    FEAR 1.01 patch

    Didnt see another post for this - the first FEAR patch is out, got mine from gamershell;

    http://www.gamershell.com/news/25587.html

    I got a significant performance gain from applying this, now able to run max resolution with 2xFSAA and everything else maxed on SLI 6600GTs - could only do 1024x768 on the vanilla retail install.

    Got my copy of FEAR today, it says on the patch notes that there have been optimizations implemented, to what extent though it doesnt say. Its mainly multiplayer fixes on the release notes.

    Will be giving this one a go in a few hours time, install the patch before I load it for the first time. Demo ran really well on my system with most stuff set to high and I have noticed on the back of the box under the recommended it says for graphics 6600GT or 9800 Pro with 256 Mb onboard memory, only shortfall on recommended for me is processor speed as it states 3 Ghz or higher and mines 1.8 Ghz (have the Barton core XP 2500+ with the extra cache) so hopefully that little extra cache will help out.

    I have a AMD 4000+, Asus SLI-Delux, 2Gb, 2x6600GT and I got a significant performance boost, that was reflected in the fact I could go up to max resolution (max in-game res that is). Its well worth the download imo.
