Half-Life 2 Hints
Building Combat Tips
1 of 5: Have your SMG ready to shoot the cop over to the left in the first room as you enter it.
2 of 5: Run for the room's back right corner (it's kind of a curvy wall) so the cop on the remains of the floor above can't shoot you.
3 of 5: Let your team shoot that cop down while you use the gravity gun to friendly-up the nearby hopper.
4 of 5: Move through a large wall hole and pick up another hopper, then quickly throw it at the cop who shoots down at you from a higher floor.
5 of 5: If the hopper doesn't kill him, quickly run for cover while your squad does.
