[CS:GO] DE_Breach - Released!

Puddy · April 1, 2017

Hi all!

As you all know, Valve overhauled the CS game mode (hostage rescue) to try and make it more competitively viable, which was really cool to see. This has inspired me and Yanzl and after a lot of back and forth we have finally decided to make this version of the level into an Escape level instead, changing some rules and tweaking the game mode to make it more viable. We feel that the DE_ map pool is saturated enough already and that players would enjoy this new direction way more.

The story will be that terrorists have just finished tampering with, sabotaging or otherwise stealing info from the server room (where they spawn) and need to escape in one of three locations. This gives the map a fresh take as the layout is effectively rotated 90 degrees, creating new choke points and combat areas. We will be playtesting this shortly, stay tuned!

Unfortunately read the fool's post first, otherwise would have been very believable… was expecting the link to redirect to an April fool's CS blog post tho!

That being said, the game mode sounds very fun! I would dig playing something… and I would imagine it's still possible to create such maps? I understand CSGO supports custom modes, and I've seen just couple days ago 3kiksphilip promoting a domination map of his.

Just put the hostages in the room with the Counter Terrorists spawn points. They have to take the hostages out. It's essentially just cutting the CS game mode in half, sounded fun.

Hope it will live to its name,make it as good as you can it might be a candidate for Active Duty Pool since people will demand it because cs_Agency is probably most popular community map.

Update! Map is now called Breach, and here's the progress we've made so far:

FMPONE · August 18, 2017

Classy! Wonderful ambiance.

blackdog · August 18, 2017

A bit grey but faithful to a lot of buildings of this kind.

Whats the location setting? Can't remember if was explained with the old name (has it changed at all?)

The slide makes me think of Epic offices or something like Google

Hey guys, the map pretty much almost done, so here's one last update before release.
