Get Black Mesa on Steam! We can do it!

I get the feeling Black Mesa will be at the top of the list before the week ends.
Also, it blows that you had to pay.

10% in 9 hours. That’s number one for me.

Since there’s no scraper on the front page of this website that would do the job: Yes, I think it is necessary to post that every time. How else can we express our excitement?

11% after my vote

By editing your post rather than clutter the forum with instantly obsolete new posts ?

11%? Come on people! :fffuuu:

12%, looks like we’re getting 1% every 45 minutes or so for the last couple of hours

Maybe you could make something similar to your widget, which shows a countdown to release or a percentage until release?

Voted! Good luck with the Steam release, BM devs! :slight_smile: Can’t wait for the 14th.

Voted.

The rates of change of systems like this aren’t linear, they’re exponential, like population growth, epidemics, or nuclear fission.

In other words, the rate will accelerate. Right now, you might see a rate of change of maybe 1%/hour or whatever it is, but that rate will continue to increase over time.

Pretty much like the facebook “like” challenge.

Hi everybody, I’ve been lurking for years, now have decided to register to the forum to congratulate the team on finishing the Herculean task. Great work guys, it must feel great to accomplish something of that magnitude. Thank you again and wish you all the best!

also - voted, it’s 12% now :slight_smile:

Voted.
BMS = Uploaded 9 hours ago = 1500 comments
Slender = 128 hours ago = 6000 comments
Well that escalated quickly.

Unfortunately, I’d imagine we’ll see a slow-down when we get to 75-85%. I think it WILL get to 100, but I don’t think it will continue to go faster and faster all the way to the end.

Come on, this needs to go faster!

It seems to be getting faster. The increase from 12 to 13% was faster than the ones before.
BTW, is there anyway of making a counter like the one for the 20000 Likes challenge?
At this rate, we’ll surpass the most voted game in way less than 24h.

We’ve gone from 11 to 13 in less than an hour. It’s really speeding up. I might have been wrong!

I hate to throw cold water on this, but how can you guarentee that this won’t get pulled because of not owning the IP rights to Half Life or source?

Even if it was linear, we would still make it with lots of time. I’m not worried. :wink:

It could be pulled for a variety of reasons, glaber. Who cares though? It is a bar that needs to be filled, a stat that needs to be achieved, and we ARE going to achieve it! :rage:

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.
