F.E.A.R

<< < (3/7) > >>

Spike:
I've lost count of how many times I've sat there and yelled out profanities when running away from an enemy squad, or a skeleton that rises up out of a hallway half filled with blood that grabs you.  I'd liken my F.E.A.R. experience to Red vs. Blue.  "SON OF A BITCH!"  Pardon my language.

Switchblade:
I think my favourite touch has to be the AI - they fucking COMMUNICATE, man!

they'll yell stuff like "man Down" or "He's trying to flank" or "I need reinforcements!". One time, I even heard a sergeant order his lone comrade (I'd wiped out the rest of the squad) to try and flank me, to which the soldier responded with a "fuck you!" and stayed where he was because it was safer.

That's quality. whoever programmed the AI in F.E.A.R was a genius.

streever:
jenno--have you had a dual core before? I am using one now, and imagine my surprise, most games stutter unless you set the affinity :)

apologies if you've heard this before--it really surprised me & made me waste 3 hours trying to "fix" CS:Source--but it turns out many, many games need to be set to one or the other CPU in the dual-core (press CTRL ALT DEL and choose "Affinity" when right click on the process)

Again, apologies if you've heard it before, you'll probably set the affinity anyway so you can take full advantage of dual core goodness, but if you'll like me, you'll get mad & waste hours ^_^

Shit, that's good. I appreciate good programming, it also proves that game programmers are sexually deprived, and have nothing better to do with their time, either that or they are really good at their job, although i tend to think its the first one.

I have to admit, although i am a computer nerd, i have never played an FPS, i tend to stick to RPG's etc. Although, i am going to have to learn real quick, as i am attending a LAN on Wednesday night, and I'm going to be one of two girls who have ever gamed before. So i don't want to get pwned completely....

Switchblade:
Get a copy of UT2004", and run a 1v1 instant action deathmatch with no time limit or frag limit. Set the bot skill to "Godlike" and drop yourself in there.

Don't stop playing until you've scored three consecutive frags without getting fragged yourself, or until you've scored 100 frags, or until your eyes bleed. whichever happens first.

Do this twice a day until the party comes around.

Watch as you pwn everybody at the party.

*reason this works*

Bots have pin-point accurate aim. The difficulty setting in UT2004 determines how likely they are to deliberately miss. At "godlike", their probability of hitting is something like 95%, and they always know where you are. If you can frag a perfectly healthy godlike bot, then you're beating THAT.

mere mortals will stand no chance.
