F.E.A.R. Hints
What's option #2?
1 of 8: This option involves not activating the two turrets at all until you're safely away from them.
2 of 8: When you reach the first turret (notice the circular shape in the ceiling), don't turn left and move down the next corridor -- that's what activates the turrets.
3 of 8: Instead, check out the side area that's past the first turret.
4 of 8: Find the large grating on one wall and bash it out.
5 of 8: Since you can't jump into the crawlspace from the floor, punch the white-and-yellow box that's on a nearby cart until it's on the floor directly underneath the grating you just bashed.
6 of 8: Get onto the box, then jump-crouch into the crawlspace. (This may take a few tries.)
7 of 8: You can exit the crawlspace into the room that's between the two turrets and take a right when you go out its door, or you can keep going through the crawlspace until you emerge past the second turret -- either way gets you past both turrets without activating either one of them.
8 of 8: NOTE: These turrets will activate when you go through a door a bit further on, but if you don't stand in the doorway and gawk, they won't be able to shoot you.
