Stuck in Nova Prospekt
Can't seem to find my way out and nothing left to shoot. I got to the control room with the monitor showing various torture scenes, and unplugged the wire (changed from red to green). There was an auto-turret in the closet and power/medical stations, if that helps place me. I have spent quite some time wandering around and can't seem to escape/advance. I read one walkthrough that says after unplugging the cord the gates in the hall open, but they are still closed for me. Regardless, it appears I can just go around and get there anyway. I saw one post say that he was also stuck in the same place, that it was a glitch requiring him to skip the level, but he also said that the light stayed red when he pulled the plug. Am I caught ina known glitch and have to skip the rest of the level? Or is there something else I need to do to progress? Any insights would be most appreciated. Thanks.

It has been some time since I played this so forgive me if my memory fails me...

I think you are in a room which has a glass front looking down on an open area with gates each side. If I'm in the right place then there are also stairs leading up to the back of the control room from both sides. What I remember is that you will have to beat off a couple of waves of baddies, but I can't remember what triggers them. And if memory serves, once you have seen off the bad guys then Alex drops through a vent in the roof of the control room ? There may also be a hole in the glass to climb through to reach the next part of the game ?

It may well be that cutting the plug is the trigger. If so, then do you have any recent saves to go back to and see if you get more joy then ?

If I'm in totally the wrong place then please forgive me and may I suggest watching youtube videos to give a clue ?

Thanks Gents. It's past that part mbutton, but you have an excellent memory. I've read a couple walkthrus and still no joy (right section, wrong results). I will try the restarts, et al, Pepper then perhaps post a screen shot if I still can't figure it out. Best community ever.

After clearing the big room with the raised catwalks there is no door for the hunters to enter. Going through the control room with all the supplies I come upon three Combine soldiers then through two rooms with laser bombs leading to a room with energy balls going up and down and a turret in the back corner. The only egress from this room is an overhead duct. This leads me to a room with water flowing into it, the only way in is to jump down. There are combine locks on the only door. Escaping through a flooded tunnel/ sewer leads to another room with combine locks so I go through another smaller flooded sewer/tunnel to a room with several catwalks and a few head lice. Here my game ends as the only way out is an air duct that I cannot reach. My game does not resemble any of the many walkthroughs I have studied. What's up with that, eh?

dataman,
I don't know where the heck you are, but pretty sure it ain't in HL2 or HL2 Ep1, as far as I can remember the 1st time Hunters are encountered is in HL2 Ep2 Riding shotgun. As wordy as your post is, it offers little info as to what game/mod you may be playing.
