This will never work.
Back to the drawing board, genius!
The Sniper

Like many video games, Team Fortress 2 changed significantly over the course of its development. Decisions as to how the gameplay would work changed, such as whether or not grenades would be used like they were in Team Fortress Classic. An item might have been cut simply because it was replaced by something better, like the Soldier's medals, and sometimes content was cut due to the change in the game's style. Listed on this page are weapons, items, and other odds and ends that were cut from the game, but in most cases left over in some form in the game's content (.VPK) files as unused content. Unlike unreleased content, unused in this context is assumed to be purposefully cut or abandoned without hope for being integrated at some point.

Classes

Name Notes
Civilian Unused gamemode specific-class. Was to be escorted from one point on a map to another, functioning as a playable Payload bomb cart. Valve wanted him to be in the VIP gamemode, which was scrapped along with the civilian.
Commander Non-physical class removed during Team Fortress 2's development. Was to oversee the map, provide aerial support, place buildings, and communicate tactics to teammates.
Female Classes Non-physical classes. The concept was created and revealed by a former employee of Valve, Drew Wolf.

Game modes

Name Notes
Raid A prototype of Mann vs. Machine with unique bosses like the Knight and the Mecha Level 4 Sentry.
Bounty A game mode involving placing a bounty on people's heads.
Creep Mode An unfinished game mode based on the idea of "Creeps" and "Creep waves" in Dota 2. A predecessor to Mann vs. Machine.

Maps

Name Notes
Cloak (Control Point) Cloak is a small Control Point map with an unknown purpose. It consists of a spawn room for each team in opposite corners of the map. There is one control point in the center of the map on an elevated platform. There are no Health packs, Ammo crates, or resupply lockers on the map. Outside of the main area of the map, there is a giant model of each class looking through gaps in the walls.

Grenades

The only grenade projectiles in Team Fortress 2 are those fired from the Demoman's primary weapons. Additionally, the Soldier detonates a grenade as part of the Grenade kill taunt, albeit without throwing it. The Pyro also wears a bandolier holding three incendiary grenades, but they are purely cosmetic.

Grenades were a strong feature of Team Fortress Classic, but were scrapped during the early testing stages of Team Fortress 2. Developers have revealed that this choice was due to gameplay concerns with how they were used, such as being thrown randomly at chokepoints, certain potential exploits, and general over-reliance on them as a whole.

Each class was set to have primary and secondary grenades, with the primary grenades being Frag Grenades and secondary grenades possessing more specialized functions. There is still code pertaining to thrown grenades in the server_i486.so file, as well as keybinds related to grenades (+grenade1 and +grenade2). Players would have to holster their weapons in order to switch to the Grenade slots and use their grenades. Some remnants of this holster system can be found in the form of holster/unholster animations in models/weapons/v_models/v_bat_scout.mdl, models/weapons/v_models/v_smg_sniper.mdl and models/weapons/v_models/v_shotgun_soldier.mdl. v_bat_scout.mdl's holster animation was designed for the original bat model from the early trailers, rather than the model actually used in the final game, so the bat appears to get stuck inside the Scout's arm.

Several grenade types are modeled, some of which are updated versions of those found in Team Fortress Classic and some of which are new designs. Sounds for thrown grenades can also be found in the game files.

An unobtainable crafting item called a "Grenade Token" used to exist, but was removed with the Mann-Conomy Update.

