OMG! This game will PWN BIGTIME when released!

Shocked

I played it last night (Single player demo) and it is truly AWESOME!

In case you do not know what I am talking about:
http://www.r3dbaron.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=173&Itemid=2

There you will find trailers and a link to the demo and the website.

It plays so much like RTCW. I set the controls and right away it played really well. Very nice! Check it out.

This is one game I will HAVE to get when it's released!

Hm, it looks ugly on my low spec machine...
Anyway, I've seen a mp video, and there you got these martial art shit moves, that seem to insta kill your opponent.
And I didn't like the weapons...wait, I wrote something on xfire about the demo:

Hm, beside the fact that the hardware requirements eat my computer, the demo didn't convince me at all.

For one, I doubt they can come up with enough original ideas, about how the little girl shocks you. So I guess that this will wear old soon.

And I totally didn't like the leveldesign, since it didn't feel like the whole level was connected, but was build up from little levels (the rooms) itself. Hm, hope this makes sense.

In addition, I totally didn't like the weapons. Not only are they butt-ugly, but they don't transport that feeling of, uhm, devastating power.

Last, but not least, I hate these mid-level bosses, that are more heavily armoured. Doesn't really fit in the realistic setting of the game.

On the other hand, a buddy of mine told me how amazingly uber the slow-mo mode is. I can't judge on that, since I don't have a dx9 card Sad

Orkrist, I think it is due to the specs...

The slow-motion is really nice. Bit like Max Payne and the weapons DO seem to have destructive powers. Check out the weapons here:

I was blown away by the gameplay and graphics tbh. Check out the trailers:

http://www.vugames.com/video_player.do?mediaId=14548

http://www.vugames.com/video_viewer.do?mediaId=15394

If the MP part is any decent then I would like to try that clanbased!

What joke?

Unlike many other games there is no alternate fire crap so I can set ALMOST exactly the same controls for this game.
Then it plays just like rtcw. With leaning Smile

Didn't like:
-Doom3 (Too Dark)
-HL 2 (Got Nauseous)
-Max Payne (too much inbetween crap like the other dimension stuff)

F.E.A.R. I liked because:
-Not too dark!
-Looks AMAZING and doesn't make me feels nauseous.
-Has nice slow-mo and, so far, little sidetracking from plain shooting.

How can you be bored with this game after 5 mins unless you finished the demo in that time? Smile


Thanks for footage Orkrist. Ill check it out.

I was looking into this game a while ago when I heard about it and put it down for further investigation, no idea there was a demo out though.

Thanks for the heads up ..... taking a look Smile

Like Orkrist, I have a pretty low spec PC by today's standards, so I did'nt bother downloading the demo Shocked

Maybe when I win the lottery and I can afford to buy the latest pwnage PC will I be able to enjoy games as they're meant to be played Very Happy

As you can see in my comments about the game, it's not only about the game's visuals...but again, it seems that the uber graphics of this game help to overlook the faults the game has gameplaywise (at least in my book).

Oh, and judging from the mp vids, the game is rather cs like...jumping around corners, single headshot kills. Besides, having a rocketlauncher and a railgun in a slow game like this is not the smartest thing, imo.

That't the only thing I would like to see changed: the LOVELY teambased features RTCW has.
