Quake 4 Hints
How can I avoid the acid-spraying gadgets that Private Lanier warns me about?
1 of 4: The first one will come spraying along right after Lanier runs off.
2 of 4: Fortunately, it's easy to avoid.
3 of 4: Just move back into the big pipe you started the level in (or run into the low tunnel on the right that you have to take to move along, anyway).
4 of 4: The sprayers are simple machines with a job to do. They're not out to get you, so their movements are slow and regular, which makes them easy to avoid as long as you're watching (and listening) for them.
