HELP: Chapter 10 inside the jail with those 3 robot guns

[RE3456]

what way should I set up my 3 robot guns? I keep dying in that part and I already tried all I can with it, wut I did was set up 3 guns pointing 3 different gates and then hide inside the jail cell but there are just too many damn enemies, any tips?

Don't hide in a cell, set up the three turrents near eachother, but spaced out a small ways. I set up on one side of the corridor and just kept my turrets standing (If you don't know, walk up to a turret after it has fallen, pick it back up, and reset it up). Just hold up until Alyx gets there... You don't need to defend anything, just stay alive. Keep all three set up around you, keep nades out (to stop from knocking over your turrets) and use the ammo box to resupply yourself.

Pretty easy, just keep the turrets mounted, and keep them all within eyesight.

I found that the best way to do this part was to set the turrets up in the small room you found them in.

If you're facing the health/armour terminals set up 2 inside the room covering the right entrance, and 1 inside covering the left.

Then get out your shotgun and crouch down in the center turret cabinet.

Don't worry if your turrets fall over, just keep sitting in there blasting every enemy that comes into your sight. You can kill almost all of them in 1 shot without them even hitting you.

If you need more ammo you'll have a nice stash of bodies/ammo piled up in front of you.

If you remembered to bring the Sentry gun from the previous part of the prison, with 4 its fairly easy.

I set up my guns like so:


----F1 ------------------F3

----g1

---h g2====c1=======
-- x

---- g3====c2======
----g4

----F2-----------------F4

g1 covers F1
g2 covers c1
g3 covers c2 (or if only 3 guns it covers c2 & F2)
g4 covers F2 (if you brought another gun)


x is the closed gate (exit when finished) F Are the blue force fields, c1 is corridor with Sentry gun storage, C2 is corridor with ammo crate. g are the gun positions....basically have one each covering the 2 force fields, the other 2 covering the corridors. h is the best place to hide (by the computer terminal, you're fairly covered,(especally if you build a barricade with boxes/barrels) plus you can blast any Combine (use SMG as youve got a inifinite ammo crate) appearing on the balcony above.

This way only got hit about 3 times and the Combine just died in waves (on Medium difficulty).

If youve only got 3 guns, Id put the 3rd gun in the position of g3/g4 at a 45 degree angle to cover both c2 and F2.

Dont feel rushed to set things up - until you place the last sentry gun the Combine wont attack. Build a barricade, stockpile the ammo lying about etc....take your time.

I posted this in another thread

"In the end I had to block one of the enterences with boxes and barrels then.. put the other 3 turrets on the other three enterences but have them really close to pillars or the wall so they didn't stick out and get hammered. If you do this, which I think you should becuase the blockade is a good use of physics then make sure you kill the combine behind the blocked enterence after Alyx says "I'm on my way" otherwise she won't turn up!

By the way I'm writing this because it was so annoying I died like 8 times! Anyway, I would also like to say this was one of the best moments of the game. I like a challenge
