i get like 25 fps on that map with 16+ people = no win

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

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.

Yup. I like the game better with only one player model for each team. It's less confusing to someone like me who doesn't play CS enough to instantly recognize, out of 8 or 10 skins, who's a T or a CT. Besides, more player models/skins = more memory consumed.

Personally i'm a fan of the new map. I like the colors alot, and it plays pretty well, mainly like it because its something new to me because i never played the CZ version.

cool it runs super fast on my pc Prolly cos they didnt use any kind of pixel shading as far as i can see

Its too cluttered IMO. I was constantly sticking on either a model or highly exagerated wall designs. I mean do you really think they needed a pillar every 2 meters in each wall. And call me a NOOB if you must, but where the hell is this place, it looks like disneyland.

+ Fun

+ Looks great

+ Not bad layout

- Too many props

- Wall supports in hall ways are OVERDONE

- A bit cartoonish

This sums it up for me pretty well. It can be fun at times, but it doesn't play very well, i really doubt this map is gonna be any popular. I mean shotguns are fun, but when it comes to serious gameplay, this map is a big no-no. I like the look from an artistic point of view, but the map fails when i run a reality check. "Where is this place" is exactly what i thought. I just hope the enviroments in CS2 will be more live-like, it would be good because it would be more convincing, and players would be more dragged into the game.

Finally got to play this map, and I must say... it owns.

I love the fast and varied gameplay it has, and it looks sexy as hell.

Kind of confusing at start. But it looks good and plays good.

Well the solution to that is to have the same body with many varied heads and then do different styles per climate and stuff

desert

snow

urban

etc
