The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints
Fast Headcrab Combat Tips
1 of 5: You could quickly shoot them with the SMG or pulse rifle while crouch-walking backward.
2 of 5: Or you could try to repel them all with the gravity gun.
3 of 5: You might want to have the gravity gun ready, then stand up and run for the first white van as soon as you see the headcrabs coming toward you.
4 of 5: If you crouch-walk through the van fast enough, you can stand on the other side of the fence next to it and shoot headcrabs through the fence.
5 of 5: As you head back toward the third white van, start watching out for zombie torsos. There may be several crawling around.
