one of the greatest FPS games of all time is 80% off on steam. (sequels too)

what is your excuse for not playing this gem?

Because I already did many many times

>>723520108 (OP)
I played it on release, thanks kid

I used to belong to a internet radio channel called Half-Life Radio, aired sometime around 2004->2006ish timeframe. I stopped helping out after I dropped out of high school, but they were absolutely obsessed with this game, talked about it all the time, fucking played it, it was shit. I made a cheat for the multiplayer when it was popular at the time.

god playing this on a CRT was something else.

im tempted in buying an OLED just for dark games like this

>that gun that is based of a saiga-12 that shoots giant fucking nails and sticks guys to walls.

only 1 of 3 games that have guns that do this, the other 2 being half life 2 and pain killer

>>723520108 (OP)
lack of controller support is a killer

>>723520917
You can just pirate the XBOX 360 ISO and run it on xenia with controller support. The PSTripple also has an ISO, if you want it to show you PlayStation controls, but the PS3 emulator is shit for most games that are already on PC (Like Fallout New Vegas).

if you do buy it. fixes alot of shit, expansions still have crashing issues though

>>723520108 (OP)
I own the retail version that doesn't need a DRM launcher.

>>723521037
I will be wiping this site off the Internet shortly… >:)

Sorry, I only play arcade-style FPS games (Doom, Serious Sam, etc.).
Anything that involves following a linear script full of set pieces while you get a little scare here and there, I leave to normalfags.

Mid series tbqh.

i already own the game, and i don't buy games on sale just because some faggot youtuber made a video about it

>webm from 2014

jesus anon time to move on

>>723521119
Snopes debunked this.

>>723520108 (OP)
Huh? Everyone has played FEAR.

>>723521102
But the retail version has SecuROM which is worse than any modern day launcher.

>>723521253
Yeah its like doom or oot, just assume everyone has already played it at this point.

>the dual pistols
>the shotgun

>>723521187
I have some gifs too.

>>723521338
In ISO format and any sort of DRM removed.

>>723520108 (OP)
I enjoyed 3, and since that was the first one I played on PS3, I couldn't really work backwards.
I tried them on PC, but it feels very wonky. Friend suggested a 4k mod, but not sure if it's worth it.
Anyone play them on steam and try out the 4k mod?

>>723521053
neat, thanks

>still having a CRT in 2005
What's the weather in Prague like at this time of year?

>>723520108 (OP)
But I'm currently playing it, I'm just starting Interval 3 of Perseus Mandate. The games are overrated though, there's almost no enemy variety, almost all of the enemies are reskinned soldiers, almost no supernatural encounters worth mentioning and fighting through offices and basements gets old after a while. Still pretty fun, but I was getting burned out during Extraction Point. Pic related is my new favorite weapon.

>>723521053
I tried all of the patches and workarounds I could, but my game kept freezing at the start of "The L". I had to delete my saves, lower my settings to Medium, start a new game and skip levels, meaning I lost all my upgrades, until reaching that one again so I could finally complete it and proceed with the game as normal.

I thought this game was about a spooky little girl, is that not the case?

>>723520108 (OP)
why would you buy this from steam

>>723520108 (OP)
you gain nothing from buying a 2005 non-valve game on steam and your money does not go to anyone who worked on it. just pirate the DRM-free version.

>>723522584
It's also about extremely satisfying shooting.

>>723520108 (OP)
I'm a little bitch that can't play scary games.

>>723522738
You gain the convenience of buying it on Steam, and 30% of the money goes towards maintaining the only game store that lets you own your games.

kind of wish there were more guns like a G-18

>>723520108 (OP)
Played it last October and the expansion's (2nd one sucks) and fear 2.

my biggest issue is the "hardest" difficulty is not hard anymore, and some areas feel sloggy.

still love the game overall though

I'm already playing it, got it on gog years ago for a buck. Forget how spongie those penetrator soldiers are.

>FPS
barf
It that even the one with the alma rape? Else do not bother me

>>723521119
Even nintendo which needs glowies to shut down shit couldn't do it

>>723520108 (OP)
>the multiplayer component
FEAR Combat was fun.

>>723520108 (OP)
I can't buy it from Russia

Did they ever fix the issue with some USB keyboards making the game freak out?

>>723523645
I regret not playing it more but 2005 was around the time when I started playing online PvP and games like CS: source and battlefield just happened to get my attention first.

how did slow mo work in MP ? like did 2 guys have to lock in and then activate at the same time ?

>>723523669
yea that was one of the first fixes. it was a .dll fix that fixed the FPS from tanking

>>723523857
Last I played it was like 7 years ago and the bug was still there. Had to get some community fix

>>723520917
Can't your fix that with Steam Input?

>>723522739
Slow motion actually makes the game less fun and too piss easy.
