Discovered it today while i was doing the game in hard for the first time... i did not want to have manhacks against me so i worked hard to avoid all of it.

When you are using the unnarmed boat and you get to the "fort" that closes its doors when you get near, i found a way.. or rather created my own way to go directly to the control tower without having to fight the chopper and all the combines (a total of 6 combines to kill with my way) !

we dont have to fight the chopper because we dont have to get to the scripted area that make it come.

this is quite long and hard but it worked.

I just get in the area, go to the "locked" door, kill the 3 combines here, get all 3 barrels, the chair, the little box AND the big wooden crate (just outside of the room, push it, be patient.) to the sewer pipe under the first combine soldier outside (kill him too)

The goal is to build a "tower" to climb on it and be able to jump over the fence that lead directly to the control tower.

How it worked for me:

i pushed the big wooden box to the right of the sewer pipe as close as i could without damaging it, placed a single vertical barrel on it. (the angle is quite bad here but the barrel can stay in position if you are doing everything slowly)
jump on the box, then on the barrel. Then take as much speed as possible and jump/crouch where the ledge is a bit lower. If done correctly you have done it on the upper ledge near the corpse of the combine, just go to the tower, send the two other combines in heaven and get out of there as slowly as you want since the copter will not be here at all until the next loading zone.

i hope it is clear enough.. my english is not perfect.

I hope this will help you guys.

It take skill and courage to kill 30 furious combines, a crazy copter and a couple of bloodthirsty manhacks.
It take patience to avoid 30 furious combines, a crazy copter and a couple of bloodthirsty manhacks.
 
Hmm... nice find. But I think following the old routine is much more easier and less time consuming. anyway, i'll try that...

I quite agree with Sid Burn.Why waste your time.

assuming this is at Gate 5 - back the boat up to the gap in the railing, climb up the boat to the walkway, go to the tower, kill the 2 combys in the tower, and you are on your way - easiest shortcut for here
 
Sounds like a similar thing to people avoiding the forcefield on the bridge. Time consuming too.

Yeah, I've done that. It's perfect.
