Stuck in "Follow Freeman"

[Phil The Kill]

I killed off one of the three generators and then when I came to the room with the red laser beams that trigger the wall-mounted turrets, I chucked a table inside first to hopefully set off the turrets and have them expend their ammo or something.

Well,the first part went as planned as the table triggered the guns, the door closed as it should (with me and my boyz on the outside), and I figured the door would reopen after the guns cycled. No such luck.

So I went and finished off the second generator and the Combine troops, but now I'm stuck outside the door (beeping from within) and can't open the door no matter what I try.

And because of the goofy save game feature, I have some autosaves within the building after I threw the table in and the last apparent Auto Save before that is waaaaay back in Nova Prospekt. I have no available Quick Saves or Auto Saves other that.

I sure don't want to have to start all over again from Nova Prospekt. Anyoneknow how to force that door open again or defeat the force field barriers so I can get to the third generator?

Thanks

you cant force the doors open.

you cant make the guns run out of ammo.

you have to go in there, and jump from platform to platform, avoiding the red lasers. you have to get through the room without setting off the guns.

the only way to get through the door now is to cheat, and it might not let the game proceed if you do.

there's a button to press to unlock the doors. it's near the door other than the one you enter. you have to climb over all the stuff in the room to avoid the lasers. complicated stuff, i know.

Thanks guys ... had to resort to a "no clip" cheat ... hated to do it but I think the devs didn't anticipate a player doing what I did.

Seems you aren't the only one. Is there a way to report this to Valve?
