Hi,

I dont know what im doing wrong, but everytime gordon gets killed on the
glassplaform elevator when the 3 piece of metal is coming down. I throw the
balls award the peices. first goes good, second also good, the third you
must wait for a while but then when i hit it whit a ball it doesnt do a
thing, we just get killed. For 10 or 15 times right now. What am i doing
wrong in here?
any help?

thnks

Dick

Wait until Alyx tells you to look out then catch them with the gravity
gun and then knock them away. Stand underneath the falling large pieces
(the small ones are inconsequential), look up and hold down alt-fire.
Once you've got a hole of them press primary fire to knock them out of
the way.

Listen to what she says more. Not trying to sound demeaning, but she
does let you know how to get through it... something about needing to
get close to the balls.. to .. do. something.. to them..... (no sexual
pun intended) ;-P

spoiler..

oh, as an added bonus, try to take out the combine sniper you'll come
upon soon with the ball instead of a grenade :-D It's funny as hell.

Cheers,
Acercanto

What did you do with the mine earlier in the citadel? The one you had to go
and fetch? What did Alyx tell you to do with these?

It's really worth listening to Alyx - she gives great tips.

Pick up a mine with your grav-gun and hold it out to Alex. Then do the same
with the other one. Then watch the fun...

Your right but I'm already way ahead this point, i picked up one of the
bombs (with little hint from acercanto) and the rest was easy (again). Yea
and its fun to watch what comes then.

I stopped at the point while i have to go with a lift to the surface and the
whole place is dark and i just put on electricity for the lift, but then it
all get kinda nasty. Alyx get killed. I had a save when the lamp is almost
out of energy. I hear a lot of enmies but a dont see a thing. I think ill
have to take an ealier save game, but ill do that tomorrow. thanks for the
help. Although i solved most things all by myself before i could even read
any of the tips. (if there's any weird english in my text, it's just because
it's not my own language).
