Half-Life Hints
How do I get out of the water I crashed into?
1 of 11: The silo is divided down the center into two parts, both of which are flooded.
2 of 11: Unfortunately, the section you crash into leads just about nowhere and there appears to be no way across to the exit on the other side.
3 of 11: You need to figure out a way over to that exit. Dive underwater and look around.
4 of 11: Peculiar. Some tanks are caged and bolted to the floor. I wonder why?
5 of 11: Those tanks float.
6 of 11: If you break the locks on the cages that holds them down, the tanks will break free and float to the surface.
7 of 11: Now you can find your way back up to where you can jump across the tanks and into the exit across the way.
8 of 11: The "exit" really doesn't lead anywhere except over to the other side of the flooded silo.
9 of 11: You have no place else to go but back into the water, this time on the other side of the divider.
10 of 11: Perhaps there is a passageway underwater.
11 of 11: Take the only passageway you find and you will eventually come to dry land.
