New Preseason Map

[CSN NewsBot]

CAL has announced a new map for the next preseason session. The map is none other than the infamous de_dust! Nothing has to be said further, so here is the entire post:

Yes folks, that's right. The next preseason map we'll be playing on will be D-U-S-T. You thought it was only going to be played on 24/7 public servers... but oh no. It's here for preseason baby. So clear the dust (no pun intended) off of your old playbooks and strat manuals. It's time for an old favorite to be played.

As it can be seen from the comments, the general reaction is mixed to say the very least. Let the dust settle and click your way for the entire news.

[XTRMNTR]

Wow, to play a advanced map like de_dust... wowsers. I wonder what elaborate strats you can develop for this map...

It's either rush or lose. This should definitely bring some excitement to matches. You fags diss Dust, but did you ever stop to think what makes a good map? Balance is key, and Dust is one of the most balanced maps in Counter-Strike. Simplicity is also key in a good match map, and Dust nails that, too. Dust DOES require strategy, contrary to what some of you say.
