Game development classyness right there.

That's right.

Total Precursor ripoff right there.

Well in all seriousness it looks better than the current layout. I'm primarily looking forward to how you replace your vents.

I guess you'll miss all your hot man-on-man action.

Congrats Nysuatro! That means you are moving to another country as well? Exciting stuff!

Wtf? lol It's on par with Pulp Fiction imo. I walked in with no expectations, and walked out with the feeling I just watched one of the most memorable movies ever.

I dunno man. It wasn't bad at all but I just didn't get into it or something. Basterds was a lot better imho...

Just saw Django Unchained... it was okay but not that good.

yep, they really took it to the next level in this trailer

cave? cellar?

looks nice anyway!

this makes me sad

and very ocd.

I liked the general idea and premise of Homefront. Looking forward to see what Crytek does with it!

That was pretty damn epic? Doubt I'll feel the same way about the game.

I liked it and I can definitely see it being adapted to fit CS, if at the very least for demolition or gungame.

Okay great, that's 21:00 CET Next playtest is Wednesday, January 30th then!

The cs1.6 version of the map was more simple without the whole paths with the vents. Maybe I should try this. I remember when we played on this map (5 years ago weee ) paths were too busy when we were playing with more than 16 players. That's why I added vents. Anyway the source version of the map was more an art test to map a map scary.

I'm actually thinking about making some path wider (the big bunker corridor with those purple crates) but I think i will keep the underground part narrow because it's something I like.

To me, it's not just the vents (though they play a VERY big part of the map's problems imho). Also, keep in mind that if you play competitive you've got team collisions and they can SERIOUSLY hinder players in those really tight corridors. Just something to keep in mind.

Could we do another test on Wednesday at 3pm eastern?

Do you mean today or next wednesday? I won't be able to attend today unfortunately.

I'm sorry, couldn't attend, celebrating birthday Should be able to make it on one of the next sessions again though!

No need to be sorry, that comment wasn't directed at anyone individually. People can't always attend, it's as simple as that. When I said it, I meant something like looking into expanding our player pool. We are just too few Mapcorians interested in CS:GO to get consistent player numbers.

Thanks Psy! And thanks to those who attended. I think that we might have to adress the low player count somehow in the future.

When it comes to the actual map (3dnjs), I have some feedback. Before you continue with the art I think the overall layout needs to be overhauled. There are simply too many corridors and paths and some of them are far too narrow and claustrophobic. It is very hard to get a good sense of the layout and I don't think all these paths help to orchestrate any rewarding combat. In general, you want 3 main paths that can be connected in different ways. I don't want to get into too much detail on the current layout, as I think it's pretty flawed and needs to go reworked quite heavily.

Visually, the map was pretty cool in places even though it's heavily WIP. But I think the areas aren't very well bound together. It's hard to decipher what kind of facility the map actually takes place in (there's some mixed signals). The corridors seem like they were built in a very improvised manner and every new room basically meant a new architectural style and lighting (generally research-facilities/bunkers etc are VERY planned out and a bit more homogenic).

All in all, I think there's potential in the map. For example, it's cool that it's a close combat oriented map and the setting is pretty interesting (reminds me a bit of de_prodigy actually). But it needs more work.

Gogogogo!

As do I!

I voted for it too.

Great, in addition to 3dnjs map we also got FMPONE's gwalinor tonight! Two map fun!

Friendly reminder that there is a playtest tonight at 21:00 CET!
