Earlier this week we performed a server update. This was the final step in fixing the latency (lag) issue some players were experiencing (Medley games being created on non native servers) - We have verified that this issue is now fixed.
Patch 1.41 will be deployed 2am on Monday, March 9th in preparation of the upcoming release of SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation in Europe. In addition to synchronizing all players with the European release, the 1.41 patch includes the following changes:
Last year I wrote an article titled, The State of SOCOM. I discussed my
love and history for the beloved third person shooter that helped pioneer
online multiplayer on consoles. It has been six years since we last had a
new SOCOM game.
Baffles me as to why they have not done anything with this franchise. Seeing as how it was #1 on the official PlayStation poll.
With all the trash put up weekly on the App Store why has nobody done a clone of this yet. I've been playing Defiance as my go to 3rd person since 2013 but still nothing like that old school Socom/Socom 2 up all night gameplay.
the only game on that list that's like socom is wild land if you want socom type games then you will have to invest in a PC
RAINBOW SIX: is the closest you'll get to Socom.
Also, in response to @lookatthisi
They let go the creators, and I think socom is a game that's hard to clone even the creators had a hard time making Socom 2, Socom 3.

"Would you purchase a game you can’t play for a single penny? Video game retailer GameStop seems to think that it is worth trying to sell to this market."
Depends the situation. Usually if they have a trade in X and get Y bonus for preowned purchases, a store will let you have the excess credit if you make 1 purchase and 1 cent is cheap enough where I wouldn't have to bother returning it or eating the cost out of laziness.

MAG will be missed, my all-time favorite shooter. They're shutting servers down in January.
hopefully this will fix the lag issues so they can finally work on the features that were promised... if this doesnt fix the lag, then this game is going to collect dust again...
Song simply dropped the ball big time with Socom Confrontation. This had all the potential to be an Ace game, it should've been delayed for a few months just to get all the issues fixed after the horrible beta. But again Sony was really stacked up with exclusives in the later part of 2008, this game was just a missed opportunity.
People still play this sub-par shooter?
*EDIT* @ below:
I thought everyone moved on to COD4
*EDIT*
I would like to try SOCOM but I'll wait until they release more patches. I keep reading about issues.
what can i say? I hope everything is fix and good to go, I am sure when they fix it all SOCOM fan that are now on the xbox will come HOME where they belong.
there is alot of hard core fan of this game
