I feel bad that Alaxe spent so much work creating a near accurate version of the spellcaster quarterly witch's model just for the actual model to get leaked a few months later
@@TrollGarlic In the Play Anywhere trailer that Valve produced for the Steam feature, there is a scene with Spy playing a game from his bathtub ...also used in the Meet The Spy
Even if TF2 gets shut down,there’s no way it’s the end. The community has already made it available to play in an open source format,and they’ve already been making fan material and content for a 10+ year old game. There’s no way it’ll all just halt suddenly.
It will 100% die without Valve servers, despite how shit they are. The community just can't keep it running and if it does the influx of new players will diminish a lot.
this is the end of an era... for tf2, this really just cements the end of the "valve" era has passed (and probably did long time ago), now while nothing official about tf2 will come out in a long time if ever, now its the community's turn, we have the tools, we have almost everything tf2 related in our hands, we WILL keep the game alive for as long as we can, even if valve servers shut down and we couldnt do casual, we would even fix that, hell the only thing missing is releasing the source code for tf2 edit: welp, guess valve came back with the milk lol edit 2 electric boogaloo: nvm lol "good news!, we're not dying! we are gonna live forever" -soldier
First, Unreal kicks the bucket. Then, what seems like everything ever made for TF2 gets leaked. I wonder if anything else will happen to the old guard of FPS games in the near future.
this is absolutely insane, sick video. but also, commenting this so i can come back and laugh at you when the next big tf2 update drops in the unforeseen future (probably around 2042)
How does this cause tf2 to be "over" anyway? Is it cause people gonna be able to make sophisticated cheats now? Or cause valve will give up after all the in progress stuff got leaked? i dont get it
The fact that the "most recent" content in the leak is back from 2015. It didn't include most if not any of the jungle inferno content... besides things like a version of Mercenary Park back from 2011, which means anything valve could potentially be working on in any capacity simply isn't there at all. So yeah, lots of dooming over this when it's outdated content to begin with.
It's a bit "fear monger"-y yeah. Even if Valve decides that TF2 will NEVER get a major update ever again (which is possible but Valve is weird) I doubt it's the end of the franchise as a whole.
yeah, if anything this leak will probably be good for TF2, as Richter even mentions. it's probably about to spark a ton of community-made content, which is what TF2 has already been living on for the past 7 years. with TF2 maps now having Vscript compatibility, and the wild shit thats already being made with it, i think custom TF2 content is about to get a whole lot more interesting than it already was.
Remember to thank the invasion update team for the fact valve will never allow us to make our own community updates again. so because of petty people and bad moves we lost a future of fun fan made content other then hats.
the title is more so "half clickbait" in that it is technically the truth, but extremely exaggerated TF2 is not over or shutting down, but simply, in this massive leak, there was no content found that may imply a future update So basically, it's less "tf2 is over" and more so "tf2 official content is very likely over"
@@neevko267 I mean the leak is also of an 8 year old dev repository, no shit it wouldn't contain anything hinting at a new update when it's from before Jungle Inferno lmao
Richter just went for the Fearmongering Clickbait. You don't tag something as "Over" if you aren't implying that something may truly be done in an end of service way. I hope Richter Overtime actively reconsiders redoing some parts of his script and changing the title and thumbnail, because those were suggesting that TF2 would be shut down completely or receive no new updates like bug fixes or even hats.
Tf2 is over? nah man, this is the best thing that's happened to Tf2 in years. Let's face it, Valve has been done with Tf2 for a while. Now the fans have access to Valve's hidden content for the game. This give so much material for the community to work with, who are actually the ones keeping the game alive, not Valve. If Valve were smart like they used to be, they'd embrace this and allow the community to fully utilize this stuff, cuz they sure as shit weren't going to.
I just have a bad feeling that tf2 is going to die soon. It’s just a feeling I have, but I don’t think tf2 will die anytime soon. The game and characters are just too good. I know I contradicted myself but I just don’t know how to feel.
