So because people whine about something the vast majority of us were able to do as teens and pre-teens over a decade ago, things should change? Thank God people like you aren’t on the Dev. team.
Is there something else you can do except trolling and insulting other people? By reading your posts i guess no.
I’m not trolling or insulting you. I just find it preposterous that people will complain about something that was so fundamental in the original.
This.
Check ‘always run’ and you won’t have a problem with the “warehouse”. Normal jumps will suffice.
Because it isn’t appropriate anymore. There is something called “to keep up with the times”.
If you want to crouch-jump, play the original. The devs clarified more than once that Black Mesa isn’t a simple nice-looking-copy of Half-Life.
The point is to bring back what fps gaming once was. By that logic, they should also have implemented iron sights (for all weapons), chest high walls and a 2 weapons limit. Because that’s what fps gaming is today.
There’s something called “re-making an old game.” If you don’t want to have to jump-crouch, play Half-Life 2.
I’m sorry, but this discussion has become utterly ridiculous. It’s not difficult to press ctrl after you hit the space bar. It wasn’t a problem for me as a 7-year-old child in 1998 and it shouldn’t be for you now. Not everything needs to be ground down and streamlined to make it more “modern,” especially when it’s something that was so fundamental to the platforming in the original.
This is so childish.
Your point to “to keep up with the times” also implies that we add ironsights and healthregen and stuff like that. But we don’t want that. Just as we don’t want the crouch-
jumping taken out, or rather taking it’s necesity out.
But the funny thing is, it is just a simple “key-combo”. I do it in almost every game.
If you are not capable of or refuse to doing that jump, then open the console and bind it.
Seriously, the configuration of the bind for a jump followed by a crouch is so simple, that I ask myself sometimes if you even played Half Life 1 back then.
Because back then people would take care of this kind of problems themselves…
ninja’d -.-
I’ve never said that it is difficult to do it, but it is kinda annoying nowadays.
A simple option in the menu to increase the height or automate it would be enough.
Have you ever played Left 4 Dead? I guess no, so dont tell me Ironsight and healthregen is a thing all shooters have today if you don’t know other games than CoD.
Even Half-Life 2 and episodes haven’t such things :rolleyes:
In which case you are simply arbitrarily picking a moment in “modern gaming” time, whose game mechanics Black Mesa should be adapted to. In this case, circa 2004-2008 HL2/L4D. The underlying point is that your argument isn’t very good.
There’s literally no need whatsoever for an option in the menu, seeing as you can bind the keys yourself.
How about looking over the own horizon? No need? Yeah for you there is really no need, but for all the casual gamers out there that don’t even know what a config.cfg, autoexec.cfg etc. is and for all the people here,
that have to answer the same questions over and over again how to automate it.
But i forgot that you are not somebody that helps others instead of trolling so yeah, YOU don’t need such an option.
Please explain how I am trolling. Do you say that because you know your argument is ridiculous and you have nothing else to say, or do you just not know what trolling is? Elaborate.
Are you really that stupid? Were you ever really active in a forum? People simply don’t use google instead of asking!
There will be threads over and over again but i see that you don’t even know what you are talking about OMFG!
And that’s why you are a troll. You haven’t contributed something valuable since you are posting on these forums. Only trolling people who are not sharing your opinion.
So the developers should pander to the whiniest people on the forum rather than have moderators and helpful community members link them to the relevant threads? Now I’m really glad you’re not on the Dev. team; we’d never see Xen.
But I’m not trolling and you still haven’t explained why you think I am. Just because you don’t consider my opinions valuable doesn’t mean I’m trolling.
Omg. Ok it’s no point in talking with you. Adding a simple option to a menu is no big deal at all and will save a lot nerves of the mods and members but someone like you simply doesn’t care cause you are not the one that has to answer all the questions.
You have a simple option:
I already told you that this is no option for most people because they are lazy but you are not able to understand the simplest things cause you obviously were never a part of a big community.
Oh dude, I am playing Valve games since Half Life 1 and I played ALL of them.
So don’t get me started on whether I played Left 4 Dead or not.
Editing config.cfg may be annoying, you are right there.
Installing the mod is the same “difficulty level” as that. So any of the casual gamers
who managed to somehow install this masterpiece can theoretically manage to edit
config.cfg or skill.cfg. The obvious thing is, that they are too casual for that…
And you who is defending them and actually appears to be one of them wants to tell me
about Valve games and stuff.
The whole discussion is obsolete due to the insignificance of this issue and also due to the fact that the devs just released the game and will surely take a lot of time to
a) make xen and b) address other bugs which cause people to be incapable of playing the game and things like that, important things and they won’t waste their time with the issues of casuals,
who won’t even put so much time in it, to even to that.
It’s 2012. People have access to Google.
Also, to step outside of this utterly banal argument for one moment - I’m the troll here? I’m the one that’s being insulting? You’ve called me stupid, are constantly telling me I am trolling without explaining how, that I’ve never contributed anything of value and that I’ve never been part of a community. And I’m the troll? Okay buddy.
I haven’t called you stupid. Learn to understand what you read. I asked you if you are that stupid.
A question is not a statement.
and btw im happy that im not your buddy, so don’t call me like i am.
