Looks like a big patch is incoming.

Can we start playing hostage maps now? Seems more fun.

Played a few rounds with bots...very fun.

This update is good. However, unless the TPG community gets over its' silly hatred of CS maps...I fear this will have little impact...and that's a bit sad.

Anyone else love what they've done?

Hostages are now more spread out so cs_ maps won't become a camp fest for T's(aside from office and assault they're still to close together to really make a difference in gameplay).

In Italy one hostage is in the house and the other is in the Mid/apartment connector. Militia has either one downstairs, one upstairs, or one in the back garage. You never get 2 hostages in the same area.

I also like that you can't look away from a defuse.

The problem most people have with cs maps is that the hostages are two close and the maps force you to rescue all hostages. Both of those issues have been fixed, and now cs maps play more like de maps.

We can only hope, because I love CS maps....back when I first started playing, we played every map. We didn't sit there moaning "This gameplay mode is unbalanced!!"....we just played.

lol I did. I love the cs maps but always hated the layouts and the gameplay. I hated that the game forced you to go to point A then forced you to go to point B. But now its fixed yaya

I support a fee to play MM only if they get a little more aggressive on anti-cheat.

Steam Users' Forums - View Single Post - Why Valve!!!! I expect a response from you.

I don't know if there's any merit to that...but, a bit worrying to say the least.

I wonder how they're going to handle community servers running custom maps (i.e. TPG?)
