fear combat is totally different from F.E.A.R., u have to register at www.joinfear.com, ask 4 a free cd-key and download the game..
i had registered, but i haven't still got my cd-key:mad: .........do u need to download fear combat from the site to get the cd-key??

speed is not the important part. response time(ping) is.
with a low response time u can probably play on 56kbps
