F.E.A.R. Hints

How can I get across this hole?

  • 1 of 10: You can't cross it here, so you'll need to drop down into it and hope you can find a way back up somewhere down there.
  • 2 of 10: TIP: Before you drop into the hole, kill the two Replicas on the other side of it. (One or both may be hiding so that you have to enter the room to the right of the floor hole and shoot them through a big hole in the wall.)
  • 3 of 10: As soon as you drop down, search to the left and right of where you land for supplies (including two remote bombs), then head forward.
  • 4 of 10: The nearby staircase and elevator are completely worthless, so bash the boards off of the doorway opposite the stairs and go that way.
  • 5 of 10: Turn left and go through an unblocked doorway, then wait for a Replica to appear in the doorway just ahead and to the right.
  • 6 of 10: After he's down, go through that doorway and blast the other two that were with him.
  • 7 of 10: Then turn around and go find the nearby room that has doors and tables set up like a large ramp.
  • 8 of 10: You can run up that ramp to get to a small chunk of the upper floor.
  • 9 of 10: It turns out to be the one that's across the big floor hole you dropped down into earlier.
  • 10 of 10: You can't go much of anywhere up there, but before you go back down the ramp, be sure to get the reflex booster and other supplies from a table.
