Thread: Looks like a big patch is incoming.

I'm very excited to play this latest update. The new CS mode looks like it will make cs_ maps part of the regular voting rotation now. No more de_ monotony.

Also, I love the can't-look-away-from-defusing addition.

I don't know. Hostage mode still doesn't allow for much creativity. But it is definitely much better than it was.

Definitely a much needed change, now we can actually tell if a CT is defusing or not.

It does with Italy and kind of with Militia. The map layouts are still a big issue though. Granted, with the cs rules changed we can potentially make a cs_Dust2(or w/e). Switch the team sides and place hostages in the site. The only problem I see then is Ct's being in a slight disadvantage cause they still have to run to A site then run back to spawn.

Havana had it right, cs maps need multiple entry points with multiple rescue zones. But Havana also suffered from the camper mentality cause the hostages were all in the same place.

Either way, I might have to re build my cs maps. hmmm...

I really liked Havana. I'm surprised that map has not been ported?

Yea me too, I don't think there was a large group of people who did though. It was for sure my favorite of the cs maps. Along with Compound.

The only reason I disliked Havana is that the map itself changed. If they randomly spawned the hosties to a few different points I'd have been more than happy with it. Very irritated when I go one way and discover that suddenly it doesn't exist anymore.
