[CS:GO] de_invade

A lost medieval city in the midle of the Forrest have been taken over by growing plants and tree's.

EDIT: New name: Invade instead of Acquisition. Acquisition didn't ha da right definition to discribe the map and this one is alot easier to write haha. Uploaded the newest version on another workshop.

Ready for a playtest!

Hahaha yeahh.. I know right. It are just placeholders for now. I hoped to have some torches with fire later on. Or maybe these lamps with candles in it. But yeah I am no modeler

Thanks! Yeah I hoped to keep some good vissibilities and not alot of plants disturbing the view. I have been working some more on it, but I am quite struggling with the other bombsite and abit on midle, but I take tiny steps and once I get there I'll post some more screenshots. I hope to get a basic greybox done so I can test the layout and people can walk arround.

Yeah I have took a look, they use lots of open roofs, I can defenitly use that by adding broken roofs/ceilings but it won't work for all places.

Anyways.. I have a ruff greybox of the whole map. There is no radar yet. I have to fix a few things. Cover up a few bad seightlines, fill up CT some more and get rid of some nodraws and then I will add a radar for hopefully a playtest.

You can subscribe to the map and walk arround already if you like: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…s/?id=890352461

And a few screenshots of T spawn, midle and A site:

To be honest its almost entirly my imagination. I searched on google 'german castle' and 'overgrown castle/cathedral/ruins' and used some inspiration from that.

Excuse me for my spam on this topic. I hope I won't bother u guys too much with the updates.

There is now a working radar and you can still walk arround the map just check the first post for a link to the workshop

I have had a 5 vs 5 competetive playtest with friends.Based on this playtest I changed some minor things troughout the map: filled up B main a litle, extended midle in length, made the A main entrances thinner and closed up alot of view seights on A connector. Besides the litle changes I completly changed A bombsite.

Started to add some background details on T spawn, next will be the background of the main path to A bombsite as these areas most likely won't change alot. I am kinda experimenting with what I want with the 'feeling' of the map. What do you guys think of this?

I Hope to recieve some feedback on what I could improve. Right now it's not fully detailed but it's close to what I want. The playable area of the map will mostly be made from stone structures and the background will be more made out of woden structures/houses and this part shown in the screenshots will be in between where a more royal building fades into a woden bottem down village. And ofcourse plants taking all over the place! I have to do some more on that part, but too bad there are not many good climbing plants to use

EDIT: Some small changes:

Changed the name to Invade and uploaded it on a new workshop with the latest update: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…s/?id=903916745

The definition of Acquisition was something else I thought it was so

I decided to make it more of a tourist place.

So a medieval city with this seight seing castle/palace place with gardens.

Workshop is up to date, feel free to walk arround!

Thanks!

Got some new screenshots of the update.

I will update the workshop once I made a radar and fixed the bot navigation

edit: Workshop is updated! Sorry that the bot navigation isn't working right now. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…s/?id=903916745

And a new overview:

Hello it have been a long time but in small steps I managed to work on the art of this map. It's in 'Alpha' state and there is still alot of work need to be done I guess. Since I am new to enviorment art I would love to recieve some feedback from you guys!

To do list:

Thanks for the feedback!

My first idea was to go for a abondon overgrown castle in the midle of a forrest, but over time I thought about a more touristic castle located in a old medieval german town. Those two things kinda got mixed up together which leads us to your point haha. This map as a identity crisis.

Anyways this map can use some stronger identity indeed and have more details, but I have kinda abondon this project. It was a great learning progress and now I got my focus on other cool stuff for Pirates Vikings and Knight II
