How come most of these things look sexier than ep 2?

High definition Textures and High polygon numbers.I think that Valve kinda worries about people not being able to run the game.

This doesn't look high poly to me:

This is quite an acurate mesh grid though.
The trick to make it look good is a good taste for colors, texturesharpness/smoothness and a sexy normalmap with shaders applied.
I wonder if we can make mods for this mod.

You can, but I have no clue why you would unless it magically used a newer source engine.
Apparently their trying to release multiplayer and singleplayer together.

In Half-Life, as far as everyone knew, they just wore regular combat armor. Opposing Forces needed an excuse for why Adrian could see his health, armor, and all that. So they took the armor, modified the design slightly, and called it the Powered Combat Vest. The Black Mesa devs don't see the PCV as canon, and have gone with the Pre-Opposing Force mentality of it just being standard military body armor.

Could you stop trying to show off by acting like you know everything about Half-Life? It's kind of annoying.
Hopefully the hype of this won't kill it when you play because it didn't turn out the way you wanted it. Doubt it, but still a possibility.
Is there website down right now? Twitter said they fixed up there wiki, but it's not loading for me.
Anyone else think the alien grunt looks kinda bad? It looks like his wearing kevlar combat armor or something, certainly not very in keeping with the look of xen surely?

Heh.
Yes it is relevant 'cause the snake dude has a Lambda symbol on his shirt :smug:

They wore some sort of futuristic combat armor in the original. You just couldn't tell what it was since it was a blocky mess of polys.
It's just the artist's interpretation I suppose.

I think he looks badass.

They said they did dozens of concept arts and models and they decided this was the best choice. It's not bad, but I wish the armor and face would look slightly different. But I guess it'll still be tough enemy.
And the Black Mesa's armor of the HECU was made much earlier than Modern Warfare 2. So the only thing they did was they got inspiration from real world just like Infinity Ward.
I wonder if Freeman's Mind will switch to BM when it realeases. That'd be pretty awesome.

Ross scott said he might switch over after Freeman gets knocked out
[QUOTE=mrcoolwhip;15764991]valve does script writing and crap like that.[/QUOTE]
Bullshit.
Man, people complain too much. Its not like the complaining is gonna do anything, anyway. The game/mod has been in development for years, so just accept how freakin' epic the alien grunts look.
Also, it would be weird if there was the transition to BM in Freeman's Mind. It just wouldn't fit in.
