i still haven't got my laptop o.O
that's a shame. you're missing out
i just beat it today, and am dumbfounded. the plot is better than anything i've seen in a game, and there will most certainly be sequels
I read that the buildup was intense.. but the ending was just.. meh..
no idea tho..
i don't know who woulda said that, people on the boards i'm on think the ending was the best in a fps ever (not kidding) and i agree with them. it was an amazing ending
the only thing people are complaining about is that it left a lot of the game open ended, but it also answered a lot of questions and gave you a lot of information to figure things out on your own as well.
i don't want to give anything away, but i'll just say that F.E.A.R is just one of many games to come in the series (i imagine at least). the last 5 seconds in the epilogue make this evident
really? i read that the ending is somewhat open to individual interpretation..
source = pc gamer US
it is, but the individual perception is pretty much the same around fans. it basically ends on a cliffhanger, lets you imagine what happens next, but it also raps up most of the loose ends in the game. it does leave some open, which is what they're talkin about i'm guessing (you have to play the game to see what i'm talking about), but rather than take away from the game, i think it is a great way to set up for a sequel
I hear its all scripted AI... so if you play the game a 2nd time they will do the EXACT same things
it looks like an amazing game. my pc couldnt handle it at all tho. i am currently saving for a uber pwnz0r of a comp. just have to wait a few months
quite the contrary. the AI is said to be the best so far. it makes far cry look like pong.Quote:

their ACTIONS are scripted, as in, the small things that they can choose to do, such as bash through a window, or throw a grenade, but if they do it, when they do it is all random. like persay i walk into a room, and shoot the point man in the head. sometimes the squad will retreat, someone will throw a grenade and try to set up a flank. other times they'll just run at me to try and avenge their fallen leader. what i find fascinating is how they react with the environment. at times they'll push over shelves or desks to set up cover, or shoot at you over an object or while running away.
people who hate the game call it scripted because they only play it for a little time, in which they might think it is scripted because it is so damn good.. but it really is random, and quite intelligent what they do.
i don't want to sound like a fanboy so i'll stop.. just play it for yourself and see. you won't be disappointed
damn I love this game but..eh..it crashed and now every time I want to load my save game(s) it says: disconnected from server..which is odd if you play single player..hmm
lol
I've beaten the demo and I liked the style and how it was intense, but the grafix sucked. Maybe it was becoz it was a demo tho. Anywayz I'll probably get a copy of it. And yeah it's not totally scripted even if you load and go into the same room the dudes fight in an other way. Actions actually need be scripted...
Anywayz yeh it's gotta be a good game but I'm not positive that it's the game of the year but that's subjective, anywayz I'd tell you try Morrowind: Oblivion when it get out if you liek RPG's (but it's far more than an RPG), if you like only FPS maybe F.E.A.R is your game..
lol yea i did hear about the AI in fear being incredible.Quote:

its the graphics physics, and the destroyable scenery that makes me wanna get it.
i cant wait for my PC :'(
alma is... shiet...
I never knew she could kill you tho.. i learned the hard way .. when I got too close to her near the end..
busta i think your options were way low, because fear looks incredible
actually i take that back.. fear looks incredible even on low.. thats wierd that you didn't think so. it's being said that it has the best graphics and physics seen so far
ah man..

god when I got my sennheiser I started to shit my pants coz of sounds :P
Anyway..its gonna get so fucking scary ;) PREPARE
I'm gonna delete it and give it to some friends...Let those bitches suffer.
EDIT: On a second thought, I think I'll just ask my mom to hold me while I play...Bah maybe that won't work either...
BTW, if you didn't try this game you have no idea... I get scared easily by horror movies too, but damn, this game is......*bloody skull suddenly appears from nowhere on the screen in the middle of the room followed by a scream* - seriously...
haha.. wait till you get to the ELEVATOR scene...muahah ;)
you are going to die

OMFG THANKS!!!!
I was gonna play it just now, but decided to come here and read some stuff first...
Now I'm not gonna play it at all. Never. Thanks. Thanks a lot.
EDIT:
There should be like a horror level, like the difficulty one...
Something like:
Pussy
Not really scary...
Kinda scary
Scary shit
Really scary
Sleep with one eye open
Sleep with two eyes open
Who the fuck is gonna sleep after this shit <<< CURRENT ONE!!!!
Lol @ metal.
Well, i can handle horror movies easily, i find them funny, but i won't be saying that if i see Hostel lol.
But yeah, i'd probably play this, but i wouldn't buy it, since i'd get sick of changing my underwear all the time. :P
just borrow it from a friend.
this way you can play it, and also spend the money on new underwears :D
i got multiplayer and single player demo for this game. Its good game, u can slow time , but a bit scary wen they little girls jsut comes out out of no where.
