What part of Black Mesa do you want to stay most true to the original!

I have been looking at this mod since its beginning and bought the PCGAMER magazine with the original article explaining the premise of this mod! Since then I have been poking in and out of this forum and have been wondering what people are most looking forward to staying exactly the same with little change to the original. And what would you have liked to see changed completely or is there a big feature you would want to see implemented that would never be available in this mod, your choice!

This will always hold a special place in my heart. <3

But in all seriousness, I’m pretty sure what brings the most nostalgia is the cascade sequence, and it looks like it will be pretty true to the original.

Those scientists in the falling elevator. I will be pissed if you can’t cause them to greet you right before they die.

I would have to agree entirely! I love the part with the Elevator! My favorite sequence! But I would have to say Office Complex holds a fun memory in my mind! I loved the Ambiance!

The parts where it’s fun to play and meshes well with the rest of the series.
I think those are pretty important.

Hope none of you get your hopes up for a 1:1 remake…

The Gargantua first fight!

Xen, of course!

Hmm, maybe that insanely fast movement speed.

Definitely the part in Surface Tension when you come out of the gutter to the side of the mountain and see the Jets fly by…

Ah what the hell. I want office complex to have that same creepy feel.

I know nobody likes it, but I actually enjoy the CLANGCLANGCLANGCLANGCLANG because it adds tension and atmosphere.

I also want office complex to be as creepy as before

“Unforeseen consequences”, just because of how the Gman makes it sound so badass in HL2 ep2. It would actually be so cool to be able to see the Gman whisper those words in Eli’s ear just before the whole world goes to shit… maybe with noclip ;d

The part where it releases.

well, I actually want to play questionable ethics, but I’m excited to see how xen is going to be, also I want to smack some zombies in unforeseen consequences, with this I think I’ve got 3 favorite levels XD

Personally one of my abiding memories was at the very start on the inbound train when I realised I could move and IT WASN’T A CUTSCENE!

I can’t wait to see the reimagined opening of the game - it sets up so much of what is to come.

Davo

the droning ominous-yet-soothing Xen soundscape.

Especially the healing pools.

I want them to keep that Freeman character.

The loading screens. No really.

I always found the loading screens of Portal 2 to be a bit of immersion destroying. I always loved that HL and HL² actually never had a “breaking” black screen or something else that destroyed the immersion of being in another world.

CPU im not sure if freeman was even a well known character he wont be missed if hes not in the mod… :stuck_out_tongue:
