Half-Life 2: Episode One Hints
How can we get to the Citadel in this old wreck of a van?
1 of 6: Remember how strong Dog is.
2 of 6: He could probably throw that van across to the nearby Citadel opening with you and Alyx both in it!
3 of 6: Either before or after Alyx gets into the van, go over to its front-side passenger seat and use the "Use item" key to sit down.
4 of 6: Sit tight while Dog picks the van up and throws it through a large nearby opening in the Citadel wall.
5 of 6: After you land on the other side, you'll go through a fun little roller-coaster ride as the van crashes through various parts of the Citadel.
6 of 6: When the ride stops, get out and watch as the van falls into a huge abyss. Close one!
