F.E.A.R. Hints
How can I get to a new area from here?
1 of 12: Find the locked and blocked fence door and look at the room just beyond it.
2 of 12: NOTE: You can bash off the door's padlock, but you still can't open it.
3 of 12: The room you're seeing through the fencing is one that you were in before you found the trench and swam along it to get here.
4 of 12: You see that big lift shaft just past the fence door? You need to restore power to that lift and take it out of here.
5 of 12: Visually follow the power cable from the lift shaft's panel past the fencing and into your room.
6 of 12: It's connected to a blinking red electrical box on your side.
7 of 12: Find the interactive switch to the left of it and use it to restore power to the lift.
8 of 12: Now return to the room with the start of the trench.
9 of 12: NOTE: You can either swim back through the trench or climb the ladder near the electrical box and drop down at the broken catwalk.
10 of 12: As you round the corner that leads to the room with the lift, it'll arrive with two Replicas and a Heavy Armor on it.
11 of 12: Retreat for cover and use the old favorite SlowMo-shoot-and-then-hide routine to take them down.
