Barney’s Tale - Half-Life 2

About

Barney’s Tales is a total conversion of the original Half-Life Blue Shift add-on. Source Engine, used in mod, will allow us to visit the world of the scary Black Mesa Research Facility once more.
Security officer Barney Calhoun, undecided major, was going on his first shift in a research facility. He put on his uniform, got his Glock-17 in the armory and set out for the Sector 3. Suddenly, Barney felt an explosion and the lift he was going by fell down. Next thing he saw when consciousness returned was a strange alien tearing a scientist.
With the personnel and security officers at his side Barney must escape the Black Mesa before it becomes a blazing crater…

The development team is working at some innovations of Barney’s Tales:

Planned Features
  • Authentic feedback as at present shooting.
  • There will be no invented commandos - troops are made on real prototypes of US Army soldiers. All events occur in desert-mountain place, that’s why the camouflage of the paratroopers would be appropriate.
  • Realistic models of weapons, every nut or screw is considered.
  • Techniques added - player will be able to drive some.
  • Lots of tasks using physics will be involved.
  • HDR-lighting will be added.
  • Rather than in the original Blue Shift the storyline is presented in another view.
  • The plot is expanded, even new chapters are added.
