'''VIP''' is a ~~gamemode created~~ for ~~Team Fortress 2 Classic~~.

'''VIP''' is a game mode involving a player designated as the VIP, who can only play as the exclusive [[Civilian]] class, a class designed to be very weak, who's role is to focus on the objectives in the maps he's available in. This includes capturing control points, using a device to open up the last control point, and racing towards the last point in one life. Typically, the BLU team will be focusing on aiding the VIP in completing these objectives, while the RED team is focused on preventing him until the timer has been reached. Usually, upon the death of the VIP, time gets removed from the timer, which allows the RED team to win faster. The VIP has special abilities himself that supports his team, including a defense boost for teammates near him, and his [[Umbrella]] that grants mini-crits on friendly targets.

~~There are four official VIP~~ maps: [[~~Blackstone~~ Harbor]], [[Mineside]], [[~~Trainyard~~]]~~, and~~ [[~~Badwater Basin (VIP)~~]].

~~This mode uses the new playable class subsequently named VIP, also known as the~~ [[~~Civilian~~]]~~, who~~'~~s role is to focus on the objectives in the maps he~~'s available in. This includes capturing control points, using the intel to open up the last control point, and racing towards the last point in one life. Typically, the BLU team will be focusing on aiding the VIP in completing these objectives, while the RED team is focused on preventing him until the timer has been reached. Normally, killing the VIP will reduce the timer by 30 seconds, which allows RED team to win faster, while BLU team races against the clock. The VIP has special abilities himself that supports his team, including a defence boost for teammates near him, and his [[~~umbrella~~]] ~~that grants mini-crits on friendly targets.~~

== Trivia ==

* VIP mode is based on the "[[tf:Hunted_(Classic)|Hunted]]" map from Team Fortress Classic. The game concept eventually evolved into [[Payload]].

* "VIP" is an initialism for "Very Important Person".

** Unlike other game modes, where the initialism ("CTF") and the full term ("Capture The Flag") are both official terms, only the initialism is used for VIP.
