View Full Version : F.E.A.R. Combat - Free Multiplayer
I saw this posted a little while ago "over there" and wondered if anyone here had tried it out and if it would be any good as a BD-Multiplayer game?

Just a thought - I know nothing about the game but it's certainly the right price :p which should mean more people able to play :)
Downloading now, can't pass up a freebie.
are you finding the download verrrrry slow? I'm not surprised given that it's free but just thought I'd check

tis very slow here :angry:
I decided to search isohunt for the filename instead
fearcombat_en_107.exe
once it gets going it should be a fair bit faster than the direct route

yep - can mail it to you though it would probably be quicker to just go here (http://isohunt.com/torrents?ihq=fearcombat)
edit - or here http://isohunt.com/download/13282697/fearcombat
or add me to msn if you like - button over there <----
Very slow here too, trying the torrent now.
mine is motoring along nicely now - should get quicker as night goes on and be there in the morning :)

from what I've heard then the MP is dire... not even rubbish, it jumped straight from 'meh' to 'dire'...
Torrent is at 98% this morning. Will have a blast this evening some time.

Mine's only at 50% this morning - Internet took a massive speed cut when "the boy" returned home and continued on his mission to download the whole internet :undecided:
Hopefully mine will finish today - if not then it'll certainly be ready for tomorrow
If dymetrie has heard right it may be the biggest load of rubbish ever :embarassed:

:( :p
I'm guessing you're on a 2mbps connection then as mine was nearly 5hours once the initial boost had settled - rubbishy 1mbps Wanadoo rubbish, can't wait for the 12 months to be up
edit: arrgghhh and I paused it so it wouldn't interfere with F@H getting a nice new beta WU and when I resumed it reckoned it was complete - doh! Oh well another 5hours then I guess :p

You assume correctly :D
Stan :)
Had a quick blast and it seemed ok, nothing special but it's definately playable.

Grabbing this now. Thanks. :)
Strangely it seems to have leveled out at 460ish kbs which is odd cause we only have a 2Mbps line :shocked:

There must be a few of us downloading it - my rate has dropped fromm 220 to <160 Kb/s.
I shudder to think what sort of hammering Beansprout's bandwidth is taking :shocked:
Stan :)
lol think its me :embarassed:
only 5 minutes and you can have all the bandwidth back :p
*edit*
finished ;)

oh well - it was just an idea :p

Nope had 460kbs for the full download, all done in just over an hour.
Not bad for a 2Mbps line :D
After all of that I got a corrupted file and it won't install :(
download accelerator or virus checker maybe?
mine will be done in 16mins - will see if I have the same
i used IDM (Internet download manager) and mine was fine
all looks fine to me - it may not technically be great but if it's just for a giggle I think it'll be ok
I will probably still be downloading CS:S for $19.99 though as I'm sure that's a lot better for serioius gaming
I just had a few deathmatches with some of the folk from the other side - was pretty fun but got tedious sometimes when playing against people who just wanted to camp out
I think it depends a lot on who you're playing and on what map - also plenty of game modes available
Just for info :)
I'm actually beginning to really like this, keep sneaking back for the odd game. Been a long while since i've enjoyed some old fashioned DM.

yep same here - popped on this morning just to look round a few different maps on servers with no other users, sooner or later someone would pop on and we'd have a little skirmish then I'd nip off somewhere else :D
My name on there is rich99million so if anyone sees me come shoot me between the eyes and run away lol'ing :p
Tried downloading this agin got the same error message and It won't install :(
Oh well not for me I guess.

My torrent is almost finished. If it installs OK I'll shove the file onto a webserver tomorrow and you can try to grab it from there.

Thankyou kind sir. *doffs cap*
My torrent downloaded fine so I'll whack the file onto a webserver when I get to the office (boooooooo!!!) tomorrow.

and if Jhader still can't seem to download it I'm happy to fling it on a DVD his way via snail mail (same goes for anyone else who wants some)
I'm up for some organised rumbles this week whenever's good for others - Wednesday evening is out of course as that's already been set aside for CS:Source - any other evening is fine for me though
I guess we can always just hop on a free server unless anyone wants to host a private server for it
Cheers for the link beany, I'll leave it downloading overnight :) I need some sleep now.
Annoyingly i seem to have developed a problem with this game. Random application errors for no apparent reason. This is a very fresh build of windows and everything else works perfectly so im not sure exactly what's going on :(.
The download is available at http://thor.pauleagles.com/fearcombat_en_107.exe
Thanks. Downloading now. Hopefully this version will work :)
OK tried with your version Burble. Got the same thing. Starts install get to: FEARA_7.ARCH00 then comes up with the following message
CRC error: The file FEARA_7.ARCH00 doesn't match the file in the setup's .cab file. The medium from which you are running the setup may be corrupted.
This is the same message I was getting with the other versions I tried.
Would this have anything to do with me choosing a different install directory as I have a seperate drive for games?
Any ideas greatly appreciated :)
EDIT: Just tried installing without changing directory and got the same error :(
Very odd! I also installed it to a different directory and that didn't give me any problems.
Just installed it, and I also installed it on a different drive to windows and a different folder than it specified with np. :huh:
Had ago on the day it was out and thought that it was rather pants.
