Half-Life 2 Hints
Exactly what is she wanting me to do?
1 of 5: First, just pick up a few items like crates and paint cans with the gun and toss them around.
2 of 5: Then yank down the barrels that she points to up on a high ledge that you can't climb to.
3 of 5: TIP: There's also a supply crate on that ledge a bit to the left of the barrels. You probably can't see it or pull it to you from on the ground, so wait until you're on a higher ledge (see next two hints).
4 of 5: After that, she'll get up on another ledge and ask you to stack stuff so that you can get up there, too.
5 of 5: You only need to move one crate or barrel so that it's in front of the large metal basket, then you can jump onto the basket from on your item, and from there to Alyx's ledge.
