Black Mesa Source V5 - "They're still working on Xen?" - Games

The Black Mesa incident occurred on May 16th, not to get hopes up.

[QUOTE=Cows Rule;47638005]The Black Mesa incident occurred on May 16th, not to get hopes up.[/QUOTE] Well the 16th isn't a Tuseday. Not that it means anything, but most things are released on Tuesdays in the Americas The countdown is correct on my end, its telling me it will end on the 5th, at 11:47AM, which is 8:47AM Mountain time.

They've fixed the timer, it's now the same for all time zones. The timer ends on[B] May 5th at 8:47 AM MDT[/B].

Well, we did have their webmaster in our thread when it was first posted, Hubicorn. He probably saw that. [editline]1st May 2015[/editline] I don't think Tuesday is the release. It just seems too soon, there has been no announcement. Perhaps it is a trailer.

I think they're gonna announce the release date or at the very least release a trailer.

23 new posts, and I was not disappointed

[QUOTE=Bloodshot12;47638514]23 new posts, and I was not disappointed[/QUOTE] Rare for this thread.

I just forgot everything. Steam-release with xen? or no?

No Xen yet.

The PS2 Manual for HL1 has Gordon's employment letter, it is marked May 5th.

I wonder how much unnecessary internet strife the devs are going to get over the retail release because ARGH PAID MODS, even with the free version.

[QUOTE=TextFAMGUY1;47639083]No Xen yet.[/QUOTE] Are you serious about that [editline]1st May 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=The Kins;47639981]I wonder how much unnecessary internet strife the devs are going to get over the retail release because ARGH PAID MODS, even with the free version.[/QUOTE] Valve got rid of those

[QUOTE=Pigbear;47640001]Are you serious about that [/QUOTE] He is, there was a huge post pages ago (from him) about Xen. [url]http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1266077&p=47448830&highlight=#post47448830[/url]

[QUOTE=Tuskin;47640049]He is, there was a huge post pages ago (from him) about Xen. They've been busy making sure the game is all ported to the new engine and all that.[/QUOTE] I think they have the wrong priorities if they do DM before xen

[QUOTE=Pigbear;47640054]I think they have the wrong priorities if they do DM before xen[/QUOTE] I edited my post. read what I linked.

[QUOTE=Pigbear;47640001]Valve got rid of those[/QUOTE]I know that. You know that. Reddit? Not that massive on the whole knowing things thing.

been vaguely aware for some time that some BM devs post here but i just wanted to say: your guy's art was so authentic to HL1's vibe and such high quality that it blew my mind when i first played. like, you guys nailed the liminal 1990s realist scifi that HL1 vibed at to you more than it could illustrate with its low res textures. like, even gameplay aside, the artistic judgements you guys went through in translating HL1 to HD are nothing short of sophisticated. like, the environments feel so studied, idk if that makes sense. still probably the best mod i've ever played in terms of its art assets, which really did it for me. people have probably kissed your ass like this before but there's another pat on the back for ye

[QUOTE=Kaleidescoop;47641231]Wait, Black Mesa comes out on May 5th? That's my birthday![/QUOTE] That hasn't been confirmed. All we know is there is a countdown to the 5th. No info on what it is. [editline]1st May 2015[/editline] Plus bkdale86 is still working on and releasing model pictures. Unless that is some sort of cover.

[QUOTE=Tuskin;47639341]The PS2 Manual for HL1 has Gordon's employment letter, it is marked May 5th.[/QUOTE] The PC manual for Blue Shift had an application letter for a job as a security guard at Black Mesa. When I was a kid I legit thought it was real and filled it out.

Some dude on [URL="http://forums.blackmesasource.com/index.php/Thread/27849-Countdown-on-the-BM-website/?postID=606478#post606478"]BM forums[/URL] posted this of BM trading cards and the others aswell.

The Vortigaunt is the old one and not the EP2 one used in BM :/ Unless they went back to the old version for the Steam release.

So how much will Black Mesa cost again? I keep forgetting.

I think it's $10 but don't quote me Damn, I just love the atmosphere in the gasworks wallpaper

They've never given a price. [url]http://forums.blackmesasource.com/index.php/Thread/17088-Happy-Birthday-Half-life/[/url] Here it says "Relatively low price" So I guess $15-20 USD Tho this thread was posted 2 years ago, things could have changed.
