A Brief Foreword * ***************************************************************************** Just a quick guide for the first episode of the three to be released. I played this game first on the PC and what an ordeal it was to load the game. Though I have figured out Steam at this time, I decided to do this guide after getting the Orange Box and covering Episode Two. After this I plan to cover the first game as well and Portal at some point. I may make some sort of Half-Life 2 package for all the related games, but not Team Fortress 2. For now, just enjoy this quick guide on a short, but sweet, episode. TheGum ***************************************************************************** * 2. Controls ( CON2222 ) * ***************************************************************************** Here are the 360 controls: A - jump B - reload X - pickup/use/activate Y - flashlight RT - fire primary LT - fire alternate RB - Gravity Gun/last gun LB - sprint RS - look/aim; click to zoom LS - move; click to crouch START - pause; save game BACK - move squad (not used in Episode Two) The PC has standard FPS controls, and the same since the last game. For all three of you with PCs and without knowledge of the controls, you can choose what buttons do what in the options menu. ***************************************************************************** * 3. Starter Tips ( TIPS333 ) * ***************************************************************************** *Save SMG grenades and Energy balls for Hunters - both are the alt fire for the SMG and Pulse Rifle. You run into Hunters often enough that saving these will pay off. *Explore to success - always search areas for health and ammo. The areas are not too expansive, so a little searching won't kill you. *Use the Gravity Gun when you can - if you see a saw blade, that's an obvious clue to use the GG. See a lot of gas tanks and red barrels? Same story. Even a rock or normal barrel will be enough to inflict damage. *A loaded gun is a not happy gun - sitting on a full clip of ammo in any weapon does you no good, and you get plenty of ammo throughout. *Chuck a grenade into big groups - simple as that. Tossing a grenade will send it pretty far, so always know your range. *Don't forget to run - not just the normal stride, you also have a sprint button. It's your only way to avoid charging enemies, but don't forget to use it during normal encounters. *Drive in bursts - the best way to drive the car is to press the gas in little spurts. Pushing forward at full speed is just crazy. *Play for achievements later - some can be attained during a normal run, but don't go after the more elaborate ones until after you get through one game at least. Don't forget you can check your achievement progress from the pause menu. *Alyx is a B****! - really, she is a combat ally in this game, but most of the time she will be right on your back and prevent you from backpedaling. Not to mention she will be blocking the path behind you in most situations, such as going back through a door. Just know that she's behind you. ***************************************************************************** * 4. Walkthrough ( FAQ4444 ) * ***************************************************************************** This guide was made on the default settings. Achievements are somewhat addressed, but this is not a guide on how to get every one. Read ahead to get a better sense of what is happening. The only thing you can do is read and hopefully connect the dots with what you see on the game screen. Picking up right where we left off. ====================== Chapter 1: Undue Alarm ====================== Okay, so after the very odd opening cutscene, you awake under some debris and have a bit of a scene. Pick up the Gravity Gun and follow the events that follow. When Alyx hops up, go to the right and look at the wooden boards holding up a gate. Pull down all three boards to drop the gate and get up. Go to the computer and watch and listen. After that, Dog pulls up some wreckage from a dropship and you can crouch under to get through. Inch over the edge to find the path along the cliff. When you get to the gap, stand back, press your sprint button, and then jump across; you should barely make it. Keep following the path, crouch under some debris, blast away a car with the GG (gravity gun), and you will hit a dead end. Not much to do but watch where Dog goes. He goes behind somewhere and starts searching for something, so just stand back and watch out for the falling car. Then jump in and enjoy the pleasant ride. After you step out of the van, and after it falls to oblivion, look left and go that way (straight ahead is nothing). Follow the corridor until you hit a load screen. Move ahead and then you two will stop to look out into a canyon-like area where things look really messed up. Then hop over the rails on the left to get on track. Follow the hall and you end at a locked field with Stalkers on the other side. Alyx then sees some Roller Mines in another area and she will open a field to let you through. Crouch down and follow the small path. You will arrive at a ledge with a rugged looking platform just a bit down below. You have to jump down to this platform and then quickly jump down to the right before the platform falls. Do so and then go across an active elevator to reach the mines. First, use the suit armor station on the wall to get some hitpoints. If you'll notice, you're still all juiced up from the first game. Go over to the button. When you push it, the mines will drop and they will all try to attack you. Blast a few away and make sure you grab at least one, the rest will bounce themselves away. Don't stand by the sides or the mines may bounce you off. And if you lose all of them, more will fill the tube