    Not many players know this, but in the early version of de_aztec, you can die of natural hazard (lightning strike) if you stand too long in one particular spot at the main courtyard, or what this vid called bombside B, or marked as A in the map.
    I started playing CS from ver 1.0 btw (I'm old, I know)

    I'm very confident that the very first version was actually in CS (beta) 6.5 ... a great release back then introducing a lot of new features and maps, but was also very buggy with the new "netcode". That's why 6.6 was released already a few weeks later with some major fixes. "I was there. I was there 3000 years ago..."

  • @XanderNiles
    @XanderNiles ปีที่แล้ว +67

    The lightning strike in the first version of Aztec can kill the player but the odds for it to happen are low.
    Anyways, you did a good job by covering this iconic map. One of my favorites back in the day. Hell, I enjoyed it playing on MM before it got removed despite being CT sided.

    Very cool video, esp. about the skybox being from Doom.
    FYI in the 1.6 version crossing the bridge would trigger the thunder sound: that's how the CTs would know the Ts were rushing bridge :)
    On 20+ man servers de_aztec is a slaughterhouse against Ts unless they all rush: but given that these are pubs they rarely do haha.

    I played this map competitively in 1.5 and I absolutely loathed it. Those double doors man...such a meat grinder. And I sucked at shooting up or down stairs, something about the silhouette and the recoil, I dunno. Never got the hang of it.
    Edit to add: by the way, there was some graphics setting that could be changed via console that made the hanging bridge in the 1.5 version of the map disappear completely. We never used it but I saw top clans use it at a LAN competition. Since all console commands were allowed, it was not technically a cheat. But I do remember feeling betrayed when I saw it.

    • @drb0mb
      @drb0mb ปีที่แล้ว +4

      oh right, that was like gl_alphamin. there were a lot of console commands that provided dubious advantage, and that was so cool about retail CS. i spent so much time experimenting with them, like gl_overbright which eliminated shadows completely but everything was blindingly fullbright. some commands were effectively cheating.
      shit, it was even fun to experiment with actual cheats since no VAC existed, and there was a certain satisfaction with being able to use them without being obvious and getting called out. that was a double-edged sword because i found the amount that you'd have to "retard" your actual skill in order to deter detection was almost not worth it. still, you got valuable insight into how other players behaved when using certain hacks, which made them identifiable, and then you could strategically counter. like the custom sprays that were aimbot sensor colors that you stand by in common peek spots. what a cool time for this game.

    • @cryptomaniac2
      @cryptomaniac2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not many people may know but if you ran across the bridge in a certain pattern, the thunder wouldn't go off to alert CT that you were crossing the bridge. Also, the staircase leading up to CT side, if you walked up those stairs instead of run, the thunder wouldn't go off either. This is in regards to 1.6
      Edit: Someone can correct me in the comments about the staircase, I'm pretty sure walking up the stairs wouldn't trigger it but my memory may not be right there.

    I loved aztec on 1.6 because of the rain and thunder elements, and because of the long range angles, perfect to awping. Then I loved it in csgo when it first came out because it looked so fucking cool to me... It`s a shame that they deleted it. They could`ve just remake it to be a little bit balanced, for example a new stair under the bridge or some kind of a tunnel that will lead the way to A, simply to make another spot to hold for CTs. Also, I like ancient too, but it doesn`t seem to be very popular, maybe if they named it Aztec2 it would`ve brought more people into it.

  • @t3h51d3w1nd3r
    @t3h51d3w1nd3r ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I love Aztec and if you don’t like the aesthetic, there’s Dusty Aztec, no more dark corners. In my local lan if maps got ct sided we used to swap one or 2 top t players over and it usually balanced out. If there was access to A site(the one near ct spawn) then there would be 3 points of attack and if the new rotation hall was attached half way up the stairs, it would be better for Ts. The 3 lane rule is ok but I think sites are better if the have 3 points if access for Ts, that way CTs can be traded easier.

    Aztec's layout was unconventional by today's standards but was really fun, it was a great FFA map, I'm pretty sure some tweaks to it could have made it a more balanced map. The openness was very aim-based like dust2 and very easy to understand. I find modern competitive maps over complicated and hard to master since there's so many paths and hideouts etc...
