Half-Life Hints
How do I make it into the alien world?
1 of 8: After restocking in the Level A supply area where the security guard and the scientist are waiting for you, head on out and into the main gateway chamber.
2 of 8: One of the scientists is already waiting at the controls to open up the gateway into the alien world.
3 of 8: After a while, the scientist will begin to start up the machine. Make your way to the platform that you will have to jump from into the machine's gateway beam.
4 of 8: Once he starts up the machine, aliens begin teleporting into the room and flying around.
5 of 8: Fight the aliens as best you can. Hopefully you brought the security guard with you into the chamber. He will help cover you. (And if you brought the scientist, too, he'll help distract the aliens a bit.)
6 of 8: You will have to wait until the scientist gives the go ahead to jump through the gateway that is being created.
7 of 8: This may take a few minutes. It is very important to help keep the scientist alive during this time period or else you will die.
