Started listening to the soundtrack - which is awesome btw - before reading this thread. It’s taken me 30 minutes from server overload haha.
Congratulations and THANK YOU DEVS! Very unexpected!
Haha, I waited something like five years to finally register on these forums yesterday and a day later these news pop up. They were just waiting for me all this time. 
Great news! I can´t wait.
if the forum is overloaded and super busy now, what will happen if its relased? internet will crash wordwide?
Wow!.. the day has truly, finally come! Thank you guys for not waiting until Xen is done… this was a wonderful idea! Perhaps you are using a newer build of source for that? Xen is somewhere around 1/4 of the game, right?
I am listening to soundtrack… pretty good stuff… and I am sure many of you guys will love it. It is not my cup, for the most part, but I will definitely add a couple of the ambient tunes to my playlist.
To the bloke that said on page one that he does not know how to do torrents: you have 11 days, 22 hours, 24 minutes and 6 seconds to learn… since it takes about 5 minutes to download bittorrent (for example) and completely master it, you should be okay. And I suspect that you will not need to go to piratebay or anything – they will have a torrent/magnet link all over this mofo… you just click Get Torrent and it starts DLing in torrent app, right into your download folder… could not be easier… well, being on steam would be… and totally rock…
I am actually surprised that brokenfridgehinge was not privy to launch date. He seems even more surprised than us - spaghetti falling out of pockets whatnot… I would have thought that him and Ram were mates… them being so close in AU… occasionally get together at Outback Steakhouse for a Bloomin Onion® and a Fosters… 
Anyhoo, Ram & Co. I fucking love you bastards!.. Your dedication and hard work will certainly be the stuff of legends. And some day, many years from now, folks will gather around campfires and tell their grandchildren all about your epic conquest…
…now go off and make the ending that this bad-boy so very well deserves.
I bet.
I sincerely apologize if this was already posted
yes
YES
Excellent! Been waiting since 2004!
Universe will implode and restore itself from the latest backup, which is september, 1. And you’re going to wait all those 12 days all over again. And again. And again.
YES! I’ve been waiting for this mod since I saw it on mod db 8 years ago. Bit cut up about Xen not being there, but as long as the soldiers are bad-ass and the gibs are flying then I’m one happy person. Great job guys!
P.S. The soundtrack is amazing.
holy fucking shit, I want have a major orgasm right about now
look, imagine the apocalypse, now imagine Black Mesa’s release
then you imagine Half Life 3
I don’t care how long it takes, just for the fact you guys are releasing it means you care and we all gotta respect that
My mind is fucking blown now, i must buy nest brain. 8 YEAR WAITING OVER!!
I was reading a book and during a break I came here and now I want to fap all over my computer screen
Well done guys!
I’m über happy right now! 
. Xen won’t be on the first release
I dont know what half of this stuff mean, but I think they did some explanations about this.
Omg, I just peed myself :3
How much time is a reasonable time?
Also, holy shit!
It’s fucking time already…
I’ve been looking so forward for this day, the waiting is over, just gotta wait a little more now!
