The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints
Once back there, how can I get to the autogun?
1 of 14: Looking around on the side of the building you're on, you won't find any doors that will open.
2 of 14: Note that there's a zombine banging on the back door, but there's no need to go near him or fight him.
3 of 14: It looks like you're going to have to do some more second-story work.
4 of 14: Check out the stuff in the back of the truck parked nearby.
5 of 14: There are two supply crates, a poison headcrab, and an infinite ammo crate for frag grenades in the truck.
6 of 14: Kill the headcrab by throwing supply crates (or a frag grenade) at it, then jump into the back of the truck and fill up on frag grenades.
7 of 14: Jump onto the grenade crate and then the truck's cabin.
8 of 14: Now you can turn right and hop onto a nearby roof with another supply crate on it.
9 of 14: There are three windows along the nearby wall that you can bash or shoot out.
10 of 14: Break out one of them and start lobbing grenades into the room below.
11 of 14: Since there's an infinite frag grenade crate nearby, you can keep tossing grenades through the windows until all the soldiers in the room below are dead.
12 of 14: Well, all but one, anyway. No matter how carefully you grenade the place, there's usually one in the back rooms who'll survive and attack you after you drop in.
13 of 14: Drop down and blast that last soldier to clear out the autogun room.
14 of 14: TIP: Look on a table in the back of the area (plus near the autogun) if you're short on pistol ammo.
