Friendly Fire
Objective: After meeting up with the soldiers, discover that the aliens aren't the only threat roaming the Black Mesa facility.
As you ride up the elevator, be prepared for some serious combat. When the door opens, walk into the lobby area and fight off several alien slaves that warp in. Your fellow soldiers should assist. Once you're finished with the fight, lure the engineer over to the door labeled "Exit," and he'll use his blowtorch to open its seal. Walk outside and locate the security door. Grab the armor power-up, shotgun, and trip mine located within. Return to the lobby and head up the stairs.
Make sure your soldiers are trailing after you. Take out any alien slaves that remain on this floor. You're likely to find one in the office on the right. Grab the health pack and ammunition from inside the room. Go through the red door at the end of the hall, and again, make sure your soldiers follow you into this new area.
Don't even attempt a jump through this electricity. Locate the switch box on the left and destroy it to turn off the power. |
After you enter the room, some alien slaves and an alien grunt fall from the ceiling. Dispatch them with your weapons. The door ahead is locked, so approach the double doors on the right. Head into the boardroom and take out additional alien slaves. Pick up the health power-up in the room and walk up to the left wall. It will bust apart when you get close, revealing more alien slaves. Eliminate them. Go to the left and take your first right (look out for that big burst of steam). Proceed into the office and through the broken portion in the back corner.
Climb up the pipes and over the metal vent. Locate an armor pickup in the room here. Locate the ladder and ascend. Follow the catwalk and leap over the small gap. Open the door at the end. Watch out for barnacles in this area! When you move through the door, you'll enter a large electricity-filled room. A few alien grunts wander along the platform on the far side of the room. To eliminate them easily, shoot the explosive orange crates just behind them.