so you can try again. Make your way to the elevator and take the mine back to Alyx. Hold it to her and she will make it friendly. Just drop it by the field and the mine will do the rest. Then you are free to pass. Take the open path to get back out to the canyon area. When you make a turn along the ledge you will see Combine out and about, but they don't harm you at the moment. Crouch under debris to reach the bridge they came from and follow it the way they came. Move the debris with your GG and be careful of the flames in this room. Some energy thing will happen, but just keep going. When you get to a rail, hop over to find a ledge. There will be a bridge not far away, and if you look across you will see soldiers coming right for you. All you can do is watch. The only way to get across is by sprint past the energy vortex thing. Step a bit onto the bridge and as soon as you see the swirl of energy go away, hold down sprint and run. Stop and wait for your friend to join you and then proceed. Keep following the path before you and hop over another rail when you hit it. Watch as the girl works on the computer. Something strange happens and then you guys will be on your way. Move along until you hit another confiscation room where the GG is changed back to the way it was at the end of the last game. Collect it and move onto another load screen. Move to another bridge, but you will have to turn this one on. Look down for some energy balls just hangin' around, and pick one up with the GG. Send it into the energy port below the bridge with the red light to be on your way. Cross the bridge, but you are stopped by fire and then some Combine appear. Suck them in with the gun and try to launch the bodies at the other guys, but you will probably end up just sucking in all of them. Get off the bridge and look left to find more coming from a fieldway and down a path on the side. After about nine or so they will all be gone. Now go to the other inactive bridge and put energy orbs into each port. Go across and you get yet another round of Combine. This time they come from literally all sides; behind, front, the side, and up. Get the ones up high and then keep an eye on the few that come from your back as you take care of the ones coming from the left side field. After that, go to the bridge and look down yet again. The port on the right is fine, but the one on the left is blocked by a shield. You have to send a ball at an angle to the spot just above the shield. You are trying to get the ball to hit the wall and then the shield and then bounce itself into the port. After that is done, get across the bridge. Follow the path until you see some kind of spark on the floor. Go around the corner and be anticipating some soldiers. Keep moving until you hit yet another part of the canyon area. Go around the corner and when you hit a floor area that is clear, look right to see a lone soldier trying to shoot at you. Suck him in and then a Dropship will come up and fly over you, so just watch what it does. Stay to the path after a while you find a opening in the wall that leads you to a door for Alyx to open. Go through, another spark on the ceiling, and then a load screen. Move along to an elevator. Use the armor station to power up and then grab a ball to use on the port across the elevator. When you do the descent begins. Get to a side of the elevator and look up. There will be two objects falling to start it off, then after a pause there is another. Your best bet is to barely pull at the things with the GG and then blast them away. May take a few tries. Then you stop. No more falling sky for the moment. Instead, look across the way to see another energy port behind some glass. Pull at the computer on the right from afar to open a hole. Then turn around and grab a ball from the beams. Send it to the wall behind the hole so that it will bounce toward the port and hopefully right in; may take a few tries. Then things get back to going, so look up. Just one falling sky item this time and then another stop. There are two computers on each side of the wall-piece in front of the port, so move both. Then grab a ball and send it into the port. You should go down a bit, but then come back up. There is a Stalker in the room to the left that is messing with you. You must grab a ball and send it into that area so that you take out the dude. There is an opening to the room on the left of the port, so angle in some orbs a few times and one will hit him. Then power up the lift and get going. The lift begins to move very fast, so now you should look down in anticipation of the exit. When you get to the bottom you can look up to see something very big start to fall. Just get off the elevator and onto solid ground. Turn around to watch the elevator get pummeled. Move through the sliding door to a load screen. ============================== Chapter 2: Direct Intervention ============================== When you go through the next gate you run into a group of soldiers in a computer room. Those little bastards were busy trying to blow everyone up. After a bit of a scene, follow Alyx into the side room with a armor station. Take the elevator into the reactor room to get this thing over with. Move into the big room and you will see two Stalkers on platforms across the way. Look up and grab some energy balls and send them at the enemies so that you can do your work; you can hold the ball right toward them and align the crosshair, they usually don't move fast enough. Now activate the port above you, and then the one across from you to get the first bridge up. Then go across and activate the other port across the other bridge to get it up. Go across and press a button to get all bridges pointing toward the center platform. Go to it and take the ladder up. Get off