As a blog post made by the Open Fortress team today indicated, players of Valve’s original game were not the only ones suffering as a result of the company’s perceived indifference.Įver since the day we got the first email from Valve asking us to take down the game, it has take a toll on not only us, but you, the community. The base game has not received a major update since 2017, and its hacker bot infestation was only addressed recently after two years in response to considerable pressure. Valve’s lack of a response is nothing new for members of the TF2 community.

As stated before, we do plan to take our downloads back down, if and when Valve replies back to us with anything concrete.

We mean Valve no ill will, and we’d appreciate if the TF2 mod community would do the same. This appears to include restricting voice commands, which is bad news for legitimate free-to-play users, but might finally give medics some peace.We don’t want to push any blame onto Valve. Meanwhile, Valve is still battling an ongoing bot problem in the modern-day version of Team Fortress 2, with the latest update seeking to silence the noisy bots by preventing new free-to-play accounts from using voice chat. Once that's all done, you'll be able to access the mod as a separate game within your Steam library. There's no release date yet for the latter, but you can dive into TF2 Classic right now by following the installation instructions here (you'll need to download SourceSDK Base 2013 Multiplayer to run the mod). The mod team intends to release further updates in future, while a part of the project (Team Deathmatch Classic) has split off to be developed by another mod team called Compucolor Pictures. You can find oodles of patch notes in the four separate blog posts for the update - a dream come true for any Team Fortress 2 player, quite frankly.

The Death & Taxes update, which took the team four years to complete, adds a huge amount of weapons, improved bots, and the new VIP game mode.
