For the past month I have been trying to update this without any luck. I would not even bother with updating if it was not required by Steam to play. What happens is after a fresh install it will update to a random point and go no further. It will even make itself look like it is still updating by showing download speed and total amount downloaded in the Steam bandwidth monitor. However, the percentage will remain the same and the size of the update files in the game directory will not change. No other Steam game has this problem. I have gone to the F.E.A.R. 2 support forum and the told me to go to Steam support. I have not heard back from Steam support. I want to know if there is anywhere I can get the update files and add them manually. If not, there goes 50 dollars down the crapper.

Verify integrity of game cache. If that doesn't fix it, go to settings and beta participation, select Steam client candidate. Download the beta client and let it try to update the game. Once update is done, you can switch back to regular Steam client.

Thank you for the advice, but I have tried both of those and neither worked. I have even reinstalled multiple times. With every fresh installation, it will begin to update and at a random point it will have this issue again. It only started doing this when 1.2 was released. It had updated to 1.1 with no problem.
