- You play as Barney.... one of his 1 million clones at least.
Video without voice: • Half-Life... but as Ba...
Azure Sheep is a really old mod (or at least I think it is), because it's page on moddb says it was released in 2001. In this mod you play as Barney, who goes on a massive trip to save one of his friends named Kate. And the half-life AI, didn't help me at all. It just made things worse. :/

Blue Shift: What Barney actually did during the Black Mesa Incident
Azure Sheep: The embellished story that Barney tells everyone about what he did during the Black Mesa Incident
"Yeah dude, let me tell you and then i saw Freeman in his sports car and he was like BRRRROM BRRROM in his cool ass ride and then shit exploded EVERYWHERE and this helicopter gliched out and had to reload my save and enemies appeared out of NOWHERE, like a dozen of them and i took every single one of them out and then Barnette was so impressed we make out right there on the spot. And then after dying two dozen times i found freeman again and get this... HE TALKED TO ME, like OMG dude, for real and then he went into a scriped scene where some grunts beat the shit out of him"
Barney would continue for 3 hours to ramble about his alcohol induced story.
Just Barney is a different character, funnily enough.
yeah im soooo cool. wow what good luck i was in half life 2
@@DarkOmegaMK2 nah thats just one of my clones
@@Blue_Shift421 You mean Berney?
The lore of Azure Sheep is a bit confusing, But in General It's actually nice mod.
I didn't really care. I literally played it in a tiny phone with an emulator

Who wants some facts?
- The Barney you play as is literally called 'Just Barney', since canonically he forgot the rest of his name in all the chaos. This is canon.
- You're right - you look different to all the other Barneys because of your character's shirt. It's a darker blue compared to everyone else's... for some reason.
- Switching weapons is slower because you don't have an HEV suit and its 'weapon selection system' to speed up the process. Except it doesn't get faster when you get an HEV suit, so...
- The new noise for the health stations is a low-effort attempt to remove the HEV suit charging part of the sound effect. As you noted, it sounds awful.
- Being able to reload your pistol with full ammo is a holdover from early versions of Half-Life and isn't exclusive to this mod - older mods with custom code have the same 'feature'.
- The weird corridors (which really are all over the place and are the main reason I hate this mod) is a result of the mapper, known as Dav. It's just how he makes maps.
- You didn't get a crowbar - instead, you can find a pool cue. It was near the beginning of the mod... but as you demonstrated, it's also super easy to miss!
- The little purple creatures are called Chumtoads, and were an enemy modelled but not really used from the original game. Mods tend to use them a fair bit for variety.
- New guns! No idea what the pistol is, but the new machine gun is CLEARLY the Pulse Rifle from Aliens.
- Adrian and Gordon share the same voices. Surprised you didn't pick up on that - the accent's pretty distinctive.
- Incidentally, there's a fan-made HD pack for Azure Sheep that DOES give Adrian all his weapons. It's hilarious seeing them all strapped to his back while he just uses a pistol.
- The red Panther creature is another one basically cut from the original game. You're meant to shoot him in his eye.
- ...again, the fish creature is one not really used from the original game.
- The ending has way too many helicopters. Four in total over two maps! It's a real nightmare on Hard.
- This came out before Blue Shift, by a couple of months IIRC.
- There IS a sort-of sequel/spin-off mod called Point of View - it has you controlling a Vortigaunt and if you thought this mod got silly... hoo boy.
Finally, this mod was (partially) remade for Black Mesa. Only the first part is finished, but it's REALLY good. The same team decided to put it on pause to remake Blue Shift, which they're working on to this day - the third chapter (just after the elevator crash) is due to come out in a few weeks.
the pistol is a Beretta 92FS
@@alec6117 That was it, thanks.
Isnt point of view a half life decay cheat code
@@dkskcjfjswwwwwws413 Point of View is an original mod made by the same team who did Azure Sheep.
What you're describing is known as Alien Mode - it's a bonus feature accessed as part of Decay (which, for those who aren't familiar, was a co-op mode included on the PS2 port of Half-Life).
You could access Alien Mode by achieving A rank on all of Decay's missions (which no-one did), or by finding a VERY well hidden cheat code in one of the standard levels.
Although Point of View clearly took inspiration from it, Alien Mode is an entirely separate mod that doesn't really have any connection beyond a similar premise.
