HL 2 teleporter achievement

[Cavalry]

how do you break the mini-teleporter in DR. Kliners lab?
I tried
A.a book
B.cactus plant
C.book and cactus
D.computer monitor on ledge
E.monitor with book
none of these broke the teleporter,so,how did you get this achievement?

Since I don't own Half Life 2 for the 360, but I think I heard some things, but may not be accurate:

I think you have to tinker with the thing for a while, keep teleporting things etc. Not sure, but worth a shot.

 

[Pringlos]

At least on the PC version the teleporter breaks up after you have used it long enough. I'm not sure of the exact number of uses it takes to break it though

 

[PimpinPenguin]

Keep using it and put loads of things in it and it will eventually break it takes awhile.

 

[Cheomesh]

Odd...normally if I use anything bigger than the folder, it breaks.

 

[AciD]

Try 20-25 times and you should get this achv.

Searching for this brings up too many results to wade through, so I might as well pop this question here.

Have achievements been retroactively added to the previous games, like HL2 and Ep1? If not, is there any plan for it in the future?

Only on the 360 us PC owners have to wait.

Use a cat.

I remember playing with it once. I put a moniter on the left teleporter and sent it to the right. The moniter was to big fit it the right one because of the machinery around it. When I sent it over a bunch of sparks shot out and the teleporter wouldn't respond anymore.

 

[Druckles]

I always use the cactus. If I could, I'd send that annoying dancing girl model thingy on the desk.

 

[ríomhaire]

I think if you stack something like 4 folders on it and try to use it it'll break. You could also turn on cheats and lob a grenade into it

 

[Druckles]

Why would you need to use cheats to throw a grenade?

 

[jerkasaur]

because you don't have grenades at the beggining of the game?

try putting objects at the place where objects are supposed to be teleported.
i really hope you got that...
let's try this:

hehe

 

[Druckles]

I don't think it breaks, I think I tried that at one point, and the other objects just got pushed out the way, or something.

And you do go back to his lab later if you remember, when you do have grenades

 

[jerkasaur]

oh yeah you're right. forgot about that one...

EDIT: but hey, aren't you supposed to break the teleporter the first time to gain the achievement?

 

[Druckles]

I'm not sure, I have the PC version and I haven't updated in ages.

I was going to say try using the gravity gun to pick up something big, but then realised you didn't have it, then realised you do later... so I'm not sure

 

[ranmafan]

Mostly just put anything that's too big to fit inside the metal cage of the left hand teleporter onto the right hand teleporter and hit the switch. Yes, they go BOTH ways.

 

[Druckles]

I still reckon they should provide you with a cat to test it on
