map download available: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…s/?id=231686137

Hi all. I had a glorious three day vacation thanks to the holiday weekend (hope you did too!). To celebrate I started a new concept I would like to share as I work through to blockout. I plan to post early iterations in the Workshop and look forward to any feedback you have to offer.

Thanks for stopping by!

Name: TBD

Themes: Bunker, Lab

Game: CSGO

Gametype: Defusal 5v5

Day 1 (technically Friday night and Saturday morning)

Pencil and some minor PS enhancements

Day 2

Paths running up mid and around the cafeteria looking too sketchy, slapped it on a grid and the fun begins

Day 3

First pass on bomb sites, spawn routes, rush points, LOS, choke markers

Day 4

On Deck

Scale test #1, bomb site retake flow, mark railings, update labels

Thanks for the support! I invested a little more time in the layout to make it presentable for you folks, but I generally work on paper a lot at the beginning. It has its pros and cons, no argument there.

Day 5

Scale Test #1 - first floor

1) looked like a maze in the 2D layout and we have ourselves a duck! cramped winding walkways, hard corners, thin walls - needs a quick rework

2) LoS here leaves T's exposed to A-site campers - need to murder that nasty L-shape in the A site and force more commitment from CT's

3) The mid/retake approach to A is too narrow for interesting cover and interactions for my tastes - easy fix

4) LoS from long B (far left of the "4") offers vision through the center of the map - optimization buzzkill

Here are the current spawn-to-site times in seconds:

T > A = 17T > B = 14CT > A = 9CT > B = 7

mr.P - thanks for the offering! i got slammed at the office when you posted cs_rush (finally subscribed!), and so will definitely be in touch in the near future.

Next: Address problems mentioned above; Scale Test #2 (second floor); Retakes first pass; doc update

This layout is raw, but I would like very much to see how the paths feel. Supports 5v5 defuse only.

Quote from 3Dnj

I'm worry about the fact that there is too many path in the oveviwew.

I definitely agree, and thanks! I originally wanted to create a livable space to break up the theme, but I am considering dropping the A-site down and reducing the overall size/complexity. For example:
