Portal 2 Hints
How can I get to the exit door once it's open?
1 of 7: Did you notice the large extender platform that rose up next to the exit alcove when you got the laser redirected into the receptacle?
2 of 7: That's a "portal fling helper" if I ever saw one.
3 of 7: Drop down to the main floor and look directly across the chamber from the extender platform.
4 of 7: There's a small high-up wall section over there that's portal-friendly. (It's the one that's just to the right of the small high-up ledge that had a redirection cube on it earlier.)
5 of 7: You're going to need to use the portal-flinging mechanism to bounce yourself high into the air, then quickly turn left and relocate the blue portal onto that wall section.
6 of 7: When you fall back through the orange portal, you'll be flung across to the extender platform, from which you can easily get to the exit door.
7 of 7: NOTE: If you didn't fry the turrets in the exit alcove while redirecting the laser beam into the receptacle, you'll need to quickly run around behind them so you can knock them over safely.
