Half-Life: Opposing Force Hints
The ceiling panels gave away! What do I do now?
1 of 10: First things first; get out of the electrified water.
2 of 10: If you die and get a second chance, stay close to the right as you move across the ceiling panels. That way, you land on a desk above the water and not directly in the water.
3 of 10: Once out of the electrified water, you need to find a way out.
4 of 10: The room is flooded so do not expect to find a way out at ground level.
5 of 10: Instead, try to get back up into the ceiling.
6 of 10: A fallen air duct provides a route back into the ceiling. Carefully jump across stationary objects and floating debris to reach the air duct.
7 of 10: Climb back up and continue onward.
8 of 10: Many of the ceiling tiles will fall out from under you when you step on them, so be ready to hop back out of the water and try again.
9 of 10: Keep going until you reach some sturdier ceiling tiles.
10 of 10: You can tell which ceiling tiles will drop you by looking for ones that look water-soaked. Also, you can shoot tiles or whack them with the knife or wrench to test their sturdiness.
