Charger testing

[SlamageEntertainment]

WHY WON'T YOU JUST RELEASE A BETA OR DEMO!!!???

[Appo47]

Nice! How did you do that?

[tikizip]

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL

[serioussascha]

Make a Animation for this

[MeGaEdIIToRMaN]

They're should make it like in the PlayStation 2 half life version... You see how the charger is connected to the suite and then starts charging..

[zadhytia]

when is black mesa released the game?

[Berniebud]

@zadhytia When is BMS going to be released? No one knows. Not even the creators.

[rafa1326]

At a glance i thought that this was some "TF2" leaked feature.

[Braexi]

You thougt this game is still allive? Nope Chuck Testa ;D

[xsantosis]

I hope this mod finally come out on the year 2012

[TheSoldiersMind]

@xsantosis Still no -.-

[OytalFlyFrag]

Is this mod ever coming? Is it dead?

[G3org3Master]

@OytalFlyFrag It is not dead. They just are not releasing media, as they are busy making the mod.

[OytalFlyFrag]

@G3org3Master Great :) You know how long they have comed in the creation of the mod? cant wait :D

[msanimation2]

I like the new HUD.

[pyziroki]

Gabe Newell used to tolerate mods... then he took black mesa to the knee.

P.S. BECAUSE OF MY JOKE HALF-LIFE 2 EP3, HALF-LIFE 3 and HALF-LIFE: BLACK MESA ARE DELAYED FOR 36 YEARS

P.P.S. WORTH THE WEIGHT!

[Briggsman1000]

@pyziroki black mesa isn't made by valve. valve has 0% part in the mod

[pyziroki]

@Briggsman1000 I used to answer ikr but then I took an arrow in the knee

[legoaaaaa2000b]

you know its a really good mod because there taking as long as valve would

[mstrchldrn]

what the hell is taking so long? valve oughta get involved and speed up production.

[miniJD0]

@mstrchldrn valve speeding up production ha

[naitsabex]

>recent updates

>666 days

:O!!!



[AZIlluminati08]

happy turkey day assholes!

[Tozhg]

Omg, this mod is teh biggest tease.

[VannahWilson]

Seems to be working fine. SO Y U NO RELEASE?? *cries*

Why is this their most recent twitter update on their website? Oh dear.

[jackofblades94]

Is this game...coming out at all?

*plays video*

Nope.avi

[sosotabbo]

At least they give some information about the game and we know that they have to to adjustement to lambda core.

Unlike Valve who won't give a fucking clue of what they're doing until they finish.

Black Mesa <3

[georgecz]

@sosotabbo well, you realize the video has been uploaded almost 2 years ago, right? :)

[sosotabbo]

@georgecz I know. but i meant, they give infos on the wiki, so that we know the mod is still alive. For Episode Three/HL3 we have no single piece of information, they said "right after the orange box, we'll focus on episode three" And then they released L4D, L4D2,Portal 2, Dota 2, CS: global offensive... but we still know nothing about the next HL...

[ZombieBiteAction]

Probly never gonna realise in my age time line ...

are they dead?

[Postal2AWP3355]

wHat Game?

[sonicdsfan1]

@Postal2AWP3355 -.-

[tehb0xn00b]

I like it how after 1 new upload all the other video's are getting more views, and comments.

[SonicAngel2020]

It really is completely ridiculous the release time on this game... Building the Chinese wall didn't take this long...

[readiteatit]

old school like the old school.

[TheAntiVector]

Okay, now it's a race.

Can you guys finish Black Mesa before Valve finishes HL3?

Oh, wait. there's a third contestant:

the snail in my backyard. Thumbs up if your bets are on the snail.

[KaollaTheSu2]

...Those HEV charger looks a little weird. Aren't there a front plate for that one already i half life 2?

[d0zin0Cs]

You have to be really fucking retarded if you're using more than 5 fuckin' years making a mod, I mean, they're not making an engine for the game, they're just remaking levels and shit like that, and some other things.

