Glitches/Mechanics
Since this expansion uses version v1.08 of F.E.A.R. (displayed as "FEAR XP v1.0 - Retail Expansion"), some glitches such as the "ladder glitch" do not work and are not present in this run. Although "object boosting" and "people climbing" may still work, they do not have any known use in the speedrun of this expansion.
Crouch glitch
------------------
groobo's submission notes for his segmented F.E.A.R. run (no longer on the website) explained the crouch glitch as follows:
"If you want to move at running speed in areas through which you could fit only by crouching - do this: run up to eg a tunnel's entrance, MAKE SURE YOUR SPEED = 0 IN EVERY DIRECTION, crouch, now release crouch FIRST and start moving towards the tunnel. Nothing more to it."
My explanation is the following: if you have crouch bound to a scroll wheel direction, all you have to do is push yourself against the surface you want to crouch against, and flick the scroll wheel a notch to activate crouch while moving the direction you want to go (presumably forward), and when done correctly, you should maintain full movement speed while inside areas such as ventilation shafts.
Float glitch
---------------
The float glitch, or floating, is something I was fortunate enough to have discovered (at least, I am unaware of anyone who noticed it before I did in 2013, but someone may have). By holding jump while spamming both "use" (on the ladder) and crouch, you can cause the game to place you in a floating state. You will be unable to jump while in this state, but can float around at a fixed height. You can decrease your height at will by repeatedly crouching, and can increase your height by pushing against surfaces that raise themselves, such as railings, or by utilizing the MP-50 which will push you upwards at the cost of health (direct blast = 70 damage).
Binding crouch to scroll wheel, as mentioned before for crouch glitching, can make activating floating easier, and also makes quickly lowering your height a lot easier as well, which can be useful outside of floating.
Melee canceling
---------------------
You can cancel out part of the animation performed when punching by crouching, allowing you to punch again immediately, and effectively combo enemies with punches. Since punches are similar to rockets in their damage, being able to unleash a flurry of them due to this trick makes your fists one of the most powerful weapons in the game, although obviously limited by their range.
Reload canceling
----------------------
You can have your weapon automatically reload itself if you holster the weapon after it runs out of main ammo, before it begins its reload animation. This is primarily useful for reloading the LAW in situations where more bolts are needed, such as against Nightcrawler Elites.
