Duke Nukem Forever – a textbook example of long -term construction. It is believed that the game stayed in production from December 1996 to June 2011, that is, 14 years and six months old. As Reddit users calculated, amateur remake Half-Life This period overtook.
Creation Black Mesa began in September 2004. The impetus became Half-Life: Source – port of the original game for the new engine from Valve. The company did not redo the graphics and limited itself only to point changes. Because of this, disappointed fans and began to score their Half-Life On the Source engine.
The first two -thirds Black Mesa We left September 14, 2012, that is, eight years after the start of development. The authors remained to finish the world of Zen – and then the remake would be completed. But the mod went a different path: it was transferred to a commercial basis, releasing a paid version on May 5, 2015 Black Mesa In early access Steam.
Since then, the birth of Zen has not ended, and the total duration of the development of the remake exceeded 14 years and seven months.
What is interesting, nor Duke Nukem Forever, Neither Black Mesa For such a huge time they did not freeze, as is the case with other long -term construction. The shooter about Duke constantly changed the engines and got involved in litigation with his publishing house Take-Two, A remake Half-Life From time to time I received updates of various kinds (for example, with new cards for multiplayer).
Now Zen for Black Mesa going to release in the second quarter of 2019. The update even has an impressive trailer, so there is no time to wait long! After all, the truth? Is it true.

It’s time to change the engine and start the development from the clean sheet, recognizing the previous version of the unsuccessful. 🙂
As far as I know, the modest state, which was originally made by the mod, and even along the way they studied and improved skills in their free from their main work. So compare with the studio, which is a professional game developer and whose employees should work on the game just at his main time is not entirely correct.
My advice to you, simple and philistine – you should not classify the surrounding interlocutors according to the zoological catalog, poking your finger at random in the squad of rodents. And then also demand arguments. People are offended, you know, regardless of any pluses and minuses there.
The fact that the game https://unibet-casino-ontario.co.uk/games/ on paid rails does almost 15 years is the problems of developers. A surprisingly simple thought, but they have no obligations and “responsibility” to the players, except for the reputation, and cannot be. As well as all other developers, from loners to large studios. Crowdfunding projects are worth a little, because there are still obligations to the “early investors” are created.
The game is not crowdfunding, its appearance in Steam does not cancel its free (original fashion for Bilda 2015 is still available on Moddb) and is dictated by more convenient opportunities for everyone who wants to maintain development and participate in it on the forums of the game community. The cost of the game will not change after the release from the early access, which was also immediately announced, because no one was at all forced to buy a game, and certainly the fact of the purchase does not give any rights to “kindle torches”, except that people do with a constant frequency. You have every right to take this into account in the future and not buy the products of these developers in early access format.
Maybe people simply do not want to enter into a dispute, especially with a person who has a pump on the topic.
But the label is easier to hang.
I don’t like this situation at all. I do not see a single reason to protect the developers, it’s time to make torches at all.
Yes, you’re right, because during this time the developers did not keep in touch with the community, did not release an additional chapter, did not make Zen, did not try to turn Zen into a full -fledged chapter, did not let out patches, did not talk about the development process, did not release a giant patch that rolled the last technological achievements and all that. All this was not. It’s time to make a torch, you Absolutely right.
Making Valve Game remake, they learned the secret knowledge of Valve Time. But in general, black meza is not bad for himself, bought, played and was satisfied. I’m waiting for Ksen, and it will be possible to go from 1 to 2 with episodes in binge.
I repeat the idea of my misunderstanding – they detained Battlefield 5 for a month and everyone poured out.Aries and curses on developers.
Yes? People do not want to get garbage instead of the last chapter, and also still have confidence in the mounting team. That is why many forgive them this.
Hello Games with a staff of employees of 15-20 people managed to release the game, noble.Bill, saw patches and additional content
They crap, they were craped for the unfinished game, their PR manger crap, dumped, everyone was crap, which makes it clear: to release an inferior product for the full price-a dumb idea.