[Souldestroy199]

@d0zin0Cs Yes, but you must remember that this is done in their free time, when their not busy with work, school, or even children. I do think it's still ridiculous that its taking this long, though.

[d0zin0Cs]

@Souldestroy199 Yeah, but then they shouldn't even have thought about creating this mod, if they have that fucking little free time. They have made a whole lot of people excited about this mod, meaning they should have planned their time a bit more. This mod has officially become similar to the wait of a real game.

[Souldestroy199]

@d0zin0Cs Hate to break it to you, but that's pretty much every mod's development. Mods generally take even longer than games to come out due to the small amount of people working on it. In BMS's case, there are currently 10 people working on it. Just be glad it got this far, as due to the amount of effort it takes to make mods, most are abandoned.

[marc2377]

@Souldestroy199 The team is about 40 people atm.

[Stairmaster9068]

@Souldestroy199

that doesn't excuse them making up fake release dates

[Souldestroy199]

@Stairmaster9068 I don't think 2009 itself is a date, now is it? More of a hopeful release window, if you ask me.

[oobievision]

@d0zin0Cs Tell me about it what happ to EP3

[KevinJRattman]

Remember : All good projects will dead earlier than bad projects. It is unknown why.

[barlobe]

Went on their site and saw an recent update! Its only 614 days old! Yippee Wippee

[bbriiannz]

When will this be done?

TF2 Medic: I HAVE NO IDEA!!

[YouKnow381195]

@bbriiannz TF2 Medc: Later.

[thinkindie16]

God dammit, now I'm reminding of Half-Life and have to start a new playthrough, only to get extremely pissed off at the incredibly tough marines and quit for the ­∞th time...

[SuperBeautifulNoise]

Episode 3 and maybe even Half-Life 3 will be out before this mod.

[musicOpath1q]

@SuperBeautifulNoise U certainly right dude .. i'm started to think only 2 pple are working on that mod compare to 60 for Ep 3 and HL3 ;)

[mistbooster]

@musicOpath1q actually currently all epi3 development is halted, say thanx to the fags who wanted dota2 from valve.

[Awgez24]

Very accurate recreation, even keeping true to Valve's release schedule.

[edbo10]

Black Mesa Source...coming out this Christmas...

...VALVE TIME.

[Will6753]

@edbo10 A.K.A never



[megaman6974]

@edbo10 Nope

[therandomexample]

I think this source is pulling a duke nukem.. It looked fucking awesome when it was first in making, but the let the trailer go too soon, so all their fuck ups and revisions delayed the final release, and all interest went straight down the shitter.

Also, the phrase "pulled a Duke Nukem" is patent pending.

[megalomaniacalHalide]

@therandomexample and then it was a massive financial success, despite the fact the game was absolute trash when it came out.

[therandomexample]

@megalomaniacalHalide Well yes, but that's more because of all the pre-orders people had from 10+years ago.

[TheGunslingerReborn]

Comes out.....it's out of date.

[labobo]

ah this sound effects takes me back

good times..it's still a good game :)

[Uriel6178]

alright guys, MARK YOUR CALENDERS! june 6th 2029

[trechan]

@Uriel617 ALMOST THERE, ONLY A COUPLE MORE YEARS.

[ervinasroblox3]

@Uriel6178 I dont have 2029,it ends on 2012 :(

IT'S ALIVE!

IT'S ALIVE!

[kledder2]

This project is never coming out. I wouldn't be surprised if the whole thing is just one big joke.

[PowerGamingFTW]

@kledder2 Most of the devs have 800+ hours on Source so there still working on it

[CarlNorwaydude]

Can't wait... Hope they fixed the boss's lower body, was grose enough in HL1.

