile Guided Optimization (SPGO). According to Microsoft, Adobe worked closely with the company’s Visual C++ team and adopted the latest MSVC toolchain enhancements together with SPGO to squeeze more performance out of Photoshop’s CPU-bound workloads. Unlike traditional Profile Guided Optimization (PGO), which requires developers to create special instrumented builds and run lengthy training workloads, SPGO gathers performance data directly from optimized release binaries. This means Adobe could collect real-world usage information which gives a major advantage to this technique, as companies could leverage data collected from actual customer workloads rather than only relying on synthetic benchmark runs. In theory, this should allow optimizations to better reflect how users interact with software in the real world. Thanks to this, there are improvements to code layout, function inlining, hot-and-cold code separation, and other low-level tweaks that help processors execute instructions more efficiently. Essentially the compiler is better able to identify “hot” code paths, those which are most frequently executed, and optimize them accordingly.
    • "The 2TB Samsung 990 PRO NVMe SSD hits lowest price in over three months¨ I'd prefer to see the lowest price in over a year
    • Glad these prices are starting to come down, but that is still crazy. I bought the 2TB 9100 Pro (slightly more expensive version with PCIe 5.0) last year for $240.
