CS:GO - de_faubourg

[ashton93]

Hi, first WIP release on this forum, and this map is called de_faubourg. It's supposed to be an abandoned French urban district which has been turned into a small industrial centre with pipelines running through it. The job for the Terrorists is, you guessed it; bombing those pipelines and all the fuel surrounding them.

 

The map is your typical bomb defusal map with two bombsites. 

Here are two shots showing off A, the hardest bombsite to take control over for the T's. If they do manage that however, the result is very rewarding. Alot of cover is this site's main thing. The first shot is from the T perspective, the second is from a CT sniper-position.

 

 

Then there's B; the shortest route for the Terrorists. Slightly easier to take control over (beware of CT snipers and ambushers though), but harder to hold due to flashbang and smoke-possibilities for the CT's and hiding-spots for them too. Then again, if the T's uses the cover both in and outside of B, there's a good chance for a victory. This bombsite is smaller, and close-quarter battles and alot of ambushes should be expected here. There are two areas to plant the bomb at here.

 

 

 

In the middle of the map there's a pretty large open area, a site that both T's and CT's can rush to at the start of the match. It's vital that the CT's hold this "arena", seeing as the Terrorists can gain easy access to both bombsites if they break through this. To help the CT's, there are places to smoke and apartments to take control over in order to make the attacking of the place a little bit harder for the Terrorists. There is a balcony on the opposite side of T entry, this should be protected visely.

 

 

Nothing in the map is placed in randomly. Every crate, (Temporary pieces of cover for testing) piece of plywood, window and crack in walls are there for some reason or another; use them wisely.

 

The POV for a T sniperspot overlooking B site. (Beware of counter-snipers though)

 

Continuing on with some other screenshots of the map in the current state:

 

A balcony in favour of the CT's to cover both bombsite B and any Terrorists risking to go into the alleyway connecting A and B

 

The Terrorist 'fork'. The Terrorists can choose to go in 3 directions after leaving spawn; A, B or 'the arena' in the middle.

 

A rough overview of the map

 

Here's a download-link for the map which I hope you'll try out if this caught your interest;

As usual, all you have to do is to put the 'resource' and 'maps' folders in your csgo folder.

Let me know what you think, I'm always open for input or suggestions!

such unregular shaped bombsites could be irritating for players - just a thought.

also the industrial aspect you mentioned could be more obvious.
