Great googly moogley! I can't wait.

Looks actually pretty good. But wasn't the "soon" also mentioned many many many months ago?

Nice to see the magnum is still a railgun in disguise

 

[Baaja]

How close was this to the original when looking at gameplay and environment? Aside from being HQ

 

[Deverz]

As far as I know they are trying to stick to original but there is some artistic licence involved

 

[Specht]

I don't know... I used to be so excited about this project. But after so long I'm losing interest, maybe because even Source is outdated now...

 

[Deverz]

Source is plently up to date

It's always being worked on

 

[Plakman]

Source lacks graphical you can't ignore that...
dx10/11 support is becoming a must now, for sure with the new consoles being announced.
But then again there is source 2 comming up to.

Also like specht said it took to damn long without news updates.
And now it's like meh, old news... just tell me the progress instead...

 

[DaRkOwNs]

Yeah, but there's something about the...I dunno, "flow" of source that I preferred over games like Halo and CoD's Havok (I think) engine. It was the same with the original. HL1 somehow made running through an infested military base very fluid and natural.

The video posted is down, so I included what I believe to be the video.

This looks rad.

 

[Plakman]

Idk i think they kinda messed up...
the camera moving as he moves left and right sucks...
The sounds coulda be better.
The hit icon coulda been done nicer.

Even the esf team has amazed me a lot more than this tbh...
Oh well ... someone will port the stuff i guess ^^

 

[Deverz]

It's officially coming out (sort of) Sept 14

I'm not going to check if this is true, but word on the street is that it's not the complete game. It won't feature Xen and some other level since they're still working on it.

 

[Deverz]

Hence the sort of

also the article says it's incomplete

http://www.blackmesasource.com/ front page count down

Also their forums have crashed lol

 

[macdaddymario]

Need to play through HL1 again first. When they first announced it, it was said to be a total remake, which is exactly what I want. Lets hope they deliver exactly that.

HALF-LIFE MARATHON, HERE I COME!!!!

Black Mesa is making news everywhere

 

[macdaddymario]

"The Black Mesa team has also edited the storyline to beef up the more engaging parts of the game and eliminate the slower parts." Ugh.. not a full remake, shame.

 

[Deverz]

They've said for ages it's not 100% HL1 about 90% I think I read somewhere

 

[DaRkOwNs]

I can only imagine Valve glowing with pride...or rage. But probably pride.
