There are rumblings on the net of a new studio, possibly a shooter in the works:
"SOFs IAG is working with select partners to develop a SOFs exclusive, transmedia Tactical Shooter gaming franchise. This transmedia franchise is being developed through an industry-first partnership with U.S. and Allied Forces Special Mission Unit and Special Operations communities."
This could be big, keep an eye out, they say there will be more info to come soon.
SOF Studios has released a new video for H-Hour, showcasing the map SISMUS.
Yeah man Socom fans can't be a real sad bunch..... I loved Socom but no way it's the only game I play.
Garcia, I was in the top 1000 in S2 for 2 years. I do. But this isn't S2!

SOCOM and WARHAWK are in the top 10 best Multiplayer of all time. I'll play both for sure.
Once my PS4 meets HHour, it's never going to play another game after it just like my PS2 with SOCOM! Unless it's a sequel. :)
Hey guys this will also be out for the PC, if you want access to the Closed Beta, register and got the Community Forum "Donate Beta" thread
TRS Writes: "Almost anyone remotely interested in the SOCOM franchise knows two things for sure. The official franchise appears to have been shelved by Sony indefinitely, and David Sears had a successful KickStarter campaign recently that raised over $252,000 to break ground on “the spiritual successor to SOCOM I & II”."
i have 100% faith in david and SOF. if this game doesnt live up to my standards my gaming life will slowly fade away.
I remember the days of playing some awesome Crossroads matches.
I never played Socom 4 but Socom 1,2,3 were some of the best online experiences
deff. that was always the tie breaker for clan wars. fish hook was always our go-to map. and Socom4 wasnt a socom game, it was trash'ola.
static, if you loved SOCOM 1, 2, and 3, you should completely avoid SOCOM 4. It was such a departure from the SOCOM series that it will make you cry with all of its running and gunning and explosions and lame attempt at a dramatic story line.
I have really high hopes for this game! So far it looks great and definitely has a Socom look to it! Socom got me into online gaming. I have not found another game that had me as addicted to it as Socom 2.
TRS Writes: "Earlier this week, SOF Studios opened the floor to the community to choose their first “hot topic” for debate. An official poll has been provided by the studio, and several more will be coming weekly. The purpose of these polls is for any member of the site to have a chance to share very focused feedback with the studio on specific features."
i would kill for a socom2HD on the vita...
(gonna go enjoy some socom2 youtube videos -_-)
they doin weekly polls or something...
for what the socom community wants as features.
as much as id like to see it be just like socomII, we should hav full weapon customization... idk its a hard call. idk what i want anymore...
i didnt until it was too late, unfortunately. had some crap going on at the time and later drooled an wimpered over all of the pledge tiers... :'/
Something like a proper Socom2 remake for Vita/ps3/ps4 and H-Hour for PS4, etc. would make me happy.
We can only hope they get all the intricacies down pat and judging by the article they seem to be listening to the community so anyone interested should get involved.
oh indeed. hhour is my most anticipated game next gen. and yeah david and his team have been doing a great job listening to the community, hes really setout to make this a full blown socom game. every aspect, servers, rooms, the community/clans etc. even adding a never-b4-done-in-games anylitical system which sounds awesome.
I was thinking about how nice a proper Socom or Socom remake would be on my Vita recently.
There seem to be a lot of people who want this so let's make it happen!
for sure. i wanted to start a "kickstarter" to fund the money to buy the IP from sony and give it to David to remake socomIIHD, lol.
i dont want the vita to ruin the game at the same time (there has to be in-game mic support, not some vita Party mic bull crap)
gaming will never be the same untill im playing a proper socom game with my original COG clan... but any socomIIHD remake would do, for me.
Just an FYI, per the article the H-Hour KickStarter was successful and the game is currently being developed. The studio is asking for feedback from SOCOM fans in the form of weekly polls. This N4G article was meant to spread awareness for those gamers out there who were not aware of this project, or did not know that the polling has started.
The video that is embedded is just a great, quick promo that covers some aspects of the game that SOCOM fans would find interesting. I just wanted to make the old video didn't cause any confusion because it was originally released during the KickStarter.
they promised everything in that video for the past 10years. im not gonna be fooled again
it was them. if david sears had ANYTHING to do with Socom3 then i cannot support this. he put the wheels in motion for the death of the original socom.
everyone has promised all of this stuff in the video for a really long time. weather it being Socom Confrontation, the Cold Front map pack. or even Socom4. its all been the same crap.
i wont believe anything in this video until i see my Frostfire, Abandoned, and Crossroads brought back to original design.
and i have NO HOPE of them nailing the gameplay from 2001, its impossible, and it would have happened by now. they just cant do it. they created SOCOM 1 and SOCOM 2 on accident and it will never be replicated again.
@Avalanche
They can't bring back those maps in H-Hour because they would find themselves in court if they did.
This is not the recent zipper team, this is David Sears, he was a huge part of socom 1 and 2 and then left zipper. Sony owns the socom name so there making H hour, but this looks to be a true successor to the first two games. I for one will be purchasing this game day one on ps4, and will be spreading the word best I can. I was a huge socom fan, I hope this turns out to be great.
Hey RealSOCOM, are you thinking what I'm thinking?
