[ Siege for Source project: unveiled! ]

[ the Siege for Source project ]​

• So, what is this all about? It has been in my signature for quite some time now, and I am going to unveile today what the project is all about.
The whole project is a complete overhaul of a once so popular map for Counter-Strike. It is an initiative of my own, and the reason I want to start this project is not just to bring this cool map into CS:Source, but also to again make everyone remember the original mapper that sadly took his own life. Justin DeJong, a.k.a. N0TH1NG, has done several versions of this kick-ass map...

• So what do I need? I could use ANYTHING! Flood me with ideas for new gameplay elements, ideas, tips, offers to help out, theme's, new settings, etc... Let's make this the most popular CS:S map of all times! Cuz CS really needs a substitute for borin' old de_dust as 'most popular map'.

All of this is a tribute to N0TH1NG... even though I never knew him in real life, his story just touched me. And since this used to be a kick-ass map, I thought it would be the perfect map to bring back to CS:Source!

• Siege is not the most popular CS map of all time
• Siege sucked
• never knew about the mapper taking his own life. But he obviasly wanted to die so not much point praising his death.
• Why did you post this in general editing?
• You should have just posted the map when its done and come up with your own ideas.

I never said that, you really should read BETTER.

• Siege sucked

That is your opinion and you are entitled to it, but it obviously doe NOT mean the whole world should feel the same way. FYI, there is alot of enthusiasme about this project already.

• never knew about the mapper taking his own life. But he obviasly wanted to die so not much point praising his death.

Well sounds like you must be one of those a-social bastards I meet in real life as well.

• Why did you post this in general editing?

General editing? Last time I checked this forum was called "Help wanted and Offered"

• You should have just posted the map when its done and come up with your own ideas.

Nope you jackass, I am trying to get people to get interested, involved and I want to see what other possibly awesome ideas are floating through other peoples minds. Of course I have tons and tons of ideas of my own, and I really already have started to plan things out. In fact, this project is already RUNNING. I started this thread so it might add some quality remarks and ideas to remake this map the best way possible. I want to hear what people like/dislike about the original.


Now, if you would be so kind (IF you even CAN be) please go away and **** yourself.

It was definatly not my favorite map but it was a good map. Unfortunalty what I didn't like about the map is that it was a siege...duh ... I mean, if you are the terro you would camp all the time in the parking... There were almost no possibilities, ok there were the sewers but who will go there? So I think you'll have to redo the whole concept to make it fun... Or you should make an entire new map cuz that map had not been ported to Source and is not played alot for reasons... plus, it's not very original.

I really ask myself many times what is wrong with people.

I started this thread to ask the community what THEIR ideas are tyo make this map better for a remake.

Siege was not a very good map, face it... There is nothing wrong with people. Its just if you had any clue about this whole community you would understand stuff like this just doesn't work. Just go make your map and post pictures of it, tadaa... you can do all your talking after its finished and mention that its a tribute blah blah blah.

If I had to be constructive I would proberly say:

• Don't add vehicles, they never work with the whole dynamics of CS
• Don't add the sewers because they don't work at all... The only way I can see them working is if you make multiple entrances and made them quicker to get to the objective rather than the standard rout.
• make sure the choke points are correct because if these come out wrong you will have stupid and messed up fighting which just doesn't work.
• Don't add buildings for people to camp in.
• Have more than one entrance to the hostages; front, side and back. This is always what everyone seems to fail to do with hostage maps.

Infact... why not just make your own original map. because you have no chance with seige. The whole level just sucks balls.

Oh ye, I also already ****ed my self today. I am a little tired to do it again. sorry to disapoint you. Take into acount that 95% of humans **** them self. So its not really much of an insult. I will happily go away though, sorry to disapoint you and your project.