I.C. Wiener :3

[AndreyRus95]

I don't know if this information will calm people down, but that's what I have found in Dev's blog. 6May/114 Bm General Statistics Black Mesa SVN repository statistics Last Svn Purge: 5th of April 2011 All values are Approximate. Also, an revision can range from a single character in a single text file to several hundred megabytes worth of content. Uncompressed Build Size: 9.05 gb Average Weekly Commits: 25 Average Weekly Files Changed: 265 Last Commit Revision: 20380 File Count: 35000

[ENDORPHINSAM]

Hey, all you dummehs. Check the site, they added more pictures and stuff. Which means they ARE working on it. And I'm pretty sure I saw a thread saying we "should expect something soon.. something very soon". They also added some easter eggs to the site. try to find them, they are funny-as-mother-fuck

[fuglypump]

it's not dead if you look hard enough, the game is playable all the way through, they're polishing and running full playthrough testing now.

[Masterlink981]

This is really dead. It's SO sad. Really, I hate when good mods die. Because this had POTENTIAL. I officialy call Black Mesa.... Black Mesa Forever. Because it's taking FOREVER. When is this going to be released? June 14th, 2018??? God by that time Source will be very old. So will HL2.

[Blue2becool]

@Masterlink981 ITS STILL ALIVE LOOK ON THE YOUTUBE PAGE

[Masterlink981]

@Blue2becool Ok.... whatever YOU say. *looks on Youtube Page* I don't see anything new.

[Blue2becool]

[Rokimoki]

sweeeeeeeeeet

[brad96920]

by the time this comes out it will probably like freaking half life 1 all over again :/

[EyeoftheU]

I think you should all know that the chargers have drastically changed design since the release of this video. See oggyart(dot)com for the newest version of the chargers.

[deadsource]

I heard somewhere that Black Mesa mod was bought by VALVe. That would explain why everything is "dead".

[786Puffy]

The last Twitter update was Jan 27 2010. It has been more then a year and a half since any updates have happend. I would say that the Mod is 100% dead, but if that was the case than who the dam is keeping the site up? It must take a massive amount of money to keep that site going.

[deadsource]

@786Puffy You can keep such a website for one dollar :D

[capo2k8]

You know what, it doesn't matter if it's officially dead or not. If no information is given and people are returned "when it's done" for a release date, people get nothing. May as well not have a website or any publicity. In fact, the public would be better off not knowing it's in development. At least then it'd be a nice suprise. Basically, for all intents and purposes, it's as good as dead. May never be released. And no-one would care anyway, only be annoyed.

[SamzaNemesis]

old school like the old school.

575 days ago

[riperchetobg]

valve bought them. expect the game to come out after episode 3

[TheGrandTheftshit]

@riperchetobg LOL ? So goodbeye Black Mesa Source ....actually it was " goodbeye" since 2009 :)))

[romefox]

The game that never came

[LulzAreGud]

Gabe newell ate the developer :C

[ubercoolman7]

@LulzAreGud lololololololololololololololo­lolololol

[mattpryor216]

Valve just needs to fully fund this and release it on PC and consoles, I would gladly pay for it.

[iamadonutface]

@mattpryor216 You wouldn't have to. It isn't made by valve, it's made by a mod team. It will be free if you ever bother reading on the site.

[mattpryor216]

@iamadonutface

lol dude I know it's free I've been following this for years. I'm just saying if Valve actually funded it the development would get done a lot faster (and probably be a lot better). I'd still be ok paying for it because it would totally be worth it.

[angstikala]

@FireFighterPyro also the longer it takes the worse the graphics will get? If I just wanted to play Half Life 1 I could play the original but if I wanted to get the most out of the experience I'd want to play it with modern graphics which this game cant provide anymore. So this will eventually become a useless mod?

[sgtdude1110]

@FireFighterPyro

The more longer?

So if they release it fast quicker it will be shit?

[Piorn]

They are becoming more and more like the professionals at Valve, they even adopted the professional release schedule!

[EDDlEMEDUZA]

Will this take 12 years too?

[nacolucas]

i pity my grandson now

[SlamageEntertainment]

They're not earning Money on this project, They really Don't care

[1337blahred]

how long will this taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake?

