The Otis VA is perfect, they actually managed to get the clumsyness and comedy that he had on the original games. By far my favorite HL character,
True man
they should make a sequel to Blue shift involving these same characters. Taking place between the events of Black Mesa and the Events of Alyx. For one thing we still don't know how the Vortiguants went from being enemies to allies. I would like to think that Barney may have been involved. What we need is an Otis Half-life episode.
We noticed that you love this character by avatar
Otis should've appeared during the war against the Combine
@@MrChickennugget360 Honestly, I'd love for them to have a game take place during the 7 hour war and showcase all the major horrific events of it, all while taking the perspective of Barney and give an explanation to Rosenburg's absence

Nice use of the Wilhelm scream here lol, this is gold
Yoo i didnt know someome noticed it aswelll lol iconic scream
Blue Shift always has a special place in my heart. I remember seeing my cousin play the very first version at his house one time and I was hooked. I was 10 at the time and I asked my mom if she could get me the game to play at home. We didn't have very much money at that time so she said no. I sadly acknowledged and went on with life. On that Christmas that same year, she didn't just get me Blue Shift, but the Half Life Platinum Collection that had all the different Half Life versions, including Blue Shift on it. Needless to say, I was at the top of the moon when I unboxed my present. It is a memory that I still hold dearly to me till this day.
I am very much financially well off now and I take care of both my parents and send them on holidays every year. I will never forget what they have done for me and never will for the rest of my life.
This was very sweet to hear, genuinely made me smile! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I hope you continue living with life full of prosperity 🖤

Best days of life..playing Blue Shift on Christmas break, no school to worry about... The early 2000s was truly a magical time

Good job man ! Heaven is uunder mothers feet
I am so happy that the voice actor for Guards is the same one that voiced them in Black Mesa. I couldn't imagine anyone else voicing them (except Mike of course but he is a bit old now). Otis's voice actor is great as well
Why thank you :)
lol
Isnt Otis' voice actor the same voice actor for barney?
@@ADcommenter in the original it was, but BMBS has two different people
Ehh, I think Mike still has it in him.
It's such a small detail, but adore how the animators opted to have Barney actively take one clip from his vest as he is actively replacing the partially spent one when reloading when you reload and don't have an empty gun.
Yeah. Also that animations where Barney fully inspects the weapons like holding the submachine gun grenade or opening up the satchel with C4 inside. "Reload, Calhoun" also a really nice addition to NPC interaction.
You just explained nearly 2 years of questioning how guns in video games worked after I got introduced to VR shooters. I literally thought it was impossible how the system works. I bet if half life Alyx let you keep partially used magazines it would have made more sense.
@@yourlilbrudder5766 honestly, the varied reloads based on whether your gun is empty or not has been a thing for a while in the newer call of duty games. for all their technical achievements, i've never understood why valve is so slack when it comes to that particular level of attention to detail
the scientist that fell in to the acid returns as a skeleton if you wait a minute
Mags are not clips
love how barney's first instict when seeing a marine is to start blasting
probably jelaous he couldnt get in one
I actually played both versions. If you go along with the military they're passive until they ask you to "check the ID on this scientist", you realize you're now leaning over the pit where they were dumping bodies earlier, and they all take the safety off and start shooting you.
@@aldrichhf35 which is a surprise considering the shit he has been through.

Something I believe a lot of people who dismiss Blue Shift (and even some who enjoy it) don't realize is that part of Blue Shift's experience is the world building it creates of the Black Mesa facility. I'm more than pleased to see that HECU Collective understands that and has already expanded upon it better than the original Blue Shift did in its entirety. The NPC interactions in Chapter 4 here are really fun and flesh out that world building of the 'other side' of Black Mesa the original Blue Shift set out to explore. Hypothetically if you were to play Black Mesa and BM:Blue Shift before going into Half Life 2 for the first time, BM:Blue Shift seems to be a promising transition into the more character dialogue based narrative of HL2.
I wanna say "I can't wait for more," but I'm sure the wait for Chapter 5 will be all the more worthwhile
Im very hyped for chapter 5. This team proved what they can do with Azure Sheep's remake Part 1. Hope they keep the oppressive, frantic aspects of Blue Shift's Xen levels. Wonder if we will see Nihilanth's tower.
@@Medicalguy I'm heavily anticipating how Xen will look in this. I'm curious to which Black Mesa chapters' aesthetics will be borrowed for Focal Point, but I'm willing to put my bet on the first Xen chapter. It'll be real interesting to wait out and see
I love how they integrated Otis and a cast of brand new characters to replace odd interactions like "No I'm not Dr. Rosenberg, but you'll still help me, right?" NOPE * slams shipping container and keeps looking *
@@MegaChickenfish yknow, looking back, slamming the shipping container on them was probably the safer option.
