M-m-m-megabump!

 

Got an extra smoke and some pop flashes.

This smoke should work very well in combination with the balcony smoke to get into B real quick.

​No megabump then, didn't notice your post until now

Thanks! Feel free to share any smokes or flashes you discover

Also, what pixelwalk? I might wanna fix that.

So I successfully convinced a game full of people to stop killing each other and just read about Lions on de_zoo!

​the problem is that you cant do it from the opposite direction

I took my little giraffe for a walk today and me and Exodus got the ball stuck in the air

seems impossible to just post the gif...

I remember this one being fixed in an early playtest build? How do these issues keep coming back?

Wtf? Never seen that one before, Vaya. No clue how that is even possible, lol.

[Vaya]

hmm I'm sure I remember people throwing the bomb at your concave windows after the first playtest. Might be a coffee induced dream though. I'm going to see if I can replicate the GIF tonight. Need an overpriced awp skin first though

[Vilham]

So played a few rounds deathmatch of zoo

Hands down the best looking source map I've seen. Everything is clean but there is enough detail to sell everything, really feels like a real place. Haven't played it in competitive but I remember from the very first playtests it was quite fun.

I can only hope to make my maps sell as well as this. So much attention to detail without just adding noise.

Have you got any reference sheets or images you used for this, would be very interested to see how they translated.

Thanks, Vilham

I used a ton of references. I can surely post some of them, but it would help if you said what kind of stuff you are looking for. References for general areas? References for how to "dress up" parts of the map? Quite some areas in the map are based on existing places, but they're from all around the world. Maybe I could write a "making of" article about it if there's some interest for that?
