Shutup, as_ maps blow ass hard and you all know it. Don't try to play the "look at me I'm retro-CS" card and pretend to like this garbage. There's a damn good reason es_ maps phased out entirely, and as_ maps are unpopular: because the gameplay sucks.
Sure, CS is a team game, to an extent. But you get a stupid VIP (and considering it's most likely a public server, you're going to get stupid people more often than not) and the game is miserable. If the T's have any sort of collective brain, killing the VIP is so ridiculously easy that the fun of the game is sucked dry quickly.
Having your weapons restricted to the crappiest of crap weapons also sucks. No one likes those guns, except for those people who like to pretend they're good with the Mac10 or UMP. Who do you guys think you're kidding?
If this were a simple question of to have or not to have, I'd say go for it. I can't stand as_ maps, but like people attracted to scat porn, you guys are out there. But as we've seen, Valve hardly has their act together in Source. I'd rather them not waste their time on a stupid and unpopular game mode when there's huge problems to be fixed.
I'd like to see them stop wasting their time with cs_ maps too, but I know alot of people enjoy the maps and atleast the gameplay is decent. Office used to be one of my favorite maps when I sucked at the game. This game isn't about extreme teamwork and coordination, it's about fast paced, non-stop action. as_ maps fail to deliver in both aspects, and I really hope Valve doesn't waste their time trying to breathe life back into this dead gamemode.
"lolol now the VIP can kick over barrelz this rules!"

I'm glad to see there are some others out there that appreciate the same things in this game that I do. Hopefully I'll stumble across you or guys like you from time to time. :)entRo wrote..
So basically you're trying to convince us that CTs using M4A1s and Ts using AK47s is part of your unpopular weapon set? Or are you deliberately focusing on some minor restrictions and ignoring the bigger picture in an attempt to trick people into thinking horribly constrictive rules exist in this gameplay mode? About the only weapon restriction that honestly affects the gameplay is denying the AWP to the CTs. That said, I wouldn't mind per-map options for weapon restriction... we all use the M4/AK setup most of the time, and it's fun to break out of that for a while.

So your view of what the game is "about" is the only one that can exist? Who put you in charge of deciding what CS is or is not about?
I'd say one of the largest appeals to this game is that it can be played so many different ways. Want to run in guns ablaze? Go for it. Want to sneak around walking everywhere, picking off people from a distance? No problem. Want to be a loner? Find your own path. Want to try to coordinate with others? Bust out the voice comm and make it happen.
Kind of sad to see that some people have such narrow viewpoints that they consider their personal play-style preference to be the only acceptable one...Comment

Well put Nighthawk. I personally like playing as maps most of the time, mainly oilrig, but tundra is fun too if i can find a server playing it. It would be great if there were one or two new as maps. As for the people that don't like it, that's fine too. No need to go around trashing it though...Comment

As far as I remember, CTs aren't allowed to use M4's on atleast oilrig, but I havn't bothered to really play any other as_ maps so I could be wrong. I don't remember T's having AKs either, but I havn't played oilrig in years.

It was just one part of my dissapointment with as_ maps.So your view of what the game is "about" is the only one that can exist? Who put you in charge of deciding what CS is or is not about?
I wasn't saying "this is how the game should be played", but rather "this is how it's usually played". I realize the game can be played many different ways, and that's a good thing. But only simple and basic teamplay works in public servers. You can deny it up and down, but come on, public servers aren't exactly shining monuments to intelligence.Kind of sad to see that some people have such narrow viewpoints that they consider their personal play-style preference to be the only acceptable one...
Well, that's not what I said at all. It's just hard to believe people actually enjoy playing maps like as_oilrig when there's mountains of better maps out there. It's a flawed game mode, and I'd rather not see the Source team waste their efforts on it when there's much more important stuff to do.Comment
