F.E.A.R. Multiplayer Tips from Prima Games

Multiplayer Tips and Hints
When you get the SlowMo Recharge, everyone on the map knows where you are and they will likely all make a beeline straight for you, guns blazing.

Place traps in high traffic areas, or especially near coveted items. Be aware of sniper points, and throw grenades at them as you pass by, even if you aren't sure if they're occupied. Even better, you can place a proximity mine near a common sniping point to take out potential snipers.

F.E.A.R. this game online.

The Campus Map
This map is a sniper's paradise. There are windows overlooking the large courtyards, allowing excellent strategic viewpoints. If you need to run through the courtyard, be aware of the snipers above, so holster your weapon first, which will allow you to run faster.

The Construction Map
This isn't a great map for sniping and the Type-7's slow fire rate makes it a less desirable weapon than usual. The only area to snipe from is scaffolding leading to the lower level, but it is open to attack from all sides. The scaffold and the stairs are both excellent places to set remote bombs or proximity mines as well.

The Type-7 spawns on the roof near the skylight. Place a mine near it to take out would-be snipers on their way through it. The rocket launcher spawns in a large room on the upper floor, near an armor spawn and a health station, making it a high traffic area, and an excellent area for traps.

Press and hold Use at the security console on the lower level to view different areas. Your back is completely exposed when using the console, so be on your guard.