and at the top and go around the ledge to find a path on the wall. Inside and toward a room you run into another group of Combine and more from up above. Kill them and then go back outside to grab an energy ball. Take it back to the room and send it into the port. After you get this part of the core stabilized, more soldiers drop in from above and the opened door on the side. They bring Manhacks, grenades, and their mean attitude to the fight. Keep moving, take out the soldiers first, and then grab the bots. Just grab a Manhack and shoot it directly into the floor or wall to blow it up. Go through the door after you recharge your suit and you hit a dead end. Pull off the cover for a corridor and jump in. You need to move quickly and you need to avoid the coming orbs. Move left and right to avoid them and grab one if you are toward the end so you can quickly get out. Then go up the path until you hit another dead end. Blast off this cover and jump through for another tango with the Combine. Kill them and get back outside. Follow the bridge toward the core, but watch yourself. You have a very slim path to get to the other bridge, and the core itself is pulsating. When it receeds, sprint across to the other bridge. On the wall is another path to a room with yet more soldiers waiting. Get the ones in the hall as they run to you and then get the ones from above in the room itself. There is an orb in this room for you to use on the port, and there are always more outside. Another door opens up and you can hear more soldiers in the distance. Take the elevator up and then go down the hall and be ready for more enemies around the corner. Use the station on the wall and then move ahead to the core room. Then turn around and wait for two soldiers to try and sneak up on you. The goal here is to get on the carousel above the core and follow the ride until you can jump onto the platform on the right. But when you jump onto one of the four beams, get up to the top and jump to the next one against the flow and you should be able to get to the platform much quicker. You can then face the oncoming Combine and get them out of the way, and then turn your attention to the Manhacks. But if you want to spin around the ride for a while, that does work too, you just won't have anywhere to throw the bots. Take the path until you hit another cover on the wall; blast it and hop through it. Go to the end and hop through another hole to reach another corridor with more flying balls (yes, I meant to say that). The way best way to get through this one is to move down one path and just blast the orbs as they fly toward you. You might take some damage, but if you keep moving you will make it to the path at the end. Blast off the cover and get ready for more soldiers in the room (be on your toes for energy balls fired from Pulse Rifles, those can be used against the Combine if you can react fast enough). When they are cleared, grab an orb from the broken glass on the wall and send it into the port. The machine will get stuck, but you can go down below to fix the problem. Go down there to find that three energy stations are without their balls ... I mean energy. Look up near them to find a crack in the ceiling that has the flying orbs from the previous corridor. Grab two and shoot them into the stations. Grab one more and go to the platform that will take you back up, then shoot the orb into the last station (if you light up all three from down here, the lift won't take you back up, so you have to be on the lift). Back up top, grab another orb and put it in the port. Then watch as everything is back to squares. You lose all your beefiness though, for some reason, and then you can take the opened door right back to Alyx. You hear of some black holes and revelations and then you watch a video clip. Run with Alyx to the safety elevator. Take it down to the train area and there is a load screen. Go through the blast doors to a room where Alyx locks you guys in from the enemies. Two Roller Mines drop in, so grab both and let Alyx hack them. Set them down and wait for the door to open leading into the next room. The mines will take out the soldiers inside ... eventually. Then you can go through and get on the train, but use the health station near the train before you step in. Turn on your flashlight if you must and get on. Just stand around and wait for you to crash. Crawl to Alyx after you do and pull the top of the Stalker-holder to get it off her. Then blast open the cover near her and jump down. Crawl through an opening to hit a load screen. ================== Chapter 3: Lowlife ================== After she is ready and opens the field, go through and hit the roadway where you run into your undead friends. The turrets on the ceiling are of no use because they have run out of bullets, so you and her have to clear the place. Use debris to kill the zombies, and toward the middle area you run into the mines, so pick them up to make them friendly, but they will kill the zombies either way. Kill the ones around the trucks and then take the dark path on the right. Follow it to a door and then look right and down to find a vent. Take off the cover and crawl through. Grab some items across a gap, and one of them will be a flare that will light your path if you want. Keep going, take a ladder, and soon you find a vent cover. Below will be a Headcrab, so just blast down the cover to kill it, or hop down and use something to kill it. Go to the right corner of the room to find a fence holding some good items behind it. Use the GG to pull them to you and through an opening in the corner of the fence. Get the Handgun and Shotgun and others, as well as some items in the lockers nearby. Then use the handgun on the lock on the other side of a door on the other fence. On the