F.E.A.R. 3 (stylized in the logo as F.3.A.R) is a first person-shooter developed by Day 1 Studios for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360 as a sequel to the game F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin and the third installment of the F.E.A.R. series. F.E.A.R. 3 includes features such as "co-op, an evolved cover system, and more scares", according to Day 1 Studios founder and president Denny Thorley. In the game, the players control either Point Man or Paxton Fettel, the protagonist and antagonist, respectively, from the first game, F.E.A.R.. The control system for the Point Man is the same as the previous two games, giving the player a command list typical of most first person shooter games (the ability to fire weapons, throw grenades, melee, activate/use items etc), as well as the ability to slow time. As Fettel, the player assists the Point Man by using telekinesis, stun, possession, a melee attack unique to Fettel and other abilities. In addition to these abilities, the player also has full access to the abilities of any character Fettel possesses. Both characters have the ability to access and control enemy technology (such as mech suits). Also, the game has both online and offline Co-Op play.Once you complete a level as Point Man, you can then replay that level in single player as Paxton Fettel.
Here we go, Helloween and me are doing a co-op LP! And what better game to play than FEAR 3! Helloween already LPed FEAR 1 while I did FEAR 2, so this is like a homecoming for the two of us.
We are doing a bit of a special thing here: Both Hell and me record our session from our respective point of views and then upload them separately!
So you can watch from the POV you prefer and won't miss a single bit of audio! Or, if you are crazy like that, you can watch both one after another or even AT THE SAME TIME!
The future is now friends! Welcome to FEAR 3!

Glad you two are doing this. It gives me some helloween while I'm trying to finish Alice: Madness returns so I can watch that LP as well.
Hey. Maybe this will actually POST this time instead of not, like the last four times I tried to post this.
As a concept, this is fucking rad. The same content from two POVs. I hope it leads to good shit. :^:
Really like the concept here, though I don't have time to watch yet.
I must watch this. I must.
Edit: Just watched both halves of the first set. This is everything I thought it could be and then some. Bravo, guys :^:
Interval 03 is going to be a thing of beauty.

Also you shouldn't need cover ever.
You can slide-kick through doors, however, so that's something.

Yeah Klyka's feed is the one I watched. Still have to watch Helloween's end. I think it's great how ahead of the game Klyka was in comparison. Though I do want to see how trippy his character looks when doing all that shit.
I shared this with Helloween via twitter but this LP is hysterical already, because of their nonchalant commentary about the things happening. Like seeing shadows run off around a corner. Suppose to freak us out, but to an Englishman and German it's just, "Oh, hrm, that certainly happened did it not!"
so who where you in the first game?

And while it's not as godly the original FEAR shotty, I grew quite attached to the one here. Took a man apart right proper.

He had less beard back then.
So, why exactly is he evil now? And who was you playing as in Fear 2?
I think I saw on Giant Bomb that apparently, some other team did Fear 2 and took it in a new direction. This is the old team attempting to reconcile their ideas with the ones brought forth by FEAR 2.

Monolith did the original FEAR. You played as pointman, a member of an elite team designated to deal with supernatural stuff.
Then their publisher took the name and had a different studio put out two expansions (Extraction Point and Perseus Mandate, playing as Pointman and Some New Guy, respectively). Monolith and lots of fans hated them. I liked them. More FEAR, new guns, lots of dead stuff. Horrible in terms of the effect they'd have on canon, though.
Monolith got the rights back, did FEAR 2*, disavowed the previous expansions having ever happened. Monolith gave up the rights and Day 1 is responsible for FEAR 3.
*In which you play a special forces operative named Becket, forget the first name. I don't think it's Carson. Carson Becket is the name of the doctor character from Stargate: Atlantis.
He's not really evil, he just doesn't have much choice about whether Fettel tags along. As I understand it, canon got fuzzy when FEAR 1's expansions rolled out from another studio, then got screwed even further when FEAR 2 came around, and again when the expansions were effectively voided. Like cooljammer says, FEAR 3 is the effort to untangle the mess, which arguably just makes it more confusing.
I try not to think too much about it.
Edit: Beaten, and clarified by Klash. But yeah, FEAR's continuity is a tad askew at this point.

Like Quake. 'Cept with more karate. I'm ok with this, I think.
The expansions aren't canon because Monolith didn't make them. They were done without their consent, and FEAR was their baby, so when they got the chance, they struck them from the record. It's actually kind of weird how the legal disputes have impacted the canon, it made people so confused that everyone thinks the FEAR canon is so much more complicated and deep than it is.

I don't know how this could be any better
Fear 1: You're pointman a badass ninja guy who fights supernatural stuff with bullet time. You found out Alma is a crazy bitch and you do your boss fight and shit got exploded.
Fear 2: You're pointman again and....you have sex with Alma because she's your mother and she needs your sperm to....reborn herself?
Fear 3: Now you have an evil ghost brother and it's up to you and your evil ghost brother to save your mom/lover?
....the fuck?
Also, this lets play is probably the best one as of yet from both of ya'll.
Watch my LP of it
I have a soft spot for Fear 1 that I kind of want to try Fear 2 and give it a fair, unbiased, chance. One of these days I'm gonna snag FEAR 2 from steam during one of its super cheap sales.

I still think it's better than Perseus mandate though.
Incidentally, Klyka not sharing the psychic links would just be unfair towards Helloween...
