[J-Hood]

Quick note if you dont ask now then you may never know until the game comes out.

[BEER]

how exactly do the tazers work in multiplayer? does it stun them for a few seconds but they remain standing, or do they actually fall down?

can you arrest people in multiplayer or is it strictly shooting?

how exstensive is the character customization for multiplayer?

[blackcourage]

What kinda of tats are there and what seperates the Dons form thugs

[YoungGunna22]

r the accesories tight and can u wear like a bandanna and a hat or a durag and a hat???

[J-Hood]

Another quick note I will probably give details about each question in my answer. If I didnt add somthing somone said then I might of had trouble understanding the question. Hey blackcourage what are DAs?

[mbones50]

what about when u arrest people

[blackcourage]

how is the raid mode/robbery. No cars so police have to runn al the way to the bank or to the hosue. i heard about a alarm sounding. how does all of this go together

[EC_KING]

Sup Guys, I'm back from a little vac. I visited the guy in my S2 clan that has 25TL. The Graphics are TOP NOTCH. i didn't get to stay to long as i got to go in to work early tonight. But heres a few things that i know you guys would like to hear. I'm not going to let all the cats out of the bag either. But i think a few of the things here are good for us. ROUNDS/RESPAWN. YES!!!!!.. FRIENDLY FIRE [ON/OFF]...YES!!!!! DNAS ENABLED...YES.!!!!!! i got to feel the game for about 1/2 hour, thats not to much. OHHHH another BIG THING that R3/L3 issue in the Socom series..well don't worry. not a problem, you can fight it out and not worry about reloading in the middle... :p yea that sux.
ALSO...1 thing i was worried about was the music getting annoying playing all the time, BUT no it's not. theres good shyt for the tunes, and you can run up and "change the channel". i'm keeping in mind that it's still only the Beta so with that i give slack. not every option is open to use, which is understood. i'll look more into the game this weekend when i have more time to get back to his house.
Oh 1 other thing..not a big deal but i wanted to know this, the Beta is ONLINE ONLY. So i hope that add's alot of gas to the 25TL UPRISE... yes there were a few things that i think could be changed, but i'm not gona say, Plus i don't have a list yet...lol cya ltr.

edited late: ALSO you can make you name with the ALT Letters too.

[YoungGunna22]

wat u mean u dont have 2 worry about reloading?

[EC_KING]

YoungGunna22
wat u mean u dont have 2 worry about reloading?

those that play socom know what i mean about during a gun fight and you press down on the sticks it reloads. That sux because when your moving left/right or jumping around sometimes you get caught reloading while the other guy is shooting at you. NOT a problem in 25TL.

[VideoGameMaster]

good ish king....just what i wanted to hear..in other words..25 to life is pimp... :thumbsup: .....i was just wonderin..how is the hit detection??..im not gonna ask about lag cuz its the beta

[blackcourage]

so we can make our on tat thats great. Its a feature i was looking foward to

[mbones50]

they got rounds

[theeGhettOsnyper]

[viZZiOn]

[EC_KING]

blackcourage

Well if you mean TAGS as in the GRAFFITI, thats clearly stated in most of the press releases. I only touched looking into it, so i can't comment yet on it. But yes it's there :)

[EC_KING]

Oh i just seen this, i wrote down another thing about the game i seen, THE STATS part, Currently there are 23 stats that are tracked. I'm NOT going to post the cat's but it's Everything you would ask for :thumbsup: :D :thumbsup: GOOD SHyt DEVELOPERS!!!!!

[mbones50]

nice 23 ok thats good

[xplicit]

sounds like the game is beast

[blackcourage]

Well if you mean TAGS as in the GRAFFITI, thats clearly stated in most of the press releases. I only touched looking into it, so i can't comment yet on it. But yes it's there :)

Well like i said b4, some stuff is NOT activated for the Beta, and i did say that the "specials OF 25TL" i'm Not going to post about. I'll post about stuff that should be or things were used to in other game if it's there. But otherwise my friend, i'm going to leave the TAGS issue to the press releases. I don't want to ruin a "25TL Secret". Also if i wanted to say anything, i'm sure the REAL BETA guys will tell you NOT everything is working.

