      urban terror tried to do the whole CT vs T theme but the movement is much closer to an arena shooter.

    I wonder if, in the future, we’ll look back at this lame decision as one of the turning points for Valve, we’ll see how this develops and if this is just the start of a downwards trend

      is it a lame decision? valve was okay with the project, until the devs used a method in the closed source part of source to do something. Valve then asked them to not do that, so the dev then implemented an even worse method than the first, which Valve than C&D altogether.

      valve had 0 problems with the project, other than a very specific implementation they did with source engine, was asked to fix it, but chose not to do it.

      This got rejected from Steam in January and the C&D was in March, but in between that Valve updated their Source SDK to add all TF2 source code, so it’s not like they’re completely anti-mod.

      As usual, Valve doesn’t communicate with anyone, so who knows what’s going on there.

      People are saying the reason is that they used/worked with leaked CS:GO code, which Valve doesn’t like, but the devs deny it.

        Ah I remember hearing about some jabronies using leaked code, I guess this is the same bunch?

          I don’t think so. They deny it, so who knows. There’s also the exploit allegations, that were mentioned in this thread, but there’s just no source for anything.

    This is why when you get permission, where you must plan for a decade of work, and they are saying yes, you get them to say in perpetuity and non-revokeable.
