Should I wait for Black Mesa to come out? Or just buy Half-Life: Source while I wait. (Sorry if there is already a thread like this, couldn’t find one.)
Why would you play Half-Life: Source? The Source version is a crappy port that sucks.
Play the original or just don’t play anything at all.
Why would you play the original? Half-Life: Source has:
Better lighting
Better Physics system (ragdolls etc)
Water
Better Audio system
^this
also the console in the original version doesn’t work properly
original because mods
get both
Yeah, mods are really the big difference in value here. Go for the original goldsource version, (assuming you’ll only buy one version) and you’ll be getting hundreds of extra hours of gameplay in the form of lots and lots of MP and SP mods. (Not all of them good, but quite a few more than worth playing at least once.)
And the console in the original does work properly, it just doesn’t suggest for you.
Get a job.
Half-Life Source looks fucking terrible, I recommend to get the original.
no one cares for any of that.
except the physics. its fun to throw bodies around with explosives
Get the original WON version published by Sierra on Ebay.
That one has the coolest menu of any valve game
Yes, absolutely buy or get the original; whether you buy the Goldsrc or the Source version is up to you. I’d suggest Goldsrc for mod support and just for the sake of originality, but the Source version does have some advantages such as water, lighting, and physics and a less buggy console.
Here’s the thing, I already own the original, but Goldsrc lags for me, Source does not, so that’s why I wanted to know if I should just wait for Black Mesa to come out, or get HL Source while I wait for Black Mesa.
Personally, I am waiting for Black Mesa to come out.
Well if you haven’t played through the original and can’t with Goldsrc, then I’d say absolutely get HL Source and play through it.
That type of logic won’t get you anywhere around here. Believe me, I’ve tried.
Sir, your computer must have problems.
What’s wrong with the console on the original?
I still was able to play through, but it was really laggy at certain times. :freeman:
Well your only option is to buy HL:S, <- lols, god knows how long this mod will take to finish, actually he doesn’t, when he commanded the devs to release the mod they all replied “when it’s done” he then struck Raminator with a bolt of lightning so strong that it turned him into a girl.
