The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints
How can I get past the second force field now?
1 of 10: You'll have to drop down into the room past the force field from above.
2 of 10: Look around the area you're in for something to elevate you.
3 of 10: There's a ladder on one wall.
4 of 10: It's just across from the second force field.
5 of 10: Climb up it, then knock the wooden crates out of your way so you can walk along to the right of the vent shaft.
6 of 10: Crouch down at the shaft's other end so you can get under a wooden beam.
7 of 10: Then look to the right with the flashlight on to see a poison headcrab that you'll need to shoot.
8 of 10: Jump onto the boards the headcrab is on, then move across them to where you can cross over a vent shaft to get to a large rusty pipe.
9 of 10: Go across on the pipe to reach another board platform.
10 of 10: On its other side, you can drop down into the room beyond the second force field.
