| − | '''Control Points''' is the "main" game type of Team Fortress 2, composing 4 of the original 6 maps. The game revolves around capturing and defending various [[Control points]].

| − | ===Offense===
| |
| − | Control Points are captured by standing on top of them. The speed at which a control point is captured depends on how many players from the capturing team are present on the point: two BLU players capturing a RED point will capture that point faster than only one BLU player would. [[Scouts]] count as two players, as do [[Soldiers]] and [[Demomen]] wielding the [[Pain Train]]. There is a limit on how fast a Control Point can be captured (see [[Control point timing]]).
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Defense===
| |
| − | If players from both teams are on the same, unlocked control point, that point is said to be ''contested'', which means no progress is made toward the point changing team control. When players from the offensive team are removed from the point all of their progress is lost gradually over time, not immediately.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Reverting Capture===
| |
| − | When a point is neutral and both teams are trying to capture it captures can be '''reverted'''. If a team begins, but does not finish, to capture a neutral point and then is driven off, when the other team begins to capture that point they will first have to "revert" the progress that the first team made before they can begin to make progress of their own.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Limitations===
| |
| − | *[[Disguise]]d [[Spy|Spies]] cannot block a capture if they are disguised as the team capturing the point, and cannot capture a point if they are disguised as the enemy team. | |
| − | *[[Cloak]]ed Spies can not defend or capture a control point.
| |
| − | *[[ÜberCharge]]d players cannot capture points, but can block enemy captures.
| |
| − | *Scouts under the effects of [[Bonk! Atomic Punch]] can neither block enemy captures nor capture points himself.

| − | ==Standard Control Point==
| |
| − | '''Standard Control Point''' (or Linear Control Point) maps play symmetrically. Both teams start with an equal number of two controlled points and a central point that starts out controlled by neither team. The team that captures all the points wins. Standard control point maps will go into [[Sudden death]] (or [[Stalemate]]) if no team captures all the points before times runs out. Control points close to a team's spawn point are captured more quickly by the enemy team.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Attack/Defend==
| |
| − | '''Attack/Defend''' maps play asymmetrically. [[RED]] begins with all the points in their control. [[BLU]] wins if it captures all of RED's points. Points may only be captured in a set order (though some maps, such as Gravel Pit and Steel, may make exceptions). RED wins if it prevents BLU from capturing all points before the timer expires. Points captured by BLU are typically locked and cannot be taken back.

| − | |'''Linear single-stage'''
| |
| − | |BLU must capture all control points in a set order.
| |
| − | |[[Gorge]], [[Mountain Lab]]
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | |'''Linear multi-stage'''
| |
| − | |BLU must capture a set of control points in a set order to move to the next stage. Reaching the final stage and suceeding is required to ultimately win the map. If BLU fails to win a stage, then the map is reset to stage 1 and the teams switch.
| |
| − | |[[Dustbowl]], [[Egypt]]
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | |'''Pyramid-style'''
| |
| − | |BLU must capture three points. The first two points may be captured in any order. Once both points are captured, the final point is unlocked.
| |
| − | |[[Gravel Pit]], [[Junction]]
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | |'''Centralized-style'''
| |
| − | |BLU's objective is to capture the central control point. There is another set of control points available, one of which is open for capture at a time in a set order. Capturing these auxillary points makes it easier to capture the final point.
| |
| − | |[[Steel]]
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | |'''Medieval-style'''
| |
| − | |Similar in principle to pyramid-style, with the main difference being that the initial points reset to RED's ownership after a length of time.
