F.E.A.R.

The term "Strong Language" is misspelled when the ESRB rating is shown at the beginning of the game.

The following list shows what you will notice when paranormal activity is close. Use this to prepare for any frightening scenes up ahead.

• You see Alma.
• There is a black cloud.
• There are flickering lights.
• The room is dark with not a lot of light.
• There are no enemies around.
• Communication says, "Incoming: Unknown origin".
• You see a large amount of blood with no bodies.
• You see Paxton Fettel.
• You hear voices.
• Objects move on their own.
• The flashlight and/or slow motion stops working.
• You enter slow motion on your own.

If the an enemy does not know you are there, holster your weapon and melee the guards. If you are lucky, the fallen guard will make little noise, and they will not look at you when you do it. You can dispose of the most of the guards without firing a shot.

Use the following tactics to defeat groups.

• Rush the enemy and take out as much enemy troops as possible, then hide.
• If the group has a Heavy Armor, take out the guards first then attack the armor.
• If you are in a tight spot and enemies are approaching in front of you, using slow motion and Drop Kick works nicely. Most of the time this will kill enemy troops with one hit.
• If there is a lot in a group, use grenades.

• Wait for slow motion to get up to full and make sure you have a shotgun. When ready, activate slow motion and fire as many rounds into the armor as possible. During this, it is also a good idea to circle around it to throw off its fire. This tactic is not useful if slow motion is off. The Particle weapon, Repeating cannon, and Rocket Launcher also does a great deal of damage against them.
  

• If done correctly, Slide Kicks will kill a Heavy Armor in one hit.
  

• Use the semi-auto rifle or plasma rifle. Zoom in and shoot it in the head, then in the upper legs where there is no armor. The Heavy Armor solider will double up each time and stop shooting. Repeat your shots from head to upper legs until it is dead.

Pistols can easily defeat nightmares. They can take them out in one shot, compared to other weapons that require multiple shots (except heavy weapons). This is also very useful, due to the fact that certain times when Alma and Fettel take you to hell, you will lose all weapons and get a pistol.

• Holster your weapon when they appear and use slow motion. Use a round house, slide, or bicycle kick when they are close.
  

• Use the following trick in Interval 8, Mission 2 during a Stealth Soldier attack. When you enter the warehouse, kill the first one that is in front of you and allow the second one to hit you. Watch it go away and keep an eye on it. It will come back and will jump across the ravine in order to reach you. When it does jump, use slow motion and a round house kick.
  

• Corner yourself so the Stealth Soldiers cannot sneak up behind you. A wall will work, but a corner is recommended so you have a better view.

When you find some ammunition, drop the corresponding weapon. Collect the ammunition, then pick up the weapon again. You will gain more ammunition than if you had only collected the ammunition by itself.

Because the assassins are difficult to see due to their camouflage and high speed running, try using slow-motion with L2. You will notice them immediately once they are slowed. After that, let all of your rounds into them. If you do not have slow-motion (for example, in the bonus mission when playing as the demolition man), you must have a quick finger and a good eye to notice them running around. There are two ways to do this. The first is to toss a grenade to reveal the assassin for a certain amount of time. Hopefully the splash radius will either hit him or kill him. Note: The grenade has a two to four second delay before exploding, and correct timing is required. The second way is to wait until the assassin approaches directly in front of you. When he reveals himself, start firing at him.

In the harbor mission, you will find plenty of consoles with "Power and shutdown." There are however, one or two machines that have wording similar to "Coins collected, secrets found, lives spent, ammo used, etc.". It is a gamer's console.
