.KICK Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 The patch broke the gameEvery god damn server, you stop every 30th second while EVERYONE else is still moving! You get the "Connection Error" icon, you stand still and everybody can just shoot at you. Christ! Oh dear :/ So this really is a beta then and not a demo!

popisdead uk Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 It is a BETA, always has been. As for problems, I've had none since the patch, it's been running loads better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted September 9, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted September 9, 2008 Oh dear :/ So this really is a beta then and not a demo! I thought it was always a beta? :pinch: (I haven't read this topic really, just home) Munky said he might have had an invite for me, but I dunno if that still stands. Anyone else got any invites kicking about? :p I've never really played Socom, but I'm looking forward to trying to get into it, as this is one game it seems we'll get a good NW community playing on the PS3.

Yes I know it is a beta but some people were referring it as a demo more than a beta :s http://community.eu.playstation.com/playst...thread.id=18330 Even the producer refers to it as a demo! :s Lets hope most of these problems are fixed by the time of release though (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scazza Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 It says "Demo" in the title when you download it "Socom Confrontation MP Demo". But I would definately class it as a Beta, especialy now they have released a patch for it because I have never known anyone release a patch for a demo........ Audio. I may have one for you but it all depends if Kirk used it, as he said he couldnt use it so it may still be valid (as I think it expires either today or on the 11th/12th).

Sethos Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 It is a BETA, always has been.As for problems, I've had none since the patch, it's been running loads better! Hahaha, I said to myself while I was making dinner "I wonder if Popisdead is going to post, saying he had no problems" :rofl: I went to 4 servers, all had this problem. ( Asked the players and they had the problem as well ) The game is only about a month away and they are still having such problems? Games tend to go gold at this point! And this multiplayer-exclusive game haven't even nailed something as important as the netcode yet. That worries me, greatly. As for the "Beta/demo" thing, I believe Americans are fed with the "Beta" story while Europeans are fed with "Multiplayer Demo". Shijima, an official EU Forum/developer calls it a MULTIPLAYER DEMO, while I was downloading the file name was SOCOM: Confrontation Multiplayer Demo. While the American invitation said Beta. Even on the "News" screen right after I installed the Patch it said "Multiplayer Demo". Keep arguing, because BOTH are right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popisdead uk Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 If I was having problems I would say so. Before this patch it was a bit hit and miss, now it seems far more stable. The game can go Gold, this is all server, backend configuration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted September 9, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted September 9, 2008 PM sent, didn't think you were home until tomorrow (Y) We planned the 4th-10th, but it was too much money to go for 6 days. 5 days was a good balance. Amsterdam is expensive. Cheers but! I'll be on soon guys, I gotta unpack and sort some other things out first before game playing :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted September 9, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted September 9, 2008 Downloading the beta now! No headset for my PS3 but :/ I might have an old USB headset somewhere, I'll have a look. If not and I like this, I'll go buy a headset this week. I got some cash leftover from Amsterdam. What headset is everyone else using for their PS3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
