Is it just me or is FEAR multiplayer lame/dead?

Seems that there are only a handful of populated servers with decent ping, and the game only supports 16 people and basically only supports deathmatch which is really fast and seems poorly done.

Anyone feel similar or different?

Gotcha. I thought you were talking about the MP in the retail FEAR.

The DM is a little to fast paced for my liking. I was always a fan of the multiplayer in games like the UT series.

I wish they had some sort of minimap compass like CS

hmm, i always though that the UT series was quite fast in comparison to other fps games.

I guess it depends on the maps. I felt UT maps had more space to move around. FEAR's maps tend to be close quarters, narrow halls, and relatively few open spaces compared to UT. Though, with UT2004, I would usually play onslaught and before that, CTF.

I played it for an hour then quit because I couldn't tell me I was shooting at an ally or enemy.

I loved the single player game and thought multiplay would be cool. But I found the multiplay to be really repetitive and boring. It was fun for a little while and the player graphics and effects weren't bad but it just seemed to be the same thing over and over and over again.

agreed, UT is the fastest IMO... it's just that you die from fewer shots in other games
