csgo de-map wip

[esspho]

Hi there!

I'd like to share a layout that's in the making.

 

I feel that my last map didn't make so well layout-wise so this is somewhat a new approach on the same theme - being loosely based around a mining facilty.

Therefore I'll reuse some of the materials and props that I allready have. I've yet only tested the map with a friend but I think it could work. Don't mind the workingtitle - I simply couldn't decide yet. I will try to get in queue for a playtest soon and I'm excited for any feedback.

I ran around the map and I liked the feel of it, with the train track running along the map. But theres just so many paths. I don't think it will work well in a 5v5 situation. I really recommend simplifying the layout and decrease the amount of paths.

 

I made a quick picture to show what I mean with simplifying and removing paths.

I hope this feedback will help, Keep it up!

Have to agree with Fredrik, the layout looks super complicated and overdone from the radar picture. Simplify it and make it more accessible.

TL;DR: Map too complex

@JustFredrik Thanks for taking your time to do this! I really like your changes and can picture most of them. I'm not sure about the shortened t-spawn though but who knows. I'd really like to have a playtest on the current layout and then work with that.

Thanks again.

I wanted the same thing with my map. I knew a few routes that was far too complex (*hint*), but playtested anyways.

People will complain about it and they should. I think it's better to test once you have ironed out all of the problems that you know about, so that the playtest be used to find the real faults instead.

It's fine if you still wan't to test it, but know that people might focus their feedback on the confusing layout more than the map itself, if that makes any sense, dunno, I'm tired, need coffee...
