I found Black Mesa cause I wikipedia’d Black Mesa (I was trying to find the article on the research facility) and it took me to a page of a bunch of different Black Mesa articles and on the list was the mod article so I read it and eventually got led to the website.
I found out about it in mid-07’, after searchin’ up Half-Life 2 mods on mah’ pimpin’ mod source. (Moddb)
Also, I typed in Google, “omg guise it wuz sooooooo sad when eli died” and ended up here a 2nd time.
Me: Oh I found a site called Black Mesa, what the hell is that for?
My friend: It’s a mod of Hl2.
Me: Oh…
I found Black mesa through the web comic “concerned”
I was looking for other half life 2 mods and found about black mesa since then just been following its production.
I found black mesa on moddb. Thought it was cool. I have been a lurker for a couple years though. It took the previous crash of the forums and site to make me finally register. lol
Google’d half life remake about 3 years ago
Me too
Through ModDB, it said ‘popular mods’ on the bottom right, and I saw “Black Mesa”.
I found Balck Maes under my bed. I was scared.
i was searching for BM map(geographic)…
I honestly don’t remember. I’ve been checking in on the site from time to time for years now. I’ve been really excited about it ever since the trailer was released, so I decided to register so I could participate in the general douchebaggery.
several years ago, prob 2005 or so. i read a list of the top hl2 mods (i think on planet half life), and the top ones in development. black mesa source was somewhere high on that list.
I don’t remember. Probably looking for this kind of mod since the release of Half-Life : Source
Found it about a year ago when I was just getting into Half-Life. Funnily enough, one day I just googled “Black Mesa” and then the teaser for the mod was the first entry.
Wikipedia in '06
A friend named Jester from Clan Gangsta Zombie [GZ] on Steam told me about it, and then I used the awesome power of Google to find ya!
As soon as I finished HL1 I was like- there’s got to be someone trying to remake this. I googled it, and found BMS
So been checking out this site for years now. When Half Life: Source was announced and then it turned out to be nothing like you thought it would be I google’d around to find Half Life remake.
Hell back in them days the guys were looking for people to help out and I even thought about applying such was my need to see the project done. However with no experience creating mods I thought better of it and been lurking ever since ¬_¬
Back in 2004, however I’m not exactly sure where I found it. My memory fail at the moment.
Been following it pretty closely since then. I lost quite a bit of interest a time ago but became largely interested again when the trailer were released back in November.
