…and yet, THEY are the ones called “monsters.”
Great-looking screenshots. I’m psyched.

why can’t people just appreciate what has been delivered?
The Dev team should release a new trailer for the mod. The current trailer is great, but it doesn’t represent the current version of the mod (old MP5 model, not all the scenes shot in were 100% complete, etc).
Well…yeah…
Lotta dipshits when it comes to this, but I think the dev team has managed to ramp up the hype once more even though they are just some new screens (but they are awesome)
And holy shit
I wallpapered this shit as soon as I saw it.
Wait til you see what I did in my pants… :3
Also, in this screenshot: https://www.wiki.blackmesasource.com/images/7/77/Bm_mr_04.jpg
The “LAB B” sign is off center. :fffuuu:
I appreciate what has been done, but this isn’t the appreciation thread 
Hey remember when I said it will be released within 6 months, before stide’s second attempt at making Black Mesa in 6 months? I was right.

“I god damned love you all right now. I could eat your poop.”
Best comment ever.
Optical illusion caused by the blue/grey part on the left side of the sign…it’s perfectly centered
Just came back after nine hours of doing other stuff and saw all this being done. All I can say is brllglrggrgllgll…
Wonderful.
Gorgeous screens, and this is all in perfect time with my new computer. My day has been made! :awesome:
It’s funny that you can’t defend your beloved BMS with more than personal insults. At this point the only reason I think they’re putting out media is to fluff their portfolios, because something as meagre as 20k likes on FB for what is the most popular source mod to date shows exactly how much interest there in mods these days.
If it was going to happen, it would’ve years ago and the reaction would’ve been much greater.
You seem to be forgetting that to remake a game from the ground up and make it up to today’s standards takes time.
They’ve pretty much already finished the game, they’re just in polish now, and that’s a pretty time consuming phase. Do you know how many bugs they must’ve encountered? Do you know how long and boring it is to remove a bug? They have to do all of this on their own free time, it’s not like this is a full-time job.
This 20k likes stunt was just a test to see how loyal fans were of the mod, they would’ve released the media anyways even if they didn’t hit 20k likes. You don’t understand how making a mod that’s nearly it’s own full-fledged game with mostly new content and being built from the ground up takes. Then again, you probably don’t understand your left and rights either, so…

Also, seriously dude… Thank you for helping develop this game. You guys have obviously been working hard on it, and it’s really amazing to see it start to come together here before the release.
I mean, seriously… When I saw the screen shots, I accidentally a whole Coke bottle. [trollface]
I honestly quite don’t understand. Allow me to speak on behalf of only myself. People like Halflife2.net/ValveTime purely have this burning desire of hate for us and have completely stupid, foolish reasons behind it. We are a team of not only friends, but die hard lovers who took on the challenge of re-creating what we all consider, the best game of all time. We are not a studio, we are not a large game company called 3DRealms promising a commercial game, we are independent. Why not show some support or provide constructive feedback?
Once we are finished with our work, we will hold our heads up with pride and enjoy our creation with the rest of the world.
Regardless if many of my forum lurkers are assholes, I still love you all. Since leak-free of 2005, we’ve provided a solid community connecting Half Life fans across the world for almost 8 years. HalfLife2.net/ValveTime has currently over 11k users where we have over 12k even with our 7th complete hard drive/data failure to date. Haters can hate all they want.
The only criticism I have of new screenshots is that they are too colourful for my taste (flashy art direction). I prefer HL2’s and Portal 2’s aesthetics with more realistic toned-down colours and precisely designed colour palettes.
IMO old screenshots resemble Valve’s style more closely.
Kazioo, what are you talking about? I thought the color looked just like portal 2, personally.
Got any proof to back this up? Becuase that’s been said for years now and all they’ve been doing is showing reworked media.
Writing good code and fixing bugs isn’t hard, and I’m sure lots of bugfixing will come after release (if it’s ever released). Like I said, I’m guessing it’s just done as profile fluff and they’re taking people for a ride.
So? It’s still stupid and drumming up hype over a few pictures, they’ve been releasing small pieces of media for years and mostly to troll their fans more than anything.
Uh, yes I do, I’ve dabbled into modding quite a bit in the past and it is by no means easy. That said, it’s been over 8 years, countless people I’ve worked on BMS, and they still seem erratic. Sometime they’ll stay silent for a year, other times they’ll release a lot and tell you “it’s coming”. Like I said, BMS is clearly just portfolio fluff at this point. I’m sure more than a few key devs will be offered or have already taken jobs in the industry and will use it as an excuse when the day BMS finally dies.
Pointless and childish insult over someone having a different opinion than you. Heh.
Obvious troll is obvious.
