SlantSix is hard at work finalizing the next patch for SOCOM: Confrontation. The developers have detailed the intricate clan ladder support they are prototyping.
Clans can battle for the ‘top of the ladder’ position through Clan Matches. Clans may sign up for 4, 8, and 16 player ladders. Matches occur within Daily, Evening and Weekend time brackets allowing clans to schedule the most convenient times. A clan may only have one active ladder challenge at a time, regardless of the time slot it is in, or the size of the clan. The scheduled battle will have to play out or be forfeited before another battle can be scheduled. You can challenge anyone that is in the bottom ten percent of the ladder directly above you. If a challenging clan wins, they take the position of the defending clan, dropping the defending clan down one spot. Ladder positions update after every series of matches, allowing clans to send new challenges.
Other ladder options…

this patch is toooo late. socom confrontation was a huge flop. they need to work on another project instead of wasting their time on this lost cause.

I started to really enjoy this game right before I traded it.

Let Guerrilla Games take over. They’ll show these guys how it’s done.

Yeah I am disappointed with SlantSix on this one. What a mess.
On a positive note the headset is great.

Nice patch.

The patch isnt too late…. Of course the game should have launched with this and without the bugs it had, I wont argue that, but the game plays fine right now and only has minor issues really. I play regularly with minor problems and have a great time playing.
There is no dropping and moving on right away as the game has plenty of life left. DLC is coming soon and more features. No other game plays like SOCOM plays gameplay wise and if you want that experience there is nowhere else to go. So saying drop the game is rubbish.

While MAG may very well be awesome and I am waiting for it, its still not SOCOM and its a fps.

sorry slant six you are one EPIC FAIL!!!!!!! The beta was horrible, the game launch was horrible. Sure things are fixed now but it’s about 6 months too later… give up and move on.

@Sneeches
Thats a good mentality to have…..Get real dude. If the game is fine now, why not support it? Thats foolish to just say move on if things only get better.
Also, I think its time for people to stop saying EPIC FAIL….
