Half-Life: Opposing Force Hints

Where do I find the military radio that the scientist spoke of?

  • 1 of 5: The scientist you first met gave you some important information: there is probably a radio where your helicopter went down. You need to find that radio.
  • 2 of 5: The military radio is near the downed Osprey helicopter that you rode in on.
  • 3 of 5: Unfortunately, the radio is behind the helicopter, which is now electrified, preventing you from passing by it.
  • 4 of 5: Once you get to the radio, use it.
  • 5 of 5: You will find out that the military has bit off more than it could chew and is pulling out. You had better hurry if you expect to make it out with everyone else.
