ABOUT Castaway.tf

Castaway.tf Team Fortress 2 Servers

Welcome to the steam group for Castaway.tf. We are a small community focused on playing older TF2, in the spirit of old Valve servers.

Check out our website for a server list, the map rotation, and additional info: https://castaway.tf

The goal of Castaway is simple - servers where you can play Team Fortress 2 in it's prime. Random crits, sprays, no class limits, no moderation on player communication; this should be as close as possible to the vision of the game as seen by the original developers. Our servers feature a weapon reversion plugin, which attempts to put weapons back into the state whenever they were most fun.

Castaway also features a map voting system. As we do not have all that many players, and it's not as simple as just joining a different server if you want to play a different map, the map voting is a compromise to allow players to play what they want.

No matter what someone else might tell you, we do not, have not, and will not have an official discord server, reddit, or anything of the sort. Our only official locations are on YouTube and our website, anything else is fan made and is not endorsed by Castaway.

Join the group chat for announcements for game sessions!

We have an official YouTube channel for clips! Check the discussion thread for more information.

Custom Maps Poll #2
27 October - random | 7 Comments

Hello, I am running the second regular custom maps poll.

Before responding, note that there is now a Not Played option in the poll if you haven't tried a map out yet, or only a small amount. Please use this as much as you can and as honestly as you can because if you haven't played a map enough to have a strong opinion, it will skew the results.

Ideally, each map will have mainly responses from players who have tried them out, so that people aren't voting on maps just because others told them to vote a certain way, or just because of the thumbnail.

You can find the link to the poll here[forms.gle].

This poll will last a subjective amount of time from around a few days to a week depending on when I have time to go through the results.

As per usual, polls require a google account sign in. The data is not collected. This is to prevent bad actors from rigging the vote
