Ohh, wow... that´s the 3rd best thing that´s happened to me today and possibly all year. Really makes me feel good to see that my favourite "map maker" commented here. Thanks a lot!

As I said, I mostly finished both mid and A site. Here it is on the workshop: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…s/?id=700501278

I still need to add cover though, but I´d like to take some feedback on which parts of the map it´d be best to add cover.

yep, still got to add a lot of cover and walls. This was just a quick "finish" to get it on the workshop. Hopefully get some feedback and place walls and cover depending on the feedback.

So making the ruins and B site was easier and faster than expected. Here´s an early look at b site:

Sooo, the layout is basically done, here it is:

I think Bombsite B and T spawn are to close to each other. CTs can hardly arrive before Ts. Besides the direct straight lines and paths stil appear a bit to simplistic to me. The ruins in the center of the map are interesting imo. keep it up!

Hmm, I see. To make it harder for Ts to get to B site I could switch the walls so the Ts have to go around. As of the ruins in the middle... they´re mostly there for aesthetic reasons to make the map look "denser." But I may open up a path if I see that could make gameplay better. I do have to work on the long sightlines, true. But I´m taking my time. I´m currently in "exam era" so I´m not putting much time to mapping.

Your map also features a bunch of really long, straight, narrow pathways that look boring and difficult to fight in. The pathway outside of A seems a little too out of reach, and would probably be a chore just to access.

Also, as a last note, just judging from the overview it looks like your map is missing cover in a lot of areas, which is probably why it looks so empty. Add cover in key areas to add depth to your map.

Best of luck!
