hm, if you're european (or even better german ) try the cs.de map test server, currently only the map pack:



62.67.58.86:27016 cstrike.de CustomMap Server #2 by Planet-Server.de



why doesn't csnation have it's own server btw?

I played a couple of those old maps when I tested beta5.2, and it was kinda interesting how the old maps were so different in layout than the new ones.

I mean, the current maps seem like compact mazes with many different

paths and flanking routes, but the older maps seemed more like the gauntlet types, were the teams simply start at different ends and inevitably (did i spell that one wrong?) meet along the way, with a couple of duct-like shortcuts here and there.



I`m definetly in with porting some of these maps (docks, bunker, perhaps?) to the new versions, just to see how they play now. :)



ps. what a waste of space this was.. BakA me!! :P

I can only hope that this will bring in a new wave with servers running de_dock - my all time favourite map !

The only ones I miss are de_rotterdam and perhaps cs_docks.



But the CS map policy between the updates suck. Why the hell keep shitty maps like siege, assault, militia, tundra!? Yes they are "classics", but I would rather call then "old", and they are terribly unbalanced and mostly only fun for one side! At least get them updated!



They not only keep bad maps, they remove some good ones too, e.g. cs_thunder! Not a perfect map, but compare it with e.g. siege...

They keep militia and assault because they are newbie favorites. Although seige I agree should be taken out. Then keep as_ maps as the maps no one plays!

These maps should be taken out IMO:



de_piranesi

cs_seige

de_survivor

de_vegas

de_storm (Put in storm2)

de_torn

cs_747



I like backalley but it gets no play. (haha, a map. getting no... sigh)

You must not play CS that much... Seeing as it's actually cs_docks.

Unless there is some map that's called de_dock. Unlikely, but I'll give you the benefit of doubt.

Damnit! bring back those escape maps, those were the days! (well, when I was a n00b) es_prison, and the other... and that..other...one, em.. es_trinity! etc etc!!



p.s: SinaC; I agree those maps need out! although pirensi is a well made map, its.. hmm well its more like a map from DoD (very detailed and complex I mean)

[-Aragorn]

First map I played? de_desert.



I was really n00b. I had d/l'd beta 1.0. It was at beta 2.0 or something.



Needless to say, I said "this mod sucks!". And dragged my n00b little self to n00b little TFC.



Then, I actually d/l'd the correct version later - 3.0.



Ahhh, goodness. First map - as_forest.



I remember desperately flying around as a spectator before I respawned so I could find the portal that leads to the easter egg. I thought you could get into it alive :-/.



But, with admin-mod now... hmmmmm

I swear it wasn't there earlyier. But I downloaded and saw it, too lazy to edit but not too lazy to quote!

cs_tire...haven't played that map in a lonnng time

[[ZED]YourMama]

Ahhh....sneaking around amongst the tops of the rock formations in cs_desert, my awp strapped to my back...now THAT shit was fine...

[ViRuS.]

I think they shouldve included cs_zoption. I had a lot of fun on that map back in the early days.

[-MuLDeR]

ArabStreets is back!!!

[Brutus]

The only map I care for out of the bunch is rotterdam.

[Pan the Goat God]

Yea,where uh..are the es maps?

[-:Nighthawk:-]

It's always interesting, seeing a pack like this. First off, I noticed I was missing a couple of those maps, which made me realize my counter-strike history is incomplete, heh. But mainly, I just find it funny how a list of rather odd words like "as_forest" or "cs_wpndepot" can bring back a faint crack of a smile to my face as I reminesce about hours long since gone by. And I'm sure it did the same for many of you. Ah yes... the newbie days... what fun they were. :)
