F.E.A.R. Hints
Part 1 ("Sayonara, Sucker")
1 of 9: As the lift ascends, you'll hear Replica radio chatter nearby.
2 of 9: Be ready to start SlowMo-shooting them the moment the lift stops and its doors open.
3 of 9: After they're all down, look around for supplies, including in the room that's up the stairs.
4 of 9: When you come to an unopenable and unbreakable glass door, look to the right and back a short way to find an automatic door that'll slide open and closed for you. (How nice!)
5 of 9: Search the tables in the lab for a prox grenade and medkit, then leave the lab and go up the stairs to find Norton Mapes acting like a total idiot.
6 of 9: When he realizes who you are, he'll whine you up a new objective.
7 of 9: After the security lockdown is overridden, leave the control room and go through the nearby doorway that was blocked by shatterproof security glass earlier.
8 of 9: Head up the stairs on the right to return to the elevator room.
9 of 9: You'll arrive just in time to witness Mapes validate the current mission's odd name and leave you behind. If only the game would ever let you shoot that annoying jerk!