[u7y8u7y8]

why can't all you people just stop being so childish and be PATIENT?!

i swear we're ADULTS! (and if not then gtfo and start looking at things more suitable for your age group)

[tyerus]

Perhaps the developers should ask a small fee for this game (like 5 dollars) and get Valve to support them. The game will be out within one year then!

I am looking forward to playing this... I have been looking forward to it for many many years now.

[VineFynn]

@tyerus Unless they licensed the source engine, asking for a fee would be outright illegal. Valve has enough on its hands atm.

[mavrickindigo]

@At0m1cStudi0s Hey man, I was joking, you know? Although I highly doubt that the same people are working on this now. You know why? Because no one is working on it. It's vaporware. The website only had one update in the past 500+ days and that was to put christmas decorations over the site last holiday season. Not even a single tweet was placed that said "Oh hey, we're still working on this!"

[Guckensens]

it's the 5th time that i have watched this video!!

[bbenjoe]

Nice video, but completely outdated now.

[Mattdude454]

I WANNA SEE A TEST FOR item_longjump!!! XD

[slayermanbob]

Does anyone know what this is going to require to run graphically? Just as much as Half life 2?

[RudyGames]

@slayermanbob If you can play Team Fortress 2 or Half-Life 2 Episode 2 without any lagg, then Black Mesa would do the same :-)

[slayermanbob]

@RudyGames Thanks man.

[MaxPayneIzRudog]

When they read all those comments, they will quit :D

[FHomeBrew]

The website is still being updated. The statistics page (.com/Statistics) was updated as recent as 19th of June 2011. So I wonder how "dead" the mod is. Maybe it's only half alive. It'll be awesome when this is released. I'm more excited about this than I was about portal 2. Portal 2 was way too easy.

Keep it up you guys. This will be good enough to wait for any amount of time.

[casdfdfsdfds]

@FHomeBrew It's not dead. Visit the forums, troll a bit, and you'll see that Ram and James and the mod team are still caring for the mod.

[racoonknux49]

@FHomeBrew Half alive? I see what you did there

[FHomeBrew]

@racoonknux49 ;-)

[MitchieCookie123]

Go to the website. There are so many pics of all the levels. I know they're working on it.

[jose9758]

is the mod dead???

[GamingatWoW]

@jose9758 i think we can safely say yes

[SomeKindaSpy]

@GamingatWoW; it isn't read the below comments

[mastermax7777]

I bet i will play hl 2 ep 3 before if this ever comes out.. lol

[Sinisterene]

When this releases, I'm going to cum bacon

[iceman7794]

@blackmesasource Is this project dead?

[stealth1139]

i have a feeling that everytime i watch the same vids, it will help bring the mod along faster... I wants it, but we gotta wait.

Just keep it going ppl, its looks awesome.

[andy1942liu]

Actually, I think the chargers from PS2 version are more interesting.

[KarmaCharged]

ok,look,they are already done with ALL of the levels(except xen),BUT THEY ARENT GIVING OUT INFO FOR XEN OR ANY OTHER CHAPTER AFTER THAT

[HeavenSeven88]

Guys, do to a problem somewhere, this mod will never be released, sad but true.

[zoomoneys939]

@HeavenSeven88 Please tell me that your comment is just a horrible joke...

[RandomGuy1994]

@HeavenSeven88 proof or gtfo

[Antagonist121]

Anyone notice at the bottom of the website? 'Silence is the new Black'. Probably been there ages bur didn't notice. If it's only just been put up then: OMFG

[vlaulz]

@mavrickindigo, you idiot, DNF was announced 12 years ago, BMS - 6 years ago.

[Stryker218]

wow, looks awesome

[MilkyMayo]

I mean seriously, how hard is it to go on the blog and leave a simple post that says "we aren't dead!" I mean, you don't even need content, just those words to pt people's heart to rest!!!