@@averyjudgementalsoldier8303 tbh, not really, if the community has stayed this big though bots and all, the only way for tf2 to die, is if they shut off servers and even then it will stay alive for a while after that
Saying TF2 is over is kinda clickbaity. Sure we haven't received updates for years, but it's not like an old content leak was the final nail on the coffin. The TF2 community tends to overreact to stuff. How many "tf2 is over" posts are we gonna see now, just because people saw this video? Remember the old Source Code leak? People were legit uninstalling the game because of that, and It was never a threat.
he doesn't mean tf2 is over as in "tf2 is dead now guys time to stop playing", he means tf2 is over as in this is likely the last major drop of any type of content for the game (excluding the minor bug fixes and seasonal updates) unless valve releases a major update or some crazy tf2 beta leak happens or something
Looks like a lot of people are getting way too dramatic over this. If this means that Valve isn't going to allow development on the game anymore, then that sucks, but I don't see any reason as to why that would happen. The biggest content we get is patches and new maps, and although I can't say V script and other neat additions have replacements, the server browser exists for if you want to dig out and find fun servers with custom maps. This also just seems to mean leaked maps and models, which isn't very huge. Sure, people can work off of them, but it doesn't unlock anything really new that we didn't have before other than just a few concepts that Valve was toying with an a picture of a coconut. Mods probably wouldn't be able to get away with using any of it anyways, so the most I see being done with it is having a few things copy and pasted onto the workshop for us to use on community servers or for people to purely draw inspiration from. If you're looking for something that will give us hope to tf3 or tf2 mods or just any tf2 content in general, I'd put a lot more hope into Tf2 Source 2 which is currently being developed on S&box, although the developers for that have slowed down a lot on development for it. On top of all of this, this is only from 2007-2015, so there's no point in saying this is all the possible content Valve has ever made because the newest of this stuff is around 7 years old. Because of this, I think it's perfectly reasonable to still think that Valve one day may decide to possibly release an actual major update, but personally I heavily doubt that.
The best explanation I have gotten as to why people think the game is over is because "no content in the leak is past 2015" which is 1. right before smaller leaks came out in 2016 and Valve greatly tightened security over their games and 2. we got major updates after 2015, so the lack of content from there isn't because Valve isn't doing anything. This leak has just gotten everyone into a tizzy and they aren't thinking all the way.
@@lar8728 Yes, leave it to the TF2 community to think that Valve will take down the 4th most played game on steam that still brings them lots of money.
no bro valve is gonna update tf2 bro just hold out for it bro just wait for it'll definitely happen bro just wait for it bro just one more day bro any second now bro
I've seen so many variations of "TF2 is dead/over" that the words have lost all meaning. And even then, whenever Valve does decide to pull the plug, I firmly believe there's enough of a community to keep the game alive in some capacity, at least for a while.
I was wondering the same thing, how does this leak take TF2 from the half-dead "interns only work on it in their spare time" state to a fully-dead sundown?
It’s hard to see how the game could be practically more dead, aside of shutting down all game servers, closing down the shop and marketplace, and shutting down item and account servers. What changes is only the communitys hope for revival. As in significant development time to fix current issues.
I don't see a reason for valve to ever "pull the plug" on the game as much as nihilist try to have me believe, it's still one of the most played steam games and is unanimously loved and they probably still make money from the cosmetics,they would literally be shooting themselves in the foot to shut it down for a silly reason
As other people have already said, It seems like a huge leap to say that because a leak of a bunch of old pre-Jungle inferno content got leaked that Valve will never make anything with the TF2 IP or that It will never get any more support from them. Personally I can easily see this adding to other projects like pre-fortress or TF2 Classic more than proving that THE GAME IS DEAD NOW 😱
man's still living the delusion that valve cares about tf2 for about 7 years now, i've wondered what the actual fuck valve is doing, because tf2 is practically a gold mine that they're actively trying to ignore as much as possible, unless they get a new director or something BIG happens, there's no way they'd change their ways after so long pretty much the whole community banding together managed to get one guy to do bug fixes here and there we would need like a dozen million people to convince valve to do the bare minimum in terms of fixing the game
I genuinely wonder if the SFM files for the other Meet the Team videos (the ones that aren't included with SFM when you download it) are in there and useable. It'd bring back that weird 2011/2012 era where people would upload modified versions of Meet the Engineer or Meet the Heavy and get tons of views for making silly edits in their spare time.
Clickbait title if you ask me. This is just unused model/material source files leaked from Valve's repository. No code here. Also consider that these repositories have been sanitized and had their security tightened after Tyler McVicker & friends ended up leaking all of that source code a few years back.
But it is quite a substantial leak no? Easily the biggest since the HL2 leak back in 2003. The title isn't inherently wrong and currently this information is incredibly fresh so some of it may be wrong or adjusted. There is no click bait (at least in regards to the leak). It just says massive leak, which this is. Get off your high horse.
