Do the scientists still do a 'comedy run' when you chase them?

Has the scientist who looks at the blue screen with the security guard at the main reception desk still got an unfortunate nose?

Can we expect to see a passenger on another tram pull a moony at the window when said tram passes by?

Yes and no. You can spawn security guards with MP5s using the console, but they hold them as if they were the MP7 from HL2, which looks weird. During the game, they only use the Glock, .357 and shotgun.

Black Mesa is actually a text-based browser adventure game. They're already playing it.

Unfortunate noise?

Isn't that Freeman's job?

How would you go about changing the weapons for the guards via console?
also, what would npc spawncodes be? I couldn't find either of these in the Convars on the wiki.

Same way you do in HL2

"npc_create_equipment weapon_name"

then every NPC spawned after that with the console will use that weapon.

wtf Two ghost pages? Damn

**BahamutBBob** · 27-05-12, 23:56

It's been like that for a while. They go away temporarily when a new page is started.

**P0lop1e** · 28-05-12, 13:52

I can't find the answer anywhere,
But in HL there is an automatic aiming option (when you're close it aims for you).
Will it be the same in BM or was it removed?
(I hope it was removed as I personally don't really like it)

Then why does it matter?

Even if it exists (which it very well may- HL2's easy mode has it) no one is forcing you to use it.

**_∂lpha#** · 28-05-12, 15:02

I think auto-aim was only in the Steam version of Half-Life and the expansions.
It's under the Mouse tab in Settings and is automatically switched on if you play on Easy difficulty.
Not quite sure if it was in the original CD version of HL.

It was.

**_∂lpha#** · 28-05-12, 15:27

Well there ya go.

**OrderOfDagon** · 28-05-12, 16:50

It was useful on the PS2 port, but other than that it was for beginners, I think.

**ac3d** · 29-05-12, 03:18

Is the duck-jump in Black Mesa? is it required?

**Raminator** · 29-05-12, 07:52

Very much so, you literally won't be able to get through the game without it. There's a HUD hint or two early on, but you'll need to master it fairly quickly.

And now we have the answer to the question if gameplay got improved.

**Dadster** · 29-05-12, 10:16

Raminator, love the new shades !

Will the scientists in BM be wearing them as well?

You're right. What a show-stopper. I'm defenitely not gonna download the game knowing this. The guts these devs have, seriously, how dare they not change that!