Either way, I love me some Otis. I'm glad he's utilized for more than a couple vending machine jokes this time around
The original Blue Shift (and Decay) was already somewhat of a transition into the character-heavy stuff in terms of focus. Glad you pointed it out though.
8:18 that tiny detail of the guard pushing the door is so cool and neat to me
I just love how Blue Shift got fleshed out. The NPCs really made me care about them and it made me going through sadness and hate to new Vortigaunts to worry and happiness of seeing the guard buddy again. Their dialogues are also hilarious.
Also, the train yard! It went from a sad excuse to huge, plausible section full of activity!
*2:38:06* *”Only Veteran Half life Gamers remember that First AID machine and H.E.V Station.”*
Yesss I saw he missed that. I was like Noooooo!
The teleporter section gave me goosebumps.
16:01 this ost is awesome. It gives you the vibe that you are the security team going on duty to protect black mesa I love that ost
Half an hour in and I’m absolutely speechless. They did amazing with black mesa, they brought half life completely to life! This game however I think is even leaps and bounds beyond that. feels like there are no NPCs in this game, only people. It’s incredible. Definitely will buy this if it goes on steam!
Agreed mate, devs did an incredibly good job
I think this mod is available on steam or moddb for free
Its a free mode of black mesa
its crazy, if there is no legal reason to prevent it. why is this mod not advertised on the store page! i just got this from the winter sale and it took youtube algorithm to find out about this 😂😭
@@Budcalledkind I literally looked it up by chance! Crazily, I’ve only just played blue shift and opposing force after completing half life 1 in 2000 and the rest when they came out 😂 so I’d just finished both and as I’d finished blue shift I thought I’d search up if they were doing a black mesa game for it and lo and behold they we’re already afew chapters in! Like what were the chances? I’d have never found the game otherwise!
I love the Black Mesa Incident-era games so much and it's fantastic to see them looking so much better than ever before. Much respect to the dev team.
Man, this is insane. Many things are cooler than in original, but this guard section is best (IMO). Sure could use their help back in the he day. Also, their presence makes things more realistic and their dialogues is enjoyable.
Separate like for Wilhelm's scream.
Do you know that they used Wilhelm's Scream a lot in the classic Star wars films
@@TherealBlackSkull117 I'd be surprised if they didn't. Although I was surprised even more to hear it in Twilight Saga (can't recall the exact film though).
2:14:30 if you missed it
of course i honestly hoped it was better than the original game. the og game was atrociously lackluster , too short , boring , few enemies type , repetitive places etc the ones who defend it needs to go to an asylum. crazy how nostalgia can make people toxic.
52:26 classy mapper knew EXACTLY what he was doing when he placed that scorch mark over the C in CANAL
Where?
Literally my ONLY issue with this game is the line at 1:39:05. "Going HAM" was not an expression at the time of the Black Mesa incident. Other than that, this mod is basically perfect.
But ham is so tasty
I guess in the half life universe Murdoch invented the phrase
Why is that phrase seem bad?
How about the special treatment?
I'm really glad that they added another vehicle for the military. I know those other double-rotor helicopters weren't in Half Life but so weren't the Humvees and it really fits.
Btw, those are Chinooks, and the other is VTOLS.
@@paolomiguelpimentel6120 O yeah I forgot the name of those but I though the originals are called Ospreys?
@@delta9685 yep I think they're V-22 Ospreys in real life, but categorised as an VTOL Aircraft, Vertical Take Off and Landing Aircraft.
@@paolomiguelpimentel6120 Ah well yeah that's correct. If there is another thing I would like to see the military use in Black Mesa then it's some kind of transport helicopter or just Huey helicopter for troop transport (or I guess Blackhawk since Huey would not be in service in the 90s)
@@delta9685 Yeah lol, I think the Blackhawks may fit with the Black Ops Soldiers in the future mods for Black Mesa or Operation Black Mesa.
Chapter 4 is basically just Kevin Sisk talking to Kevin Sisk talking to Unstoppable Giant and Barney
I wouldn’t have it any other way 😎👍
I really can't overstate how epic they made Barney look in the remake. Like, we already knew what kind of a badass he was in Half life 2, but this game cranks it up to 11. Truly the remake Blue Shift deserves.
I like how they made entirely new reload and interaction animations for Barney. It really adds him more personality and shows how every character in the half life universe behaves differently in certain situations. Just like people in real life.
