Half-Life 2 Hints
Combat Tips
1 of 3: Have your SMG out and fully reloaded as you move cautiously forward past the zap-wire bridge.
2 of 3: As soon as the zombie appears, you need to shoot him down as quickly as you can due to all the electrified hazards nearby that you don't want to accidentally retreat or dodge into.
3 of 3: NOTE: If you now go back through the areas you've already been through (either using the new fence hole or by recrossing the zap-wire bridge), there'll be a lot of new ambush headcrabs around. That's why I advised going back and getting spare ammo and stuff before crossing the zap-wire bridge.
