The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints
Soldier Drop Tips
1 of 4: Dodge around on your walkway and use large pillars for cover as you shoot up at the soldiers, remembering that both you and they can shoot through the mesh-like walkways.
2 of 4: Or as soon as the soldiers see you, drop down to the lower floor and go for the wrecked door that's leaning on the rubble.
3 of 4: From there, you can edge forward and shoot soldiers as they appear without coming under fire from several at once.
4 of 4: NOTE: You may not have to climb up the ladder to the second walkway to get the soldiers to start appearing. Wait near the wrecked door to see if they appear, and only climb up the ladder if they don't.