I never got into playing any of the original expansions. But after watching recent revisits and play throughs of the originals over recent years seeing what they've done with this Blue Shift remake just like what the Crowbar Collective did with the original Black Mesa remake of HL is just amazing.
I know a lot of people get tired of another creators take on the Black Mesa facility and think it's over done. But I love it, especially if it's a well done small add-on side story map for the Black Mesa game itself. Because seeing someone else's idea of what another location within the Black Mesa facility looks like as a whole just shows how absolutely massive the place is. That's why I absolutely love the Pre-Disaster mod maps of the original story maps. Because they're given areas for you to go that were behind a closed door or hallway that was just there to make you wonder where it lead to. Even if the current mods are still broken I love what they did with the Bio Dome facility from the Questionable Ethics chapter with all of the added locations to explore. I hope they someday update them. :)
now we need the remake of the opposing force
There is a seperate team working on an Opposing Force and Blue Shift remake in one, it's on Steam called "Operation: Black Mesa", it's not by Crowbar Collective though and the release date is still TBD.
@@drunkonsuccess779 I don't think it will ever be finished tbh
@@E55666 well black mesa took 12 years so there is a chance
I think they are over. I don’t want any other models than ones in Black Mesa.
@@E55666 they're still humans with everyday lives
Plus they've covered alot (by alot i mean an unestimated amount of alot) of development ground ground
we've waited longer for Black Mesa to release fully
Just give 'em some time
Man, everythings: the map designs, the new mechanics, voice actors, music, … just spectacular🎉
Don't forget the NPCs and props
tbh the HECU introduction (when you dont just immediately kill them) is pretty cool and i genuinely thought they were chill for a second
If they where actually trying to help Maybe they where on goose 3,4,6, or 7 and just like shepherds team, didn’t get the memo they where killing civis as well as aliens, tho I think that part was great
There is so much I love about this mod. The characters, the military, Barneys abilities etc. Its impossible to explain
7:54 there is our free man himself gordon freeman
2:23:30 I guess Calhoun has a strong plot armor since the marines could have just ended him right there and took away his firearms that were theirs, not to mention it's their fallen comrades'.
15:20
I think the ballistics team should take a look at those targets... the bullets are ricocheting back at the shooter. lol
I had no idea this was so far along. Azure Sheep blew my mind even if I did have some major bugs with it. This is looking FINE.
Wow. They REALLY extended the steam tunnel section at the start.
That could be considered a whole new level on its own.
2:00:33 I didn’t know you could hear the HECU die if you shot them fast enough. Damn they put so much detail in this.
This mod is full of amazing details like that. There's a moment where Rosenberg asks you to break a wall with your crowbar, but if you blow it up with a rocket launcher, one of the guards will say something like "Damn, Calhoun, he said crowbar".
@@miumusic6510 No way! I have to try that now haha
I love how they kept the way the story is to the original but also added new mechanics to the game like variants throwing grenade type things it's an amazing idea and their doing an great job. By the way i've only played the original blue shift once like 5 years ago so I have no idea if the grenade mechanics are in the original. I also found the original chapter 3 sewer area very confusing with the explosive boxes and crusher thing the first one you pushed off but you're supposed to find another one wich I found at the elevator with the vortigaunts but it didn't let you push the box anywhere.
I honestly think this is what the original Blue Shift should have done. They couldn't reuse the new enemies from Opposing Forces, or make new enemies for Blue Shift. The best alternative would have been to add on to the og enemies. Oh well, classic Blue Shift is still a solid game and this looks like a truly amazing remake.
1:46:28
Guard: "Don't forget to reload."
Bolloxed: *reloads*
IMMERSION 100
SATISFACTION 100
Ikr
I like how Barney holds his guns differently than Gordon.
I mean the security guards are trained
13:54 "Ah, hello Gordon. Another day, another dollar."
What amount of love, passion, fanatism must be accumulated within to pull off such an amazing production. My endless admiration to the DEV team:)
25:15 The first time I saw this part of the elevator just before the Cascade of Resonance I was simply immersive and afraid, scared, as if I were really there in Calhoum's place. The building of suspense in this part is impeccable, even months, when you don't see it again, as if it were the first time.
Too excited for the full release of BM: Blue Shift, Operation Black Mesa and Guard Duty. That after Black Mesa and HL: Alyx gave us more hope for new releases of this incredible universe that is Half-Life/Portal
I love how saving the scientists actually means something now, and the group are used going forward.