Name Class Notes
Concussion Grenade Scout Team Fortress Classic weapon. Blasted players back and gave them dizzyness.
Nail Grenade Soldier Team Fortress Classic weapon. Hopped up, fired a ring of nails for 5 seconds, then detonated.
Napalm Grenade Pyro Team Fortress Classic weapon. Created a radius of fire, similar to the CS:GO Molotov. The Pyro's belt has three unusable napalm grenades.
MIRV Grenade Demoman, Heavy Wielded by Demoman in Trailer 1 and Trailer 2. Exploded into smaller bomblets, which then exploded after a few seconds.
EMP Grenade Engineer Team Fortress Classic weapon.
Heal Grenade Medic Based on the class that carried this grenade, it is possible that it would have healed teammates upon detonation.
Gas Grenade Spy Team Fortress Classic weapon.
Frag Grenade All classes other than Scout Team Fortress Classic weapon. The Soldier carries two unusable frag grenades on his belt and uses one in the Equalizer and Escape Plan taunts. RED version reappeared as a decoration of the Mann vs. Machine Upgrade Store.
Bear Trap Scout Possibly would have had the same functionality as the Team Fortress Classic caltrops. RED version reappeared as a decoration of the Mann vs. Machine Upgrade Store.
Smoke Bomb
(also referred to as Smoke Grenade)
Spy Typical smoke grenade. Was tested early on in development as a part of the Spy's cloaking process. Was later brought back when throwable weapons were being tested.
Teleport Grenade Unknown Would teleport the thrower to wherever the grenade landed.
Chain Grenade

Unknown A trap-style grenade, would suck enemies within its area of effect towards the grenade.

Buildings

Name Notes
Detpack An experimental building for the Demoman from the early days of TF2's development.
Repair Node Was to act as a replacement for the Teleporter or the Dispenser. Would automatically repair buildings when the Engineer was away from his base.
Recon A scrapped building. It is unknown what the function was. The only remnants of it is a beeping sound.
Mini-Dispenser A scrapped mini version of Dispenser. Costs 70 metal.

Catapult A scrapped modified Teleporter that launch user into the air with Disciplinary Action effect.
Spy Trap A scrapped building for the Spy that came with three different modes that could be used.

Turrets

Name Notes
Turrets The Original design of Team Fortress 2 appears to have had spawn room turrets; several different designs were created, including a large turret and a mini turret, but none of them made it into the final game.

Miscellaneous

In addition to weapons, several items were created for TF2 that were ultimately never fully implemented or used. All of the items on this page originated from the VPK files.

This version of Major Crits is exactly the same as the gatebot version seen in Mannhattan except this version wears the Full Metal Drill Hat instead of the Gatebot Helmet. But there is an unused icon in the game files that is still functional but is never used. It is an icon of the Full Metal Drill Hat and is known as soldier_major_crits. The gatebot version of Major Crits uses Colonel Barrage's icon: soldier_barrage.

Upgrades

These are unused upgrades referenced in the code.[33]

Class Weapon Description
Scout Scattergun Allows the Scout to teleport 192 units horizontally by double-tapping any of the movement keys. Cooldown of 2 seconds.[34]
Soldier Rocket Launcher Gives the Soldier 10x increased air control and fall damage immunity.[35] Firing a rocket while blast jumping propels you in the opposite direction of the rocket.[36]
Pyro Flame Thrower Gives the Pyro a rocket pack that sends it flying in the direction you are looking.[37] When you land with this active, fall damage is nullified, and Robots in a 192 Hammer unit radius will be stunned for 1 to 3 seconds, scaling based on how much fall damage would've been taken; stomping a Robot increases the stun time to 5 seconds.[38] Presumably reworked into the Thermal Thruster.
Demoman Chargin' Targe Increases the amount of damage dealt from shield impacts.[39]
Medic Medi Gun Allows the Medic to heal a friendly Engineer's buildings at 10% of his current heal rate.[40]
Medic Medi Gun Gives the Medic a projectile shield that never expires.[41]
Sniper Sniper Rifle Causes the Sniper to become cloaked after 2 seconds of standing still while scoped. Cloak is immediately removed if the Sniper moves in any manner.[42]
Sniper Huntsman Causes the Huntsman to shoot 2 additional arrows with random horizontal spread per upgrade tick.[43]
Spy Sapper Gives the Spy a speed boost, the ability to walk through Robots, and damage immunity while cloaked. Decloaking inside a Robot causes the Spy to be telefragged.[44]
Spy Sapper Gives the Spy a PDA that can build three different support utilities.[45]
