Valve has just released the source code for Team Fortress 2 Anonymous 02/19/2025 (Wed) 00:11:55 Id: 52877f No. 1072658 >>1073467
Not sure if anyone here still actively played TF2, but this news is HUGE. Basically Valve has just released the source code for Team Fortress 2, making mods that much more interesting. They also updated the game with a bunch of fixes and features. Personally, I hope this leads to having servers that can go over 64 playable characters for maximum chaos, although I'm not a game developer/modder, so I don't really know how these things work. articles in question: https://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=238809 https://steamcommunity.com/games/TF2/announcements/detail/511824321138655315
>>1072972 Nope. From the submitted issues it doesn't seem to matter the distro. Arch, Void, Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, Gentoo, doesn't matter the distro, and it's been occuring for years, nobody from valve will address the issue.
>>1072930 Deadlock is already basically dead right now, dude. The updates have slowed down to a crawl, the art style is embarrassing, the characters aren't particularly memorable, and it's extremely unfriendly to new players. Unlike with Dota 2, Icefrog can't depend on a dedicated fanbase like those who played Dota Allstars to migrate over and keep it at a healthy level of players. It's likely a full year out at least from getting a release, and the hype train around Deadlock already came and went. I think if they include paid cosmetics and lootboxes (which they will, let's be honest), the game will nosedive even further.

>>1072794 Hold your horses, they said: >We're not letting you to temper with the community guns, cosmetics and shit that could break the Community Market You may manipulate the base game however you want, but the rest it's up to Valve's few oldfags. >>1072863 If modders are able to dump their TF2 offshoots within the Steam store first. >>1073000 And the chinese capeshit shooter sponged all the remaining optimistic Deadcock fans, is it really hard for a million dollar company to come up with another single player campaign mode game just to showcase more of their star spangling videgame engine? Or at least release Left4Dead 3 just to be done with the franchise whose fanbase is also desperate for anything.
>>1072658 (OP) Pretty cool of them
>>1073041 > is it really hard for a million dollar company to come up with another single player campaign mode What would a single player campaign for Team Fortress 3 look like?
>>1072930 So? Valve doesn’t need to worry about money anymore.
>>1072691 Never touching Deadcock unless they get change the Nip conehead into something less aesthetically horrifying. Hero shooter devs have one job for their token Jap and it's to make him look cool and THIS ISN'T FUCKING IT.
>>1072662 >Company does an unexpected move right around the time an exposé that could completely wreck them comes out Many such cases, especially from Volvo >>1072679 TF2Ware getting the VScript treatment was not on my bingo card for this year. They really improved a lot of the jank from the older versions. >>1072691 I'm not playing anything that contains ASSFAGGOTS, e-sports bait and a gorillion stat modifiers to knowledge check new players.
>>1073968 It's quite literally a placeholder from when the game was still Neon Prime and she was an alien.
>>1073575 I mean you can pretty easily just take scouts moveset and make a "movement shooter" out of it.
>>1072691 >deadlock is tf3
>>1072706 Yes but it clashes with the retarded cosmetics instead of re-texturing each VTF piece with photoshop, they reverted it. >>1074192 The T standing for "Theseus", are they still the same developers?
lmao his servers dead already
>>1074229 He literally says they are on his own video, it's the whole issue with the lack of quickplay/hiding of the server browser crap.
>>1074260 Oh shit
>>1074260 Is this the same project that Valve got shit for ghosting and then sending a cease and desist letter?
>>1073968 >aesthetically horrifying Isn’t that the point?
>>1074365 No, the model is a remnant of the previous game Deadlock was going to be called Neon Prime, which was a more futuristic setting with aliens and shit, but they decided to shift themes because it looked too similar to Overwatch.
>>1074414 That image looks 100 times more readable than anything from Deadlock I've seen.
They’re more likely to make Team Fortress: The Bored Game than TF3. You know how valve is.
>>1072661 That's a human?
>>1074289 Technically that was Open Fortress, but the dev that sent the initial email was also on TF2C. It also wasn't a C&D, just a polite "If you would kindly delist your stuff we'll work out a way for you to get on steam legally" request. TF2C and OF were technically taken down but not with a threat.
>>1075334 We don't know whether or not it was a C&D. The tweet said Valve told them to take it down and they were working on an "arrangement". Then in classic Valve fashion they ghosted the projects so the developer just brought them back online and went about their business. Valve is ran by comically retarded people.
>>1075226 I CAN'T SHOOT! THEY LOOK JUST LIKE US!
>>1075341 >Valve is ran by comically retarded people. They should buy Cinemassacre/Screenwave, they have so much in common.
>>1077521 Are you that schizophrenic German guy? You bring AVGN up a lot out of nowhere, it's weird

>>1077638 You talking to me?
>>1077638 Label anyone as a schizo whoever you want, but the fact you brought up: >Valve is so incompetent to the point of hilarity Is something common with the entertainment industry once they hit the jackpot and stopped giving a shit as long they get that sweet revenue, not to mention how both companies keep their shit apolitical and still fail to appease lefties.
>>1077857 >Label anyone as a schizo whoever you want, No, I mean he's literally a schizophrenic, or so he says. He's the big furry Linux nerd who posts Renamon. >but the fact you brought up: I'm not the guy you were replying to sorry

https://offshore.teamfortress.community/ I believe this may be officially recognized. https://www.teamfortress.com/?tab=news It was posted about in the News section of the TF2 blog and is very much unlike what they usually post there (tournament news and charity shit) Since the summer 'update' is around the corner, it just seems a little coincidental.
>>1082467 Big may. Even with the very few new things they’ve put out recently, it’s still not enough to make me hope for anything from them, especially not TF2. Which is sad because the community is doing all the work here and all they’d have to do is push a button, but valve are just that lazy. It will talk more that a few twitches to make me think the Fatman is ready to walk again.

>>1074260 How about absorb all popular mods into one and call it a day? Save for Lambda Fortress, that one is a can of worms on its own that could easily shatter any other source code. >>1082467 Just a few cosmetic and taunts as usual, the trannies fighting each other over who's getting all the credit was more fun than whatever microtransaction slop they've been shitting out.
>>1082540 >filename embarrassing
>>1073000 >Icefrog can't depend on a dedicated fanbase like those who played Dota Allstars to migrate over and keep it at a healthy level of players. Why don't they just copy popular warcraft 3 maps and make new games there is plenty,hell they could make Uther Party into it's own game
>>1082552 IceFrog wants something substantial he can call his own. Valve is giving him the budget and the team for it, clearly. He already tried making Dota Auto Chess into a standalone game. That's old hat now.