1:46:49 Press F to respect the great H.E.C.U soldier
I don't see any hecu soldier idk what you are talking about
@@headsethub6716 1:46:42 Right when the guard kicked the door, there was someone standing behind it and got killed. You notice blood clipped through and on the wall.
Can confirm it was the HECU soldier when I played this today.
If the xen level is anything like it was in black mesa, it's going to be well worth the wait
They should sell it as a standalone game when it's finished, I'd pay for it
I really hope they remake opposing force too
I agree with the part of paying it like an official DLC, this is just too good to be free. They really deserve money for this.
Also, there's a remake of Opposing Force on the way, but made by Tripmine Studios. Hopefully we'll see more of it soon.
@@Z-1991 normally i love free stuff, but i feel this level of quality deserves a paid release as a standalone game instead of just being a mod for black mesa
The way he was checking the helmet before putting it on wanted me to add a background music: "Bal koteeee! Darassum Koteee!"
the attention to detail that has been shown with black mesa and this is absolutely insane. you can truly tell its a labor of love, can even read the labels on the damn chip bags that come out of the vending machines. and all of the little random wires, pipes, and just stuff in general that you would naturally have in a deep underground facility like this, its bonkers. an awesome achievement!
“I’d be surprised if there was one good brain among them!”
*dies in an elevator while that “one good brain” goes on to save mankind*
You can see that this mod was made with love. Astonishing work.
10:52 I like to think that because of experiments mirrors become portals to mirror universe so often that everyone stopped paying any attention to this.
i LOVE it that Otis, a female scientist, and a maintanance staff member have some protagonism and probs are gonna escape with calhoun along with the others.
I really hope they make it, because itll show that, even though black mesa was pretty divided up based on everyone's professions, when everything literally goes to hell, that doesn't matter anymore and they all got to work together to live
I say HECU Collective are doing a good job so far. I would gladly pay for a polished, full version.
Add Operation: Black Mesa to your wishlist it could be out soon
@@roycechuaThat is a different developer if I'm not mistaken.
It's amazing how much different yet true to canon this remake is. Can't praise the Black Mesa dev team enough.
Surprisingly, this is a different team called the HECU Collective not Crowbar Collective
25:39 Looks a lot like the trams from Alien: Isolation
I'm so happy they implemented gordon in the beginning, the attention to detail with both games HL and BM are just so exciting.
Já existia no original , o Gordon até dá uma olhada pro Calhoun.
Half-Life Security Guards and Hecu Grunts are never that powerful unless we control them as players...... I take it back, after watching2 friendly guards in action, I hope it means we get some company in "Power Struggle" chapter
And gotta say, those hands models with the amazing animations truly helps giving the feeling of playing in the shoes of Barney Calhoun.
it's great!
It's amazing how mod makers can make games as good as big companies!
thank you for sending this to us.
Боже, да это же настоящий шедевр!!! Группа фанатов делает проект, который по качеству превосходит большинство ААА-проектов. Ребята, мы в вас верим. Осталось по сути только 2 главы, не считая короткой финальной. Жду не дождусь этой игры в стиме!
Формально она уже в стиме, но только в мастерской а не в качестве отдельной игры.
Это лучший фанатский проект после Black Mesa, никто еще не смог так круто передать всю атмосферу. Вот бы вы ребята OpFor сделали, я бы такой shut up and take my money

Still Hyped and Waiting Tripmine Studios games, meanwhile I enjoyed much this Blue Shift Remake in Black Mesa. Good job HECU Collective ♥️
This is absolutely beautiful!
Greatness and Excellent Bolloxed!! You are the best playing for Black Mesa Blue Shift Chapter 1 to 4! The game is very incredible and important. The Half-Life Blue Shift Remake it is adorable. I really like this Black Mesa Blue Shift.
Ai generated ass comment
Imagine being a OSHA inspector during the resonance cascade…
2:32:25 I'm so happy for that Rosenberg know the barrier is broken before just like Half-Life Blue Shift
This look so awesome, the only thing I could of wished for was for subtitles, I really wanna hear what that other Barney and Otis were saying during the firefights and stuff
Also the odd voiceline here and there that would get muffled through walls
Well, the alternative is Sexy Nutella
@@Psi-9_AbyssGazers this is so funny without context
15:24 Oh god that ricochet. Black Mesa is a hazardous work environment.
Is it implied that everything was malfunctioning that morning because the Administrator diverted power to run the Anti-Mass Spectrometer at higher capacity?
Now I'll be waiting for Opposing Force.
I love this walkthrough, it has a feeling of you being a highly trained professional
It's such an amazing game. I can't wait to play it myself.
