Train Coming?

[LeRaldo]

train could either be amazing, or extremely bad. I'm fearful of it being too dark everywhere.



as for other maps, right now i think valve needs to work on getting maps just like this out. train, inferno, NUKE FOR CHRIST'S SAKE



of course nuke won't be what it was on 1.6 simply because you can't shoot through most walls in source and the corners of walls you can shoot through does WEAK damage. But i still think it's a great map.



competitive play NEEDS these maps. oh, and cs_ maps are bad.

Italy is one of the best maps ever. Office as well. CS maps aren't bad, per se. It's just that nowadays, more mappers make de maps.

The more maps made, the better chance for a good one that lasts.

Most of my favorites are also de maps.. but to malign CS maps like you did isn't accurate.

Can't wait to see what treatment de_train got to go through... it'll be pretty cool if you could go through the box cars.

Someone even posted the textures from some of those files right here:

Cal players are going to be happy.

I'd rather see the map instead of files =)

I wish they'd go in some sort of order bringing out the "classic" maps first.

cool new textures. chance at train. yay.

[Tbfh-Yep]

Lol guys it's 6 textures. It's nothing to get excited over, and they aren't even real textures for mapping, they're textures for the props/models that are in train.



I have no clue how, by those 6 textures, that you can say

by those screenshots it looks like the map will be done in no time.

that was mentioned here

I'm still trying to find the reason why Valve thought they needed to upload 2kb's in textures. I was guessing that some of those textures for props were in de_tides since it kind of seems useless to add them for no reason. I guess Valve is just trying to arouse suspicion, once again, those bastards!

Cliffe says (very bottom post): Hacked by Chinese.



reference from the article from a few days ago for those that have no clue.

Thats so funny.

Assault is coming quicker than you think. I'm in the process of mapping the first beta for it. It includes all sorta of sexy goodies.

de_ maps simply play better. Hostage maps don't allow hardly any tactical play since the hostages are all close and all must be rescued to win the objective. I don't play cs_ maps much but when I do, I rarely see hostages being rescued without the T team being killed or almost completely whiped out.



de_ maps just play much better for both pubs and competitive play.

VALVe has been making the maps brighter and brighter with many of the updates, so it's probably going to be brighter. It never really was that dark to begin with.

Well I guess either way ... If ValVE is gonna give us train then DOPE ... If they weren't planning on it, then maybe the communities sudden EXTREEME HARD ON over this possible rumour weill get their ass in gear on it
