Black Mesa Source

Got past that now and i'm onto the rail network. I do love the mod, but the jump and ladder mechanics are a load of steaming faeces and in my opinion need patching.

Just because the original had the same issues doesn't mean they should be preserved.

I ran for my life in the blast pit, didn't know you could distract it.

Lmao.
Zen headcrabs + zombies civilised.


I do hope this modding community, continues to get the support to complete BlackMesa.
An considers reworking Blue-Shift + Appossing Force.
The quality of BM, seems to better that of HL2, an its episodes imo.
 
I discovered that if your fast enough, you can save the scientist thats mowed down by the first soldier you see. Its quite funny, he says "good gracious, I do believe he was trying to kill me!" :D

I wonder if it was possible to save the guy in the original.

Is Black Mesa not the full Half Life 1 then? Or am I miss understanding what you mean here?

No, apparently its not 100% complete.
Doesn't have zen levels (Concluding story arch) an they plan on releasing Death Match Maps (Multiplayer).
I hope the mod creators, now have the positive inspiration, to complete BM, an then seriously consider reworking the HL expansions.
They where great in there own right, but never as good as Half-Life.
 
Ah ok. Still get to play far further than I originally got when I first played it! Couldn't get past the creature in the blast pit all those years ago!
 
Is it not worth waiting until they've got Zen to play through it?
I've never completed Half Life.............................................................

I've er... Only... Ever..... Played...... About.... 30 minutes..

I was a filthy console peasant until about 2009.
 
I had to put god mode on to get past blast pit, always had problems with those things. Even when crawling and throwing grenades in the other direction they still kill me.

I just ran around in circles blasting things with the shotgun/gluon gun. I found the last room absolutely killed my PC I had to drop all the settings to low after playing the rest of the game on high. Even then it was laggy as hell. Anyone else get the same problem?
 
Soooooooooo awesome!!

Loved the 'Oh you cut the pony tail - such a sellout' line at the beginning :)

Was there a giant fridge in the original?

Built up a crew of 6 people, then had to leave them behind :(
 
Has anyone playing it on hard managed to get past the assassins? I'm finding it impossible, may have to drop the difficulty level for this bit :(

Hardest bit in the original... Every play though required trying to corner one and then slowly avoiding the others till you can murder each one in turn...

No idea what they are like in this one (yet)
