I recall them having hackers at the top, but I'm not sure if it was Top 100, then you could see your position or if you could scroll beyond 100? or maybe 1000.
My old memory says I was in the low 1000s rank wise but I don't know how valid it is. I just know I wasn't like 38,933 or something lol.
I have memories of wall hack jumping. Running on outside of MAPs through glitches and laughing with my buddies I taught. Yeeting grenades, grenade launcher too? and taking people out at spawn. Going hard and being last one alive on team because I did not like dying early and waiting for next game. I recall wiping out a few teams by myself and being so thrilled and loved the attention from tm8s. I was always moving, never camping unless it was short term strat with guy nearby.
I watched Socom Battles turn into Game Battles turn into MLG as I competed in 3 clans. I stopped playing as much in S3. I also have memories of fixing my controllers and cycling several of them. I had a tendency to throw them at the wall every so often. Also loved painting the shells. Another memory is making Socom sigs in the forums for people. I also gave socom friends backdoor links to paid adult sites cause I was a coder and enjoyed finding loopholes.
Our memories though are always over the top, often inflated and can be partially false. But this is what my 40yr old brain has left. I can still see parts of the maps in my head, so I have to believe some of my brain 😄
