Yesterday, we reported that Valve has shut down the Team Fortress: Source 2 fan project. The company blocked all repositories of the fan remake because of copyright infringement.
The project creators later commented on their Discord, saying they don't plan to challenge Valve's decision since they violated the law for using Valve materials without the appropriate license. Also, when asked if they would attempt to lift the block, possibly through legal action, Team Fortress: Source 2's modders responded that contesting the illegal use of Valve's IP would be stupid.
Garry Newman, the creator of Garry's Mod and s&box, also shared his thoughts on the ban.
"I think while it's maybe out of character for Valve to take down fan projects like this, it's hardly surprising when you have their entire game uploaded. I somehow don't think the "old Valve" would have let anyone port Half-Life to another engine and host it all publicly either," Newman wrote. "S&box doesn't have a license to use Valve's content, only the engine. It's not a mod, it's not gmod. We didn't want to commit a chunk of profit so early in development when we don't even know what the final product will look like."
Well, it seems that the Team Fortress: Source 2 fan project's story has come to an end.
