Narby Releases de_quarry

[I2o[G]uE TacT-X]

I havn't played the map with anybody but myself, but I'm excited. I also noticed some barrels that are from CZ (uh oh?).



I actually like airstrip, but there are a lot of areas where the bomb can be thrown to and become retrievable. I just don't like the bridge in the map.

If you want some info on people who've tested it I'll tell you what I've seen so far. I've been playing for the past few hours and its almost always been 2v2, with a little 3v3 and some mixed 2v3 and 2v1...



In these smaller matches I usuaully find it a bit easier for the T's to win cause they are just SOoOO close to bombsite B and can defend it fairly easy, so its hard to pincer it from both sides as a CT, other than that I dont find too many balance issues... the pathway from A to B without going through the CT spawn is immense though... which makes it hard to get on both sides of a site which is a disadvantage.



Also in the area with the catwalk and that truck, it is very easy to get stuck on that truck if you try to go around it on the wall side, I get stuck everytime and it takes forever to get out so I suggest you make it easier to get through or not able to get through at all.



Other than those things its really nice, the while I played it I did some pretty amazing moves sneaking around and doing some nice things, it has a bit of stealth so I really like that, theres a good bit of hallways and stuff which is always good, and very few high up sniper spots, but very nice ones. I really enjoy the map and I'd like to play it with a lot more people, it seems like it would be kindof chaotic with a lot of people but I dont know, havent found a server with more than a few people playing yet.



Good job! Thumbs up! *high five*

uh, narby, are you sure you want the download location for quarry to be an open directory?

One thing I certainly intend to do is push the T spawn back by about 2 seconds. They're getting to the A choke and B too fast.



I just played with 12 people and it was very tough on the CT. It's also a little hard for the CT to get to B with only one route. I'll add another smaller route to fix this.

hey aztec2 is in that directory

[VGK]

will this map be offical anytime in the future?

[Smurfzilla]

Narby, will you only update Aztec2 to what sClam thinks is good or are you going to listen to them, release it,then ask us like you are with quarry?

It's been tested with Sclam and about 10 CAL admins. I think you'll be playing the map sooner than you think.

[Julio Caesar]

THose are some of the greatest models I've ever seen in Counter strike, nice job.



Of course they wouldn't be the greatest models out of any HL mod, that would obviously go to Natural Selection.

damn you for lying to me..... damn myself for being fooled

hmmm i think i'll be playing it by tonight..... so i guess it must already be out?



.... a few more thoughts on quarry ....



played a few games with 8 people and found B site nearly imposible to breach once T's plant.... other than that it was good times :P

[ph33r.hell_raiser]

Looks good. From what I can see, there's has been a lot of thought out bomb cover and looks like there will be some nice strats to be developed for that map. Nice job Narby, keep it up.

[Thortok2000]

Yay! New maps! ^_^ GJ Narby. Keep it up!

[_Shorty]

haven't learned the layout yet, just ran around it for literally a minute. First thing I noticed, the doors (not doorways) are scaled rather oddly. You're pretty much as tall as the handles. Obviously a pretty much irrelevant nitpick.