It's funny you mention this, because it was only about a week ago that Alien Mode was actually released as a fan-made PC mod: www.moddb.com/mods/alien-mode
holy shit
Azure Sheep is such a neat time capsule. A great mod with its use of cut alpha enemies, levels and story ideas. The level design really is lacking with lots of empty corridors.
The G-Man role in this mod makes sense if you go back to pre-HL2 days where it was a very popular fan-theory that the G-man was the administrator of Black Mesa.
GMan being the administrator was the original idea before Valve changed it.
Oh boy, Azure Sheep, never finished it, it's a perfect mod for those who've wondered what the facility would be as a maze.
@@T405_MN sup
it's actually not a maze once you memorize it
lol
12:15 Adrian: (Breaks the door)
Adrian: YES
(two aliens appear and bring him to somewhere)
they brought him to Brazil. Space Brazil.
Note that Valve actually stole that idea: the Vorts do the exact same thing (with better FX) to rescue Alyx from the Citadel. Considering we see Adrian go to Xen but then later he's back, that suggests the Vorts "borrowed" him from G-Man's purgatory to help Just Barney... but then took him away again, probably so G-Man didn't notice he was missing.
@@lagomoof neat ide, but the timelines don't align.
interactive buddy pfp
3:53 That Freeman is a spy!
no! He has voice bc he talk in half life 1 but you cannot hear
Nah there are lines in half life 2 that states he was a mute.
4:52 I swear this has to be a reference to that one skyscraper entrance in the first matrix movie. Like the pillars and metal detectors just give off that vibe.
It most likely is. I don't remember if the pillers were breakable in the mod, but if they weren't, they should've been.
@@peppermillers8361 they are, just look closely at one of the episodes for Arlen's Mind where he gets trapped behind one of the pillars and is hit in the head with a brick because the turrets activated due to a fly of all things.
This mod breaks canon on so many levels
i mean, this mod never take itself seriously and it's a fan made mod
so why are you taking it seriously?
lol
I love how this mod was released only a couple months after blue shift.
I was gonna say "that explains the crappy brushwork", but They Hunger was released before Opposing Force, so... I'm just going to shut up instead.
@@revolutionstudios5052 wdym brushwork
@@dkskcjfjswwwwwws413 The walls, the boxes they're made of, they're called "brushes" in Hammer.
The Black Mesa version of this mod is actually kinda better, especially since they make it have more canon-friendly moments by having the player character(Justin Barnes) gets shot by a black ops(which happens in original Half-Life) when he meets Gordon and replacing the special forces(the grunts with the pulse rifles) with the black ops from Half-Life Opposing Force which makes more sense all things considered. It also greatly improves the map designs completely, so yeah it's pretty obvious which version I prefer.
wait there is a black mesa conversion?
There’s a black mesa mod? Where
@@NoahGooder yes.
6:07 The marines have Pulse Rifles now
9:23 kinda cool to see Shepard shooting aliens in space lol
Well, I mean the Barney'a was a nice addition, otherwise - sections of this mod get rather confusing, and man... The campaign long escort quest in GoldSRC - now I know what my hell will look like.
Us chareter us barn
13:09 that's the cut enemy, panthereye it was in your absolute zero and they hunger videos.
5:45 you were supposed to get a different melee weapon that you missed.
I considered Azure Sheep to be the best Half Life mod until I played Echoes. Really love this mod.
“Half life… but as Barney”
so half life blue shift
Honestly if you were to tell me this was the alpha campaign for Blue Shift produced by Valve I would totally believe it. Like the gameplay and models were complete but the voice actors didn't get their hands on the game yet
Loved it, even if it was a bit janky and corridor rich.
Coming from a guy who could just dwell in BM corridors 24/7 and listen to the sexy ambiance sounds.
7:49 I love how the scientist in the test tube in the back just got left like no cares about him

I love you even more for covering this mod, it's one of my favourites even if the helicopter at the starts fails to crash as it should a lot of times
2:42 no way its been ages since I've seen that bug, a long time ago you used to be able to reload with a full gun and it was the best
you still can in the original half life. just not the source version, even works in opposing force and blue shift.
@@yungmattyk no it doesn't work in the Og half-life anymore they fixed it
@@unoriginalperson72 still works on mine then
@@yungmattyk you probably have an outdated version
@@unoriginalperson72 i have the most recent steam updated version.
