Detailing update 1

This weekend I've done a detailing test in one of the areas. (drop room from ct spawn to mid). I hope you guys like the progress.
Some props will be replaced by our own props (for example the tires).

Definitely feeling that underground concrete vibe, looks good! Although, I don't think the vines/overgrowth is super realistic - they should need sunlight to be able to grow like that right?

You might be right, I will look into it and do a little bit of research.

Impressive art! It seems just a bit too dark/noisy for current CSGO standards... i would say it looks a bit too realistic, but it is beautiful. Maybe just a slightly different lighting can make a difference in readability.

Barrels look a bit too clean to be in such a decrepit underground, tires as well.

Thanks for the feedback, we have more barrels versions and we will replace these with dirty one for sure!

We have finally decided to change our map name from the temporary "de_compound" to "de_Noordveld".

Custom assets and detailing looking cool!! I agree on the ivy in the tunnel: it doesnt fit the dutch atmosphere. If you want some foliage you better use mos instead.

Is any of you dutch? I am and I am proud u guys took a place in the Netherlands, BUT our language is kinda .... IF u guys think its smart/fitting to use the location of your reference as mapname:  I suggest to use a english translation instead and name it 'Northfield'. Personally I think you guys are better off naming your map based on the theme and background story so once you read the title you get a idea or glimp of where the map is located at. It could help for you guys to pick one location and target and go for it I guess since u guys have so many ideas.

Anyways nice progress keep it up!

Hello, thanks for the feedback, and yes LG2K its from Netherland. I know your language, but i think if we set the map on Netherland, we need to use Netherland name and Noordveld its good for us (also you can see on the sewer lid we put same name to) for the ivy im not sure Lg2K can answer here, again thanks for the feedback, and we will think about this.

Cheers!

Detailing update 2

I've done a bit more detailing. The area still needs a bit of work but this is what it is so far. Detailing update 1 and 2 are now available on the workshop too (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1104149332). The new areas still need some optimization so your fps might not be as good as it should be.

Some spider web would be nice.

The transition from the walls to the floor seem a bit harsh on the last screenshots, maybe try some sort of trim? You really know how to set a mood in these corridors, good job!
