That was a problem with one of the betas, but should has been fixed in the final version. At least I have yet to see a ct die while playing it.

Great review narby.
In my opinion Volare should be considered for official inclusion.
And Robbery as well (although as far as I remember it *has* been considered and rejected a while back).
Oh, will you be correcting the comment about the CT spawning in the Volare tidbit?Comment

Aztec is my favorite, and coicidently best, map. I've had my best scores ever there, 7:1 and I think even higher before. I can kick some serious butt on that map when I'm mad.
And, to stay on topic, I think the new map pack looks great. But yep: here comes a newbie question: where do you unzip the files?Comment

Try playing aztec with a quite loud headset and without stopsound. You will definitely kill yourself within 5 minutes. Other than that aztec is great.
Some guy on gamesnet has now persuaded me to play custom maps so this pack might be a good start.

In other words, that's no big feat. ; P

Robbery is a blast, especially with like 20 players. My only beef with Volare is that the CTs are damn near invisible in most areas of the map. If they camp the stream or up by the top bombsite, you sometimes can only see them with the hud-id. However from my experience, volare is really only good with a good number of people. There are so many different ways to hit a bomb site that I have played T where we bombed 3 times in a row with out seeing a CT. The sounds are great though. Tagea is okay, but if you have a strong CT squad, they can camp in places (especially bombsites) where they can see you or your legs well before you see them (like up in rafters) and take you out too easily. I also think there may have been too many tree for people to camp too. Narby's review of dolomeiten was spot-on.Comment

lots of custom maps at my server - just type connect cs.joe.to :)
(ip is 64.81.70.193)
i'd like to know if there's other new good custom maps besides 3-4 of the maps in this map pack. i run about 30-40 custom maps on my server and most of them are at least a year old. i just don't see maps like predator, revenge, tropic, shadow, or place3 come out that often. maybe the map-making world is burnt out on cs?

IM a little late posting this (my cable was down for like 1/2 a month) so i doubt anyone is going to read it. Personally i think these new maps suck. Yeah they look GREAT, but the gameplay is shit. It all comes down to MP5 spray and pray in these close to medium ranged maps. Look at it this way de_dust looks like shit (repeated textures all over) but thats the most played map in CS. Why? Because the gameplay is good, people will be amazed by cool looking textures and a great looking map. But if it doesnt play good, then they get bored. And you know why the maps suck? THERES TO MUCH SHIT IN THEM! Piranesi exploded when it came out, now i have only seen about 100 servers with it and most of them only about half full. The only people who really like those maps (for gameplay) are MP5 whores.
Does what we say here really impact what will happen in CS?
I seriously doubt it, as long as the CS-team gets payed it doesnt matter what we think.Comment

Have you actually played the maps on a public server with a bunch of other people (and don't just say 'yes' in an attempt to shut me up).
You have a bunch of highquality maps, and it seems like you write them off simply because the layout doesn't resemblance dust enough?
And another thing: Do you have *any* idea of the work it takes to come up with an original idea for a Counter-Strike map?
Please note, this is not a weak attempt at flaming you, nor am I just standing up for these maps because I am related to the mapping community. It's just that you argument seems very unsubstanciated.

MP5 WHORES !!??? WTF are you babbling about???
What gun do you want us buy?
Anyway!...most people like dust because its simple(Simple maps for simple minds.)...some people have poor sense of direction.
The problem with piranesi is the layout...dead-ends, facades, missing rooms etc!
Havana on the other hand totally rocks!Comment

these maps remind me of my pre cs days and my transition to cs from rs (rogue spear) 2 1/2 years ago... someone should convert the siberian maps and the met to cs mapsComment
