Now that's some very lovely work.. Great detail here. I like that additional tram line you've added going completely elsewhere.
Is that way to the right leading down below?
If yes:
Wasn't there a scripted sequence in the original with 2 scientists saying something unique and a Barney raising the Black Mesa flag? It shouldn't be left outside even knowing that it's not important. But there might be those which never played the originals before even Black Mesa cut numerous official npc scenes. I kinda disliked that as any official npc scene should remain included. Of course that's only my opinion and it truly really isn't that important I know that. I'm just a good old fan boy. ;)
I definitely agree with you. What we try to do is to not cut anything, but add something on the top of all that. :)
Looks pretty cool, please dont forget to add the flag and the scientists talking!
It's too low for A tram i'd say.
which path is the tram going down?
Lovely work.
As an individual who used to work in a high security environment, I frequently see little details (in Black Mesa, and your work here) which reminds me of that installation.
Stupid things, really. Having a sign that says "Do not remove sign" is a perfect example of this. Classification markings (stickers) on e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g and compartmentalization to the point of hindering work & progress. This is "Black Mesa" (ahem, cough) all over.
As far as the original game compared to Guard Duty? You guys blow it out of the water, without question. Really great job and I hope you continue to work on this project. THIS WILL BE A HUGE SUCCESS! GOTY? I think so.
And...don't forget to put a coversheet on that coversheet!
