The party's over?

[wackjob]

And just when I was finally havin' fun! I'm on the water hazard level and was enjoying the high seas (so much so I took some pics) when I've apparently run out of water. First, the pics. I thought the imagery in this was beautiful. Dark, foreboding & gloomy with the wind whistling in your ears. I got out of the hovercraft to take this one:

I headed off to my east and picked up some supplies dropped from above. Next I proceeded into a moat-like area where it seems nothing can be done. I came back out, disembarked and stood on the shore watching. I had knocked down two of those stupid cameras. Now all is silent, save the wind. I stood on the shore and watched:

Is this the end of the road for the hovercraft? Can someone hint what to do next?

 

[sinkoman]

Wow.

Keep moving. Der.

You go under the bridge that the guy tossed the supplies from. You should run into the building with the chopper battle soon after.

 

[Seagull]

Find all of the blue barrels near the Wooden-Bridge type of thing, and go underwater and raise it up. Then continue.

 

[sinkoman]

Ah. Figured that he got that one figured and was like "wtf?".

Hehe.

Yeah, that one took me a while too. On my first run, I took all the barrels and put them on the opposite end of the platform, because I thought that I was supposed to weigh down the platform with them Took me a damn good few hours positioning the barrels so that they didn't roll down.

Swam down to grab the barrels under water, when it hit me

I guess you thought it would be more fun if you left out the MINOR details like

"Find all of the blue barrels near the Wooden-Bridge type of thing, and go underwater and raise it up. Then continue"

Well aren't we quick to insult.

Please, lower your voice.

 

[A True Canadian]

Remember, the game design is very linear. Very rarely will you find yourself backtracking.

Oh and by the way, I like those pictures you are taking for your threads. :thumbs:

Easy SinkO, it was jab, not an insult. I come here for help, not insults myself. I took "der" as a "duh". If I was wrong I apologize. :cheers:

 

[WhiteZero]

Well, if you took a few minutes to explore the area, you would have had to make this thread in the first place.

Enjoy the rest of the game.

Here's a hint: Buoyancy.

 

[Sulkdodds]

Yes, I thnk they've already told him what to do.

Question

I've got a question for you... wackjob...

Have you got a brain in your head??? :rolling:
If so please use it.
I am sure we all don't mind helping out someone genuinely stuck, however your are just taking the p***. :flame:

 

[Shodan]

Is there anyone apart from me, who didn't have to ask anyone what to do, for ANY of the puzzles in Half-life 2?

Sorry, to sound big headed and all, but really, its more fun if you work it out for your self.

 

[Sandman]

I think most people were able to complete the puzzles without any problems. That's kind of a bummer to me though. I would like some more challenging puzzles.

Yes. Yes there is.

When writing the walkthrough for HL2, I thought to myself "jesus christ, how the hell is it even possible to get stuck on this game? The only bit that's remotely puzzly-hard is that bit with the valve and the flooding room and I figured that out after 20 minutes or so. It's so pointless even writing a walkthrough for this game, it's just 'turn left', 'turn right', 'press the button'..."

 

[<RJMC>]

I never get so sutck in the puzzles so much,I allways finded what to do by just exploring

I am sure hl2 will be hard to a person that is get used to play fps like halo,sure they will never find out how to solve puzzles like that

 

[exoeight]

I got stuck at this one part, so I thought about it, and then I wasn't stuck anymore.

 

[Insano]

Yes. Yes there is.

That was also the only part where I was stuck, but I also figured it out myself

I did first build a ladder of the barrels instead of using the ladder to get to the room with the valve
