Well since people requested it (including me) and it hasn't been done yet, I decided to separate the Half-Life achievements by game myself using Pyroman's guide. It will be more than one post. Hope this helps, and if I screwed up or if something needs to be added, let me know. I am not taking credit for these, just putting them in an order that seems better. If not let me know. Good job with the guide Pyro.

 

These are not necessarily chronological, but separated by what you see in the start menu (includes secret achievements).

 

 

Half-Life 2 Achievements:

5 http://live.xbox.com/xweb/lib/images/G_Icon_External.gifHit the trashcan cop with the can.

 

Just like submissive but just a little different. At the beginning of the game after talking to barney you will meet a combine soldier blocking your way and wanting you to pick a can that he knocked on the floor. Just pick up the can and throw it at him instead of throwing it in the trash.

Easily done in the Chapter called Route Kanal. Awhile into the chapter you will come to a guy on a turret, take him out and follow the path into the muddy tunnel ahead. Once in there you will soon come to a tunnel with MANY barnacles in one spot and a explosive barrel right next to you. Simply shoot the barrel until it's on fire, then make it roll down into their line things and it will bring it up and it will soon explode.

Here is a nice video showing the exact location of this guy in the very end of Water Hazard. But instead of using a modded weapon(like he did), just park the airboat under it and climb on it and jump up.

25 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpgPlay through Ravenholm using only the Gravity Gun.

 

Might sound alittle tough but it's not all that hard. Just keep finding saw blades, barrels, boxes, and anything else to pick up and shoot at enemies. If you stuck on a rooftop with no items to pickup and are being chased by enemies, just run from them...You can pull out other weapons but you just can't hit the Right Trigger. Even if you swing the crowbar to open boxes it will count as using another weapon.

5 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpgDestroy six gunships in Half-Life 2.

 

These ships are easier taken out by Rockets. It takes about 4-5 rockets to take one down. You have the entire game to do this so you should get it eventually. Once you kill any of them, a little popup will show your progress(1/6, 2/6, etc.)

20 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpgCross the antlion beach in chapter Sandtraps without touching the sand.

 

Sorta difficult. When you come to the beach where you have to cross the sand that is infested with Antlions, find anything of use and use the gravity gun to make your own little pathway across the sand. If you happen to mess up, just reload an autosave and start again. The achievement will unlock, if done right, as you are on the hill RIGHT before the little battle with the Antlion Guard.

In Episode 1 or 2, there will be zombies who used to be Combine soldiers. When they pull out a grenade, just use the gravity gun to take it away from them.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/308/-mk5ag==.jpgZombie-que

5 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpgUse flares to light 15 zombies on fire.

 

Easiest place is in the parking garage in Episode 1, right around when the lights go out waiting for the elevator. Plenty of zombies, a good few flares. The flares are usually lying on the ground. When you pick them up they will light automatically.

The stalkers that you can't kill are the two that are below the core. They are the bony skinny looking guys. Just don't kill them and shoot the energy balls in the opener things. Be quick because these guys disable them right after. When the core is contained and your gravity gun goes back to its original self, the achievement will unlock.

Just try and take all the bullets that are fired at them and shoot back. Not quite that hard but will be a burden when one dies and you have to start over.

40http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpgBeat Episode One firing exactly one bullet. Grenade, crowbar, rocket, and Gravgun kills are okay!

 

Save the bullet for a lock later in the game. There is a lock that you need to break and shooting it is the only way. The lock is in the room you get pistol and shotgun on the "Lowlife" level on Episode One.

Little harder if you are trying to get the gnome to the rocket. The gnome doesn't like to stay in the car if you are going fast...

Keep the gnome with you until you get to the White Forrest Base and place it in the rocket with Lamarr. You must close the door after you place the Gnome inside the Rocket with Lamarr. The achievement will unlock once the door is closed.

aren't quick.

Props for sorting the guide out! Anyways, how can I easily get the Conservationist achievement? I try but its very hard. MAybe i might be doing it wrong.

 

This one was a matter of luck for me, but I thought about where it might be easily possible, where a large group of combines come out together, and I knew in the last part of the game, when Breen is in that ball thing. At then end of the game in the chapter "Dark Energy", when Breen is trying to escape, simply get up to the part where there are three energy ball fields separated by panes of glass, take out one of the balls and then turn around and look back at the hallway entrance to your left once you have turned around. From this hallway, there will be a group of 7-6 combines, make sure to shoot it as soon as you see the first one, because they spread out more as they move.

How lucky is this! I'm just starting HL2 and I find this great guide. Thanks for putting it together in this easy to read format. And thanks to pyro for doing the legwork.

 

Edit: This deserves a sticky imo. I realize it's the same as the achievement guide, but could be useful for many people that want to play through the game with the achievements ordered this way.

I got the Conservationist achievement on the rooftop after you kill the last gunship (unlocked the One Man Army achievement then) where the enemy lands in a dropship then drops the bridge across. If you cross the bridge some guys will swarm out and I used the alternate fire on the alien assault rifle to kill them. I had to try it a few times but I did get it there. Probably not the easiest place to get it as others have pointed out.

 

Great work on organizing the guide.

 

I had a hell of a time getting the 2 point shot achievement. The ball went through the hoop but for some reason it wasn't counting it. When you get it you will see a green light go off on the backboard. I backed up about 4/5th of the way to the wall and shot. Had to try it like 30 times.

hate to sound like a prick... but

 

a couple of achievements are not game specific, and probably should be put under a different heading...

 

things like "hack attack", "bone breaker", "trusty hardware" can all be gotten in ANY of the games (not 100% sure about hack, need manhacks for that :p)

 

as i said... just being a bit of a "order nazi" but its just a thought

get in close to a group of soldiers and shoot your energy ball - the second you shoot it, draw it back in. just LT, RT, LT, RT, etc. i got it without really even trying.

there's a spot in Episode One where a million rain down on you in an outside viaduct. just grab one of the last ones and use it like a chainsaw on your future soldiers.

 

Does this work for the first Half Life 2 game list??? I haven't started esp 1 or 2 yet as I want to finish all the achievements for each game before moving on, but if this works I will

I haven't opened my copy of the game yet, just because I wanted to find something like this - looks great!

 

A few questions however (please answer):

 

1. Are they also in order of when you have to look out for them / will receive them? I mean the episode ordering is a decent bit of help, but if I have to keep my eye on each achievement for that episode anyway, it would get confusing.

 

2. Can you put the ones that you have to look out for for the entire game at the very beginning (such as collectibles)?

 

3. How long is episode one? I want to do it for fun the first time, using bullets then another time for that last achievement.
