MOTHER OF GOD IS THIS GAME AWESOME. IT LOOKS, SOUNDS AND FEELS BEAUTIFUL. Forget screenshots, as they do no justice to what this game looks like. Play the game at max settings in real time and feast your eyes on unreasonably high textures (OMG THEY ARE SHARP!) and breathtaking structures.
This turned out to be WAY more genuine than I expected. There is no better way to relive Half-Life 1. If Valve doesn’t hire the team they need some psychiatric help 0_0. Back to the game!
It’s hard to talk about the things you love about the game when there are so many people here who haven’t had the chance to play yet.
One hour into the game, and the experience has been flawless and incredibly unique at that - when was the last time you replayed a childhood-defining title recreated beautifully by talented fans of the original. The gameplay is nothing like I’ve seen. Reliving old moments and noticing subtle changes, all while using smooth mechanics, taking in pristine graphics, and being utterly immersed by the sound design and accompanying score. It’s almost too much information to process at once, but I suppose that what second playthroughs are for. Thank you Black Mesa devs, you’ve truly delivered and should be proud of this magnum opus.
Got pretty hard back there in the lambda parts. The finale was pretty difficult. Xenian flying fucks were a pain. “To Be Continued…” made it all though. Can’t wait for when this all dies down and we start talking about Xen.

Just got the Tau Cannon and am half way through Questionable Ethics…
This game is absolutely stellar; it’s better than I imagined by miles.
How can you not love this stuff? Don’t look at this if you haven’t gotten past Blast Pit, but it’s fucking amazing - I’m sorry.
Well, I tried downloading this morning, had a touch of rage…something along the lines of “WHAT THE FCK IS GOING ON!? THE FCKING WEBSITE WON’T OPEN! FCK! FCK! OH SH*T I’M LATE FOR WORK!”
So yeah…I luckily got the torrent up through facebook and let it download while I was at work. Then came home an hour early and OH my girlfriend came over to surprise me…I was surprised…(more like "FCK! I was so close to starting to play!" but I took the high road). So after about an hour of appeasing her, I came to find the website still not opening to me. Either way, my torrent was up and for the first time ever, I let you pricks leech off of me and seeded. (much love :- ) Then I played the game through the beginning of Blast Pit. I have never been so scared and surprised than when I was younger. This has blown my mind. I have been taking screen shots periodically so that I can look back and say “Wow”
Oh, and the website still doesn’t work for my IE so I tried out Chrome…actually works. And to think I thought the website was still down.
Thanks so much modders…but your job is not done yet. The alien poop chute delivery system must be completed!
Am I the only one getting abnormally high gpu temps while playing this? I’m getting about 60 degrees celsius, where most games don’t get much above 50, including Crysis 2 etc.
60 is not high temperature for GPU. Anything below 80 is OK.
Its because even your GPU gets overexcited by the AWESOMENESS of BlackMesa!
I have just created an account in here simply to post this and thank you guys for the wonderful work you have done with this mode. I have played it for around two hours: the last time I had played Half Life was probably 10 years ago, so half of the time I was rediscovering the game, the other half trying to figure out which passages were new, which details were different. I really like the fact you tried to add a bit of personality into it by changing a couple of things here and there! (yay for adding female scientists! 
)
Graphically the game really looks polished and while I guess some new voices were recorded I can’t tell which ones were, everything sounds very professional (this is actually the first time I play the game in English).
Only downside…Well, I kinda miss the original sound of the gun, but that is just me!
Brilliant job and thanks a lot!
Hi, guys! Shoutout from Russia! There were some problems with the download, but we have overcome it. Modders… IT’S FUCKING AWESOME!!!
Seriously, if Valve will not communicate with you, to encourage you somehow, I’ll write them a letter titled “What the fuck!?!”
Can’t wait the Xen episode! Good luck!
In Soviet Russia, WE LOVE YOU!
I know this sounds stupid, but after I have installed Black Mesa, where can I find the Lunch icon?:retard:
@ Sorter…in your Steam-Client 
Look at your gamelist!
Ok I think that the problem is that I didnt install it in Steam dictionary but just in my D disc!!!
Could it be a problem???
I honestly never thought I’d see this day, but I have, and it’s wonderful.
@devs: thank you all for this great mod, great work! i love the tram ride
I’ve played through, so far, into We Got Hostiles, where the HECU are rappelling into the vertical airshaft thing after Gordon runs briefly across the topside.
Black Mesa is indescribable. I don’t know any other words to use. I spent far too long in Anomalous Materials listening to the conversations between the scientists. I also like the indirect reference to Magnusson when you destroy his casserole. I sniggered.
And Izzy and Eli…wow.
So far, I am…I’m… :jizz:
Whoops, sorry.
I might not be on the forums much this weekend (I’m not sure) because I’m sure that there’ll be spoilers that I don’t want to see. I want a chance to see everything for myself.
Founded in 2004, Leakfree.org became one of the first online communities dedicated to Valve’s Source engine development. It is more famously known for the formation of Black Mesa: Source under the 'Leakfree Modification Team' handle in September 2004.
