FEAR Extraction Point Demo

Played it earlier today.

It takes about 10-15 minutes to play through. It's basically FEAR but you get to use a minigun

I wonder what the hell is going to do Monolith with the history. Reseting the franchise?
well... they oversaw this one, didn't make it entirely themselves, and they're working on a sequel independantly of vivendi right now (IE it might come out via a different publisher without the F.E.A.R. name which VU own).

story for this expansion seemed to follow on pretty linearly... so i don't think a reset is nescessary unless there's a really big fall out between Lith and VU over the sequel.
 
Those frickin'
red-eyed ghosts
were a pain to deal with, even with the new
minigun
. The demo ran fine on my rig (P4 2.8 with 2gig ram & 6800gt), but it didn't recognize my n52 speedpad right-got that to work after a bit of fussin' with it. And this demo is just like the demo for the original game-bits of different levels spliced together to make a big demo level. I think I spent about 15-20 minutes playing it, but I play cautiously.
 
same as the E3 demo for anyone interested.

it was okay i guess but nowhere near as good as the first F.E.A.R. demo.

level design wasn't up to the same standard either. the demo level feels like Condemned's subway station done by less talented people.
 
um WOW




.........that was ****ing underwhelming....


I mean, it really felt and played like an cheap expansion pack/fan-made map and not an extension of the original game....

I won't be checking this out....
 
I finally played the demo and it does feel like a cheap mod. Very underwhelming. However, that minigun is ****ing bitchin', maybe the best I've ever seen. Two seconds of sustained fire can deliver some epic asskicking.
 
Sorry for bumping old ass thread. but recently started playing Fear series.
Finished the main game. now installed extraction point
Funny that main game has widescreen support but not this one!!
Anyone no how to fix this.
Changing resolution though cfg file doesn't work even when it is set to read only.

Yeah let me just remember what I did in 2006 bro, to play on sli graphic cards with my 2 CRT monitors.

This is what you're looking for: https://flawlesswidescreen.org/ edit: never mind

Dude this ain't Necrobumping, this is some Jurassic Park shit!
 
i heard that, extraction point is better game than the base game.

Ban this necrophile
 
All I know is that the expansion packs suck
Not Extraction Point. Extraction Point was fantastic, but the Perseus Mandate freaking sucked. Extraction Point in many way is better than the base game

P.S. Ban all necrophiles

You know you could have just made a new thread? Right?
 
I started playing Extraction Point on my Series X a few months ago but didn't get far. I'll play through and finish it some time.

Gotta love a necrobump for something that is very googable.
I "Googabled" it but , that method didn't work.

Also funny you should say this, while the other guy couple of posts back is suggesting to create a whole new thread for this :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Its got higher highs and lower lows. (From memory)

Good thread bump, tried to play it a couple of years ago but the lack of res options and the frame drop make it unplayable so here's hoping the echo patch fixes it. (y)

No, you didn't google it. Because googling it gives you oodles amounts of various solutions. This isn't even an obscure question you are asking, which to me would be grounds for a new thread if it was.
 
Awesome!!

FEAR, perseus mandate, FEAR 2 project origin are a badass awesome games. Right now im playing Treptnang 2 and prism vacation Dead or alive xtreme
 
I'm completely okay necrobumping a thread about FEAR. Extraction Point was great, too. There's probably mods, if that's your jam, but the game only ever supported 4:3. Even the original game, though - which did get patched to work in widescreen - only works properly in 4:3. Widescreen fucks up the POV. It was from that weird transition period where widescreen was suddenly a thing.
