Ahhh, my first video game I ever played by myself.. and first shooter game ever. What nostalgia. I just wish I was old enough to know wtf I was doing 😭🤣
Funny how we go all the trouble to blow up multiple weapons cache and take out enemies , when we can take the weapons caches for us to use it's free weapons lol
I have fleeting memories of going to my grandfathers house and playing this as a kid. I never got past the snow level would just play as much of it as I could over and over. It’s crazy how much comes rushing back as I watch this. Haven’t seen or heard anything to do with this game since then, feels so weird watching this. Something I love about video games is how much memories they hold. I find myself in these states where I just watch videos from all the games I played as a kid and there’s something about knowing that these universes still exist suspended in time that I take comfort in. Even all these years later and boomer (only name I instantly recognized when seeing this) and the squad still exist in their little universe and are still infiltrating ghost town over and over and doing their own thing somewhere
Great vid. Used to play this so much despite how hard it was (for me). I remember clawing my way through the Thailand level which felt like it went on for an eternity, the desert camp one with the helicopter. And this was all on the first difficulty lol.
So I've been watching a few Socom videos as of late and I have to say that your teammates can't shoot for shit in the later Socom games. In the first game your teammates drop the enemy in a heartbeat but in combined assault they need half a mag to down an enemy... none the less though I miss these games, oh and btw you are really good at Socom
Yea I have no interest in going beyond socom 2 because I think they just made the later games for online multiplayer only, and just slapped together a crappy campaign. Socom 2 was the best game they made for single player
@@matthewpalsky In fairness SOCOM 2 was the pinnacle of SOCOM's multiplayer as well. You could argue SOCOM 1 was the best, but SOCOM 2 just built upon the gameplay from its predecessor. Either way I remember the map design being terrible in SOCOM 3 and beyond as well as the bullet spray and fire rates etc... Just took a lot of the skill out of the game. Imagine having a Combined Assault style Co-Op for the SOCOM 2 campaign? Now that would be some fun.
1 and 2 are classics. Surprisingly I found Combined Assault to be my favorite. The weapon customization and controlling what each individual teammate does
I used to play this game a while ago, it was almost impossible for me to maintain stealth. Whether it's because of my trigger-happy team mates or the enemies have f***ing x-ray/thermal vision, I can't seem to silently drop the hostiles w/out being detected. The only saving grace about 1 and 2 was that my teammates were dead eyes when it came to dropping hostiles. Stealth was easier to maintain on 3 and CA, but my teammates were shooting blindfolded, lol!
I’m currently going through socom 1 and 2 right now. I’m wondering from watching your play throughs if the suppressors are really necessary. What’s your reasoning for not using them? Range?
My stupid teammate Boomer won't hold his fire even if you tell him to. If he gets too close to an enemy he'll shoot no matter what. So to get rid of him I have him deploy smoke in the opposite direction so that I can move in for a knife attack. I can't just shoot him in the head in the beginning because that would destroy my teamwork rating at the end.
NWG ahh okay because I saw you do that a lot in mission 11, but you’re badass dude you really know your shit. Couldn’t have finished mission 12 without your video so thanks.
Thats really interesting^^ Can you elaborate a bit on how exactly the Stealth and Teamwork rating works ? I sometimes completed missions with loud weapons and I somehow had a pretty high Stealth rating. Ive read somewhere that if you kill an enemy immediately after he discovers you counts as "stealthy" ? But im not 100 % sure.
The stealth in socom 1 has everything to do with how many knife kills you make. In the earlier missions 1 or 2 knife kills is enough for 100% stealth, but it seems like you need more than that in the later missions. Teamwork has everything to do with how many kills you make compared to your teammates. If you make too many kills or if you sit back and let your team make too many kills it will hurt your teamwork. There has to be a good balance. I know because I was playing the game on the pcsx2 where I can use savestates. I would complete a section and then abort the mission just to check on my teamwork rating and that is how I found out. Then I could go back to where I saved. Socom 2 is similar, but along with knife kills, headshots with a silenced weapon also count towards your stealth, but the max stealth I've ever gotten in Socom 2 is like 97% for some reason. Teamwork in Socom 2 is the same, except if you capture 1 or more enemies it almost guarentees 100% teamwork. You'll notice that I capture at least one enemy in every mission in Socom 2.

Totally, this game was the best experience I had during my childhood!!!
One of my favourite missions on socom 1

Man, it was so good.
We didn't know what we had but we knew it was so gotdamn fantastic.
I love at 14:00 that you threw a grenade at the outhouse 👍
I used to place C4 on it for shits and giggles
@@kasper7574 😂
Dude super well done. Noticed the canon choice of weaponry and cinematic tactics. Really hitting me with nostalgia
Anyone use to think that carry body icon was a dinasour or something!?
also shooting light bulbs
BRO LITERALLY. that was my exact thought back then😂
Yes hahahaha
Man, this is so nostalgic!

NWG Same here. The later games felt more casual especially the 4th one.

You forgot to throw the grenade in the outhouses
Certain ppl remember golden eye, my generation had this
I remember both vividly.
Another person who did this game all the way to Admiral!!! So many countless hours it took
Crazy nostalgia as a kid playing this wow lmao
me too!!
I use to play this game for hours on end.
@jacobosborn8584 Speak for yourself about your crack addiction, I'm a gamer that's my only addiction 🤨.
I miss this game
me too
ditto
Same
Dejavu!!!
Love the soundtrack on this mission
Still a better game than Ghost Recon Breakpoint
When did that game come out?
Breakpoint is a joke. Enemies are trash. This is pure intense adrenaline. They don't make them like this anymore.
Most games are
Yo NWG I like all socom videos you should do socom 3 :)
It is nice that you can knife, melee attack enemy and take the body. Like hitman & Splinter cell mix.
When I was a kid, I don't think that I ever did these missions right
When you kill one IB on the toilette you get an special voice line :D
i love this game
Please remaster these games. By far the best besides duty
Jesus Christ. Brings me back
😊😊

He likes the sound of unsupressed weapons. It also doesn't have an affect on the stealth rating. Just a few knife kills and you're locked in at 100%
19:03 did one of the SEALs almost get blown up?😁
What’s the point of having your team mates deploy smoke? Is it so they don’t attack anyone?
My stupid teammate Boomer won't hold his fire even if you tell him to. If he gets too close to an enemy he'll shoot no matter what. So to get rid of him I have him deploy smoke in the opposite direction so that I can move in for a knife attack.

Good video
I wanna see you play socom 3
TANKS BRO THANKS
Mentor you play SOCOM, Worddd!
I still can't get my Bravo team to cover Dredge. I am currently playing this on PS2. Although it looks shit on modern TV.
Does anybody want to play this game online
13:04
