For the discussion of the leaks, refrain from posting the links in here.
What we know so far; >Gabes son, was interviewed by Tyler Mcvicker and are friends and have been for a while >The person to leak the source codes to Tyler was an "Inside guy" with access, all points blame to gray (gabens son).
>Pokemon US Blue and Yellow source codes leak thanks to heroes exposing discord trannies >TF2/CSGO source codes leak thanks to heroes exposing discord trannies. MGSV source code better leak next faggots. I bet discord trannies are hoarding it.
so this fstop game people were excited about as a portal 2 beta but it was nothing but pick and placing props. there is this indie game in development with a similar concept but takes it 1000x further. youtu.be/yQCbcrbqaFI youtube.com/watch?v=ran_yU65Xmg

>April starts >we finally get a patch to stop the lagbots crashing servers >Hey, things are finally looking up, maybe TF2 is gonna get back on track >few days later Soldier dies >a week later the game is compromised
depends if there actually is an RCE in the code, since it's Source it might be kinda risky

I heard there were chat logs confirming it >It's true >it's true >it's totally true now I know he was saying that it's true there were chat logs, but he's phrased it so poorly that it sounds like he's confirming that he was the one who leaked it

>TF2 is now indefinitely compromised One of the party van hosts here, not the main one tho. With these revelations I'm considering putting a halt on hosting at least my TF2 servers for a bit until that RCE bug gets fixed, or explained better as it's too early to say whether or not it's a non issue. No idea how pomf will be responding to it
Luke Morgan
Do they really have the source code? People say it's only the translation files.
Imagine being as fucking dumb as Tyler >Can face prison time >"I sent my proof to valve legal team, I'm fine" >"Yes those chat logs of me talking to a supposed valve employee is true!" >"No i never had the source myself, but knew people who did"
Are you forgetting how in the chat logs you kept begging for the 'valve employee" to leak source codes to you? Absolute imbecile.

>CSGO and TF2 source code leaks Wait weren't those already like basically public? They're source engine games. Or so I just not understand it correctly?
I believe you're misunderstanding the idea of Source SDKs and the source code. As stated before, the utility of source code is that it can be used to change everything from the ground up or create something from scratch. SDKs, console commands, and mods can only get you so far.
Henry Morales
Released games are compiled, meaning they are stripped of comments (dev notes explaining what each command does), encrypted, and generally are able to be released in safe way that doesn't let other people steal/fuck with their shit This is the raw data
Gavin Gray
>more details about Laidlaw's exit Wait what? How?
Luke Johnson
what does this mean for cases in csgo and crates in tf2? Can they be manipulated? Imagine the fucking resonance cascade

Imagine you get the blueprints, schedules, and access codes for a bank or something. With this information in hand, you can case the joint very precisely in order to pull off a big heist with little to no inconveniences. In the context of source codes, it means that pretty much anyone can do anything with the program in question: mods, exploits, cheats, scripts... the works, really Really, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out why this is a masiive issue, since they could even inject malware into your PCs (not some funny CCP haha bullshit malware, I mean some serious shit that will render your computer unusable and/or send data to hackers without you knowing shit unless you're constantly monitoring your network or some shit)

Based.
Brandon Ortiz
We already knew about Warren Spector's Episode IV
Parker Jones
the economy for tf2 is fucking dead considering the game is now legitimately unplayable
Colton Campbell
But then you get a 1000+ rolling sticky, with the added strain of "who? why care, literally incel" bait posts. I think letting the threads ride things out is better than dedicating a sticky.

