Half-Life 2 Hints
Fast Zombie Tips
1 of 6: The easiest way to deal with these zombies is to use one of the radiator grilles from the rooms just prior to the headcrab attic as gravity gun ammo.
2 of 6: As soon as you exit the attic, turn left and wait for the first fast zombie to approach.
3 of 6: After you kill it with your radiator grille, get the grille back if you can (or go get the other one).
4 of 6: Go across the wooden planks to the next rooftop to get the second fast zombie to appear, then retreat back across the planks so that it can only come at you from one specific direction.
5 of 6: Wait until it gets close, then throw your grille at it to flatten it!
6 of 6: As you're moving around on the roofs and ledges, you may see (and be seen by) a poison zombie or two down on the ground. There's no need to kill the zombies, but do watch out for the poison headcrabs they might fling in your direction.
