[CS2] Citadel

[Sh1ft]

Hello, MapCore! =--)

I'm presenting my new 5v5 matchmaking map named de_citadel! The action takes place in the abandoned and overgrown fort which is used by the government to hide super secret weapon on. Unique movement elements, vertical gameplay, E-Sports layout and mega-cool beaches are already waiting for you on the playtest! I will be glad to your assessments and critics! :D

Have fun mates! =--)

Current version: Alpha 1.4.0

Inspiration