I remember seeing your older videos with text on screen, I had to pause everytime you had to say something. And your voice makes this a whole lot better, it feels like you are actually talking to NPCs.
I ran out of rocket ammo for the final helicopter fight and so decided to fly into the sky and murder it with MP5 grenades. With how wacky this mod gets, it wouldn’t surprise me if that was the intended canon ending.
Overall a really fun mod, though. I especially liked the world design at the very beginning in the barracks. Lots of little details to explore.
"this a new gun" - sees an M41 from ALIEN...

I have not.

@@Cat_Garfield No but its a cool letter
2:54 What about Half-life echoes? There was a security guard with HEV suit
Echoes is from 2018. Azure Sheep is from 2001.
I love how you are very relaxed to express emotions, it gives a touch of sarcasm.
* You can get a melee weapon at the start of the game by exploring the lounge area. You can get a billiards cue with its own animations.
* The vortigaunts have faster casting by default, even on easier difficulties.
* The lack of any armor in the first half of the game before you get the HEV suit is the source of this mod's augmented difficulty, as well as the fact that they put in holstering animations, making weapon switching that much slower.
"the better blue shift"
Correction: *Half Life... but as Barney **#2828834797*
We need beer for Gordon Freeman RIGHT Now
I think the voices and the actors were perfect for their jobs.
Azure Sheep! I love this mod, It's one of my most played Half-Life mods along with USS Darkstar, They Hunger and Intolerable Threat.
I agree that yeah, Having to guide Kate around in the later parts does get annoying when you are playing on normal or hard, and the weapon swap delay is frustrating, But for me, This mod is everything Blue Shift SHOULD'VE been and Could've been if Gearbox had done more.
Thank you for listing these cool mods, i'll try to play them, do you recommend anything else?
@@arisaka233 a little late, but Echoes is good, and The Trap is very good if you're in for some Portal 1+ Half-Life 1 vibes
If you’re wondering where you were supposed to find the crowbar, it was at the beginning near a pool table, and it wasn’t a crowbar, it was a pool cue
11:38 FUN FACT: I actually headcanon Shephard having a similar accent to that.
Tbh same, I hc Gordon to have smth similar but deeper
The reason why Freeman and Walker have a Corvette and a fucking FERRARI respectively are also the reason why Black Mesa has so many horrible safety and maintenance problems.
actually when i played half life 1.0 waaaaaay back in my childhood you can reload the pistol without needing to reload
13:05 That looks the extra monster in Absolute Zero.
I don't remember that Adrian Shephard could appear in a sort of parking-entrance of Black Mesa, in Opposing Force i don't remember to see that.
the voice they gave Mr freeman sounded like 🤓
7:01
our own race turning against us
The "Nope!" sound is from a Doom clone called Strife: Quest For The Sigil (great game).
And the endless Glock reload bug is a staple of Half-Life.
lam please play this
Gordon was never intended to be "mute". The developers said they wanted the player to feel completely immersed in the character, and didn't want dialogue from the main character to distract from that feeling. It really works when you role play and actually talk to the NPCs while playing HL. It would make sense for Gordon to talk in this mod, however, because you are not playing as Gordon.
yeah, especially since barney is mute in blue shift(i think) and gordon has friends
HOWEVER, we would all be very angry if gordon started talking in an official half life game
Laseeeeeeeeer caution. Laseeeeeeeeer caution. Laseeeeeeeeer caution.
@@waffler-yz3gw i mean, due to half life 2, barney doesn't really need to be mute during the entirety of blue shift
The commentary added on top of the in-game dialogue is just something else.
Your videos are nice keep up the good work
About that beer i owe ya gordon freeman!
Dude this is the only game I can watch somebody else play and then myself go play it and have the same amount of excitement as your self lmao.
Dude your earned a sub from me, I fuckin love this game . Even tho I’m a sports centric channel I might post a half life play through lmao
7:47 Lol “Hey Barn! you came to rescue me. Im rescued.”
4:39 You know who else sucks at parking? MY MOM!
I love to think that Azure Sheep is what Barney telling everyone what he did during Black Mesa
Yup that's cannon
"He's not a very good parker." I guess that's why he's called Gordon Freeman and not Gordon Parker.
why did the resonance cascade started after when goblon got into black mesa with lamborghini with like 10 secs?
