Graphics are really good takes a mega computer to run it. so far this game has had *HmS*JustMe jump 5 times (scare factor or suprise of bg or bad guy or gorry graphics) me 7.

game flows well and it seems when you reach a check point in single player game you get hit with a psychic message of doom or continuance it is really spookie.

I have played the Multiplayer and it is ok. capther the flag and TDM and DM. But no coop and that is what I like best. it is a fast DM engine, but you have to pick up additional weopones when the game offers them. I am used to Novologic games and the controls, it it is taking me time to get used to it.

Yea.. It is a good game, and it almost a must you play it when it´s dark outside, Im usually not the afraid one, but some parts of the game got me jumping too... I only tried the single part of it and can say i like it alot, but it aint JO ;-)... I never tried the multiplayer so i cant say much about it, but i trust your judgment Ole Fart...
And the graphics looks good too...

Im not a good rewiever, so i just can tell what i like about a game, so bare with me...

Its a very well done game - and the A.I. is outstanding - bots seems to KNOW what you will do - but in a very believable way (like flanking you)

The story is great - and the ending is perfect - sets it up for a sequel.

Since I was using a borrowed copy I never go to test the online aspect - but the single player is great.

just played F.E.A.R the game is excellent , scary sometimes. Only think that isnt good on it ,that you need a monster pc for it. I played everthing on low and 640 * 480 resolution. But i still enjoyed the game.



Edit : Multiplayer is not very good.

I agree with all of you especially fox, I got so far in the single player part, Played some DM (did not enjoy the on line play that much but then you all know I suck at DM or TDM)

Same here, got tha Game when i bought my new computer, i was like a b**dy maniac playing and playing until i finished the game.. doh! very graphiclly intense and it demands lots and lots of your computer to run well on higher resolutions, i played the game with all settings on High and had an avarage FPS of about 55- 60 but the game is very well made and it really grabs u by the neck and slams you into the monitor in lack of better superlatives to describe this game.

but as the above stated the multiplayer part has much more to desire, it just dont feel to be finished somehow.. but okey if u like running aound hammering your opponents like you do in eg Quake then that mode might be for you.

With all on high in settings the below gave me a FPS of about 55-60
MoBo: ID MSI 945P/G NEO 2
Cpu: Intel P4 dual core at 3400mhz
Ram: 2048 MB (DDR2-667 DDR2 SDRAM)
Graphic: NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT (512 MB)

but i have also tried the game on my former machine and with normal settings it performed well and smoothly
no FPS though, ( faint memory of something like down to 25 when there were massive explosions and lots of particles to generate)

MoBo: ID MSI 945P/G NEO 2
Cpu: Intel P4 2400mhz
Ram: 768 MB (DDR-400, pc3200)
Graphic: NVIDIA GeForce 6600 (256 MB)

so it should run well on a Non monster machine too.

just my two pence worth :)

Expansion Pak (Extraction Zone) is really just a continuation - nothing really new - ok though.
