hl2- need help on part where first helicopter shows up

[Diesel]

i don't know what to do, the helicopter rips me a new one, i've explored the tunnel complex in the area but nothing new, just the two doors coming out of the tunnel complex and that combine helicopter outside. where do i go from here?

If it is the spot where I am thinking of, where you get blocked by a closed gate on the "jet ski", then what you want to do is work your way to the watchtower. There are 2 mounted guns in the tower and you use them to shoot at the Helicopter. It will eventualy fly off and leave you alone. Hope that helps.

I think I know where you are...here are some tips

As you emerge from the tunnel you will be discovered by the helicopter. It will turn and sweep left - follow it down the slippery slope. Time to take evasive action

Now...

Once you slide down into the wreckage strewn area you cannot retrace your steps. Furthermore - the helicopter hovers before attacking you (note the change in sound and when you hear the guns spinning up - head for cover behind anything you can find that offers substantial cover).

You now have to sprint ( you will take a few hits) - sprint to the barricade behind the dead-end pool of water. Collect items here and you now have a straight run to your next shelter.

This shelter is a concrete piece of rubble protruding from the ground at the inlet junction. Depending on the helicopter position - you can hide behind the rubble. Now dash onto the bank to the blue door with barrels near it. Get there by running along the lip of the wall, across the wooden plank and onto the railing.

There is no time now to remove the barrels so hide behind them for the first salvo of helo fire. After this salvo - act fast and get rid of the barrels, enter through the door into the corridor.

Now move slowly here and enjoy

There are 2 tunnels that lead out which are adjacent to eachother correct? they are slippery wiht thos rope baddies that drag you up allover right? well on the left side of thes econd one (loking out)is a door you cna go through to get yourself much closer to the area you are heading for.

Just don't let yourself slid outside is the deal if you don't find it still I'll take a few ss's for ya bud
