“Stability Patch” For SOCOM


The otherwise successful release of SOCOM: Confrontation was overshadowed with glitches and bugs when gamers flooded the servers to play online.

Sony put a server update to tackle the problems, but players are still experiencing problems such as random disconnections, shutdowns and the loss of user and clan information.
Sony have confirmed they are working on the issue and will be releasing a “stability patch” which should solve the problems.  Director of development, Seth Luisi, said on the SOCOM website that gamers can expect to see the patch released “in the next week or so.”

"In parallel to the server updates, we are also working on a new client patch which resolves some client side stability issues. These issues include getting booted to the XMB, large number of players getting disconnected from a specific game and other issues. We've been working on and testing this since the game launched and we should have a final version ready for release in the next week or so. It is hard to provide an exact date or timeframe as we need to make sure the patch is thoroughly tested and does not introduce any new issues."

We hope that helps with your SOCOM experience.