left wall is the power box to let Alyx through. Go outside with the flashlight on. Look right and pick up a red gas tank and flinge it at the zombies with the GG. Then turn around and go get some ammo by a dead guy. Come back and keep going right. You will hit a car with some zombie bodies, and when you get close to the car the bodies will wake, so be ready. Find the hole in the wall on the road to keep moving. Go around the field of dead Antlions and then you hear some commotion. Use the GG to pick up a gas tank on the ground and send it into the fighting bugs and zombie, kill any survivors. Not far away is a train, so go inside and find a body of a new type of enemy (and where you hear the classic name Alyx gives them: Zombines). Soon, one on the other side will blast open the path so you can get through. Grab the items in here and get back in the tunnel. Yes, now you will fight the Zombines in battle. Use the GG to start with to send red barrels all over the place, then follow that up with some shotgun shells, but always stay close to Alyx so she can help. Cautiously use the barrels so that none will blow up in your face. Move forward and keep on your toes for more undead from all directions. Pick up a flare from a car and set it down by the locked door if you need to catch your breath and recharge your flashlight. *NOTE: Zombines will sometimes pull an active grenade from their chest and run toward you. Either kill them quickly or try to pull the grenade and shoot it away with the GG, or back away real fast.* Move forward and you should run into some Barnacle tongues, so avoid them and find a door leading to a small room on the left side. Go in and use the power box to turn on the lights. Grab the items and look back to find more zombies on your tail; I just used the rocks on the ground to kill them. Run back to the locked door and go through and up the stairs. Have your gun ready for the poison headcrabs up top: one in the stairway, and two more through the door. Go up the path a bit until you see a car, a hole in the ground, and a gate in the corner. Use the GG to blast the car over the hole to keep the Antlions at bay, kill the one that may have got through. Then go to the turn-wheel by the door and hold it down so you can go through. Two headcrabs will come out, so take care of them after the door is open. Go through and two more headcrabs will be along the path along with some items. When you go through a fence you will notice the huge bunch of Barnacles covering up the path, and in the distance you will see a bunch of zombies coming down the way. Alyx will not to stopped from killing the Barnacles, but not shinning your light will help some, or shine the light only on the Barnacles near you guys. Let the tongues catch the zombies, use barrels to kill the survivors, and let Alyx clear the path of Barnacles. When you get to the corner, more Zombines will greet you. Blow up the barrels at the right moment to get a few in one hit, and hit the barrels by the glass on the wall to get the others. When they are gone, go through the door and up the stairs for a load screen. In the next area you will see a bunch of Zombines rise and they will start fighting some Antlions. Shoot a gas tanks to take out one Zombine, then run down the path to get into the open. Kill the Zombines and let Alyx take out the bugs, you need to find the car in the center of the room and knock it over one of the three Antlion holes on the ground. When the middle one is locked up, go up a beam to reach the second level. You will see another car in a hole in the wall. Blast open the crate in the doorway nearby and get in so you can get the car out. Knock it out of the hole and down to the ground, then hop down and push it onto the nearby bug hole. *NOTE: You can use the GG to knock over Antlions for Alyx to blast, but at no time during this fight should you actually stop to fight bugs, unless you really have to.* That leaves just one more. Go up to the second level and around the sides to find your third car behind a downed gate. Find a beam over the middle of the room that leads to the third level. When you get up here, go around and find another beam that will lead you to the right side. Go through the opening on the wall and drop down to the area with the car below. Wait for the Zombine to wake up and kill him, then go turn the wheel on the wall. When the gate is open, quickly blast the car through and over the side where you can knock it over the last bug hole to make this area safe. Now you can explore the room to find more items. In the room on the second level there are some grenades, and near the gate for the car there are some items too. Not much on the third level, so just get up there and turn the wheel on another gate to open up the path. Go through and take the stairs down. You can get off on the door, or you can do down a bit more to find a torso zombie and a crate. Head through the door to enter a watery room. Move into the middle area and about four Zombines will rush from the front. When you get to the other side, more zombies from the front and back; be sure to use the barrels on your terms so that you don't get fried. Proceed and you will hit a big room. This is called the Nightmare Room because it will haunt you long after you get through it, if you get through it. Start by turning around to find some items in the corner. Then go toward the light where you should charge up your flashlight, you'll need all the juice you can get. After the lights go out, save the flares for later, just know they are there. Go around the elevator to the right side to find some items in a corner. Grab what you can and send the rest toward the elevator with the GG, all for later. Now make your way back to the elevator and this time go down the side of the room you didn't come from (it's the side across the fence, just go straight). You will run into a lot of items and flares and exploding stuff. Don't spend too long exploring because there are enemies in the area. I suggest using the exploding stuff now so that it doesn't hurt you later. There is a cache of items behind a fence on the wall, and more stuff in a room at the back with a Zombine (send a barrel at him before he gets up). *NOTE: You want to throw items toward the elevator for easy grabbing later.