The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints

Zombie Building Combat Tips

  • 1 of 10: You can drop grenades down on the zombies, but why bother when Alyx can do all the work for you?
  • 2 of 10: That is, she can after you unblock her line-of-sight with the zombies a bit.
  • 3 of 10: You see those sheets of metal lying on the rooftop?
  • 4 of 10: Many of them can be picked up with the gravity gun and thrown aside.
  • 5 of 10: Do so in order to allow Alyx to see and snipe more zombies.
  • 6 of 10: Most of the open roof sections are covered by fencing, but two of them aren't, so be careful to not fall down into the building as you're going around removing metal sheets.
  • 7 of 10: When the building seems clear, find one of the spots where you can drop through the roof and land on a large metal platform.
  • 8 of 10: A whole lot of zombies will appear after you drop down, and they'll knock out your platform's wooden supports before long.
  • 9 of 10: There is a trick way to handle this situation, but it's a lot of trouble, and the regular way isn't all that hard to do.
  • 10 of 10: After all of the zombies are dead, you can look all around for supplies to pick up.
