'''Bounty''' Mode is an experimental game mode. it seems to be like an idea to unite experience system from '''Creep''' Mode, as well as upgrade system from '''Mann vs Machine''', with some standard PvP mode, such as '''Capture The Flag''' or '''Control Point'''. Just as '''Creep Mode''', the idea seems to be abandoned on early stages of development.

'''Bounty''' mode is an experimental gamemode that was being tested for [[Team Fortress 2]]. It is theorized that in this gamemode, players have the ability to collect credits and use the modified upgrades from [[Mann vs. Machine (game mode)|Mann vs. Machine]] in standard gameplay. Players start out with 1000 credits and can earn more by doing map objectives and killing enemy players. Though it is functionless, players can also gain experience and level up by collecting credits. Also, [[Spy]] can attach Sappers to enemy players.

Players would start with 1000 credits. They would be able to kill enemies and perform various objectives in order to gain currency and spend it to upgrades (Upgrade Station UI from MvM would supposed to be opened when Supply Cabinet is touched), and receive experience points, though their intended usage is much more vague. When killed, players would lose some currency (unlike MvM), and the amount of lost currency is coded as some percentage from unspent credits<ref>game/server/tf/tf_player.cpp, line 11814</ref>, however, coefficient is set to zero<ref>game/shared/tf_gamerules.cpp, line 581</ref>, so this feature is technically unused.

This article documents experimental content for Team Fortress 2. It may contain speculation, broken links or errors.

Bounty mode is an experimental gamemode that was being tested for Team Fortress 2. It is theorized that in this gamemode, players have the ability to collect credits and use the modified upgrades from Mann vs. Machine in standard gameplay. Players start out with 1000 credits and can earn more by doing map objectives and killing enemy players. Though it is functionless, players can also gain experience and level up by collecting credits. Also, Spy can attach Sappers to enemy players.

Since there are no Upgrade Stations in maps outside of Mann vs. Machine, touching the Resupply Cabinet opens the upgrade menu.
