Half-Life 2 Hints
How can I accomplish this?
1 of 7: By remotely removing the two striped blocks that are holding the APC in position.
2 of 7: The only way to do this from a great distance is to shoot them out with the jeep's tau cannon.
3 of 7: Position the jeep somewhere on the road near the junk blockade so that you can clearly see the APC and its two tire blocks using zoom mode.
4 of 7: Then keep firing the tau cannon at the blocks until they're both knocked aside and the APC goes rolling into the ocean.
5 of 7: This can take a bit of time due to the fact that the tau cannon isn't pinpoint-accurate over such a distance.
6 of 7: However, if you aim carefully at each block and fire continuously at it for several seconds, you should be able to knock both of them aside before too long.
7 of 7: TIP: Try using powered-up secondary blasts to knock the blocks aside. Just one hit on each block should do it!
