The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints
Zombie and Worker Attack Tips
1 of 10: Move up to the boarded doorway and stand there until the mine cart that's a ways past it starts rolling toward you.
2 of 10: Dash out of the way before it crashes through the doorway, then quickly nab the unbroken supply crate that's on it to get an SMG grenade.
3 of 10: After that, lots of zombies will come running down from the area above.
4 of 10: However, the crashed mine cart in the doorway will effectively block a lot of them, and there'll be a couple of antlion workers spitting poison at them from nearby.
5 of 10: Retreat while your vort and the antlion workers finish off the zombies.
6 of 10: After the zombies are all dead, squeeze past the mine cart and look at the little ledge above it to see the antlion workers who were spitting at the zombies.
7 of 10: They should be easy to finish off since they can't hardly move at all.
8 of 10: Either lob a grenade up there, or stand to where you can shoot them with Primary Fire bursts from the gravity gun without them being able to spit at you.
9 of 10: If they do come down off the ledge, dodge them until your vortigaunt companion can zap them.
10 of 10: Move on down the tunnel a bit to get one last antlion worker to spawn and attack. As usual, let the vort kill him for you.