* When ready, find a door between both items stashes and removing a wooden board holding the doors in place. When you open this door a Zombine will go suicide-bomber on you and pull out a grenade, so back away. Go inside and use the power box on the wall to call for the elevator. Grab the items and quickly get back to the elevator doors. There is no set plan to get you through this without taking damage, so long as you survive, you win. Turn around on the steps and look for the zombies. Blow up the exploding stuff nearby to take them out, but I highly urge against you using the GG as a weapon here, or you'll end up with a lot of barrels blowing up in your face. Always look in every direction and use your hearing to know if something is nearby. When a Zombine gets close and you hear that ticking sound, bail out and run in any direction, but be sure to come right back to the steps. When you hear a shierking sound, that be the fast zombies, so take them out quickly. *NOTE: The only time to use the GG as a weapon will be early on, but after you flinge a couple of gas tanks, you should probably stop.* A novel plan is to bail out to the area on the right side of the elevator, since the undead won't come from the side you are on. Everything goes smooth enough until your light goes dead. When this happens, just run to the middle area and pick up some health items, but don't wait for it to recharge all the way, just enough to get you by. You cannot just leave Alyx alone or you will lose her and you will fail. If you feel lucky, toss a grenade to a side of the doors to hopefully hit something. All you can do is keep your light on, keep shooting, and keep moving. When the elevator arrives, just run inside and this fight will be over. ======================= Chapter 4: Urban Flight ======================= After the entertaining ride up, run with Alyx. The gate is locked, but no worries. Turn around to find a wheel on the wall by another gate. Turn it and collect the items in here. Blast away the boxes to find another wheel on the ground in the corner. Pick it up and bring it back to the locked gate. Set it into the red box on the wall and turn that sucka. Go up to witness the state of the city - nothing a little duct tape won't fix. Listen to the doc for a while if you like and then head toward some metal sheets blocking the path. Pull them down and go through to run into some security bots, just pull them in and shoot them into the wall. Free up the path and keep moving to see some Combine drop into the alley. Let them run into the raised area in the middle where you can use the gas tank to kill a few. Proceed to a moving wall of the citadel and run through when it moves. *NOTE: Killing the previous soldiers is when you gained the SMG, so don't forget that you have it.* More bugs in the next area, so you know the drill. Three bug holes and you get one medic to help. Just get to the cars and move them into place. When you head down the road you will see two zip lines where soldiers will rappel from, so be ready. After all is calm, go toward the door at the end and move the boards in the way. If you can, peek through and toss a grenade inside, or grab something and throw it into the red lasers to set the place on fire and eliminate the bad guys. With the flames going, you are in for one clever little puzzle. If you were not reading this, you might spend the half hour I first did figuring this one out. Grab the items in here and then go around the corner to find a see-saw. Now, the trick is to disregard the similar puzzles in the first game. Instead of adding weight to the saw, just pick up the plastic box and set it under the right side of the rock so that the right end won't move when you step on it. If you understand that the object is to prevent the saw from moving by jamming something under it, you will quickly see what I mean. With the box in place, jump on, run to the end and jump to the ledge on the wall, and then turn off the gas. Now come back to the front, pick up Alyx, and go up the stairs for a loading. At the top you will see the full extent of zombie brainpower as one will walk directly into a trap. Then more will get up, but just avoid their projectiles until a Roller Mine drops in. Grab it and let Alyx convert it to the light side. It will take care of the rest, so just collect the items. Don't run in front of the window because it's covered by a sniper. Sprint down to the stairs and go down a bit to see another roller for you to convert. Shoot it and the other one into the open where they will distract the sniper. Grab the items and quickly run to the side of the doorway. When ready, sprint over to the cover a building to the right. You should toss a mine toward the side of the sniper so it can be a distraction, then you need to use the cover of the cars in the road (crouch), and then run to a doorway on the left. From here you can run to the area with the turret and find some boxes of grenades in the back. Use the GG to get the grenades and send one up to the sniper. When he's gone, Alyx will join you. *NOTE: A Dropship may drop more mines, so be ready. Also, one time an Antlion appeared from nowhere and attacked me - odd.