F.E.A.R 3 Soul Survivor mode is a thing in a game
I can't say multiplayer in the F.E.A.R series has ever grabbed my attention, but it seems Monolith is going all out with F.E.A.R 3. The "F*cking Run" mode already has be intrigued, and now we've got the treacherous elimination mode, Soul Survivor. The game starts with one versus three, as a single player tries to corrupt an enemy squad and turn them into specters. Should he succeed, the match becomes two on two, and then three on one. Pretty simple stuff, though four players seems a little low for such a gametype. In any case, I'm glad to see Monolith trying to step away from the same old boring multiplayer and try to stand out more. That's multiplayer I can respect. Did you know?

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Um... isn't Day One Studios doing F3AR? I think Monolith doesn't have anything to do with this game, they're probably busy with the Batman FPS. FEAR and Multiplayer = UGH. This mode isn't unlike the ones in Riddick and AvP, though. It's definitely more intriguing than standard TDM, but we'll see how it plays in the final game. Ive gotta say, they seem to really be giving it one hell of a shot. I hope this multiplayer turns out to be really well made and people stick with it for more than a month before they go back to the COD games The narrator for this was hilarious. It's like he wanted to do the intense movie guy voice, but didn't want to fully commit to it. It seems to me that this is similar to the Versus mode in L4D. Except the survivors are not immune the the zombification. Fear 2's multiplayer wasn't that great and I really think this is a series that would do better by being entirely focused on delivering the largest and most intense single player possible, but this doesn't sound too bad. Not so much the mode itself, but I like the move to only four players. That is at least a number that I think could suit Fear. If they're going to put multiplayer in it's good they're at least making it something that fits their game rather than crowbarring in a large-scale CoD clone ala so many other shooters (fuck you BioShock 2). 4:00 PM on 04.09.2013 Seven more of the toughest games to run on PCA few months ago, we compiled a list of some of the toughest games to run on PC in honor of the release of Crysis 3.

2:00 PM on 06.24.2011 Review: F.E.A.R. 3The F.E.A.R. series has always been a polarizing one. It's earned itself a dedicated cult following but for every fan, there's at least one vocal detractor. Personally, I've always been an admirer of the series, well aware of...
