PSN : Sign of life? SOCOM4 Leaderboard Active

I am not sure what exactly going on here but for some reason, some people can access the games online. Playtesting perhaps. Who knows. SOCOM's online leaderboard for May is a little busy during the past few days even if the PSN is still offline.Could this be dev accounts? Playtesters? Or a sign that the PSN will go back on soon? Maybe a server glitch or whatever. Thanks to someone who started a thread about this on SOCOM 4 forums that got me interested - bayport kudos! :)

Here is a guide that I just made on how to access the SOCOM4 leaderboard without logging in:

SOCOM 4 Leaderboard for May

You can check the leaderboard without logging in by simply copy and pasting this URL in to your web browser and replace the insert_name_here to any of those names listed on that photo above or even yours (if you were able to log in before PSN was taken offline).

URL:
http://www.socom.com/en-us/SOCOM4/Leaderboards?handle=insert_name_here

Once you are looking at someone's stats, look for leaderboards in between co-op and compare stats tab.

The tab

So, you now have an access to the leaderboards without having to log-in. You can change the time range to see who is playing during this week or this month. You can check their stats too and look at when they started playing. I hope this helps :)

"We have some internal tools available to us this week. Since I'm out, though, I can't elaborate"


He is currently on vacation. When he gets back, I think more questions will be answered :)
