Half-Life Hints
How do I get inside the large building at the end of the ruins?
1 of 9: You will come to a point where an alien grunt throws a military soldier through a wall right in front of you.
2 of 9: Take care of the alien grunt and turn the corner to see the building I'm talking about across the road.
3 of 9: Drop down to the ground via the tall crates in one room and begin looking for ways into the building.
4 of 9: You may find a passage that leads around to a door that would bring you directly into the building. As usual, it is locked.
5 of 9: Therefore, you need to find an alternate way inside.
6 of 9: If you search around the outside of the building, you should see that there is no other apparent way in on the ground level.
7 of 9: Perhaps the roof has some form of entrance.
8 of 9: Another of those alien bounce-pads is attached to the ground right in front of the building. Use it to get on top of the roof.
9 of 9: You will find a vent that you can break through and drop down.
