Half-Life Hints
How can I get back into the complex's hallways?
1 of 9: Once you reach a room with several pipes and two bullchickens (one on the ground, one in radioactive waste), you can see a standard hallway that overlooks the pipe room.
2 of 9: You want to get into that hallway so that you can continue traveling through the complex.
3 of 9: The hallway is out of reach from the ground.
4 of 9: You need to find something higher.
5 of 9: There are two pipes that bend around and lead over towards the overlook of the hallway. Maybe if you were to jump off of one of them, you could get back into the main complex.
6 of 9: If you are on the ground floor, you will find a ladder back near where you exited from the pipes. Climb it to get back on the pipe that you exited from.
7 of 9: From on top of that pipe, you can reach the two pipes that you need to walk on.
8 of 9: It is usually better to follow the higher one since it is easier to jump from.
9 of 9: Once you have navigated over to the hallway entrance, jump from the pipes and into the hallway. (Save your game first; this is a trickier jump than it appears.)