And what do you want to say that? Games of various scale, with different developers, with different purposes, with different developments, one of them crap – in a word, completely incomparable things.
And most importantly-dude spend time on something useful, they really do Zen, such that all sorts of morons do not bomb later, that de “uuuu, zen Kakashechka, uuuuu!»At least you are a hundred times by gray – generally do not care: how much they need, they work so much. And it is better to let all kinds of geniuses in a white coat swear at hamsters and a long development process than hamsters and an unfinished release – so normal people will receive a normal release.
This system exists in order not to write. I do not agree? – Drink the minus. Why they don’t write – another question is already another.
In the SG, minuses generally mean little, especially when everyone who did not like you has already stuck the minuses to the profile. On Habre much tougher, for example.
AHEM.
> I was warned
Well, you understand. The fool itself.
> I bought (I was warned)
You bought an actually new full -fledged game for twenty bucks or 400 rubles, although it is clearly more expensive, and should become even more expensive with the release of a five -hour expansion, but will not become.
The game, by the way, was postponed for a year. For now.
Man, think about this: they want to do Zen Good. That is, not the same that individuals will liketo me, And such that he was a full -fledged chapter, with graphony, with a game design, here with this all. And for a completely small price, in fact. You just need to wait a little more. Year? Two? Maybe. But it will come out and it will Legendary.
Morbrovion was made for six or seven years, it is still a baguid and does not look nice. He was far from perfect, but he went out after a long time.
Skyblivion has a chance to go out after many years, because the developer is serious.
Skywind turned into a jerk in a circle in order to fill the portfolio. He will not come out for a very long time.
Lost alpha came out shit. Her addition was even worse.
Black Mesa fully reached 80%. Only 20. By the standards of remakes/transfers, this is a huge success, and these 20% will only fix it.
You are like a person who complains that the dog broke his pants because he climbed over the fence with the inscription “Caution, an evil dog!". The developers honestly said that there is no xena in the sold version and they did not even approach him. About to give someone part of the work-and there is no question. Why? The part of the game that we had showed to us showed that the developers really love their game and do everything so that it becomes better. Grinding what the other ten times would call a “ready-made product”, finding a balance between “this HP” and something new. And here is not just part of the game, but the most original part, which cannot be given to some left hands for anything. The creation of someone else’s world, which should look at the same time by Ksen and at the same time acquire new details that will really be accepted as natural parts of Xen, show how alien he is for people and at the same time native to fans of the game. You can’t do this from the bay of the baraeh, but this is the work of not only those who draw concepts, but primarily designers who create detailed levels (maps) of the game. Naturally, for developers who want to withstand the standard for themselves, to look around and make a gloss all the time, stretching the development time, but improving the quality of the result.
There is nothing to admire there. Atmosphere? An indescribable design for which you will look at the level, and not run headlong forward?! I doubt very much.
But no. Experimentally verified: a comment that has received 60 minuses almost does not affect karma
But the ability to stick the assessment for this is made so as not to answer, but simply agree to agree.
To defend your opinion, and if you just bang minus and left, then you don’t have it, and just refusing to accept an objective, often true point of view.
That’s Soome Bullshit Here.
I disagree with the person, but he didn’t dug me into dick -> I put a minus and went on.
If some vegetable once again curses on rustle 2017 for the fact that this is not the soap rustle 2, I immediately understand that this person is a vegetable, and arguing with it means to waste time.
About objective and true – generally a gun. I do not agree, but did not challenge – it means that you do not have your own opinion, and in general this is an objective and true opinion. Bliss.
Well, unlike the DNF, the Black Mountain did not disappoint almost all the faithful Zhdunov, and actually, Black Mesa was released back in 2012. And yes, call it
Somehow incorrectly, in the first part Zen occupied only four chapters, three of which were rather short. The promise to expand Zen appeared after the release of the paid version to smooth out the degree of guilt.
Well, an unpopular opinion – in the original Zen was much weaker than the complex, and I do not think that it will change a lot in the remake. Is it worth waiting?
