Black Mesa V6 - 'Not sure about the shotgun'-edition - Games

It still really irks me that Black Mesa doesn't have weapon sway when walking (you might include it in your pack, but the base game doesn't have them either)

it's a singleplayer title. it's not exactly difficult to wait for it. it's not like some MP title where you just crave for the update whilst playing everyday

No, I remember Juniez saying that he would release it after Xen so he wouldn’t need to fix it immediately when the update breaks everything

my bad, I thought you meant xen in general and not juniez's pack

These weapons are just oozing with charm, none of the Black Mesa weapons stuck well with me.

I don't know why, but hl1 weapons do have a really good charm. That's where hl2 failed

I disagree, I quite like Half-Life 2's selection. The only issue is that it could have been more varied.

HL2 weapons have their own kind of charm, just not in the cartoonish and robust way HL1 weapons were.

They should have kept the SLAM. HL2 has more defense scenarios than HL1 so the tripmines and satchel were a little less handy.

Yeah the SLAM is fully functional, no reason for them to cut it. Tau Cannon should have been given to you in Kleiner's Lab, so as to give the C17 chapters their own gimmick weapon.

All I am saying is there is no sense of uniqueness, besides the gravity gun and bug bait. Also the weapons are extremely plastic, especially the shotgun. Don't even get me started on the smg. The crossbow is alright though.

The SMG is one of my favorites.

I heard on the game side there are one or two animations to be tweaked. On the other hand I was previously using https://forums.blackmesasource.com/index.php/Thread/28859-I-m-gonna-need-about-tree-fiddy/ as the revolver mesh, but I didn't feel too good about using other people's things so I'm making a drop in replacement for it now.

That and Game Zombie's going to need to wait for xen to see if they use the new rig for the HEV admire on anything else

The sounds, oh the sounds. They added so much more than I expected. Super eager for the final product. Yeah, I do think it could stand to be a little less reflective.

I thought the video was Half-Life: Source for a second based on the thumbnail and was confused

Can't wait for that Loot Me$a update.

Could have posted some context http://steamcommunity.com/games/362890/announcements/detail/1670147565653799331

Looks like one of the factory levels.

They're bringing back the colors option from Half-Life? Awesome!

Quick april update: Black Mesa

^ Been following this mod for a long ass time and it feels weird that finally we're almost at the end. Dead excited to play it

It's been somewhere around ten years since this thing first got announced, so to see a complete version is heartwarming as fuck

These guys have worked through the entire lifespan of the Source Engine. Think about that. They started the HL1 Source Improvement Mod(s) in 2004, and now they're looking to be the last commercial game on the engine, which now they've made their own enhanced version of. It's hard to tell they're using an engine derived from Half-Life 2 at times. This is Source's swan song, and we're getting close to the end. If you thought it was pretty back in 2012, I think Xen is going to blow us away with the new lighting engine. Cheers, CC. <3

Yesssssssssssss I hate that they're responsible enough to not slip out an expected release date with this news, but this is it boys. We're about to finally see a full remake of Half-Life 1 on the source engine. It's going to be glorious. valve please start an arg for half life 3 and slip it in to the new bm update it'd work so well

After so many years what we already have was definitely worth the wait so I can't imagine how the whole thing will feel with Zen

I just hope it comes out in 2018.