OH... as Far as NOT being able to PRONE, I first thought Dam!T... But playing for that little bit and just using your head, you release that the Developers must of took that into account. Because your cover "THINGS" are tall enough to hide you in the crouch/lean position. Also this game right now to me don't seem to be a CAMPERs DREAM, yes there are spots to go, But overall it to me seems like a run and gun FUN game. The game does feel like a cross between SOCOM1 and COUNTERSTRIKE to me a bit. Thats a GOOD thing. It's a K.I.S.S. type of game but well done. It was fun to play and i can't wait till we get to try everything.

Edited in= THE GAME DOES HAVE A SETTING for LOOK & AIM SPEED. I know you Socom guys are glad to hear that. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[viZZiOn]

since there are tattoos in the game, there should be piercings(not just ears either *******) any word on that?

[YoungGunna22]

iz any1 gonna answer these q's?????? :confused:

[VideoGameMaster]

hey.....how many silent guns are there on this game????..... think i had sum better questions earlier but as soon as i got on the PC i 4got so....how about how many silencer's are there?


also...any of u beta testers who said they've had 25 to life nd got socom 3 beta also..i wouldn't mind a small comparison between the two..becuz lately i heard ppl who have the S3 beta are saying it sux...specially the graphics....so uhh...maybe we'll be seein more 25-to-lifers than we think

[RedSector]

The MP-SD and the MP Mirco SD are silenced there are some pistols as well. BTW I enjoyed 25tl beta way more than im enjoying s3.

[VideoGameMaster]

k thanks...kinda sux thats theres not many SD's....specially fer the thugs....o well...but thanks fer the answers :thumbsup:

[RedSector]

Don't worry you're not missing out on much

[marker227]

Hey J-Hood and beta testers did this game resemble Socom at ALL? Like the 3thd person shooter game like on some maps are close and some you can hide and actually be sneaky on some parts. (trying to kill someone). I just hope it's not like FULL ACTION, where its like halo and crazy shooting goes on and you have to go so fast. lol.


Oh and do gangster's have "exploding pants"? It'd be a great way to get a bunch of your foes off you when you want to kill yourself and 5 other guys :D

Get me the T.N.T. boys..

[J-Hood]

Yes its EXACTLY like socom if you like that game then your gonna love this 1. Im not sure what "exploding pants"? means.

[VideoGameMaster]

Yes its EXACTLY like socom if you like that game then your gonna love this 1. Im not sure what "exploding pants"? means.

possibly suicide bomber

[viZZiOn]

probably, but i would think that better for a terrorist tactic in s3, ya know, terrorist is driving a jeep into a horde of seals and blows the c4 that he earlier planted on the gas tank.....boom kidd

[marker227]

cool dude, then I think I'll love the game.

[VideoGameMaster]

probably, but i would think that better for a terrorist tactic in s3, ya know, terrorist is driving a jeep into a horde of seals and blows the c4 that he earlier planted on the gas tank.....boom kidd


yeh but fer legal issues and politically correct reasons they are not aloud to put in suicide bombers

[viZZiOn]

they arent allowed to PUT it in the game, but it doesnt mean that it wont be able to be done

step 1: get in jeep
step 2: drive jeep
step 3: have sniper on your side blow up jeep when you're in a horde of seals
step 4: boom

[marker227]

yeh but fer legal issues and politically correct reasons they are not aloud to put in suicide bombers


Well they don't have to be called suicide bombers. Like in SOF2 I hold grenades and charge people and thats fun :).

But you can't commit suicide with a rocket in SOCOM which sucks. When you shoot a rocket to close to something it like goes sideways and doesn't explode :mad:


OMG I thought of something. This game needs mace for cops :-D

[VideoGameMaster]

yeh u cant hold grenades either on socom...trust me if they had suicide bo,bers i would always be one cuz i always run into a group...but U can drop grenades like right i front of u nd then dive on it..lure them in mwahahhahahaha :thumbsup:

[marker227]

I don't know if cops get actually frag's. I think they had He's but I'm not sure.