[BenGaut]

@MilkyMayo The developers are constantly on the forums on the website, and they regularly (every couple of weeks) say "we aren't dead." They also continually upload media to the wiki page. I'm not sure what else needs to happen before people realize this mod isn't dead...

[mavrickindigo]

Duke Nukem Forever came out before this thing

[ExDosCrazy]

@mavrickindigo Diablo 3 is gonna come out before this thing...

[SomeKindaSpy]

@mavrickindigo; yes, but Duke Nukem forever sucked.

[PeanutButterAndZorg]

@mavrickindigo lets hope this wont be as bad as duke nukem

[StupidJellyfish]

@mavrickindigo

This thing wasn't announced in 1999.

[VineFynn]

@mavrickindigo Duke nukem forever was started 15 something years ago. This was started by indie devs for free, in their own time, and without support.

However, I still believe this is vapourware.

[MrNicktheparakeet]

@mavrickindigo there were actually jokes about that, they arent funny jokes anymore....

[garrysmodmoviemaker1]

@mavrickindigo Duke Nukem Forever was in development for over 12 years. This one has "only" been in development for seven.

[RudyGames]

@mavrickindigo Black Mesa came in development under the development of that game. They still have 4/5 years ;)

[SporeFan01234]

@mavrickindigo duke nukem forever sucked... so your argument is invalid

[mavrickindigo]

@SporeFan01234 I don't see how the quality of the game invalidates my argument. I was just saying that THE game known for never coming out came out before Black Mesa. That's all

[EyeoftheU]

@mavrickindigo

To be fair, Duke Nukem Forever was in development for a total of 14 years, and it being was worked on full time by a professional team (as in: "It was their job"). Black Mesa has been in development for 7 years, and it is being made by a mixed group of semi- and fully professionals who are working on it in their spare time (As in: "It is their hobby project"). That is taking long is really no surprise.

[KarmaCharged]

but they aren't giving out xen info,thinking they are spoilers :(

[KarmaCharged]

90 % Complete guys.also they are adding new textures for xen,gonarch,nihilanth and other xen stuff(and i mean a LOT of textures)

[the12221]

nicely animated!

[esquilo56100]

WHEN ITS GOING TO COME OUT

[darrenfaber]

Whoever said this mod isn't happening needs to learn how to do a little digging

[phdotsco]

@darrenfaber

the point is noone cares if it comes out now...

[phdotsco]

This mod is going to look like total shit by time it hits your HDDs. Updated graphics and physics? have you fucking seen the state of this? Valve has taken on cartoonised sprites and effects in the last 3 major titles for a reason. l4d, portal and tf2 all dont look like shit because they are hiding behind their cartoon fasade. NEW ENGINE 2012 FOR SURE.

[hazeman671]

@phdotsco you must be on crack because neither L4D or Portal are cartoony.

[phdotsco]

@hazeman671 you must be riddled with meth because YES they are

[hazeman671]

@phdotsco shhhh shhhh shhhhh that's just the crack talking.

[Daftpunk4627]

The mod is dead. The channel is dead. The site has no activity. The Twitter Feed is Dead. Shit, I think the fucking developers died too.

[EpiDemic117]

@Daftpunk4627 Glados went back in time and killed off all the developers that made this game, so that there would only be aperture left. That's why Ep3 isn't coming out either.

[riggedguy]

@Daftpunk4627 Raminator said: That's the thing, we've already tried all of this, and it got us nowhere. We tried doing frequent news updates; people complained. We tried doing large new updates; people complained. We tried setting up a devblog; people complained. We tried releasing video trailers; people complained. We tried setting up a YouTube channel; people complained. We tried setting up a Twitter account; people complained. Do you see where this is going?

@riggedguy So is the mod dead?

[riggedguy]

@Daftpunk4627 No it isn't dead. They just stopped updating because people kept whining about not enough updates. So the devs tryed everything and in the end they just decided to stop updating. Though there is still some places you can find updates.
