Half-Life 2 Hints
Rollermine-handling Tips
1 of 5: If you push through the barricade and approach those supplies, two rollermines will drop through the large ceiling hole that's nearby.
2 of 5: The easiest way to deal with them is to quickly grab them and throw them back through their ceiling hole (or the biggest nearby window) with the gravity gun.
3 of 5: Watch out for more rollermines dropping through ceiling holes as you go back down to the first floor of the house.
4 of 5: Also, when you get back outside, you may encounter some of the rollermines that you threw out of windows or ceiling holes while in the house. Into the ocean with them!
5 of 5: Actually, you could prevent all of the rollermines from appearing by using the gravity gun to pull supplies to you from behind the furniture barricade. Do this if you don't enjoy playing ball with rollermines.
