Half-Life Hints
How do I fight the first headcrab I find out in the open?
1 of 4: After getting through the control room with the electrical beam, you will have to run through a room with some broken pipes and water on the floor.
2 of 4: Just as you step into the room, a headcrab will teleport in.
3 of 4: You have no weapons, thus you have no way to fight it.
