I just read on kotaku that the old Golden eye mod just got released, congrats to them. But that made me think of Black Mesa: Source.

Is black mesa dying?

I mean, look at the time line: http://wiki.blackmesasource.com/Time_Line

In one year all that happened was that they ceased coop development and they did an interview. I know they're not doing the release early, release often thing. But come on...

You could at least polish up the first quarter of the game and release that. Right? I got to play some of the game in back in february and loads of what I saw only needed a little polish before it could be released. And thats almost a year ago. I know, I know. You guys are doing this in your spare time and things take time. But maybe you guys should focus on just getting some of it out?

Or maybe I'm just beeing paranoid.

Do any mapcorians work on this? Do you guys know what is up?

Discuss.

Started playing some Uncharted two in between coding sessions, and it really is kick ass.

(sorry warby, I couldnt resist firing up the game before bying teh first one:P)

FUCK YEAH THE ROCK IS A MASTERPIECE.

Ive probably seen that movie even more than the gladiator.

Aye, this looks brilliant ;D

Thanks for the new cave-background for my desktop

Play the second, the first one is not good enough to be played.

I heard I had to play the first in order to play the second

Its illegal to get warm in saunas now, after a russian died in one during some competition.

So now you can only get warm by drinking alcohol.

Most of what Im saying is bs, finland is great

What do you need to know? Its cold as fuck, and they drink a lot to get over that fact.

Thats basically all there is to it

I hope for maybe 2~3 hours max

Ps3 slim 160gb with some games

I just watched ipman. Most definatly one of my favourite fight-movies now =)

aye,its pronounced shalg or schalg for you germans

Theres no e at the end, and if you can manage the ending without it sound like a k, then you got it right =)

Quote from D3ads

Episode 4 was soooo much better than 3, it actually had zombies in it Seriously though, I think it's safe to say

That's what I figured. Also

why didn't Andrea's sister turn after being bitten? I kept expecting her to get attacked and be forced to smash her sisters head in or something

I think its safe to say that when you get bitten and die you dont instantly wake up again as a zombie. You probably lay dead for a couple of hours first.

I call Warby "Sönke" as well, but Frie is frie and zacker is zacker

its weird

My real name is my nick, so I got no problems there Except my irl friends keep making me nicknames all the time.

lol their weaponry is so old

Nope, I havent used it for any games, i just surf on with opera and write sms's when it doesnt act up

Alright, you make some fair points. I can agree with the read more thing;

altho I dont hate on it when I see it, because it has a purpose; namely to filter away the stuff you dont want to read. But I guess on your site you'd want to read everything that is posted on the front page when there is something posted there. With news sites thats not always the case =)

When it comes to this forum I dont think its even okay here to use the full width, but its mostly not an issue because people seldomly write long posts. And when it happens you'll notice that its a very common fact to skip those posts. (tl;dr comes to mind) If the column of text had been thinner then you'd not notice the length of the post before you started reading, because the end of the text is out of your screen and by the time you realize your "mistake" you're already deep into the post you are reading and you might as well finish it... Just as a reference I think the unknownworlds site uses the maximum width available when posting their text, (its about 2/3s of hourences.com width). + they use a better font =)

On a side note I'd like to thank you for the hard work you've put into hourences.com. I remember when trying to learn to mod the unreal engine a few years back and your site was a great help

Quote from Pampers

pretty cool to be a norwegian film

Yes it was awesome.

On a side note, I just watched "Hjem til jul" (home for christmas), which is another norwegian film thats recent and its total suck. Don't go near that movie, you have been warned!

I gotta agree with everyone saying that this new site lacks soul compared to the old one, but you're also right when saying that the old one needed a new look =)

I'm not liking the font you've used on your front page, it doesn't look inviting enough that I want to read it. I think maybe the huge wall of text combined with the wide format that it is beeing displayed in makes me think back to the dreaded text books at school. You should do short pieces on your frontpage with "Read more..." buttons on them so that people first gets interested in the story first and THEN commit to reading the whole thing by clicking the button. I dont know why its more pleasing to read narrow columns rather than wide ones, maybe we feel like we're reading faster or that its easier to know where we are on the page when reading, but I do know that most sites these days have learned this and do use narrow columns. See kotaku or any other popoular news site as an example.

I also think its a little weird that this all makes perfect sense to me and is something I'd think about if I designed web sites for a living, but your webdesigner guy dont have a clue...

edit;

oh, and I just thought of something else too, you should bullet your links (putting the

[*] or thing to the left of them) in the news post text. it makes them stand out more and you can drop the underline and make them look nicer. just colouring them and putting an underline is so the 90's.