@@MiguelHernandez-lo5lg Big leaks mean nothing. Small leaks of upcoming unreleased content would be bad. But GTA 6 is still coming, why the hell would TF2 be hurt by this? They weren't doing anything with what was leaked.
@@MiguelHernandez-lo5lg but the difference being hl2 was recent at the time, while Tf2 is old ass right now and this "leaks" is just some garbage pre-jungle inferno. Oh no, how will tf2 ever recover from this?
@@RichterOvertime TF2 is still creating revenue off of key sales and the marketplace and has a thriving modding community. It's no where close to ending. Stop creating bullshit drama out of nothing, you're already in a very niche community as is and pissing them off with your dumbass takes is a sure way to kill your channel, which I wouldn't be opposed to seeing happen.
Valve just putting everything into the communitie's hands at this point, can both be good and bad news depending on how you look at it. I'd say this is a good thing, never underestimate passion and love people have for something they dedicated precious years of their life to, almost 20 years full of community created masterpieces, SFMs, and YPTMVs and such just don't go forgotten, there are so many passionate fans out there tf2 will never actually completely go away.
From what I've heard, the leak itself only has contents dating back to 2015 in the latest. No, the leak not having anything that hints to a future update does not confirm that we are not getting an update. In fact, aside from an early version of Mercenary Park (that isn't even jungle-themed) and a Saxton Hale model, there is not even anything about Jungle Inferno in this. I also don't believe that we are getting an major update any time soon, but again, this leak does not confirm it. Team Fortress 2 is not "over".
Saying "TF2 is over" sounds like an exaggeration to me. I am not holding out for any significant update but I also wouldnt think its just suddenly the end.
Why does this mean "No more content"? They can still create new stuff Now if you say "Nothing about the Heavy Update means they were not working on it to begin with" that'd make more sense
@@YourFoxFriendYT If that's the case then yeah this could all be old stuff and the new stuff has been uploaded elsewhere and the devs are still using it Ugh this is what happens when the devs refuse to officialy announce if they'll keep working on their game or not
I'm not really sure how this confirms that Valve is never doing anything Team Fortress related again. People said that about Half-Life when Marc Laidlaw wrote his Epistle 3 "fanfiction" but that obviously wasn't true.
It's literally just a leak of all of TF2's blueprints & A to Z. This literally doesn't mean shit other than the community having more official assets, which is a good thing since we havent had a proper update for more than half a decade.
Valve probably wouldn't care about the potentially new fan made games anyways, youtubers placed the TF Logo on their merch, what makes this any different
I joined the valve community at a weird time. My first valve experience was portal in late 2020, but my first step into the real valve community was with me purchasing gmod and hl2. As I collected nearly every valve game into my library, I begun to notice something: It really felt like I had joined during the "beginning of the end," which has its pros and cons. On one hand, I have multiple decades worth of fan content to play through. On the other, everyone in this community constantly talks about how dead it is despite staying in it themselves, and it seems that almost every damn fan project made today is built off at least some layer of nostalgia. The valve community is one built off of memories, ones I don't have, and with this source code leak, I feel that both the pros and cons will strengthen. With all of these leaked files, mountains of new fan content while pour onto the online scene, however at the same time, I'm prepared for endless "WELP BOYS, ITS ALLLL OVER NOW!!!11!!" I dunno, this rant is kind of out of place, but I felt I should spew this all somewhere, and I think a video regarding the biggest leak in Valve history is a good place.
The reason people shout about things being over is that when source codes are leaked, people are able to hack the hell out of their clients to the point of making online play nearly impossible. Imagine the current tf2 bot problem, but the bots can crash you to desktop and delete your files.
i believe i first started playing TF2 when it became free to play, so i do remember the days when TF2 was in a better condition compared to how it is now. basically before a bunch of schizos decided to create bots to try and hurt or possibly even kill TF2 (fuck anyone who does this btw). it does hurt to see TF2 suffering like this, but at least it warms my heart that the community will do what it can to try and help keep the game on it's feet. i feel lucky to be part of a good community like this one.
this video just seems entirely clickbait just from reading the title and comments, stop spreading misinformation like this please, its not helpful at all >:V
I don't really understand why this leak means that TF2 is over? Like I'm well aware that the game will likely never get a new update and I only digest small dosages of copium, but I don't understand why this leak specifically indicates that TF2, for sure, will never get another update
tf2 being in the top 10 most active game is amazing since its been years since the last update imagine how many people would return and pick up the game if it got updates again
To say TF2 is “over” (both in the title and during the video) is borderline click bait. We’ve gotten next to nothing for half a decade at this point; the idea that Valve isn’t making anything new, as the leak suggests, changes nothing, and it certainly wont be the end of the game in any way. We’ll still get out bug fixes and cosmetic cases. The servers will keep running. The game will continue to be maintained to the bare minimum standard needed to keep people happy until it no longer generates a profit for Valve which, considering the game recently hit its peak in terms of player count, likely wont be happening for a while.
