[WIP] de_biome

[Noodle King]

Starting to take shape! Looks nice

Update:

I haven't changed much after the last playtest, most people seemed to like the layout. One problem I noticed was that nobody wanted to go B. It might have been because of the tunnel making it easy for CTs to flank. Or maybe because there is only one entry making it hard to enter the site.

So far I added this door, making it harder for CTs to push the pipe, I also moved the spawns slightly so Ts get to B faster.

I also started detailing the exterior. I'll be going for this style:

Spoiler

Oh and another layout thing, I opened up this AWP spot on A again so CT can hold A long a bit easier.

Just got done with the first art pass. There's some work left but the map should be in a presentable state for the deadline.

Maybe I'll try to squeeze in that last minute playtest on sunday or tuesday.

I got the idea from this tutorial but don't know if it still works or if you can pack them into bsp. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WisP78FPs4M

Custom player models would be great, Ive always heard people talk about doing them, but simple re-skins could be a good breakthrough, instead of entirely new factions.

I like how you mixed different themes into one map. Good luck!

Fucking going off JD .  I am so much in awe of the standard of workmanship.
