Oh shit, forgot about this. Tonight was either go down the pub / pickup my new ipad 3 / or now download and play this.

Black Mesa wins.

 

[hym]

I like coincidences, this releases 21st of September, 7 inch action figure with headcrab, gravity gun and crowbar, there is also a headcrab plushy with printed fabric.

Is there or is someone doing an OT?

Can't wait !

3h 14 minutes.

It'll be all over Diablo 3 premiere with servers offline. I don't think they have that much servers

 

[SteveWD40]

So how will the dl work on Steam? will it grab the Source SDK for you? Should I look to dl that first?

Hopefully they'll have a torrent up.

Installations

If you meet the Software requirements, you technically do not need anything installed. If you do not have the Source SDK Base installed however, upon running Black Mesa you will be prompted by Steam and asked to download it.

I would not assume it will be on steam at launch

 

[CryptiK]

they better have a lot of places to download it from.

 

[Angry Fork]

Someone on the forums said there will be direct download options as well as able to download via torrent.

 

[br0ken_shad0w]

Less than an hour now.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

So pumped!

 

[xemumanic]

I intended this to be, but some mod screwed with topic title up with come cynical bullshit that I can't change.

 

[Shadow Hog]

What's Half-Life?
Baby don't hurt me
Don't hurt me
No more

 

[xemumanic]

I've updated the first post with relevant links, and will try and update it throughout the day.

 

[Santiako]

What do I have to download before this? Source SDK Base 2007?

Yes. I would have assumed since the game was greenlit, we wouldn't need that anymore, but you may as well get it now and be sure.

 

[Sidewinder]

20 min left? Will download as soon as I'm at home. Finally, HL1 is one of the best FPS ever made.

 

[Chavelo]

I... wow..... is... this really... happening, GAF?

Are we really going to play Black Mesa today? I.... D:

 

[afternoon delight]

So I'm convinced this isn't real life.

It's not really launching today, right?


Right?



Right?

Edit: In 13 fucking minutes?????

 

[I H8 Memes]

"Innnn the test chamberrr"

 

[Jintor]

Nope.

Spoiler

yes

 

[Divius]

Someone hold me tight.

 

[Lionheart1337]

I don't know whether to be pumped or to brace myself for disappointment.

 

[zooL]

holy shit i am so pumped eleven minutes to go...

 

[Uriah]

Someone needs to make an OT

If a mod is reading this, change the title please.

Indeed.

Once that happens, this thread may as well be locked.
Thanks to everyone who posted, even you Negative Nancys who tried to poo poo on our parade.

 

[sn00zer]

I predict he mod will be okay but nt great and will be considered a travesty and the worse thing since hitler

I can put something together real quick. I don't think we need anything fancy for this.

 

[SparkTR]

Fuck I don't know what to do. If I play this I can't play FTL, and if I play either I might miss Obsidian's announcement.

First world problems, I wish I had your problem, since im at work, my only option is Obsidian's announcements and your impressions on this game.

 

[CryptiK]

5 minutes!

 

[funkystudent]

Cool that is is finally coming out but I wont get it right away.


Ill give it a few days just to make sure its not full of spyware or set my PC on fire or something.

 

[dark10x]

Oh wow, I opened this thread out of curiosity only to find out that it's releasing TODAY?

 

[zooL]

in three fucking minutes, man!!!

This is the page that should have the download details soon:

It'll be considered the worst thing ever even if it was AAAA quality with every feature imaginable.

TWO MINUTES LEFT

HOLD ME, GAF

 

[CryptiK]

I cant believe its almost HERE!

 

[Wickerbasket]

Is the game going to be on Steam once the count down finishes? Or will it be on Steam further down the line?

 

[zephervack]

So this is just a portion of the game right, not the entire thing?

 

[afternoon delight]

I just want to see it. Not even getting close to mad or judgemental of it's quality. It's fucking Half Life 1, one of the best there is.

 

[Spierek]

One minute left!

 

[BigTnaples]

And its down.

 

[xemumanic]

So this is just a portion of the game right, not the entire thing?

It's all but the final level, Xen.

See? Damn topic change is confusing folks.

 

[Backfoggen]

That's a weird time to launch a mod.

 

[Angry Fork]

So this is just a portion of the game right, not the entire thing?

Like 90% of it, I think the last 1-2 levels aren't done yet. I wasn't really fond of Xen though so this is fine with me.
