The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints
Garbage Zombie Tips
1 of 9: Since you know he's in there, you could toss a frag grenade in with him. There's a couple in the nearby supply crate if you need them.
2 of 9: However, he'll just toss the grenade back out before it explodes.
3 of 9: But he won't toss a second grenade back out, so you can throw another one in.
4 of 9: Or you can have the gravity gun ready to grab the first grenade when it comes out and quickly toss it back in.
5 of 9: However, note that the grenade won't kill the fast zombie, but will only make him catch fire and come after you.
6 of 9: So immediately run back up the stairs and all the way to the brown pipe cluster near the white gas tank so you can hide there while the zombie burns.
7 of 9: An alternative is to just skip this fast zombie entirely.
8 of 9: Find the padlocked fence door that's at the opposite end of the area from the garbage bin and remove the lock.
9 of 9: Quickly open the door, go through it, and close it before the fast zombie can get to you. He's too stupid to know how to open doors, so you'll be safe from him (though you'll be in an area with several other zombies).
