[CS:GO] [WIP] de_earlywarning


    These all made sense to me, so I put them in.


    Version on the workshop updated!


    New layout:

    Changes to old B. Narrowed it a little better to make for better engagement ranges, less of a killbox:

    Changes to A. Just out of frame at the bottom is a crate to break a fall for no HP loss, making the window a route into A for CTs. Added some cover for planting, put another shipping container on the other to cover the far entrance from the window and the ramp down. Also visible to the left is the now closed old passage from mid.

    Other changes:

    - Moved CT spawn back a bit.

    - Added more clip brushes, removed some possible escapes from the map.

    - Switched incorrect bomb sites in radar (fun fact, the first site you place in Hammer is A, the second is B)

    - Larger and centered radar.

    It takes a long time to get to b from terrorist side though.amiright?


    that isnt necessarily a problem. It also takes long to take A on inferno for example. Or Season.

    The power generator underneath A window has made the map much more interesting. You can boost there to get another very cool position to hold from. Overall, these changes really improved the playabilitiy of the map.

    Scratch my earlier comment. It's actually veeeery nice, not just good. I realized how fresh and new the map now feels. There are so many strats that Ts can pull off here. It definitely took away the heavy ct bias the map had. I'd love to see another mapcore playtest for the map and especially a 5v5 playtest.

    Hey, glad you like the changes! Probably too soon to request another playtest, but a 5v5 would be interesting.

    Trying to find a way to get more eyes on it, posted it in r/csgo and it sunk without a trace, got some good feedback in r/csmapmakers, though.

    What timezone do all you guys follow? I can play in the 5v5, but the time differences

    central europe and Uk time mainly

    So I ran around on the map a bit. It looks great. But the middle area with the long path towards T side of B seems a little bland, and open.

    Thanks!

    I agree that spot is a little open. I had a shipping container thrown down in the middle there, but it was a little maze-like. Might try to add some simpler cover back in there, or kink that path.


    Are there Mapcore 5v5 playtests? Or would that be something that'd have to be organized separately?

    Alternatively, you could simply make the long stretch to t side of b roofed in with lots of electrical equipment and clutter. This would also further optimize middle.
