SOCOM 3 Weekly Update
Since the biggest news going on right now is obviously the patch, we've turned this week's update post into the 'update list' we mentioned yesterday. Happy patching!
SOCOM 3 1.2 Update
The SOCOM 3 1.2 Update (Patch) has been released. The SOCOM 3 update addresses a lot of the major issues that have been discovered since the release of SOCOM 3, but certainly not all issues. We wanted to address these major issues ASAP. Other issues will be addressed in a future update.
PLEASE NOTE! After downloading the update and saving it to your memory card you will receive an error message at boot up that the update may be corrupt. Please ignore this message and log into SOCOM 3 Online again.
You will automatically download the patch again and the error message will no longer be displayed.
The SOCOM 3 1.2 update addresses many issues including the following:
