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

3dgamers have it too but theres a bit of a queue, hurryup gamershell!
 
Its on gamershell now 2hr and 20 minutes till finished OMG!
 
OMG cant wait to play!!!!! DOWNLOADING@!!!
 
I guess I'll let it download overnight. It'll be a few hours before I go to sleep and the download speeds should increase by then.
 
nah, I must complete FEAR first before I PLAY This demo,

only 3 levels left to the end. :D

no time to play these days...... Foooking working
 
just finished it, wow really short, i only felt like i was getting started and it ended, a bit meh tbh, peeps who didnt enjoy fear wont be persuaded by this i think...
 
Short demo, - felt like another fear level and none of the scares really worked well at all :\ kinda disapointed
 
It was quite short like the original FEAR demo. I think they should've chosen areas where they could show off their new AI tricks better. In that lobby area I saw some guys do some pretty tricky things and lob some grenades from cover (I just saw his arm whip the grenade and it hit me right in the face :()

I did LOVE the minigun though

edit: Those invis demon things freaked the shit out of me. I sprayed so much ammo there and kept checking my back in that area.

Same here. The music in that room was good. I killed the last one of them with my last shots. Runned around looking for more ammo, and got the ending. Oh well, I liked the demo.

Yeah, I wish we could've tried out the laser a little too. Oh well, I suppose they had to leave something for retail.

Just for shits I made a short video of me ripping up a room with the minigun.

Tried downloading it before but all of the mirrors took too damn long so I'll try it out tomorrow instead.
 
Is it as short as the original demo? That one was some 15 minutes, with me taking it slow and immersing myself, and some 7 minutes with me just running through to the end.
 
D/ling now...Can't wait, though I don't know if I want to spoil my apitite.
 
It was decent, not much new and quite short but I think the full expansion will be worth it.

The level design seems a lot more varied (the subway part of the level kind of remided me of max payne). Destructability seems increased and some more random stuff can be moved now (ie some geometry in the room with the big rocket wielding guy and some conisters now can be short like in sin:e). A lot of it seemed similiar but that isnt a bad thing and I agree the invisible deamons were the scariest part!

The whole thing ram smooth on my rig but that is to be expected, everything still looks good too but nothing is obviously improved.
 
I hope there's a lot more new stuff than they had in the demo. There's just the chaingun and one new enemy (that I call "ammo wasters", because they make you waste so much ammo). And there were only two major combat scenes, one with soldiers and the robot and one with ammo wasters. I'm not really counting the parts where you fight two or three guys in small rooms or the part where those two idiots were standing right next to an exploding barrel because those were really easy. The parts where you actually do fight were really good, just like the main game.
 
that demo is short as hell. the first fear demo was loads better
 
They'd better have made some optimisations to the engine. I don't want to play a slideshow again.

me too man!!! got screwed last time whn i playewd FEAR. had to reduce all setings to min to get an avg of 25 FPS. still it was lika slide show..lol..

you must have a really bad system because i play all high. optimizations wouldnt help much this engine isnt meant for gaming machines.
 
Nice! I'm looking forward to this. The first one creeped me out pretty good, and am looking forward to that again in this one. I forgot how good some of the music is in this game too - some of it really rocks.
 
Hmmm, the game is fubar for me. When I slow mo, black artifacts seem to appear...and when the first RL guy apears, he's a giant black...thing. Rockets streaming past me are black squares. Most rooms are solid black, can't see anything. Flashlight doesn't work. I can turn it on and poitn it at my feet, and nothing.

Might need to fiddle with my settings, but it auto-detected.. \=
 
Shiiit, I let the demo download overnight and there was a connection error at 78% >< D:

Now I gotta download it all over again ><. At least I get my uber high max speed of 64kB/s now.

honestly its not worth it. the demo is so damn short like 7mins at the most
 
I played it. As you said, really short. Nothing outstanding but it was nice ;)
 
The demo is pretty pants, and runs as badly as ever...
 
First time I played the demo, when Alma appeared with those freaky creatures in the end, I started going back, away from her and the demo ended.

On my second go, I went towards her and when I got close, she ran at me ape-style. That was the freakiest part of the demo IMHO.
 
I never got far, since I didn't want to mess with the weird problems. And yeah, the scare parts weren't working as well as I was hoping...so yeah, I'll probably buy the retail, but..that's about it.
 
I liked it but was a tad disappointed with the new type of enemy. Basically they felt like the cannon-fodder ghosts found in the original game only that they looked a bit more frightening and could withstand more damage. I thought they were supposed to be like the "invisible clones" you fought in the original at the office.
Otherwise I liked it, the minigun was very fun to use although it could've used a bit more beefy sound. Shotgun is still numero uno. ;)
 
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 a few games in which you liked the AI? HL2?
 
Far Cry AI wasn't bad. You know, you throw stone, tumbles down a rock face. "OMFG SHIT WTF CALL IN THE CHOPPER!"

Haha, made me laugh :D

It's also funny when something like that happens in a game - you kill someone (let's say a guard). Another guard discovers the body, alarms a few other guards, they briefly check the area and go back to their usual duties. Then you make a noise near the dead guard, for example shoot, one of the guards comes running again, over the dead body, looks around - "I gotta get more sleep"/"Must've been nothing".

Sounds like you didn't even play the demo. :|

I'm thinking he just decided to go on a rant about the game, and kinda went into over exageration mode. :p Even though I didn't get far into the game before the room was solid black, and I had no clue what I was doing....
