Half-Life: Opposing Force Hints
Pipe Wrench
The pipe wrench is a more powerful version of the crowbar that you used in Half-Life. Use the pipe wrench to break through boxes, grates, and whatever else you feel the need to personally destroy. Use the pipe wrench to take out the simpler aliens such as headcrabs and regular zombies (until you get a much faster knife, that is).