>What is full.zip.txt >full.zip is the entire Counter Strike: Global Offensive source code as of Operation Hydra and the TF2 source code as of Jungle Inferno. >These were willingly held onto by a select few of people, (VNN, etc) and kept in a very small circle. It was some kind of medium for them to jerk off about having secret shit >Some weird schizoid managed to grab both these codebases during his work on some 900th attempt of a HL2 VR project and his major goal was to have this circle leak it to the public and fly to his girlfriends house (also involved in the valve community) and kill himself and her. Absolutely fucking insane, and it's something to have a beer over and laugh about with your source modding friends >Ended up getting arrested after she fleed and cops had been called. >A lot of interesting knowledge can be gained from these two codebases alone and a lot of resourceful information can come of it. Go wild! ^source of this bundle of joy. Tyler is not the leak here, but he is fucked because the chatlog has proof of him getting leaks and internal Valve artwork from an employee who gives enough details about themselves to be identifiable by the company >also Don't fucking run the .bats or .exes unless you're on a VPN or some shit; could be sending all sorts of telemetry
>*gets a RAT from playing on any source engine game server* L-let me tell you about how... that fucking douche bag tim sweeney and EPIC... are STEALING YOUR PRIVACY *sniffle* S-STOP- STOP LAUGHING YOU FUCKING CHINESE SHILL!!! 2 SOCIAL CREDIT SCORE POINTS HAVE BEEN DEPOSITED INTO YOUR ACCOUNT
so what does having CSGO's and TF2's source codes leak mean for those games?
Isaiah Wood
>encrypted, and generally are able to be released in safe way that doesn't let other people steal/fuck with their shit Not encrypted but compiled. And because of it, it can be decompiled and reverse engineered. But this takes time.
ah you're right, I didn't know Junction Point = Spector's studio.
Chase Hall
Literally WHO gives a shit?
I don't understand why anyone cares about any of this?
Nathaniel Foster
Oh great, so the autistic obsession with literal valve scraps has lead to the deaths of some actually good games. I hate nerds and their fucking YouTube/Discord quests
Josiah Gonzalez
>No comment on the matter. Ah, so thats why he's holding a fucking AMA on his twitch right now. Fucking moron.
CSGO gets updates, so it might not be as fucked as tf2
Brayden Johnson
>>a week later the game is compromised If you listen to the open source community having the source code public is the best way to make sure your software is safe and secure because the community can collaborate and catch and fix problems quickly. Pay no attention to, for example, shellshock which existed in open source software for 25 fucking years before it was fixed.
Angel Campbell
>it is a video game and not a book Yeah, I think nothing of value was lost.
Jaxson James
Well for one, people will be on the hunt like wild dogs for exploits/bugs. Bugs that will make the server run an executable, and then take control and have you download something of similar nature.
Owen Foster
>don't run the .bats Not running the .exes is valid, but you can literally just read a .bat
Ryder Bell
Source code for TF2 and CSGO get leaked, presumably from the Valve News Network discord
Easton Perry
I can very easily see this being true. Laidlaw wanted to further the Half-Life lore and felt in this instance, story should come first but the game designers wanted the game design to dictate the story.
Valve needs to stop giving a shit about leaks. They have a massive leaking problem so that's a losing battle right there. Tyler had dozens of Half-Life Alyx builds dating back to 2016.
Because its interesting. Seemed obvious to me and I gave up on Valve years ago. I personally am following to story to see if the SJW devs get sued into oblivion because they banned Maxx for saying nigger.
Asher Jenkins
Episode 3 was being done by Valve and the plan was to outsource (haha i am smart) episode 4. So Arkane and Junction Point both came up with pitches that were part of the leak. We've known about episode 4 for a while but now we have the actual data.
Jaxon Harris
>If you listen to the open source community having the source code public is the best way to make sure your software is safe and secure because the community can collaborate and catch and fix problems quickly. Nobody pretends that's valid for the sudden leaking of a huge codebase.
Anthony Morgan

Elijah White
Very interesting timing with Valorant coming out. Wonder wonder, who could be behind the leaks of CS:GO and TF2.
Gavin Sullivan
>none there isn't much left of the original employees Isn't that confirmed bullshit?

where is the download? a non-peer-to-peer link plz like on mega, don't want an FBI torrent
