@ DC, when will you just add all these Q&As to the F.A.Q.?
These types of questions get asked every few weeks, I'd say that's more frequent than some of the entries on that page.

Honestly what fascinates me is how people can't get it through their heads @ DC: is finished with the game. Be glad he supported it for even this long and didn't throw the towel in the moment its golden era was over, but kept updating it years later, sometimes even adding features requested by singular members of the community. Despite everything he said, literally one post later he is ignored and people still ask for major updates for a game with no future, but a very rich past. No amount of updates will save the game, and neither will this Twitter announcement. Gabe Newell Follower made a video about the game, which energised it for about a month, but it wore off. The game was greenlit on Steam, but after a few months that also wore off. This Twitter announcement will also inevitably wear off, and I feel much sooner than the other "revivals". As time goes on, you people should also move on and stop being stuck in the past. Cherish the memories you all have made playing CS2D, and let it go. All good things come to an end.

Totally agree with this sentiment. And also whatever GeoB99 mentioned.

Now, the problem is the game's inactivity and lack of updates. People need more content and more mods for the game - some great ones have been deleted and that's a real shame. But now comes the question - do we bring back past servers and their modifications, or do we move on to the future and expand the horizons? (or just kill the game as off, as some suggest). But one more problem arises - no one wants to do that. My suggestion? Give the source code if it hasn't already been distributed. If you're not gonna do the work, why not let someone experiment with it? One might still have motivation to make this if they've got the right tools - I've seen people go to further extents.

Well sometimes games just be dead after long time, without a good reason, it's like the shirts you've worn when you were 10 years younger. You just have grown out of it.
On the other hand there are still people playing CS2D and tbh i loved and still love this game, been alot of fun.
The thing that's important on here is that i never forgot about it, so well done @ DC: you did a great job on creating a game that's still on my mind just like the good old AOE2 times.
