So disappointed. The game crashes every 10 minutes, a lot of code errors, co-op mode is ridiculously hard even with a team of 3 people not to mention it lags like shit.
This could be such a great game, even if F2P, it seems like they rushed the whole thing.
2/10
(Spoilers) I think it's important to mention that the FEAR games are probabbly my favorite PC games of all time; still, I'm trying to write a decent review regardless of my positive/negative feelings towards the games.
This one is probabbly my least favorite of the three. Ask anyone and they'll tell you that FEAR 1 is a great game, despite it's "lack" of plot - I believe that FEAR 2 didn't do a great continuation from its previous game because they adaptated the story to a whole new different story. If instead they had decided to work on F3AR's plot, explaining who Pointman and Fettel were instead of adding new characters it'd probabbly wouldn't have ended up to, what most people call, a crash course. Maybe it's a harsh opinion, but as a F3AR fan I can't help but to feel that FEAR2 is useless when it comes to the trilogy plot. Also, I feel like the "hot" Alma model was just a way to call for attention, cheap move guys (I know you were trying to explain she was trying to make herself look pretty to Becket, but still...) and I dont' see why she had to get pregnant on the end of the game. She already had two grown-up sons, so why add a third one?
It's an ok game to play, I can't really complain, but when it comes to the plot I can't help but to feel frustrated whenever Sgt.Becket's teammate decided to run away and disappear from me, forcing me to "chase" him even though it was obvious that we'd never reach/save him. They should have made Alma's obcession with Becket a bit more obvious too, from the start, and maybe explain why she's after him, instead of just having the naked Alma model after you for no reason.
The memos were very annoying and the first time I played it I didn't read them because they were so many and so long, forcing me to stop playing and read a bunch of text.
The mutant high-schoolers were probably the scariest enemy you'll find on any FEAR game. The way they move, the sound, it's brilliant.
Also, one more thing: since on the first game you played as Pointman and on this one you played as Becket I don't understand why they decided not to give some lines to Becket to at least make most people understand that you're not playing as Pointman anymore - it was a bit weird to hear him talk on F3AR, but maybe that's F3AR's fault and not FEAR 2's responsability. I don't know. I would prefer id Becket had some lines,at least to communicate with his teammates.
Regardless of the flaws I mentioned, my overall opinion is that it's a great game you should definately play, good scares and a great FPS.
