Half-Life 2 Hints
How can I get through the force field?
1 of 6: You've encountered this exact same problem before.
2 of 6: Remember the huge bridge you had to go under to get to a certain control room back near the end of Chapter 7?
3 of 6: How did you turn off the force field in that control room?
4 of 6: You found where it was plugged in on the other side and shot out the plug, of course.
5 of 6: So do the same thing now.
6 of 6: Or toss a frag grenade through the force field while there are still soldiers in there. That way you'll blow up two problems with one grenade.
