What is wrong with you guys, siege was the crappest layout E.V.E.R close behind Assault

We've always had a good time playing Siege or Assault. The layouts provoke that the terrorists camp inside their base and the counter terrorists need to storm/infiltrate the place (I guess the titles "siege" and "assault" even imply that). That might not be everyone's cup of tea and in competitive play frustrating, both levels used to be great fun on LANs though!

Maps like these make me want to spend more time at css.

I loved siege in the older versions of the game, playing ct was really awsome and t had some cunning tactics to sneak up on cts all over the place too.

Looks like a very nice erework n source this, i'll try to get a test play in to see how it runs but i trust it'll run fine if you sticked to the original layout

I was a competitive player and in a competitive clan so I naturally hated the gameplay on siege and assault, still do. >_>

played the map and woah i love it! quality release!

pro:

- great lighing

- superb, clean brushwork

- good translation of source map, worthy tribute to n0thing!

con:

- i'd maybe change the roll of the light_envoironment? somehow either the lighting or the skybox seems a tad out of place? changing skybox to something more evening/morning'ish would help?

- getting hosti's out of t's base can be hard with the shutting doors. do they open automatically for hosti's too?

- some parts of the layout feel smaller then the original siege

anyway, thanks for a great release!

needs more APC

Siege was an a lot of fun, but it suffered greatly from the fact that the terrors had a huge advantage. One of the main issues was that it was too linear.

If you are remaking it, then I really think that such issues should be taken care of.

Looks pretty cool moroes, you should post ins_samawah on mapcore as well

okay my views.

frame rate is good, got around 290 in most of the map, when i was alone, however, worst place was at the main choke point, there it dropped to 100, with bots it was down to 60. the feel is good, but the sky box could match the lightning better. most of the map looks cool. but the round windows, and the ladder up to the went, doesn't work that well.

the ladder, well, why is that the only went there have a solid wall ladder?, solution, park a bigger car, or some crates. (i love crates...)

and the round windows, just doesn't look real, make then more square. for bots, they where very stupid.. didn't have problems with hosties..

i like the layout very much, close to the real siege, and thats a plus!. the sounds outside is cool as well.

the lightning is cool, but some areas are rather dark, and the blue tone might get a bit to much.

overall. 4/5 will definitely play more on this.

here are some more images. to compare with the old.. "click for large"

I think the outside area could look much better with some nice contrasted lighting and shadows.

Oh man, those interiors need some work

What most people here dont think about is that more detail would detract from gameplay and fps.

I think it looks great the way it is.

This coming from the guy who was complaining for about 6 pages that people weren't giving him constructive criticism and telling him his environments weren't believable.
