F.E.A.R: Extraction Point demo tomorrow

[MiccyNarc]

worst demo ever!

so boring zZZzzZzZz I never understood what the fuss about this game was...

combat + weapons are crap

slow-mo is crap

Enemy AI is utter crap

art direction is crap

performance is complete shit compared to the graphical output

sound is crap

scares works the 1st time(they didn't even work in this demo because I've played the first one)...the rest are boring...

Name another game where you can jump 30 feet, kick it into slow mo 5 feet before you hit the ground, and as you're landing, kick a soldier off the side of a skyscraper. NAME ONE.

Slow mo rocks, the game rocks. If you don't like it, you're not playing it right. It's meant to be EXTREME. But if you play it like any other game, it won't be. It's all about thinking of the stuff you can do, and then doing it (like the situation above)

ya i finished the single player of extraction point, and boy was it great I LOVED IT. ending suxxx though

I haven't bought this yet, mainly because I got turned off when I read that the story is, pretty much, crap and doesn't give any answer to what happened in the original. True?

 

[giant384]

idk how to explain the story its just the way they tell it is hard to explain but its still really fun.

 

[Shamrock]

Wait, this demo came out? Why have I just heard about it? Haha.
Downloading!
Two months ago to this day?!

I cannot nor will I believe it.

Wait and its already out?! WTF!?

 

[Loke]

idk how to explain the story its just the way they tell it is hard to explain but its still really fun.

Is it anything like in the original? Is the storytelling the same, going around answering phone calls (although I've read that you don't do that in the expansion), or is it completely different?

 

[giant384]

its better then the original imo. more action, more scares, just better overall. there arent as many phones as there were in the first one, but your main objective is just getting out and if i explain anymore then it might ruin the game.

Just completed this....what a shit ending! and a bit boring in parts. Was anyone else really confused by the storyline? Major Spoilers below:










Fettel is back and alive....how?
Why does young Alma help you in some parts of the game while the older Alma want to kill you?
What was the point of Mapes cameo? Has is he still alive? (he still has the bullet in his chest for christ's sake! he was also voice by a different person and he was terrible....)

and did anyone else think it was such a shame to kill off Jin and Douglas Holiday espically since fighting alongside Douglas Holiday was one of the best parts of the game for me









end spoilers

I should get off my ass and make a full review. To put in a few sentences, though, it's like this - graphics are top-notch. Actual fights are top-notch, but there's still not enough of them, particularly towards the end. Level design is better than the original, but actually isn't that much different. The engine is well optimised. The storytelling is weaker than in the original, and the story is extremely poor.

I completely fail to understand where the story is going :|

 

[Solver]

It's not going anywhere unless they make a sequel. FEAR2 or whatever.

 

[Loke]

Bah, I was looking forward to this mostly because I wanted to see the story expand. I think I'll pass this one and wait for a true sequel.

seems like a just a huge war is about to start. even though your whole team is dead.
