The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints
Torso and Soldier Combat Tips
1 of 6: Have the pulse rifle or crossbow out as you move toward the van's other doorway.
2 of 6: A combine soldier will run by chasing a fast zombie torso. Try to shoot down the soldier before he runs out of sight.
3 of 6: Immediately turn back the way you came and blast any zombie torsos that have appeared behind you.
4 of 6: Leave the van the way you came and look for two more Combine soldiers to be between you and the autogun, behind the nearby row of cars.
5 of 6: If you stay crouched, you should be able to head-shot them with the .357 or crossbow easily before they can do you much damage.
6 of 6: While that's going on, watch to make sure the fast zombie torso doesn't crawl through the van and come after you -- it may or may not do this.