There was a transition where it fast forwarded time.
He's a highly trained professional and very late as well
lamwarp: OHHHH
vortigaunt(s): *this is free real estate*
LamWarp Is Keeping Half Life Alive. And I Liked That. Everyone Liked That
Yes
certainly one of the mods of all time
Hey, here are some mods worth playing IMHO (if you haven't already) :
Half-Life : Heart of Evil (not the updated Napalm Edition, unless you like goofy)
Half-Life : Absolute Redemption
Half-Life : Echoes (I'm pretty sure you already played this one, it is a Valve quality mod)
Portal : Mel Stories (Valve quality mod again)
Gunman Chronicle (Not really a mod, it is a standalone game on GoldSrc engine and it is pretty good. It used to be sold at store but it is now an abandonware)
This is a Blue Shift Alternative Way
1:48 Maybe "rest" doesn't necessarily mean physical relief. And it shows both genders for that nice equality effect. An arcade room doesn't have to be confined to one gender!
2:27 Without a power armor suit that could help carry weapons efficiently...
2:58 In Blue Shift you picked up vests and helmets for armor.
3:53 He sounds really old for a 27-year-old.
4:40 That should inspire Half-Life fans to get a strawberry-pink, double silver-striped 1990's Camaro. Has any influencer pulled it off yet?
4:56 The Matrix lobby scene, though that came out some 2 years after HL1.
5:01 "They're not taking me seriously!" --Star Fox 64's Forever Train engineer
5:21 Well, the place in question IS called Black MESA, and MOST of the facility is underground within the New Mexico strata so there's all that. Not to mention that for 2003, you couldn't pull out a smartphone(imagine the craptastic reception issues IN a facility like that) and check up on recent developments. You got to put on your early 2000's thinking cap there, LamWarp. Lol.
5:32 Depending on the spec, it's anywhere from 600-750VDC. That's a lot of juice in that to move a tram car weighing a good ton or so. It's amazing that the character still has TOTAL FUNCTIONALITY OF HIS BODY especially if BOTH OF HIS FEET ARE WALKING ON THE RAIL!
5:37 Not to mention that the flight speed of the 40mm round is slow too. That always bugged me the way Valve programmed it, as if making it look like it was chunked out like a spring-loaded ball. No wonder people criticize 9mm so much, because a good high-caliber defense round would have dropped that grenadier hard and you would be spared from that grenade shot.
5:50 A baton wouldn't have the same utility as a crowbar or pipe wrench would have, even if the baton is better balanced for melee combat.
6:35 Ah, I should have known you as a true Quaker(see what I did there?) except you should have been bhopping the entire time if that was the case lol.
6:59 Obviously for research of course. Why did the Terran Federation take and hold a brain bug? To defeat the headcrab, we must UNDERSTAND the headcrab! But in the meantime let's teach our kids to smash baby headcrabs underfoot so they will do their civic part!
7:14 HEV suits aren't cheap, but I guess it wouldn't surprise me that our government can afford to give some of the SECURITY GUARDS those as well.
7:34 Chumtoads. Are they good pets to have?
7:43 I'm guessing that vortigaunts have evolved from chumtoads but seem to greatly enjoy a chimeric increase to their abilities from humans...
9:42 Two-toned nickel-plated sissy pistol. REAL MEN use Glock, as U.S. Marshal Gerard would say.
9:49 Literally the Colonial Marines Pulse Rifle. We now know that Black Mesa invented electronic pulse action, a novel technology that seeks to bring conventional firearms into the future(and especially against aliens like yautja and xenomorphs) because the tau cannons, gluon guns, and displacer cannons use depleted U-235. Obviously the Pulse Rifle is the most economical standard weapon to consider.
10:43 Already Old Black Mesa is like the Delta Labs of DooM 3.
11:27 Now if you've been in the military, because of the stressors and additional hazards of spec ops they would be much "douchier" than ordinary infantry joes who would have more of a life outside of the military, so that does make some sense.
11:36 Too bad the mod didn't use the Opposing Force grunt quotes.
11:48 You know, he TOO sounds very old for a 22-year-old...
12:07 I'm glad they did it that way because it makes him look tall standing that way. You want a bold and confident corporal standing tall and proud. Maybe he was real NCO material after all.
