Half-Life 2 Hints
Section 8: Pump Station 67 (d3_c17_08)
1 of 17: Push through the first barred door you come to, then drop down to find one that can't be pushed through.
2 of 17: A ways past the second barred door are some big wooden beams that you need to knock out of your way using the crowbar or gravity gun.
3 of 17: Past that, there are some manhacks you need to dispose of (using the usual gravity gun techniques) before you figure out how to get over the little fence at the other end of the room.
4 of 17: As soon as you're past the fence, look left to find a side area where several manhacks are tearing through wooden crates on their way to you.
5 of 17: After smashing them all, check down at the end of their area to find some health and armor.
6 of 17: Back the way you came, there's a large wooden crate on the ground in front of the passage to the next area -- but before you go there, find the hidden supply crate.
8 of 17: Once you're on the lowest walkway, look around for an official lambda-endorsed supply stash before trying to get past the large metal double doors that are in the little side area.
10 of 17: The way to progress from here is to get to the walkway you can see on the other side of the sandy canal, but the bridge leading over there has been destroyed.
11 of 17: Get down off the walkway when you come to a spot with two supply crates on the ground and a barrel blocking the entrance to a small rubble-filled passage.
12 of 17: After bashing open the crates, move back a ways and pick up the barrel with the gravity gun to reveal a headcrab (then throw the barrel at the crab to kill it).
13 of 17: Then jump over the rubble past the dead body and health kits to reach the bottom of the pump station. (After reading the following supply tip, of course.)
15 of 17: After you reach the highest point in the pump station and kill off all the soldiers who appear, you've got the place to yourself. Time to relax and gather some *serious* supplies!
16 of 17: When you're through supply hunting, return to the pump station's uppermost walkways (the same way you got to them before) and look around for a way to exit the pump station.
