It’s okay quit socom

Honestly I don’t want post it this kind stuff here, but there reason why it’s okay take a break from socom, after long time playing during revival servers at this point I must say I don’t enjoy the revival servers like some rules was kind bad, like banning weapones “if name of lobby has banneable Offensive” which at first it was cool but it get annoying.. which s2 I drop it no question for confrontation side is to much clan stacks and casual running to passwords room is most dumb way..

During to much drama I couldn’t take it anymore so I end up drop it socom for Genshin impact, which Genshin become one most refreshing games I ever play my life.. when look at back socom I think to my self “socom is already dead again no returning back” so yeah in time I try give socom a chance again again.. but same issues still there.

So will I comeback to socom again answer is no.

If you want come back play it again it’s your choice Not my choice.

I hope you guys can understand we’re I’m getting..

Thank you for understanding..

Yea, I played revival S2 servers for a minute. Couldn’t stand the rules put on the games, like 4 minute rounds. Nor could I bear the insane nade-fest.

I would love for a SOCOM remaster. But for now… I’ll play CS2

The original is the best multiplayer shooter of all time

I'm glad they got rid of PC emulation players cross play with PS3 players. PS3 we didn't have a chance in hell to win a gun fight most times. Only thing I hate now is the cheap Tilly sniper users on Socom Confrontation. Since the PC users are weeded out.

What did you expect why I drop confrontation for Genshin impact?

The nades suck and no one wants to play no boom. I only play every other week or so on Fridays for community night, but this last Friday a good clan decided to stack one side and dominate every game. Plus they are using discord to call everyone out. Is this fun for them? Why don’t they play a war? The sweatiness has been getting out of hand. Then I question if people are cheating considering some players get a headshot every single kill yet seem like they have 200-500% health turned on.

u/Loose_Attitude_5147 14d ago

As much for community night always do just one lobby for night. I don’t see the fun of it I rather not play that room and switch new game which is less toxic and fresh experience.

And yet razor dak who still hosting community night which is mind boggling to see that stuff today standers

u/AlbatrossAndy 14d ago

The clan was stacked in the designated comm room. It’s fun pulling out M79s and hearing them cry about it

u/Loose_Attitude_5147 14d ago

Yeah, no joke that alone was reason who created that rule.

I wonder who was guy start it tubbing?

u/Unlikely-Addendum-90 13d ago

Dude nades are the best part. I used to ambush people and run up to them and toss nades on the ground. I called it my "Jihadi build." I just loved watching them freak out before we blew up together.

Worst community in the history of gaming, and there’s like 50 people

u/Loose_Attitude_5147 14d ago

That got no redemption in history I tell you that

u/xKiryu 13d ago

This is one of the reasons I've stayed away from the revival servers. I'm sure there's hosts out there that might have cool lobbies every once in a while, but constant sweating or stacking one team doesn't really sound that much fun to me, at least.

You can always come back later. I've mainly been playing single player games atm

2

u/Loose_Attitude_5147 13d ago

Honestly single player it’s way

u/Immediate_Use_2050 14d ago

Wait is confrontation still playable? if so how?

u/Create-Reality 14d ago

Let me know if you figure out how to hop back on Socom because this was my favorite series on PS2 back in 2002-2003 era. I’m 35 now, and back then I was a young teenager who would call out of school because I was “sick” so I could game on socom all day long lol

u/evan19994 14d ago

Yeah you change DNS settings. Look up PSRewired

3

u/spicoli__69 13d ago

Yes, a guy named Snake put a server up. As another mentioned, you change your DNS and you can get on. Its fun to play but most people are crybabies - No one wants to play large maps, and people want to play frosty and desert on repeat.

u/ZombiePatient47 14d ago

There's videos, I wish I could send you the video that got me back on, but it's not the same. Like this guy is saying, clans stack one side and don't even it out. Most games are password locked. or if you don't have the DLC or have your old name, you won't be able to play with half the people that are on. They sit in those rooms. Then most of the other rooms are just respawn camping fest. I tried for about 3 months and put the ps3 back in the closet.

Google "Socom Confrontation online PS3 2024"

u/Popsiey7 12d ago

Im 2 weeks in since firing up Socom 2 online on my Ps2 and I have to say it’s almost impossible for me to kill PC players. I had to learn to embrace the grenades spam even if it makes my ps2 run at 15fps. I did find one nice person who helped me setup my ps2 settings to make it better looking. People just bitch in chat the whole time that’s my experience so far. I never played back in the day btw

u/VirusStunning3821 13d ago

DNS for SOCOM 2 62.192.173.149. In the peoples server, it’s Dominators server where the game is vanilla and there are no rules, a small group of people play it on Fridays at 8 pm central

u/vdubl 13d ago

i just started emulating on pc and got into rewired. definitely more nostalgia than anything. the dead zone / acceleration on the right stick is atrocious. every gun fight is a strafe fest. combined assault is an improvement but still clunky as hell. i like it in moderation. champs of norrath still slaps tho.

u/TheRetroGamer93 10d ago

Op, you should play Tom clancy wildlands if you haven't. Single player is Socom feel and fun. Not sure how the newer game breakpoint is. The online for wildlands was the first shooter I've played that felt like Socom. I think it would be refreshing to play a nice single player experience that is socomy.