* She will take up point as you play decoy. Take the ladder when it's there and go over. Go to the right just a bit to wake the sleeping zombies, then make a dash for the pit area in the road. Kill whatever gets close to you, but Alyx will handle most of the threats. Items in the room by the first barricade. Then go into the room near the second barricade to get on path. There is a headcrab by a box soon after you enter. Keep moving and go up some stairs. In the walkway over the street, toss a grenade to the other side to take out the sleepers. Then use the GG to knock down all the planks on the left side so Alyx can have a clean shot. Go to the other side and bait the zombies around the corner, or drop a grenade. Either way, run back to the walkway and let Alyx do some sniping, but watch out for the Zombines, you may have to run from side to side if you want Alyx to get them. Proceed after a calm and drop down to the ground level, and don't miss all the crates in this area of the building. When you go out into the streets, there is a bug hole, a Combine barricade at the end, and a turret gunner in a post. Go pull down a metal sheet from the back of this post to give Alyx a clear read. Then push the car all the way over to the bug hole and seal it up. Now soldiers will constantly come from the barricade doors until you run through. So the best thing to do is lay low and wait until one guy is left and then make a sprint for the open doors, or just wait til the next group comes. When you get through, clear out the enemies and wait for Alyx to start running toward you. Antlions will follow her, so take them out and all is well. Look up to the tower to see that it's back to square one. Go into the building to hit a loading. Move along an have your shotgun ready when you go through a doorway; just four soldiers. Go into a storage room and look left for a Pulse Rifle and other items. Two health stations on one wall and more rifle ammo on another. Then sit back and watch the two locked doors for just four Combine to break through. The rifle will kill them quickly. After, stock up on supplies and go out the left door to find the dark path with a lone enemy at the end. Go up the steps and pick up each armor unit and drop it over so that you can have more for later. When you drop down, get ready for a big fight. You will see the Combine and that's all good, but soon an Antlion Guard will show up. Let the Combine stick around as long as they can as you use the red barrels to get in some damage on the big guy. When it's just you and him, and Alyx and more Antlions, lure him around to the other red barrels and shoot those to get in big damage. Ignore the little guys and try to stay around the building you came from so Alyx can help, but don't forget that you have a lot of space in this area. Just use the Pulse Rifle, then shotgun, then SMG on the guard and it will fall in no time. Don't forget to lure him to charge into walls, you remember that from the first game, right? When the big guy falls it's just you and the little ones, and more Combine. Cover the two bug holes around the corner as quickly as you can, then get ready for more Combine to come from their barricade and also from up high. Kill them and go through, but if you need some supplies don't hesitate to go back a bit and scope out the previous area for stuff (don't miss the SMG crate if you want full ammo by the start area). When ready, jump into the pit and follow it. I say shoot the red barrels and then duck for cover, or just grab the mine behind the barrels before it blows and takes you with it. Find the vent and then take it. When you can turn right and go up a ladder do so. When you can see some items at the end, stop. Use the GG to pull those items to you (if you go too close you will fall back to where Alyx waits and she will say, "Back so soon?" in that snobby manner). Then go back and follow the main vent down until it falls and reveals some laser traps. *NOTE: Where you hit the ladder in the previous vent, if you look way up you will see a health pack if you need it.* Don't go out. Look up to find a vent cover that you can grab with the GG, but don't shoot it or you will probably die. Just grab it and move it to a new spot on top of the vent and then stand up. You better save now in case of the worst. The best thing I could do was grab one of the red barrels that was not touching a laser and pull it to me (careful not to grab it and hit a laser in any way). I placed it by the bunch of red barrels near the vent, then I stepped on the first one, then on the one I placed, and from this one I just jumped over the highest set laser and into the elevator. Another way would be to just sprint into the elevator as quickly as you can. Either way, the elevator drops into the water and you will have to bust open a hatch to get out and swim back up for air. You now have some interesting things to do from down here. Let's handle the bottom room first. There are two ways to get to the items in this room. You could ride the Barnacle tongue up a bit and then fall to a ledge on the same level as the previous laser- trapped room. Here you will find a vent that leads you directly to the items in a small room with a headcrab as company. Or you could touch a laser and real quick like fall back into the water. Either way or neither way, your choice. *NOTE: If you ever lose all the Barnacles and have no other way to get up to the mission-related vent, you will have to go through the bottom room (just jump in and jump out to take out the lasers), hop through the window, and follow this vent to the level of the ladder. Just jump to the side ledge and then to the ladder side.