Will anyone else join me in a rant?
So yea, I picked up F.E.A.R. Files thinking I would actually finally play it, I sadly assumed the game was there with the addons, sadly it's only the addons.
I've only played extraction point so far, but wow! There's no story whatsoever, the game is basically run and shoot, i barely used slow motion and most of the weapons are quite dull. Your health readout is numbers rather than a bar, so it's not always easy to tell you're actually geting hurt.
I died a few times for stupid reasons, like why are there explosive panels all over the place? Oh and did I mention the auto weapon-switch which picks the next weapon rather than an appropriate one, i.e. not the ROCKET LAUNCHER!
To top that off the 360 port is DIABOLICAL, even though the graphics aren't much cop the framerate is generally bad and in a lot of places horrible. Probably the worst part is the fact that the auto-aim is actually some kind of satanic auto unaim, it for some reason drags the cursor in random directions. Oh and the rumble support is terrible, the only feedback you get is on firing weapons, grenades and being shot you feel nothing.
And I swear the graphics were better than that when I played the demo... hmph
Sorry had to vent somewhere
