In regards to Faldio nearly fatally shot Alicia, here is my take.
In the game, the sniping wasn't up-close-and-in-your-face, thus the audiences' animosity towards Faldio may have been lessened as a result, especially he had his big redemption.
Here? We witnessed the shooting up-close-and-in-your-face personal, the effect on the audience is drastically altered, allowing those who already hate the man to hate him even more, and perhaps even change the opinions for some of those who might actually like the guy.
At this point, I am not sure if he knew anything about Alicia's secret, but if shooting her was simply due to his frustration, while suffering from a mental breakdown, its probably not the best way to raise our sympathy for him.