[viZZiOn]

.......boom

[marker227]

lol did you say that just to make a post :D

[RedSector]

Cops have frag grenades.

[viZZiOn]

yep.......................

[VideoGameMaster]

this probably a dumb question but..are there any mines or claymores...or things like them to slow down or just blow ppl up like that er no??....

[viZZiOn]

i dont know, it would be a nice touch but i doubt it

[J-Hood]

I doubt they will have them. Somone has been playing socom.

[VideoGameMaster]

I doubt they will have them. Somone has been playing socom.


ive been playin socom since it came out...i was just wonderin...cuz they should haveta pay a price fer just runnin nd gunnin without caution...guess thats what all the alarms nd stuff are for...like i heard the effects like sensored lights or car alarms is really off the hook

[mbones50]

yea run and gunnin but it go take some team work

[VideoGameMaster]

lazer sight.....which guns mainly nd can u switch it on/off ur weapons if u want?

[RedSector]

A bunch of MPs do and a bunch of pistols. Several cant be turned off, but some only come on when you zoom in.

[VideoGameMaster]

cool thanks sector

[mbones50]

nice zoom in on somebody head lol

[los93sol1]

I don't know if the game developers read these forums or not, but here it goes. I have been anticipating this game's release for a LONG time, and the only complaint I have against it is the decision to make online play respawn based instead of round based. That is the absolute worst decision possible for this game, and is reason enough for me to not buy the game. Granted just me not buying the game won't matter to the dev's or anyone else, but there seems to have been debate over this from the beginning. The simple fact is, FPS games are about strategy, not just learning where all the respawn places are and posting snipers to shoot people as soon as they respawn (think Halo!) I would be willing to wait a few extra months even for this to be changed over, PLEASE, I am begging, for the love of god, do not destroy a potentially legendary game with respawn!

Regards,
Los93soL

EDIT: Perhaps a better option would be to give the host an option to select round-based or respawn-based, that would be the best of both worlds, would make halo fans happy and socom fans!

Also, please include system link support for the Xbox version as there are several gamers that use Live and just as many that prefer Xlink. These things would make the game absolutely 100% perfect in my opinion.

[RedSector]

You ought to read the forums more in depth. It most definately can be round based. In the beta you could either make it non-respawn or respawn. The host decides. However, almost NO ONE in the beta played non-respawn. The respawn was actually much more enjoyable than otherwise.

Spawn camping is very hard to do well aginst good people. Usually when it was attempted on me they were slaughtered. It only worked on a rare occasion. I found non-respawn games simply campfests.

[QUOTE=los93sol1]I don't know if the game developers read these forums or not, but here it goes. I have been anticipating this game's release for a LONG time.[QUOTE]

If you were anticipating this game for a LONG time then you would of known by now that there is respawn stated in a lot of the gamer reviews and on many known sites; ebgames, gamespot, ign, gamespy. That there is infact respawn.

Please read the first "FAQ" before you come in here and post. So many people make blind statements and it's like spam on the forums.

LMAO! If you would have bothered to have read my post you would have seen that I know there is Respawn, and I was hoping for round based since there hasn't been much talk about it and apparently the only mention of round-based play is buried in these forums. So many people make blind statements and it's like spam on the forums. ;)

[marker227]

If you would have bothered to have read my post you would have seen that I know there is Respawn
How can anyone see that you know there is respawn if your begging to have it?
PLEASE, I am begging, for the love of god, do not destroy a potentially legendary game with respawn!

I know there wasn't much talk about it on the forums. BUT, YOU should have still read the reviews on the game. They talk about it on some sites.

I also did read your post that is why I only noticed the red part of it. You don't really need to highlight your posts in red to get your point across :p

This is going no where. Lets continue with this thread before this turns ugly and a mod closes it. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