It's actually amazing to see this much content from a game without major updates anymore. This really proves how damn strong the community is for this masterpiece of a game.
TF2 is essentially run by the community since 2015. A leak like this will do nothing but allow people to be more creative given the new assets. As a map maker myself I would love to go through all the bsp files to learn more about how to improve my own maps, and I am sure all the models will surely be helpful to those who create SFM animations!
Dishonest and clickbait to say "TF2 is over" and "the community has access to every bit of TF2 content ever made", when the most recent files are from 2015. These are not sensitive files that would spoil future updates or imply that valve has stopped working on the game, it's about as meaningless as the last TF2 leak.
The way you're saying it makes it seem like the servers and TF2 itself is going to be shut down after this, your thumbnail even reinforces that, way to fear monger my guy. Sad.
@@RichterOvertime oh no beep beep mr youtuber's PR going down beep beep, but it's okay if more than 5 people care you can just forge a quick damage control tweet or something right
the line implying that the only hope for us to ever see the final comic is to see the script being leaked is so sad. I've found the tumblr o one of the artists, apparently all of them desperately want to finish the comic, but Valve just won't let them.
things that we still do not have : The Dmx files for all of the meet the team videos The unedited voice lines Tf2 brotherhood of arms The Dmx files for the class lineup picture the psd files for the comics The Saxton hale offical model The lost meet the spy video The beta version of mercenary park (uncle dane going to valve video) The Offical playable version of the orange box version of tf2 (seen in trailers)
i just realized someone had to model a naked model of the spy and make scenes of him doing scouts mom, i am really curious to know how that looked like in the valve office
I don't understand how a leak means they won't update it again. I mean, it's Valve so they weren't going to anyway, but you're making a connection where there isn't one.
I appreciate the coverage of this leak a lot, as this is the first time I've heard about it. However, I find the insinuation that "TF2 is over" to be either misleading and disingenuous, or outright nonsensical depending on your intent. There is no reason that Valve would abandon a game based solely off of leaked content from about 7-8 years ago, before even the last major content update. While I'm sure Valve will undergo internal changes because of this leak, the actual game and community of TF2 are largely unaffected. Some would argue that Valve didn't care about the game anyway, which I believe is true (at least as of recent years), but that's not the point. The right time to throw a fit at Valve was years ago, when they started devoting less time, resources, and attention to TF2. Now is not the time. These leaks make little difference to the future of TF2.
I’m sick and tired of everyone saying “oh my god we’re never going to get any content ever again for the rest of time” as if it’s written in stone. All it takes is for several arsonists to try to burn down Valve and maybe they’ll do something
I have an idea: You know how there are people who play chess with real people as the pieces? I want to get 31 or 33 more players that all own the chess hat, hop into a server with them on that chess map at 3:34, level their hats to be the chess pieces needed, and have two players play against each other. I need to do this.
Imagine what this game could've become in the 2020s if Valve actually gave a damn about it. What's really annoying to me is they can't even be bothered to release community updates that have already been tested on community servers (Potato's MVM Update, The Frontline Update, The Mayann Project etc). They have the power to revive this game by clicking a button and they still won't do it. It's mind-boggling. Almost nobody plays on Potato's MVM servers now because 90% of TF2 players don't even know they exist. If Valve added them into the official MVM gamemode, released a trailer for them and sent in-game notifications about them, I guarantee you those servers would fill up in a few minutes. I hate Valve
Damn... That really is kinda insane. I've been watching tf2 videos and sfms on youtube quite literally ever since I can remember, but I only started playing the game around a year ago because I never had a computer. To think I've missed out on "the good ol' days" of Tf2 about two times over, and that now I may be seeing the last valve-made Tf2 content EVER.. is a little depressing. But hey, when one thing ends another begins yknow, so let's see what the Community can do now that all the power is in our hands :, )
Plot twist: Valve actually wanted to make a large update but felt bad about Richter Overtime getting roasted because of it. So they kindly cancelled it to preserve his reputation. Keep up the "work" Valve!
