Can't find Ch 4 Stronghold key...

Just beyond the switch you've just shot, there's a door on your right. "Push" against that and it should open. If you've got beyond that, I'm not quite sure where you're stuck, so please post again.

Good luck.

I think you shall go down the stairs to the left before reaching the armory door. And then out of the door at the end of the stairs (to the right) then i think the key was out in the open to the left when you come out.

Thanks Ancient Mariner. I've pushed open the door to the right after the portcullis and gone down the corridor but then I end up at another portcullis that won't open. This is the bit where I wander up and down the battlements wondering where to go next....

That's weird. As I remember it, you push the door open, make your way up past a few enemies, hit a T-junction, left takes you to a portcullis that doesn't open, right has a soldier sniping from behind a crate, go past him, up some stairs and you should reach a door to the roof. I've been through this a few times and it's always been straightforward.

Sadly, this may be a re-start-from-last-checkpoint job. That would sometimes happen in Painkiller but hasn't happened to me in NVN, yet.

Good luck.

Ive had to start over once. It was even in this chapter I had to start from the beginning. Ive forgot to close the door at the start of the level, and then I just kept on dying when I reached the gas in the middle of the stairs. I could rush down to the wheel chair monster, and die there, and I could make a stop to the right at the end of the stairs and wait to gain health, but I would die anyway. When I started over, closed the door in the beginning and then proceeded. No problem at all

Thanks guys - I started over from a previous save and that seems to have done the trick! Put it down to another glitch....
