Hello, everyone part of the Open Fortress community. We have decided that we are now going to re-open the game back to the general public.

Ever since the day we got the first email from Valve asking us to take down the game, it has take a toll on not only us, but you, the community. In the time that you were all waiting for us to give you information as to what was going on - we were in the background sending emails back and forth to Valve to see if there was a way that they could help us in getting the proper things in order to get the game on Steam.

After some time had passed we never really got a response back from them. We waited, thinking that they would eventually get back to us, but they never did.

We have now taken it upon ourselves to bring the game back. We hate seeing you as a community sit and wonder what has happened and when we will ever return. As an ending note, please do not bring hate towards Valve over this. They are a big company and have other things that they need to tend to that are way more important.

Here's the new launcher, download it now, GO! OFToast (Windows)

(Notes: If it ever stalls during downloading, leave it be, many people may be downloading currently, be patient. You'll also want to delete your current Open Fortress installation to avoid conflicts.)

Linux Users: You'll have to compile the launcher yourself due to various distro issues which will be patched in the coming days. https://github.com/int-72h/oflauncher-rei
