Well I'll be damned. Black Mesa is less than 3 days away, and Hell isn't even frozen, yet. I wonder if that means something? The Hell thing, I mean. Anyway, I'm so happy, both that I'll be playing soon and for the devs, as all of their hard work will soon be released to the cold judging eyes of the world. I don't have a doubt in my mind that it'll be the best Source mod ever. It's popularity clearly shows, as well. Their website went down when word got out of the release date, and they rose to the number 1 wanted spot on Steam Greenlight (and have been greenlit as of today) in under a week. Speaking of site crashes, they say their server's will be ready for the shitstorm on this year's fateful Sep. 14. Let's hope they're right, the suspense from waiting these last 2 days is killing me and I'll probably snap if the site goes down, heh heh.
Meanwhile development on my mod Office Complex is going nice and well. Pretty fast, too. BoX has a few suprises he's been workin' on that are pretty fuckin' neat if I do say so myself, as well as both of us working on some brand spankin' new textures. I suppose I can show a screenie. It's not directly from the mod, only a texture test map, but still.
We're well on track, even though we don't update the main page often. I'm sure we'll be nice and perfectly ready come our release date. If you've been watching the mod's page you probably have noticed a sudden roar of people who think it's Black Mesa vs. Office Complex, where Black Mesa is a bull and Office Complex is the gored Spanish guy. This is no doubt brought on by Mesa's sudden release, but it's not stopping anything. We've known since day one that at any time during development Black Mesa could be released, and even when I started the project (Office Complex), knowing it could take over a year, I had a pretty firm belief that Mesa would be out by 2013. We don't care that someone else is doing it, we just wanna do it, at the very least for ourselves.
Yup, been a nice-ass week.
