Half-Life 2 Hints
Secret Area
1 of 5: There's a secret lambda stash in an area directly underneath this APC, but I don't recommend you go for it -- it usually hurts more than it helps.
2 of 5: But if you insist, you can drive the airboat up and stop it directly underneath the APC, where you're out of its range.
3 of 5: Find the hole in the nearby bars and crouch-walk through it.
4 of 5: Toward the back of the area are two supply crates.
5 of 5: WARNING: A headcrab will climb up nearby and attack as you approach the supply crates, and two cops will rappel down just outside as you leave. (You see? It's more trouble than it's worth.)