14:59 I actually looked it up that Netflix started on August 29, 1997. That's actually enough time to "Netflix and chill" if you have been ordering in DVDs.
15:05 Aww, how cute :3, but Barney and Kate forgot to pick up the chumtoad. Poor guy is about to get cooked by multithousand degrees..."quite so".
Not to mention that you can see shephard shooting the houndeyes on 9:23
3:57 It's a place in Apprehension, when that Barney, as you playing, is killed by Black Ops, and Gordon fight them
5:01 Place, where Gordon in Blue Shift starts, and then in Half-Life 1 and Barney's and station
true story while playing this I got to the helicopter part and kate kept dying I kept getting softlocked and I was stuck at one health... I cried for a while and then uninstalled it
Fan-made stuff like this that was made not long after the original came out is so impressive
It’s me Gordon, Barney from black masa.
Is it how Half-Life as Barney looked like before Blue Shift?
you forgor the pool stick hahahhaha
Honestly l love you content I really hope you get more subscribers
There was a good reskin pack for this mod, which replaces the new soldiers and their weapons (Beretta and Pulse Rifle) by Black Ops Male Assassins with High Definition Pack guns. I played the whole mod with this pack, and I really enjoyed it.
Was that the Savage Azure Sheep LD Pack Upgrade? Cause that actually makes sense now.
Well gordon have half life 3 gonne talk but actor pass away
Azure Sheep is a great mod i wish there was a sequel for it
Good for you if you had fun with it, but honestly I think of it as one of the most poorly aged Half Life mods ever especially with USS Darkstar being released around the same time if earlier.
Maybe good for its time, but right now it shows its age and flaws more than ever before. While Darkstar or Point of View or the headcrab zombie mod never felt like I was just fighting for hours waiting for the game to end, Azure Sheep started feeling like that just before halfway through.
I barely remember most of it and I just finished playing it. I'm pretty sure I was on autopilot for most of it because there wasn't much to see, sometimes something would happen and make me think "That was horrific" or "Oh new enemy". But then it goes back to just more of the same repetitiveness just with a slightly different enemy or gun coming about sometimes in the seemingly endless mind-numbing, boring and looping tight halls of Black Mesa. It barely feels like you're making progress in getting out because the mod is so dull and the maps all the same hallways but looking slightly different.
If you wanna play it just because or because its Half Life history then feel free, but I feel like Point of View (from the same creator) or USS Darkstar are far more fun.
For 2001 its a really good mod
9:08 isnt it funny? Adrian see freeman and we see Adrian
This video still holds up
Azure Sheep is being developed for Black Mesa.
i haven't watch you in soo long time
BRO THE VOICE OF THE GRUNTS AND FREEMAN ITS THE SAME
😯😯😯
You should play the mod “Research and Development” for HLE2
Yo wtf I thought the mods are free
@@shookengie370most are free, but there are some that arent free, like Hunt Down The Freeman (HDTF)
That was frustratingly entertaining 🤣 I couldn't stop watching
Barney becoming uncanny...
13:35 That's an Arrow. Also seen in the Alpha version of the game.
That's an Archer from Alpha Version, it can shoot small crystal thingy while in underwater.
7:18 holy shit they predicted purple vorts 5 years before ep1
Your voice is so mesmerizing. Subscribing now!
4:44 i swear i have seen that wheel texture in the beta screenshots of an old GTA game
Oh man this mod is really perfect
this mod seems to be a fan made blue shift before blue shift.
Those frog sounds are called Chumtoad, its a cut model, it replaced by snark in the final game
9:49 picks up gun from the aliens
this was longer than blue shift and with more content, and it was just a mod
Ngl Iegit thought you were DeSinc for a second there
0:44 freeman in the magnum pi 🥶🥶🥶
I never in my life have seen this mod
7:32 IT'S THE UNUSED CHUMTOADS!
no this is the universe where gordon talked in the original game but he was kinda deaf so he could not hear himself talking
I like the slight retexture of the Glock. They added a Black Mesa symbol on the top.
Heh... I remember this mod. I remember the most that you do a lot of walking from A to B in it, so I put it in C tier. Still worth playing, but bring some patience and an extra set of boots.
13:17 thats an enemy from the half life beta
you make awesome content keep it up man
This mod is objectively good.
