The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints
Web Cache Tips
1 of 11: As you move along, look for more webs off to the side that you can optionally bash to get ammo.
2 of 11: Some of the webs won't be within the reach of the crowbar.
3 of 11: The first web cache you come across is within easy reach in the right wall as you move on from the first big cavern area.
4 of 11: After you go along a very narrow ledge in the second big cavern area and start along a large up-sloping tunnel, you'll come across the next web cache.
5 of 11: It's way above your head, so get as close to it as you can and hit it with a Primary Fire burst.
6 of 11: When the web breaks, some SMG ammo will fall down to where you can reach it. (Note that there are some grenades on the ground nearby.)
7 of 11: A ways beyond that is an even trickier web cache. Look for it in the tunnel ceiling.
8 of 11: When you hit this web with a gravity gun burst, it'll drop a live frag grenade!
9 of 11: Back up until it explodes, then look up to find that there's another web up beyond it.
10 of 11: In order to zap this web with the gravity gun, you'll have to jump up before you fire.
11 of 11: This web will drop an SMG grenade that you can pick up.
