More pictures of de_piranesi, a new map for CS 1.5, are showing up. Twenty-three screenshots have been posted over at Gamehelper. Shacknews has sixteen of their own. All thirty-nine pictures show the newer version of Piranesi being played on a Valve server with some Valve guys.

!!!!first post!!!!!!!
looks purty! -
I have played the map. It plays and looks like an overly complex cobble. As far as visuals it's nowhere near on par with havana or chataue. How do these maps make it in? It will be like storm, empty the server when it comes up on rotation.Comment

This will be my last Piranesi pics news post, I swear.

I noticed that one of the bomb sites was changed a bit, other than that it looks like its the same as the Steam version. I hope comrade makes it, because nobody will play this map much.Comment

I got invited to the playtest, but it happened at 12 PM. Oh well.
The only map inside of the file is piranesi, comrade probably wasn't accepted.Comment

ive played this map, and it really does not add anything to cs. At least de_chateau had top-notch textures.Comment

Haven't played Piransi yet, but from the Shack shots, it seems pretty tight in the middle - quite a departure from most CS maps which rely on large spaces. I think it'd be pretty cool to have 3 or 4 CTs in a small room, one disarming the bomb whle the other 3 guard a corridor and the stairs.
The map certainly has a lot of unique features lacking in the common CS maps - lots of things that I really like, based on the layout and the use of the Z-axis and the world for interesting tactical pursuits. If anything, Piransi should be quite unlike any of the other CS maps in terms of how you play - it seems more like a 'stop/start' strategy would hold. I'd really like it to do well.
It'll certainly be interesting to see how it plays on public servers, if people actually take the time to learn the map and work out how to play it to their advantage.Comment
