Welcome to Arclight, a brand new TF2 community built from the ground up. I've assembled a team of 15 developers and moderators to help build this community into something special.

F.A.Q.

How many servers will there be?

To gauge interest and better keep track of our players, we are starting with only one server, located in EU-W.
More may be added in the future, including other regions.

When can I start playing?

Right now! We are running an open alpha test, which means things may be missing or a bit rough around the edges, but it's (somewhat) playable.

Arclight EU is already up and running. To join the server, click on the status display to the left, or click here.

"Open Alpha" means that things will change drastically in the coming weeks, and data may be wiped at the end of it! We'll try not to, but you have been warned.

Isn't this like [insert community here]?

While comparisons are inevitable, we are doing our own thing. Everything from the server plugins to the website has been made from scratch.

If you're going into this expecting it to mirror a different server you play(ed) on — don't. Go into this with an open mind, and you may be surprised! We are not trying to copy or compete with anyone in particular, we are just here because we love TF2.

Where can I give feedback?

You can join our Discord to report bugs and give feedback about the website or the game servers! More ways to help or contribute will be added in the future.

How can I support the project?

During the alpha test we will not be accepting any donations through the website. Once the alpha phase ends you will be able to earn some rewards for donating, like an exclusive Discord role, or extra credits.

If you still want to support the project right now, you may donate to my personal Ko-Fi. All funds will be put aside to pay for server hosting. Our total costs per month are a little over €100 at this time, which I am currently paying out of pocket.
