so, a new CS:S map from valve

[Phlek]

Its not by Valve, its by Turtle Rock Studios.

Right-o, but Valve did say they are releasing a small hostage map which is still in play testing. I wonder what it could be, ooooooooooooOOOooOOO :-o

I hated the stealth missions, I remember when you had to set fire to piece of paper in a waste basket with the lighter and I always kept getting caught.. :x

The noclip and notarget commands are there for a reason!

NOLF anyone?

*Nolf image*

I love this game so much.

Me too, criminally underrated and one of the longest FPS's you'll ever play...

It pretty much has everything you want from a fps. Just when you think you must be near the end, you get sent somewhere else!

It was sort of like HL2, except the buggy was replaced by a motorcycle, the boat was replaced by a snowmobile and Gordon was replaced by a sassy Scottish thief/secret-agent woman.

NOLF was the first FPS game i ever owned.

Im getting sick of leafless trees, too.

Also, i dont think it's germany. I think its italy (flag colors). Make a goddam ireland map, valve or turtlerock!

I like the map, but i think it's not a smart move to go out and make this map. As far as i remember from CZ, it had bad gameplay. And the community is desperate to get a CS:S version of Nuke, Train and all the other 'league' maps. So nice map, but their priorities are just wrong.

[/selfish sidenote] de_tides was originally made at gearbox by daveJ and mike wardwell

[Linga]

so why do you think is the pubs name written in german?

but agree @trees. it's no big deal to make them look greener

@mikezilla: so do you think these guys will like you any longer after doing this post? :wink:

i think they should be making the other player models, not new maps.

So their mappers should be working on player models? I would like to see what it will look like...

Valve never bought nuke, so they cant make it.

[Mazy]

interesting...

[Guest Zeta]

If their map is similar in atmosphere to the one i pictured then id be rather happy.

[DaanO]

Valve never bought Nuke? That makes no sense.

[mike-0]

i hate train.

[Hourences]

looks like an ut map

the super coloured things are terrible, rest is cool stuff

at least not hl2 industrial city like cause im absolutely sick of that style already and i dont even play the game

[Bluestrike]

I think de_nuke was to old for Valve to buy and they expected it to be dropped by the players soon, but that never happened.

Meanwhile they force crappy & huge maps on the players nobody wanted to play (de_chateau, de_storm, de_pirensi, de_torn but I liked the last one a bit).

Yes they look pretty nice, but are to large and confusing for most players to lean and enjoy them. (and in the case of de_storm, to dark)

Hell they still haven't given up and continue this policy with css.

Most servers thrown de_chateau cs_havana and de_pirensi of their mapcycle already ...

If I learned anything from cs_beirut, its that the cs players want small, fast maps in a rounds based game.

And yes it would be time to see some new player models,

cs had about 5 models for each side and css only 1 ...

But hopefully this time its map specific

Hmm Hourences does that mean you might try HL2?

To quote Arnold, "STOP IT! STOP WHINING!"

You are getting FREE. QUALITY. CONTENT.

The gameplay is not going to get better with more player models.
