assasination maps

[RK-]

I'm not the most CSS savy person and am not up to date on all Valve, Steam, and the like. But will there be some as maps? I know they weren't all that popular (or that many in previous cs versions), but I really liked them. My favorite being as_oilrig (yes, I know. I am weird).

There has to be some other weirdos out there that liked the as maps, too. So will there be any?

Oilrig rocks, I know. I want as_ maps to come back so badly. I don't think they're coming back, but we can still have hope.

Yea, I wish they would come back but it looks like Vavle scrapped em'. Hopefully someone will figure out how to map/mod their own. Oilrig would look amazing on source me thinks :afro:

i think a couple months ago some one released the stuff you needed to have to make an as map but i cant seem to find it

as maps were pretty cool. Swat 4's maps are like as and they're fun. I think it would be fun in css. I wasn't a huge fan of those maps but i did play oilrig occasionaly. I say make them

this is a cool idea how it fall out?

I think Vavle figured the as maps weren't that popular so they never took the time to make them. I remember the 1.6 days and it was rare to see an as map.....I liked em, the more maps he better I say

as_oilrig was my fav map ever. But no one liked it, or any as_ maps, because it was so hard as CT. People on publics just dont give a damn about objectives. It kinda blows if you're the VIP with just a pistol and everyone runs in opposite directions. So the VIP would usually run and hide, usually in the water, and rounds would drag out forever.

Which is why I really wish CS would add a deathmatch/team deathmatch option (as well as bring back as_). That way, if you dont care about objectives you can join a server that doesn't play those gametypes.

It's a shame that they couldn't even put ONE as map in the new version, and I hope that they will have one eventually. Even though AS maps weren't popular, oilrig was an enjoyable map and for a game with rather limited gameplay options (rescue hostages, blow up boxes in sandy places) it would have been nice for them to provide the as, just to mix it up a little.

assasination may be good - prob better than TF - cos in that you could just form a square and if you died, just rush to the point...Whereas with cs:s, failure = death...

I hope they add an as_ into the mix.. i like the variation in gameplay types.

Me too!

I'm actually kind of surprised so many people miss the as maps. I remember talking about how much I liked oilrig (and voting for it) on a 1.5 server, and getting lambasted for being weird.


If you do play on a server where the players care about the objectives, as maps are a load of fun.

The thing I lked about oilrig was how fast paced it was as a ct. Every second lost decreased your chances of winning.
