Zipper Interactive- What's Going On Now?
We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season! As we begin 2007, we wanted to give you an update as to what is currently happening at Zipper.
Since the launch of SOCOM U.S. Navy SEALs: Combined Assault and SOCOM U.S. Navy SEALs: Fireteam Bravo 2, I've been asked many times, "What is Zipper working on now?" and "Where is Map Pack 2?" Let's cover some of these as well as some other topics.
What is Zipper working on now? Currently, we are working on a SOCOM 3 and SOCOM: CA patches for North America, SOCOM 3 patch for Europe, Fireteam Bravo 2 and Combined Assault for Europe, Fireteam Bravo 2 for Korea, as well as downloadable content which will be available in Map Pack 2 and future Map Packs.
* North America Patches for SOCOM 3 and SOCOM CA: These patches will remedy issues identified internally as well as from Community posts. When more information becomes available, I will be sure to update you. Like last time, I have a change list that covers what has been addressed.
* SOCOM 3 Patch for Europe: This is currently in test and should be available soon. I'll try and get a change list together for this patch as well.
* Map Pack 2: Yes, it is still being worked on as well as tested. Unfortunately, the Breach Gametype has been removed from the Desert Glory map.
What else is happening? We have been listening to your concerns and are working on ways to deal with those people who find it necessary to exploit the Ranking System. Due to continuous abuse of the ranking system, we are now enforcing the following penalties to all account-holders that are observed exploiting the ranking system:
1st offense: Clear stats plus a 1 week ban
2nd offense: Clear stats plus a 2 week ban
3rd offense: Clear stats plus a permanent ban
Abuse of the ranking system will not be tolerated. For further details, see the Online User Agreement in-game or at www.us.playstation.com/useragreements
And finally, rumors. I get questions all of the time asking me to confirm or deny a rumor that someone has posted. Keep in mind, that if something isn't officially announced by SCEA, then it is just a rumor.
See you in game!
