F.E.A.R. - Level and Enemy Design
3,771In which I pretty much just use the shotgun.
F.E.A.R. gets a lot of worthy praise for its revolutionary A.I., awesome lighting and environmental destruction, but its level design goes severely underlooked. Here I talk about F.E.A.R.'s often great map design and why they are just as important as the A.I. itself in creating dynamic and interesting enemy encounters.
I highly recommend reading Jeff Orkin's "Three States and a Plan: The A.I. of F.E.A.R.": http://alumni.media.mit.edu/~jorkin/gdc2006_orkin_jeff_fear.pdf
