I've actually had FEAR crash (or otherwise look terrible) twice since I last played it (patch ~1.04). Even stranger is that now I can see visual tears in polygons (seeing through textures and whatnot). I even had a strange instance where I somehow fell through a buggy-looking wall to a bloody and untimely death.
I did "upgrade" my video card between then and now, from a 7800GT to a 7900GT, but the visuals look a lot worse than they used to.
Is this just me? Or did this release with 1.07 patch somehow bork the game?

Somebody please let me know what other modes the have. I'd be up for some new modes.

It was less dramatic, but equally unresponsive when I tried it a second time just in case.
So I tried it grab it off Sierra's ftp server, but it was like...christ...dial-up speeds...totally getting hammered. The interesting thing is, the total file size THERE was 1.89 gigs. I'm assuming the difference is due to rounding or whatever...but I'd like to know that for sure.
I'm giving the torrent another chance from scratch (here at home instead of at work), but I'm going to be fairly pissed off if it happens again. :|

It's really fast paced, and it exaggerates skill levels, so you'll see guys with 40:1 k/d ratio, and the next guy will be 20-15 or something. It's not like CS where skill levels are diminished and the game is nerfed to the point that players can't stand out on their own unless they've been playing for a year.
Every weapon is uber in the right hands, hell you can even get good scores running around using unarmed combat if you're good at tactical positioning, flanking and surprising groups of people. It's really unforgiving to noobs (no wonder they hate it so much). I'd hate it too if I tried emptying an SMG clip in the direction of an enemy, only for him to dodge every bullet and then run and up poon me in the face with a flying kick.
You can even control the armor and health pack runs in dm like in Q1.. the repop times are about the same, too.
