The following is just WIP content. Skip to the map release post here https://www.mapcore.org/topic/23889-cs16-dust-2-2020/?do=findComment&comment=463281
I've always wanted to make my own dust2 clone with new textures and details, so I'm making this for the 20th anniversary of the game. I'm also making a seperate version of the map for my friends who run a server, and they want me to add new connectors. I would appreciate feedback to make sure it's balanced properly. Here's what I made so far:
I added stairs from CT spawn to short A (https://imgur.com/lHcu8pI). This would give CTs easier mid control, which is why I have opened the double doors from outside B tunnels to top middle (https://imgur.com/6nlaWdX). I'm considering adding a connector from T spawn to the new tunnel I've made so Ts can access top mid faster, then close off the other doors leading to outside tunnels.
You can also get to B site from lower tunnel with these new stairs (https://imgur.com/eCe28XW). CTs will now be able to see into lower tunnel from short. These windows have been opened (https://imgur.com/8l2Ss1T) (https://imgur.com/hXbLbQ5).
