F.E.A.R. Extraction Point Demo

For those of you that have problems running the game... im sorry but its not the game coding...

i have a 3.4 dual core p4 Oc to 3.82, evga geforce 7950gt 512mb gfx card, and 2gb of corsair memory running at DDR2 800.... my demo ran high settings and i had 58fps average through out the game. some people have complained also about bf2142 as well but forr the most part it looks like that theese games will be running at a minimum of 1.5 gb

really short demo, like 10-15 minutes.

even so it reminded me of exactly what FEAR is for better or worse. a really nice combat engine with levels so repetitive you've seen the whole game 2 minutes in.

OMG: Warehouse? Office? I mean, that sounds so cool? How could I ever pass it up? How did the designers dream up this crazy idea for levels?

I'm gonna be all like:

Look, I'm in a warehouse, lol!

The F.E.A.R. Extraction Point demo is now available for download over at FileShack. The demo is about half a gig so happy downloading and grab a sandwich! The expansion pack demo allows you to check out the new Subway environment, fight against the new Shadow enemy, and blast everything in sight with the minigun weapon.

Subliminal advertising!

Anyway, I'll have to try this out later.

Shot demo but good action the new enemy in the blood room was freaky as hell.

On the negative note, i got serious bad FPS i dunno if its cause of bad coding but the demo also lacked thoose effects like shooting holes in walls etc.. yet i got such crap fps in the blood room.

My download just finished. I'll play through it and give my impressions. But know that I loved F.E.A.R.

Extraction Point is BOOOOOORRRRRRRRINNNNNGGGGGGGGG
... it is like doing it with my sister

short as hell but did still did in 10 minutes what doom 3 failed to do in the 3 weeks it took me to finish that boring piece of shit, sent chills up my spine on several occasions and creeped me out.

It was short, but it was okay. It wasn't the most impressive demo I've played. Kind of a more of the same type of deal, but it's a demo for an expansion. I wasn't really expecting a grand overhaul here.

Playability: I have a 3.2ghz P4 with a 9800 Pro and it ran fine until I got to the "blood room" as others have called it. I played with most settings on Medium (I should note). Whatever was going on in that room though totally crippled my system. It was playable, but it was pretty bad. They need to fix that.

Other than that one room, I liked it. Kinda nifty.

My impressions.

First off I will let you all know that I loved F.E.A.R., gun combat has not been matched since. The demo is for an expansion, so if you never played F.E.A.R. before you should instead try the original demo for F.E.A.R. here:

Anyways, the demo is pretty much more F.E.A.R. which is not a bad thing, unless you did not like F.E.A.R. For those who have never played F.E.A.R., you really should pick the game up as its one of the best FPS games of 2005. Gun combat, destruction, and AI has not been matched in any other FPS since its release. For the people who complain that the game takes place in all indoors areas, its because the AI works best in these types of situations, and when it comes down to gameplay thats why we play FPS games.

The demo was quiet a surprise for me since it had very different level design than the original, with the environments changing much more quickly, which is good for those who did not like the office levels, going from the subway to an office to an open construction area, which gives the game a much better pace. The AI is still amazing, although you really need to play on higher difficulties to really appreciate it.

The new minigun is one hell of a weapon, blowing the shit out of everything, and with the destructable environments it creates some very nice eye-candy. The new enemy is pretty creepy, since its very difficult to see them, just like the watchers, which I hope there are more of in this expansion.

As for the graphics, it appears that they didn't make all that many improvements, although they didn't really need to. But for those saying it runs slower than the original game, it must be rare since it ran perfectly fine for me with everything maxed, except for soft shadows off, and 2x aa and 4x af. My system is an Athlon XP 3200, 1GB Ram, and a Geforce 6800GT 256MB with the latest drivers. As for the blood room, I was running always over 30FPS in there.

Its more of the same, but thats expected from an expansion. So if you loved or enjoyed F.E.A.R. then its a great addition, but if you didn't this won't change your mind.

I have a AMD 64 4000+
2 gigs of ram
and a 7800

I was able to run with everything on max at 1024x768 with no hiccups

that being said, it wasn't anything special. It was F.E.A.R

If you played the first game you know what to expect out of this demo. I enjoyed it. Will probably pick the game up when it comes out


Is this a stand alone game or will it be an "expansion" deal? I lost my original copy when I moved out of my roomates house
