Honestly, in the original game was it always THIS FREAKIN HARD TO JUMP ONTO A SIMPLE STUPID BLOODY BOX!?!?!?!?!

Just checking

I can't remember exactly, but I think there was a bit with a random bottomless pit and you had to jump from one suspended crate to another. Took me a while.

I think jump then crouch seemed to do the trick

Yep, that's the key and you even get taught how to do it in tutorial. Duck jump and you're sorted.

You playing the original HL, or HL:Source? I know the new physics they put in with Source actually made the crouch jump not quite so high.

Black Mesa Source is coming this year (approx).

Full conversion mod of HL1.

Looks goood

Naffa · 25 Feb 2009 at 20:25

It's just called 'Black Mesa' now. No Source.

Source.. And yeah i read about the mavity value being changed. I've lowered it a tiny amount now just to make life easier. Wish i'de thought of that at the start and not just before reaching the Lambda complex!

I wasn't into PC gaming at all when this was released, but i'm still struggling to see why Half Life 2 was so anticipated.. Maybe i've just been spoilt by how good some of the more recent games are.
