Bunny hop down the narrow corridor into the room with the roller mines.
Try to get as close to that computer that Alyx uses as possible as she walks towards you at one point. Pushing her towards this computer is also a possibility to consider.
Get her to re jigger the roller mines once they appear from the wall.
Waaaaaaaait for iiiiiiiiit.
Punt the rollers at the soldiers.
Let Alyx let down the blue laser field and open the train, while she is doing this grab some extra health from the wall.
Live out the long cut scene.
Crash into a… thing.
When the screen is black you can still move, crouch and sprint towards Alyx and pull the stalker off of her.
Look left and punt off the door from the train and get the nade out as you go through the hole. (If we’re feeling awesome we should also consider priming it as we go through the hole.)
You must finish this map with atleast 110+ of suit+health!
So there’s my first attempt at a route plan. Tell me if there’s something I missed out mistakes. I could also make it a little less childing if necessary.

I got a 2:57, didn’t save it though. Did a TSA and got 2:54 with an imperfect combine fight and some messups with crouching. Perfect time around 2:52. I say we aim to sub 2:55.
I have no idea how you’re supposed to sprint towards Alyx on the train. It’s so narrow in there, even when you can see again the only way to move forward is to crouch, and that very slowly. No idea what you mean with “crouch & sprint” since that’s usually not possible, is it? I guess before I know that I don’t even need to continue running cause that’s where I lose all those seconds. I suggest we record a route demo for future maps. It’s way easier to understand what you’re exactly supposed to do. In this case it wouldn’t help much (since you can’t see anyway), but in general it’d be a lot runner-friendlier (!?)

Wow. That was quick. Yeah, I got a 2:52 with some imperfect TASing, so I figure it’s a good guide for normal play. Could we get a link to the demo, see if we think we can improve it at all?
Great run. I maybe think the last combine could’ve been killed a tiny bit quicker, but other than that I loved it. I admit to not really being knowledgeable or good enough at this map to make any judgment, so I’ll just go with what you guys suggest when we move on.
Right, everyone’s confirmed. We’re done with this map, well done niklas, 2:47. Might need to actually post it in the thread though. I’m sure Typical will update the topic with everything he needs to. <3<3<3, so long citadel!