I don't know if anyone remembers, but after Barney gets back from the alien world, he is told to go down to get another power cell. Rosenburg tells him that other people have gone down. I have a bad feeling those 4 are the people that go down. Which is sad. I would have liked to see them survive.
finally a mod that has proper *gun range safety* mechanism
HECU Collective are the only people who are making things happen instead of talking about them for years. They're the #1 in the Half Life modding community at the moment
Oh sweet! New chapters out!
Oh yes ... been waiting this from the HL and BM master 🏆
Love how you mess around at the first parts. The first parts are always a treat to explore.
THE SOUNDTRACK! AHHH!! iT'S SO GOOD!
39:27 I like The remake change the model of this security guard originally he looked normal but thanks to chapter 4 he’s the same security guard from chapter 3
Calhoun could of saved his fellow brother by pressing the down button once he got off.
Great mod, love the comradery between all the random workers in black mesa, the level design and music is great too. Plus I like how they switched up the animations for the guns in this to add a bit of variety from the OG black mesa, particularly for the "first time picking up this weapon" animations, loving the one for the shotgun 👏 Looking forward to the xen sections once this mod is fully complete 👌
But there'a two small nitpicky sections of dialogue in this mod:
-The scene where the female scientist locked inside that room is panicking and says something along the lines of "it doesn't matter if I'm locked in here the aliens can teleport around" to the guard outside, right before a vortigaunt teleports into the room and blasts her.
-The part where the construction worker is going off about how the military is on their way to hopefully save everyone, then the literal next room over there's military personnel dumping dead scientist bodies down into the water.
Both scenes seemed like they're basically setting you up for what is exactly about to happen a few seconds later, but it's meant to be played off like it was just a total coincidence that they mentioned it beforehand. Seems a little hamfisted and too on-the-nose in my opinion.
A scientist and guard both mention the HECU arriving in Office Complex so I’m not too sure about #2 unfortunately
+Bolloxed
This is a really well done: and while I’m obviously missing what exactly they changed about the previous chapters, I really appreciate you playing through them again if only to show whatever minor things there must be. 1 thing I would like to mention is that while I know there’s a lot going on, might I suggest trying to stand closer to a character when they’re speaking a line of scripted dialogue; as it is very tough to hear some of it (especially in the old teleporter room) in this particular video. That being said though I would also just like to say that it is very enjoyable to watch you play games on your channel, and I would just like to let you know how much I appreciate all the work you must do behind the scenes in order to make your videos so entertaining and enjoyable to watch.
Как мне нравятся твои прохождения, ты не просто спидранишь, а проходишь да так, будто ты заместо реального героя))) будт Барни, это ты сам))
This is not a speedrun, it is a regular full playthrough
Eggcellent, can hardly wait for the last chapter.
It's nice how all the guards have different looks and personalities in this game
the Gordon Freeman detail on 7:52 and 12:33 are goosebumps
I like how it's so much like the original! Nostalgia! Barney's one of the lucky ones here for surviving what happened at this facility. Like Freeman and Shepherd.
Am I the only one who drools over every inch of tram footage I ever get to see ?
7:55 "Oh, looks like I'm not the only one who's late. SUCKERRRRR!"
7:55 That's So Cool That Black mesa in blue shift you can see Freeman.
Black Mesa is such a beautiful and huge faciiity. Now I just want to walk there before cascade resonanse event and just see how everyone have a normal day
I was waiting for this
Half Life: Glock Simulator do be looking rad. Thanks for the playthrough B!
This game really changing everything. The layout,the level etc. One thing i love in this game is the graphic, trully masterpiece..
cant wait the end ! great great ! lot of enjoyment i got to play this !
I like the attention paid to the safety detail of the facility. OSHA would be pleased.
on the other hand with Aperture…
2:14:30 Freaking Wilhelm!
The Section A-17 Prototype Labs look so good that it makes me swoon lol.
Nice work HECU Collective 😁
Was anyone else expecting to hear Gordon yell out “sucker!!!” When he was passing by Barney on the tram? Some freeman’s mind meme reference
I just realized something. The player seems to know his way around certain areas. At first, I chalked it up to having played it a few times over. But then it made perfect sense that a security officer would know his way around his job site.
I'm glad to see Otis in the Source Engine!
Thanks, very cool!
Nice gameplay, Bolloxed!
the next thing you know, they pump out Black Mesa: Opposing Forces in like a few years
This mod has got to be one of the best mods ever made for any game ever
The overhaul of black mesa and this is soooo fuckin good
Hopefully there will be opposing force
MASTERPIECE
