Perhaps most interestingly, Warner Bros. has enlisted the help of legendary horror director John Carpenter ( Halloween, They Live ) and Steve Niles ( 30 Days of Night ) to oversee the horror aspects. In addition to the return of Alma, F.E.A.R. 3 will introduce “divergent co-op,” where each character has distinctly different abilities. These abilities don’t just affect the enemy in front of you, either, apparently. Each co-op partner will have abilities that affect their co-op partner. The co-op characters available are Point Man, “a genetically enhanced super soldier originally introduced in F.E.A.R. ,” and his brother, Paxton Fettel, a dead man with telekenetic powers. F.E.A.R. 3
