F.E.A.R. Hints
How can I get into that lab to get the supplies?
1 of 8: Start by looking around for exits in the hallway you're in.
2 of 8: Find the ladder behind a bit of fencing at one end and climb it.
3 of 8: TIP: Before you find the next ladder and climb it, bash the grating that's near the top of the first ladder and use the crawlway past it to get to where you can pick up a Type-7 particle weapon. This gun is the ultimate sniping weapon since it has a good zoom feature plus it does *huge* damage per shot! (As usual, I advise against permanently dropping a favorite weapon with lots of ammo, even for this beauty.)
4 of 8: Past the second ladder, look around to find a grate in the "floor" that you can stand on and bash.
5 of 8: You'll drop down into the control room that's on the other side of the contaminated lab.
6 of 8: TIP: Run up the nearby stairs to find some supplies in a side room, including a health booster.
7 of 8: Use the blue "activate" screen in the control room to get the toxic fumes vented out of the lab.
8 of 8: That will allow all three of its doors (including the one in the control room) to unlock.