* Now there is the matter of continuing the mission. For this you must get to a vent at the very top. You can ride a tongue up there, or you can get to the same level as the last room, and the last vent, and then take a ladder up to the top from where you will jump down a bit to the vent. Follow it to a vent cover over a laser-filled room. No need to worry about being blasted, just pop off the cover and sit back a bit as the explosions go off. Drop down and grab the three mines in here to make them friendly. Then turn on the power via the box on the wall. Move ahead for a loading. Go into the next room with your pistol in hand. Peek around the corner and shoot a barrel just enough so that it starts to light, then back away as the room gets cleared. Go in and disarm the mine in the corner with your GG. Collect the supplies and then go around the corner and look up some stairs. Have your SMG in hand and stand back just enough so that you can see the door. When it opens, shoot the red barrel inside before it is thrown to you, and then clean out the survivors. Collect the supplies in here and grab the Crossbow on the shelf in the back. Look up in the corner for a green light on a plug. Pull it out to free up the path down the steps. Go down and take that path to get back outside. Three Combine greet you, so kill them and avoid their grenades tosses. Grab the items behind a fence on the right and then go down the street. More Combine at the other end and around the corner. When you hear a ticking, look to the very end of this street to see more coming from a door. Go over to this spot after it is cleared to pick up the Rocket Launcher among others. Maybe some more in the area as you come back a bit to find a friendly in a crevice who has opened up the path. Go through. Follow him and when he drops off a side, look behind this edge to find some crates. Jump over and follow him to a door and through for some good laughs. If you go through the doorway and look to the right wall for the STORAGE sign, open the door for yet another laugh; that makes three! Pull the TV off the socket so that it shuts up. Go up the stairs and to the top until the way gets blocked. Open the nearby door and be ready for two Zombines. Keep moving until you hit an open looking room, but no matter what you will have to fall through the floor and into a zombie pit. Blast away the ones near you and get to a safe corner, then you can use the GG to smash the others, or use the crossbow. Then move the debris by the door and go through. In this small room you can look down through a crack in the floor and peep in on some juicy conversation. Open the next door and get back up to the room with the broken floor. Just hug the side to get across, and a Zombine is waiting by the doorway. *NOTE: You may be able to avoid the zombie pit, but you have to jump to the left side of it; but then you miss the scare and the conversation.* *NOTE: I ran into another funny bit. When I rejoined Alyx and brought her semi- back down to the second level, she ran back down to the ground and told the others, "I wouldn't recommend using the stairs," and then she rejoined me. It's just funny because it wasn't expected.* Follow the path and you are reunited with Barney, and everyone loves Barney. After a scene, Barney at long last gives you the Crowbar, it's just too bad any use was lost after you got through the early parts. Oh well, cross the bridge and get moving. At the foot of the stairs will be some crates and when you go up your will find one headcrab. At the top you hit a room full of the things, so just toss in a grenade. Two Zombines are on the roof outside, so take them out of let them go after the Combine across the bridge. You can take them out and run, or you can handle the other guy that pops up to the right. Now you are in a hospital building so you must hit a load screen. Keep moving until you hit a big hallway with undead and soldiers going at it. Let them mess with each other for a while and the Gunship outside will also be at work. When ready, hug the right wall to avoid the ship and move forward. There is a room on the side at the end of the hall, but it's empty, so just keep going forward. Smash some crates and get to the room for a showdown. The Gunship fight in the attic will be tough, but you have an infinite stash of rockets in a crate in the right corner. You must first know that the whole place is liable to fall apart, so anything shot at will break; this means the roof and floor. You can let the Gunship have all the fun of breaking the place apart, or you can speed up the process by taking out parts of the roof, but that means less cover for you, but you also need to get a clear shot on the ship - pick your poison. The fight is simple, more or less an memory in the game. Just avoid falling through open floor and take your shot when it's through an open section of roof. I hope you do know that you launch a rocket, keep the laser dot on the ship, and the rocket will get there; and that the ship may try to shoot down the rocket, so play smart. Just keep firing and keep reloading and after five hits the fight is over. Collect the supplies and use one last rocket on the ground level door when some soldiers try to break in. Proceed. When you see a box, grab it with the GG and pull it out of the way. Then pull up the mine that was behind it. Go to the corner and then pull at the box by the fence to set off the laser traps. Alyx will upgrade to a boomstick and then she opens the field. Move along and when the music cues you know something kickass is about to happen. Alyx will be surgical with the shotgun as you move along, ignore the rooms on the side. When some doors blow open, just sit back and watch and Combine and undead coexist in perfect harmony; then blast away whichever side wins the fight. Go through and you will run into more this fighting. Kill the surviving side and collect the supplies before moving onward to the station. Nearby is a surgery