    Not free as in FOSS because it’s limited to non-commercial projects, but they’re Valve. Devs will probably be able to strike deals if their monetization schemes aren’t exploitative.

    Putting the game out to pasture after years of neglect… Sad that they’ll never restore the actual game to its pre-matchmaking glory days. Hopefully this will result in a proper vanilla experience, but it’s pretty painful that the actual game (which will always attract the most players) is being left to rot like this.

      Look into TF2 Classic. It’s essentially ~2011 tf2 with just a few different items and game modes. No stupid hats, manageable and balanced weapons. I love it! Been playing for years now with no bot issues. I believe it will be added to the official steam store sometime soon

    I’d love to see someone make a “TF2 Classic” where it’s the game as it was on release, but with all the current QOL and fixes; none of the unlockables and hats and all that bullshit. Just pure fucking fun. Oh, and also give us back all the scripting commands they needlessly took away because some players are too dumb to type shit into the console or download someone else’s config and were claiming that they were unfair.

      Man I remember the last time I successfully played spy as a kid, with the, “turn left/right 170 degrees and backstab” commands you input right as you pass by someone.

      Doable by hand, but now I have a cat on my desk at all times and the range of motion requires to whip around that fast isn’t gonna happen.

        I had made a script that would allow me to set timers for my stickies as a demo. Spray a CP or doorway with 'em, set the timer to, like, 60 seconds and then go spam regular nades somewhere and just wait for someone to explode a minute later.
