Super Big News, everyone!

Tetsu0, unfortunately I have been far too busy over the past week to have my head explode - the timing simply wasn't appropriate. It was, I think you'll agree, however, for a good cause.

Ladies and Gents of TWHL, I am extremely excited to finally present The Core's official trailer.

CLICK DAT SHIT

Rest assured resources can now be diverted to head-exploding endavours, but you'll have to wait til I get a hair cut because it's super embarassing right now.

Thanks for your comment on the video page, dude! <3

Also, that feel when one of your favourite artists not only condones your use of their song, but actively compliments it!

I approve.

But only if this means I'll play it BEFORE 2020.

Very impressive trailer. Can't wait to play it!

I tried a new chipotle mayonnaise sample at the market today.

That trailer was equally as intense.

Well that's a major publicity boost.
:D
Though I have to say I'm really dissapointed in the lack of knowledge shown by the Kotaku community.
They should have used the recent "Black Mesa Source" graphics engine instead. It was a complete graphical redo of HL that is far superior to the original and is great fun to play.
What this guy is saying is that a) Black Mesa is just a graphical overhaul and not a remake, and b) You should have been working on something NOBODY HAD ACCESS TOO since you started the mod years ago.

Seeing a lot of hate on the comments there, no matter, recognition by Kotaku is a great thing!
Edit: Lol some guy on a facebook page I'm in just posted this as well :D

The only complaint I'm seeing is that it's on Vanilla Goldsrc and not some fancy, modified engine, or some other junk related to GoldSrc's age.

But uh... Kotaku. Huge exposure, just (from my experience) not the brightest viewerbase/writers. So yeah, don't be disheartened.
Crypt Crypt120% sorry!

Also, what percentage do you think the mod is done? Give it your best estimate.

SnC and possibly TWHL on the map now thanks to you fine gentlemen.
I too envy you :)

But I don't envy you now that you have all this media exposure you need to release this soon :pwned:

Do certain people knows how to vote an "UPCOMING" Mod on ModDB?
Damn, some people minds are full-of-fuck.

Anyway, I'm very happy for your HUGE success guys!

Next task: Steam Greenlight? :3

@Tet: According to Archie's video from a while ago, TWHL is dead. So by putting The Core on the map, he actually took TWHL off the map. What a jerk!
Penguinboy PenguinboyHaha, I died again!

Is The Core going to be the next Black Mesa?

Hahaha. The Core can enter the "Chamber of Merit" (Translated to english)

I think we should rename map of the month to the Chamber of Merit

Not bad at all for two level designers and a programmer. You two are now without question the golden standard for all TWHLers to strive for.

With your popularity, it wouldn't be hard to snatch up some decent talent. Would you take a extra people on to help finish the mod?

Bruce's post is also out of line.

I have a question. Answer now or on the next Q&A video, doesn't matter: Is the gman in The Core?
