Black Mesa interview on Rock Paper Shotgun

Guys, don’t forget our number one rule. DON’T FEED THE TROLLS.

Wow, RPS commenters really are a bunch of douchebags.

great article! - although for some bizzarre reason, the last question made me think of Spaceballs:

“When?”
“Just now”
“When will then be now?”
“Soon”
“How soon?”

i lol’d xD

and btw yeah i really have to quote everyone saying how stupid are the comments… it’s like they are trying to find everything they can to attack BM, now that they can’t say “IT’S DEAD!!1!!OMG!11” no more ._.

All I have to say after reading the interview is…

Their better not be any quick-time events.

Their better not be any deathcams/killcams without the option of disabling them.

Their better not be ANY 3rd person views at all.

And this better not turn out like Duke Nukem Forever. I really hope the core mechanics of what make half-life great are still there. I hope it still feels like half-life, and not some shoddy modern remake based on other games on the market.

Montero ACTUALLY said in the interview that by modern he meant Half-Life 2 and such. WTF made people think about quick-time events, third person or anything else? And the death-cam is not what you think it is; it is not a MP style deathcam in which you see the enemy, it’s a deathcam in which “the camera” (your head, your body) falls in the ground with realistic physics once you die.

There are not even iron-sights in the game. Goddamit, people don’t know how to read. In this context, Modern=HL2.

Well, it’d be weird if their better would be anything else than a human, otherwise it’d be hard to receive the money.

SURPRISE! You came to the wrong forum of the wrong mod to assume these stupid ass worries.

What else is there to expect from someone who thinks ‘their’ and ‘there’ are interchangeable?

The only thing I wish could’ve come out of the interview was more screenshots. The ones we got were nice but dammit I want to see more.

Play for Free?! So we will have to actually PAY for SOMETHING?! OMG! You suck, you greedy bastards! Will there be hats?

:smiley:

Yes, you have to pay for my love.

How much, sweetheart? <3

“love” costs about $5 a shot in my neighborhood. Do you have paypal?

God, those posts on that site really just remind me of why they stopped doing large updates for the general public in the first place

I lol at how some of them think modernizing it means putting in regenerating health, and when someone posts about what it really does mean, everyone just ignores him

Don’t argue with them. Stick to us people on the forum. We are more than loyal to you. We are a part of you. Like the bacteria that’s on your skin and everywhere. We digest your food and shit on the people that stay behind. We love you.

I am going to buy a new computer just to play the mod when it is released

I seriously hope it won’t be too much different from HL1, because I was rather disappointed from HL2.
I hope it will feel like Half-Life… And saying that I mean the overall gamespeed, the action and tricking.

I like HL2’s character presentation and storytelling but HL1’s pace and environments. BM is gotta be the best from both games.
