Half-Life 2 Hints
Supply Notes
1 of 6: It's easy to get from the third safe room back to the second one, where you may have left some stuff you didn't need before.
2 of 6: You can also get back to the area with the first safe room if you want to.
3 of 6: Go up onto the rooftop with the rocket crate, then find the corner that's diagonally opposite to the one with the rocket crate.
4 of 6: Go through the hole in the wall there to drop down to a spot fairly near the first safe room. (You shouldn't even take any damage from the fall.)
5 of 6: Now you can go as far back as the underground parking area where the car bomb was set off.
6 of 6: To get back to the rocket crate area, just go the exact same way you did before, except with no soldiers or striders to harass you.
