Just wondering for when i return to England whether or not to buy this game. I've heard about stuff like health bars and it's really put me off it. However is it still like Socom 1 where a good accurate head shot will kill you in one go or do you have to put a full clip in someone head before it starts to hurt them? And also FM said something about the hit boxes. Have you had any problems when it comes to you shooting someone and it not registering that you've hit them when it's blatantly obvious you did??


Just that if the online part isn't up to much i'll just stick to online for Socom 1 and then acquire Socom 2 'by other means' for it's single player game.

Yeah, im like that too. If you like hiding in places then you'll have loads of fun with socom 2 online, i dont know why but Zipper have changed some of the old maps, Abandoned is now pitch black, so black that you HAVE to use your Night-Vision goggles, same with rats nest.I cant remember if there is anymore old maps that are now pitch black.

Yeh Screech is in the [TK] clan and im in the clan too, his voice is very annoying and he always wants things done his way. Anyway moving on....i think Foxhunt, Crossroads or Vigilance would be my best, they are all big but just because i only mentioned three, doesn't mean the rest are rubbish, theres loads more other good ones but they're probably my best three. I just finished completing the 3rd Mission on Single Player, i've now unlocked a terrorist and Seal character, im happy!
I doubt the [TK] clan will go on for long, if it doesn't i'll just leave and probably stay Clanless.

That sounds cool, i always used to play Socom as a hide and seek game where i just waited for the enemy to cross my sights and then i'd go and sneak up behind them and fill them with lead. If there's more hiding places then i'll be happy

Not had a chance to play most of the new maps, some are a bit too dark to really take in unless you put the lights off.

Seems to be a lot quiker online though, more gun battles and places to hide, sneak up on folk etc.

I like it.

Been getting a bit more practice online in, take a while to get used to the new maps and weapons but it does look like a lot of fun.

I saw Screech earlier today, He's in a clan called [TK] i think. But yeh, i don't have a very good history with this fella, i saw him cheating, got him kicked from his clan (surely that's the right thing to do?) and his voice annoys the **** out of me. Anyways FM, why have you joined EP, that Flighter guy is soo annoying :(

Try to avoid a little fellow named Screech, he used to be in a clan with me and the leader chucked him out, he then wanted to get back at the leader so he made a clan up and told everyone from our previous clan to come to his clan, i only joined because all my SOCOM mate joined so im just hoping Screech wont disban the clan which is very likely.

Know what you mean about clans. I've been in 4 and each have disbanded within a week. So i never bothered with them anymore.

Yeh, i think your true there FM.
I have realised that there are only a few reliable clans out there in SOCOM 2, every clan i've gone to have either played rubbish or just argued so much that everyone leaves.One clan i could definately trust is the [SE] clan, they are very dedicated to SOCOM but i will never get into thier clan.Although im in a clan im still looking for a very reliable clan to say to me " Would you like to join our clan"?, unfortunately i will be looking for a long time.Oh, when did you become a notable, has the election finished?
