Hope you are ready for a lo-ong shift...
Barney's Tales is a total conversion of the original Half-Life Blue Shift add-on. Source Engine, used in mod, will allow us to visit the world of the scary Black Mesa Research Facility once more.
Security officer Barney Calhoun, undecided major, was going on his first shift in a research facility. He put on his uniform, got his Glock-18 in the armory and set out for the Sector 3. Suddenly, Barney felt an explosion and the lift he was going by fell down. Next thing he saw when consciousness returned was a strange alien creature tearing a scientist.
With the personnel and security officers at his side Barney must escape the Black Mesa before it becomes a blazing crater...
The development team is working at some innovations of Barney's Tales:

Greetings!
Yup, we were silent about 9 months and we have decided at last to show the public what we were working on so hard. Of course, we've had some rearrangements during this period of time. Some people left, some entered the team. Ah, okay, I'm finished with sad.
Now about some curious things. You know, we did not want to give any new media, but there was some funny case. Once I received an e-mail with an offer to give an interview to a Czech site hl2.vokr.com, then had a quick chat with LEXX and we both thought: "Whatever!" You know, answering those questions was rather a nice experience. Here's the link to an English version of the conversation - try it, there are really interesting details about our upcoming mod, some information about the release date, visual and Ai features.
Sure thing, what media release without any screenshots? Here they are:
After we received some angry responses about those desert-camouflage, we've decided to alter them. From now on they are going to look accurately like HECU soldiers in the original. As you can see, we have one screenshots from the beginning chapter and two ones from ba_maint.
Hope you liked that. Waiting for you impressions about the shots and the interview in our mod profile.
Good luck and stay tuned!

NO!! It DOESN't dead! Shurt up you fuckinh mouth about that!!
Is this mod dead?
Yeah, I think it is... :( Rly, some info by devs. would be really cool!
Also is it going to end like near the events of HL2? Ok maybe not that far but at least when the portal storm starts(Telling how Barney got to the now called:City 17).
I hope its not as short as Blue Shift was. :/
DEAD
If they won't tell us at least something about progress in upcoming 2 weeks, then its really dead. But its not fair to keep us in nescience. And I think its really dead. Its really shame...
I think you guys should give us at least small proof of life.... Your fan base is growing and you are not responding us...
Давайте уже Media Release, давайте! >_<
Now this mod certainly gives Black Mesa Source a run for it's money. Keep the faith, and the rest will follow. Oh, I just love the Hummer. I know you didn't drive in the original, but could we use the Hummer - even if it's for ramming a large door down with.
