Half-Life 2 Hints
Can I just skip this antlion guard and move on?
1 of 5: This antlion guard area is just like the last one -- you can run straight for the exit and use it without having to fight the creature at all.
2 of 5: As soon as you drop out of the guard room's window, turn left and sprint forward.
3 of 5: You'll quickly come to a table and green trash bin blocking an open barred gate.
4 of 5: Jump up onto the trash bin and crouch-walk your way through the open gate, using the gravity gun to blast the second trash bin out of your way.
5 of 5: You'll end up in a rubble-strewn area that the antlion guard can't follow you into.
