F.E.A.R. Hints
Override security lockdown
1 of 15: The open door to the left of the elevator can't get you anywhere interesting yet, so go on down to the other end of the area and into a hallway lined with small offices.
2 of 15: TIPS: One of those small offices has a prox grenade on a desk. Just across the hall from it is a small office with a doorway in the back that leads to a lab area where you can get a medkit and a health booster from the tables.
3 of 15: After you go through the next automatic shoosh-door, find a couple of remote bombs on a table in one corner, then quicksave before you go through the next door.
4 of 15: Through an unbreakable window, you'll see several Replicas running along. They're going to be entering the room up ahead and to the left any second now.
5 of 15: What you can do is run ahead, toss a couple of remote bombs into the room or on the floor near its exit, then detonate the bombs when Replicas are near them.
6 of 15: Then use standard tactics to take down the rest, retreating back to the nearby small lab if necessary.
7 of 15: When they're all dead, search the large room they were in to find several medkits, then go through the exit in the back of the room to get to a similar room with two more Replicas in it. (They're easy SlowMo take-downs.)
8 of 15: After that, move on down the hallways, passing the unopenable and unbreakable glass doors until you get to another automatic door that opens for you.
9 of 15: When you go through it, immediately look to the left since two Replicas will be coming up the stairs over in the corner. More easy SlowMo take-downs!
10 of 15: Search the room very carefully since it has lots of great supplies, including a MOD-3 multi-rocket launcher behind a fence with a large yellow CAUTION sign on it. While this is a really hot weapon, it's best not to do a permanent switch-out for it -- instead, take it along for the next couple of battles, then return and get your regular weapon back.
11 of 15: Go down the stairs that the Replicas were coming up and walk along the concrete tunnels to reach a room guarded by a couple more easy-to-kill Replicas.
12 of 15: Search the room carefully for lots of good supplies, then head out the automatic door.
13 of 15: When you approach the drop-off to the right, look into the room past it to see several Replicas on an upper walkway.
14 of 15: After you get them all, drop down to the lower floor and move on down the hall to find another automatic door you can get through.
15 of 15: It leads to the control room where you can use the blue "Activate" panel to achieve this objective and get back to the Find and neutralize Paxton Fettel one.
