Community Update

I’m going to throw one in the dark and say that this game is really close to release. Why else would they make the front page sexier and more professional? And most of all: Why would they put an ESRB rating at the right bottom corner of the website? Surely that must mean[/SIZE][/SIZE][b] this game is going to be released on Steam sometime soon.

[/b]Right?[/SIZE][/SIZE]

I hope so.

What also seems to hint that it’s almost here is that at the end of the home page it says: “© 2004-2014 BLACK MESA MODIFICATION TEAM. VALVE, STEAM & HALF-LIFE TRADEMARKS OF VALVE.”

You assume too much.

I’m still going to wait until the Black Mesa team makes an official announcement about the game though.

Wow! The new website is really great!
:slight_smile:

This! They did a great job redesigning the website.

This new website doesn’t run so well on my Android tablet… :confused:

Safari on my iTouch navigates okay, but the large-text blurbs are cut off at the bottom and the backgrounds don’t scroll as they do in my desktop browser (they’re static images behind the text).

So I wonder why Black Mesa is getting a ESRB rating.

Doesn’t have to do with Greenlight, because there are games on Steam without ESRB ratings.

That new website is really cool. Much better than the old one, in my opinion. Although… Why does it have an On A Rail screenshot that’s labeled as a Forget About Freeman screenshot? :stuck_out_tongue:

If you have a ESRB rating pending that means that something will have been submitted.

But there is no news on what that something was yet.

Thank you for pointing this out, a small hotfix to help improve the mobile phone experience is incoming

Awesome! I tend to browse a lot on my tablet.

While you’re at it, get rid of the gray background behind our avatars so we can have proper transparency, dang it! ;D

The only vibe that © 2004-2014 is sending this way is: it won’t see the light this year, pals. Hopefully, the next one.

Is it a standard for greenlit mods to get a rating or is something more going around here? But my guts are known to be paranoid, not sure if they can be trusted.

Does it really matter? Would it tell you something either way? No, it wouldn’t tell you anything, except that the game’s getting rated.

Go to the new website > CTRL + U > scroll a bit down

God dammit Hubi, this is awesome.

And a ‘link’ to bmrf.us.

Does this mean something (beyond crediting that site for the ASCII art)?

I think it’s part of the ARG. It mentions DALsystems and such.

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.
