highlanders Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 So if I understood correctly this is like a free improved HL1? 2480+ total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_Bogs Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Merely calling it an "improved HL1" or "HL1 in Source" is a little bit unfair to the creators of this mod. It's basically a complete re-imagining of the original, which adds a lot of cool little things, and you can see that they really put a lot of work into it all. At the same time, it does stay faithful to the original. Definitely enjoying it thus far. Downloaded it about eight hours ago, the torrent worked just fine and the entire download took me around 10 minutes. Keep in mind that you must also download the Source Base SDK 2007 through Steam for Black Mesa to work. Assuming you don't have either, it's a 6-7GB download. Feel bad for those who are stuck with shitty internet :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danqazmlp Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Been playing this today. Just launched the Rocker. The game is so good. It has small changes which keep the game fresh, but they seem very faithful to the spirit and feeling of the original. The game also feels so much more real, with must more unique interaction with the other characters, as well as the massively upgraded graphics. I'm honestly loving the game so far, and I think it's better than many games which cost money. Want to be my friend?

Danqazmlp Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Is anybody else finding this game MUCH harder than the original? I think with the advanced AI, the army is incredibly tough. I think I've been coddled by modern shooters too much, and i'm getting killed with an alarming frequency. The section shortly before 'Surface Tension' begins, just after all of the test chambers took me so many tries. The enemy flank me constantly and do a fair amount of damage. I'm now at the dam section and don't really seem to have found a solid tactic for killing them yet. Want to be my friend?

Bohemian Rhapsody Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 Yeah, i noticed that too. Worst part for me was when you fight that freakin heli, just after you find rocket launcher. I'm kinda worried about Xen part, where we're gonna face many alien grunts and vortigaunts.
