March, 2020... I am forgotten
Is it good?
Yeah. Zen is still bad though
Them delaying the final for real this time release, even if it was only for a day or so, killed off any momentum it might have had.
I'll probably play it next weekend for old times' sake; wait and see if there's going to be hotfixes to the hotfixes or something.
Doesn't matter. It's done. It's good. Could've been done faster, but the end result for us is a good game. Some people will discover it with 1.0 and that's good as well. Stop playing into hype, pre-orders and emotionally investing yourself in stuff like this and you'll live better.
>major overhaul
worth a replay
>xen release
new content
>1.0
final replay
Black Mesa is a piece of shit unfaithful remake.
It changes the music from the original game.
The feels of the guns and damage they do is different
The AI is completely different and can detect you instantly with sniper rifle accuracy. The damage the enemies deal if different from the original game.
Hard fucking pass.

Your telling me this isn't a 1:1 recreation of the original game and actually throw some curve balls in order to give a fresh experience to veteran Half Life players? Holy shit, sounds like one of those things called "remakes" if you ask me.
It's on top selling page you blindtard
It's shit.
Does it have Xen yet?
I remember "finishing" this when it was first released for free
Installed just to check it out, movement is shit, half life is boring shit.
Ah yes because the old environmental sounds and OST would definitly not feel completely out of place in t a modern remake
Joel Nielsen's work gave Black Mesa an awesome soundtrack to go with, stop crying cause your autistically stunted brain can't handle the slightest change
It's all out, up to and including nihilanth.
>can’t even spell Xen
Fuck off
Black Mesa is honestly better than HL1 in some ways. Crowbar collective did a really great job of bringing interest to an old school game and story.
>Ascension
There are very few words to describe how amazing this is.
Black mesa music is better
AI also is way better
why play black mesa today if in 10 years someone else will remake it? hmm?
You can sense the fear the controllers are experiencing when Freeman ascends up the elevator and they all focus their attention on him. In the earlier chapter Lambda Core, they even go out of their way to leave their dimension just to prevent him from entering. This part in the game is when they all realise its too late and throw all the shit his way but to no avail. Also, it's really satisfying to kill these flying fuckers while they let out that god awful screech.
>Make it to the end
>They desperately pull the elevator back down for a last attempt
>mfw
>AI also is way better
Disabling those alien controllers are annoying, however with this intense music, gives me hope.
I want to fuck the milf scientists
if anybody still cares bout xen, they should just play Destiny 2, which curbs the fuck out of BMS pathetic attempts at updating the locales for contemporary audience
Damm right you are.
This is why you don't get invited to parties and you impose yourself on others to go.
I refunded after an hour of playing.
>Game kept crashing.
>constant pausing for loading
>Scientists had constant clipping issues and all wear the same exact tie is immersion breaking.
>Gunplay was ok at best
>crates breaking bad really bad animation
I refunded after an hour of playing. the reviews are clearly from nostalgia
All of them have to wear those ridiculous ties.
>Crates breaking bad really bad animation
What drugs are you on to formulate a sentence like that
>Game kept crashing.
>constant pausing for loading
What is your spec PC?
My damm toaster can play that game perfectly fine.
>I refunded after an hour of playing. the reviews are clearly from nostalgia
That expla-
>crates breaking bad really bad animation
Explain? Got any good animation more than damm crates?
No shit millennial.
Thank god, this thread is filled with shills for this absolute trash.
>WTF people are excited about a HL?
>That's impossible, they must be shills!
Fuck off.
What the fuck this is for sale now?
I got it for free when it came out
Is it still free for me?
For a while I thought that shills are people who make daily threads, and throw their opinions down our throat. But lately, I realised that shill is basically anyone who has a different opinion.
So... thanks for enlightening me, I guess? But please, be present in every Half Life related thread, even if you don't plan on buying the game, and shit on us people who will be playing it and, surprisingly (for you) have fun while doing it.
Is paid Black Mesa much different from the free one? I thought the free one got rid of way too much fun stuff because it wasn't "realistic" I think the Xen artstyle is a bit overwrought too, it loses a lot of the atmosphere. I hate to be one of those"old good new bad" people, but the way Nihilanth looks in the remake is fucking lame
Can I do this in Black Mesa?
Theres big differences between the free version and sold version
>implying you can do this at all, in any game
I didn't think it *looked* stupid, but fighting it was more dull than anything else.
I kinda dislike how Nihilanth looks, though, and fighting him was more of a chore than a joy too.
Can I still get the free version?
Black Mesa has its many own speedruning gamebreaks

i like some of the tracks but HYAAAA lady being in every song gets a little old
When I listen to Xen soundtrack. I get really into and start imagining things wildly, do other people do this?
youtube.com
Best Xen soundtrack coming right through
the end of ascension reprise is when kill the final wave of controllers...mega kino. made the rest of the tedium worth it.
I'm at chapter 7
gameplay is shit but I keep going for the story
Deathmatch feels janky and soulless.
Agreed, it made sense for her to accompany Gonarch battle (still would prefer instrumental versions), but she should have shut the fuck up with Gargs, ruined a good song.
The game does a pretty good job in general of giving your presence weight. Like when the scientists acknowledge that you wiped out a room of highly trained soldiers by yourself.
I like how the Scientists appear to be tracking your progress through Xen, and when they read your coordinates in the Gonarch's lair you suddenly see cache upon cache upon cache filled with rockets being teleported in. I like to imagine they're having a minor panic attack back at Lambda when that happens.
So are controllers babby nihilanths?
I think they're adults. They're clearly the ones calling the shots in the entire operation Nihilanth has going on
half life 1 has aged very well and probably better than half life 2, no reason to play this over the original
I still don't get how source engine NPCs skip their walking animations when you tap their head with a prop
