Half-Life 2 Hints
Cop Combat Tips
1 of 6: As soon as you get down to the sewer tunnel floor, turn left and look down the tunnel.
2 of 6: Find the explosive barrel that's standing next to an archway.
3 of 6: Shoot it once with the pistol, then start moving slowly toward it.
4 of 6: Shoot the barrel again two more times when a cop rappels down in front of you. The explosion should kill him instantly.
5 of 6: That cop drops an SMG, so quickly run forward and grab it.
6 of 6: Then use it on the two cops who appear past the archway. (Or retreat for cover and shoot them with the pistol.)
