Vivendi Timeline[]
F.E.A.R. Perseus Mandate[]
After Armacham Technology Corporation security guards kill Aldus Bishop and begin openly battling against F.E.A.R. and Delta Force units in F.E.A.R. First Encounter Assault Recon, Commander Rodney Betters airdrops a second F.E.A.R. team that is more combat-ready into Armacham Technology Corporation's Secondary Facility.
The second team's initial tasks are to investigate ATC, its involvement in any wrongdoings, secure Armacham's Global Data and Security Center, and retrieve any valuable information they can find about Project Perseus.
The second F.E.A.R. team composed by three F.E.A.R. operatives (including the player) is HALO (High-Altitude Low Opening) dropped into their mission landing area located in the flood waterways from a US military C-130. Their mission begins in the Replica-controlled Quarantine Zone. Soon, they are tasked to rescue a weary Delta Force team held up in a records building.
After sweeping the building, the Origin Facility explosion occurs and their primary foe becomes the Nightcrawlers.
The second F.E.A.R. team is equipped with the same tactical load out as the first team's operatives - such as the D-12 body armor and wielding G2A2 Assault Rifles. What differentiates the 2nd team's outfit is the gray color of the of their combat uniform's forearms.
The members of the second F.E.A.R. team also have assistance from SFOD-D (Delta Force) operators while conducting their missions. Almost all SFOD-D operators are outfitted in urban digital camos and primarily wielding RPL Submachineguns and G2A2 Assault Rifles.
After the events of Perseus Mandate, Steve Chen is killed, the Nightcrawler leader is eliminated, Alma Wade's DNA sample is taken back from the Nightcrawlers, and Captain David Raynes and the Sergeant are successfully extracted by helicopter.
The Nightcrawlers then deliver a mysterious "Source" to the Senator.

Members of the 2nd F.E.A.R. Team[]
- Captain David Raynes: The leader of the secondary F.E.A.R. team, Raynes leads the team through the mission, issuing orders to Lt. Chen and the Sergeant both in person and through the radio.
- Lieutenant Steve Chen: The second member of the secondary F.E.A.R. team. A wisecracking soldier, Chen seems to possess a well-rounded skill-set which includes combat, forensics, and technical expertise.
- The Sergeant: A F.E.A.R. combat operative and the protagonist of Perseus Mandate. He shares many similarities to the Point Man, including super-human reflexes.
- Rodney Betters: The field commander of F.E.A.R. This time he is in a C-130 airborne command center. As in the original F.E.A.R., Betters interacts with the F.E.A.R. team over the radio, issuing orders and providing intelligence. Contact with him is lost halfway through the game, after the explosion of the Origin Facility.
Trivia[]
- According to Betters and Chen, the second F.E.A.R team had a previous mission set in Amarillo, Texas prior to the events of the first game. While the mission itself is unknown, it seems to have resulted in an unwanted death of a high-value target, with Chen claiming it to be an "accident" in a defensive tone.
- Betters's line "I don't want a repeat of Amarillo" is even referenced[1] in Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (which Richard Pearsey was a narrative consultant on, having written Perseus Mandate prior).
