Use whatever rockets you have as well as the ones available here (there's an infinite rocket crate in a white van further into the roadblock) to take the gunship down. You can get your car past here, but first it's time to deal with the gunship. Drive up the road on the other side until you come to the various cars blocking the road. You don't have the time, cover or ammo to defeat it now, so ignore it and turbo across the gap in the bridge. However, as you approach it, you'll see a gunship fly over and turn to start attacking you. Odessa Cubbage is his name, and don't laugh at it because he'll give you a rocket launcher!Ĭarry on along the road to the bridge you came to before.

A rebel will greet you - get out of the car and follow him to the basement where you'll see the same guy who was conversing with G-Man before. Go back to your car and carry on along the long stretch of beach until you reach another Combine thumper carry on past it and up to the rebel base you saw a few minutes ago. Inside the building is an old, wrecked boat suspended over an open floor (perhaps for when the water's high enough) with a supply crate in it, and another below it. Carry on along the dunes to the next thumper, and take out the Combine patrol fighting the antlions. When you're done, collect up anything you need, check the garage and get back in your car. There are some more supplies to pick up, and in addition you can look through the Combine observation scope to see the next rebel base, including a brief glimpse of G-Man conversing with somebody on the top floor of one of the buildings. This is a Combine checkpoint of sorts, so when you get in the main building kill the Combine soldiers on watch here. You can also use the car's mounted tau cannon, too it's quite powerful and will take down antlions in two or three hits.ĭefend New Little Odessa from the gunship attack.ĭrive down the slope past all of the wooden fences and follow the dunes along beyond the beached ship to another Combine thumper. Note that you should use the SMG whenever possible when dealing with enemies around the car when you're on foot - there's an ammo crate as mentioned on the back which will give you an infinite supply of SMG ammo for you to use.

Stop at the small shack up ahead just before the road tunnel for some supplies. Use the turbo when prompted to ramp across the gap, and drive up the hill to the main road. Follow the dark dirt track along the sand towards a slope which will lead onto a grassy section away from the antlions. A rebel-operated mounted gun will help take care of the antlions that come to pester you, so use the gravity gun to punt the car back upright. You'll start this chapter by emerging from inside the warehouse's back room into a large loading area with a crane and your new vehicle, the car! To begin with, hop in and the woman in the crane will lower you down off the wooden platform, only for the magnet to fail and you to plummet to the sand.