room and a zombie locked behind a door on the other side. When you go into the surgery room he will bust out, so be ready. Health in here and then you will notice some fighting in the nearby hallway. Go out and watch as more of the eternal struggle unfolds before you. Go to the left to find a mine that you can plant in the center for mucho damage. Start killing the Combine after a while or until they notice you and finish up the fighting. Go to the end of the hall and enter a small room where the ceiling will fall and drop some headcrabs; clear it out if you desire the crate inside. Collect any supplies and keep moving. Kill the zombies lying around in the longue area on the left, then notice the group on the other side of a door. You can't go throug, so check out the other rooms down the hall. The one on the left has a free crate; the one on the right has two soldiers, so explore both. Then come back to the door to have it open. toss over a grenade and then use an SMG grenade to finish off the remainder, or however. Then go through. Drop down a hole to fall into the water below. Swim under and to some steps. Get up and blast the headcrab here, and then the other in the small room next to you. Then follow the walkway to and over the water to a corner where you will pick up a blue barrel. Grab it and turn to find more tongues in your way. Get the barrel directly to the other side of the room. Do you see the walkway that slightly sinks in the water when you step on it? Get the barrel and place it under this walkway. Now go to the support column nearby and flip the switch. The water is now lava, and lava hot. You need to jump from the floating walkway to the platform by the sparking power box. But there be Barnacle tongues in your way. You could turn off the power, jump into the tongue in your way, and then kill the beast, or you could just toss a grenade into the tongue and be done with it (be sure to aim the crosshair slightly to the left). From the middle platform, look right and jump on the broken pillar connected to some pipes. More tongues will drop obstructing the pipes on the right, so take the ones on the left, and be sure to crouch for better balance. From here you can jump onto a broken walkway connected to the small room. Then jump through the window, step as far to the right and top of the stairs as you can, and then you are free to exit through the open door. Go up and onto the level of the Barnacles. Collect the crates and move along to wait for Alyx to drop in. Then go through the door and past a bloody scene. Stop at an edge above some headcrabs. Get right to the edge and wait for them to jump at you so you can blast them. Grab the items across the gap before jumping down and set anything you want to the area down below if you want it after the coming fight. Save, have your best gun ready (Pulse Rifle), and then drop down. Quickly dispatch the Carrier zombie down here before he tosses too many headcrabs. Kill the ones he does and then go grab a mine off the shelf. Set it by the doors on the right. Then go grab another and go to the left, but just set this one over the crack in the window to try and take out the other Carrier. Kill his headcrabs and do the same thing with the last mine (if you can manage to toss them through the window, that's great). If you pull this off, save and get ready for a big group to come through the right side doors. Get rid of them in a hurry (Pulse Rifle energy ball, the alt fire), and then prepare for group two from the left. There may also be some stragglers on the right side when you go through, so be ready. When it's all clear, head out and follow the hallway to the right. Down the path you will see some zombies get only to get taken out by automatic fire. Sprint over to the left side and look down the hall. Use the GG to pull out the mine closes to you and then set it back in the ground. What you will do is sprint over to the cover of the wall on the right wall, then you will turn around and go back to the start as zombies pour from a nearby room. A Zombine, then zombies, then a fast zombie, and all the while you have more mines and the turrets after you. When that's over with, get back to the right wall cover, and from here sprint into the room. Grab the items in here and then peek around the corner to grab more mines. Set them up in the hall and in the room. When you go after the third one you will get more undead. This is a good time to use the crossbow and retreat back into the room. After this group is gone, sprint over to the room they came from. From here you can grab one mine, but you can get right next to the field and pull out a green plug to disable the field and the turrets. Then grab the last mine and get to moving to hit a load screen. ================== Chapter 5: Exit 17 ================== Move out to the open to meet up with Barney. Follow him and you will have the task of escorting lots of citizens from point A to point B. You start in an empty building where you pick up one group of people. Lead them to the opposite building across the parking lot, and take note of the rocket crate among the cars. Go through the building, taking note of some health under a table, and then into a train garage. Lead your team to the other side, around the front end of the train and go past a turret and through a door to reach the safe zone. Stock up on health in the locker area, then go to the room at the end to unload your group, and also find the Magnum on a crate. Easy enough, just getting a feel for the route. Now go back to point A. When you get to the garage area, Alyx will be manning the turret, so go back alone. You should run into some Manhacks in the garage, so deal with them. When you reach the parking lot, you will run into two more hacks and then some |
