F.E.A.R. Hints
How can I turn this turret off?
1 of 7: About halfway down the right side of the corridor that this turret is at the end of, there's a fence door with a padlock on it.
2 of 7: You won't want to stand and bash the padlock with the turret shooting at you, so hide in the safe corner on the left side of the hallway and shoot the lock off from there.
3 of 7: Wait awhile for the turret to stop firing at you and turn away, then run for the door and open it to get inside.
4 of 7: TIP: Quicksave first and use SlowMo while running for the door. It's possible to make it through the door without taking any hits, though it may take a few tries.
5 of 7: As soon as you're through the door, stand where there's a wall between you and the turret and wait for it to stop firing again.
6 of 7: On a wall to the left is an electrical box with a switch on its right side.
7 of 7: After the turret has stopped firing, run for the corner to the right of that box and use its switch to shut off power to nearby systems, including the turret.
