Best way to kill those metal thingys?

H

In half life 2 there are those flying metal objects which hurt you and fly around where you are constantly....

what's the best way to take them down?

At the part where I am at, there are 6 or so of them flying around me and about 5 enemy guys who keep shooting at me.....

 
First use the right forum, then use the gravity gun to suck them up and shoot them at walls or other flying metal thingys. 😛
Ohh ya, halflife2.net forums are your friend.

when do you get this shotgun? I just got the deagle. (well, it's a one shot one kill type gun)

there's no deagle... you mean the revolver? (magnum or something)

you can't miss the shotgun. if you don't have it then yu are not there yet.
 
Cougar Magnum is the gun you're talking about.

Once you get to Ravenholm you'll get the shotty. It works wonders on both combine and the things you're talking about (I forgot their name). But the pulse gun is probably the best later on and everyone uses it. Just be prepared for the striders, heh.

pulse gun has really low ammo reserve for the speed it consumes ammo. kinda shltty imo
 
the gun i have the best luck with is actually the pee shooter.

very accurate and i am always getting headshots with it...

must be the cs influence.

Have you beat the game yet? After about chapter 7 that's what all the combine use. Fills up really fast. I always get headshots so it only takes 3-5 bullets to kill one.

I'm getting the impression the combine has unlimited ammo?

:laugh: the combine are the basic grunts that you first face in combat. They're the guys with the electric cattle prods at the beginning of the game directing you around. They have unlimited ammo, yes. And they don't have to reload. Which are both retarded.

I'm not really sure because after I beat it I started going through with godmode on hard and I let them just fire at me for 2 minutes once and none of them ran outta ammo. But you only can pick up a clip from each one. Besides it only holds 60 bullets plus the active clip.

Magazine, dammit. It's magazine, not clip. 😛 The last gun to use a true "clip" was the M1.

Fvck if I know anything about guns that I haven't learned from games. I've just always referred to it as a clip *shrugs*

It's impossible but you have to make sure they don't kill themselves (at least Barney). Trust me, during Anticitizen One they're really good at this with the turrets.
 
If you don't have the gravity gun yet then crowbar if you do have it, have your way with those things.
