No.
Did you read it at all? Im not one of the people to jump at any hint of activity, but this is pretty cool…
Anything is possible, but I wouldn’t get my hopes up.
Let the speculation begin!
You know what, nevermind. I dont want to expect anything. The secret to happiness is low expectations, so thats me!
Who knows then this page was made. The copyright says 2012 so it is recent enough, but still, it could just be some preparation for a scheduled release many months from now.
I hope this is a sign, I hope the pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams,
I hope.
When I see speculations like these I can’t help but to think about the following joke:
A man dies, and luckily he enters heaven, where he meets God. So our hero asks the Almighty one:
- God, is it true that for you, a million year means only a second?
- That is true.
- … and that, for you, a million dollars are just a cent?
- That’s also true my son.
- Well than, could you give me a cent?
- Sure, wait a second!
You may use the hidden page to donate to Joel if you wish.
However, donations to Joel in on way shape or form reflect donations to the Black Mesa team. We do not accept donations for the mod itself due to potential legal issues. Also, any donations granted upon Joel does NOT grant the donator any special benefits in any sort of context or medium.
I thought it was an interesting find, OP. I haven’t waited too long for this mod (roughly a year 1/2 to a year or so) but some people have waited much longer. It’s good that there’s a sign, true of false, that can keep spirits alive about the mods release.
Giggidy
inb4 soundtrack gets released and the plan changes so it doesn’t signify mod release
So naturally, you’re going to make your code for Black Mesa available for free download with the option of donating?
It was fake the moment I saw “Available now” and “‘Buy Now’.”
Just looks to me like he’s got all this set up just so when the BM dev team sends him the go ahead to release the soundtrack it’ll all be set up. That could still be another five years for all we know.
Hey, regardless this is pretty big and exciting news. Let’s all wish the dev’s well, it looks like something is around the corner!
First a BlackMesaDevs Facebook page then a music download page and finally a comment by Joel saying “The links for the soundtrack will be activated once it is released. Which shouldn’t be much longer”
Is it possible?
Until it’s officially released, I don’t care.
Based upon this, I can honestly say it’s likely that the mod is released before the end of the year. When you’ve been waiting since '08, hope like that is really quite something!
