The '''Mann Co. Beta Maps''' is an Early Access program for including the community early in the development process.  In particular, this opening of the development process allows players to play on selected maps that are in the Beta stage. Players access these maps by clicking on Play Multiplayer, enable Play Beta Maps check-box, and then choose a mode to play (Such as "Robot Destruction" and "Mannpower"). Users send feedback back to the TF2 team for suggestions, ideas and bug reports. Maps inside of the beta stage might have bugs, lack of cosmetic props, and have a high chance of using dev textures (''see Gallery further down this page'').

Mann Co. Beta Maps Early Access update picture.

The Mann Co. Beta Maps is an Early Access program for including the community early in the development process. In particular, this opening of the development process allows players to play on selected maps that are in the Beta stage. Players access these maps by clicking on Play Multiplayer, enable Play Beta Maps check-box, and then choose a mode to play (Such as "Robot Destruction" and "Mannpower"). Users send feedback back to the TF2 team for suggestions, ideas and bug reports. Maps inside of the beta stage might have bugs, lack of cosmetic props, and have a high chance of using dev textures (see Gallery further down this page).

There are currently six beta maps in the Early Access program: RD_Asteroid, PL_CactusCanyon, CTF_Foundry, CTF_Gorge, CTF_thundermountain, and PASS_warehouse.
