CSGO's Rework Problem

  • CSGO's map reworks have become iconic throughout the years, and everyone is eagerly waiting for the mirage remake. No matter how long it takes, it is important that this rework is a faithful recreation of what mirage does right, and irons out some of the issues with the map currently without changing it too heavily. Either way though, cs is sick, there are other maps, and valve will probably do fine.

    For me, the map I find myself missing the most from the competitive map pool is cobblestone. The map doesn’t feel like anything else in the game from the gameplay to the aesthetics so it’s a real shame it’s gone.

    I really miss Aztec. It was so much fun playing this map in my early days of cs:go when I didnt really know what was going on or what I was doing, but that map made the cunfusion somehow really enjoyable. Cobblestone is also severely missed, it was one of my favourite maps before it got reworked, I have still yet to see a map that plays somewhat similar to Cobble

  • @tommydean8727
    @tommydean8727 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Cobblestone was a gorgeous map that, to me, plays totally different than a lot of the maps in the pool now. Its such an iconic map with a ton of memories, so it definitely needs to make a comeback. To be fair all of the maps do. There are so many maps that I forget about playing back in the day but not a day goes by that I don’t get multiple rounds of dust ii and mirage. As much as I like consistency, a few surprises sprinkled in here or there would be refreshing

Specifically the simple ones that keep your interest locked in for the whole time while retaining that replay value, like utopia v3 or kitsune 2. I know its not necessarily a csgo map, but its what I love about this game.

    My favorite map was basalt, because how it was on comp for a limited time while still being a good map. I remember when I first played it, it was a exquisite, and how it was balanced with T side and CT side. I wish it was a perma map but all I guess all good things have to end.

  • @alvinhedstrom3083
    @alvinhedstrom3083 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I really enjoyed insertion 2! The open map was really fun and made for some great meme gameplay but it was balanced out by the fog, and you could choose to play fast paced around the middle of the map or slower and more passive lurks by the edges and corners. Love the content!

    Militia is a map I always found interesting, other than the scenery, I found the gameplay fun and sure, while it's hostage mode which is a gamemode with not a very good reputation, I liked it nevertheless.

    I really really like Insertion II. That is the map I played the hell out of while it was there. I remember the first couple of days when it was new for everyone and I figured out the timings and hiding spots after a game or two and proceeded to steamroll almost everyone trying to play there for a day or two. And even after that it was the map I had the most fun on. It has so many options on how to approach the objective, thus never gets boring. Really a shame to see it gone now. I wish for its return. I had the chance to play on the first map, which was the one that brought the deployment location selection to life, and it was good, but not as amazing as the second one.

    • @BeatCrazey
      @BeatCrazey ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I loved Insertion II because it felt like you were playing a very different game... It was also one of the only hostage rescue maps where CTs could actually WIN. Every angle as a T always had a counter angle, I loved that.

      The Insertion maps elevate hostage mode to something great. Jammed the hell outta Insertion 2 when it was out, loved the openness, the relative ‘brokenness’ with how many random spots you can boost up and use to your advantage. It actually felt challenging and was best enjoyed with a 5-stack, you had to communicate with your team instead of the regular playing-on-autopilot type gameplay that the regular bomb defusal maps are known for. I miss it

    Ever since Basalt was removed, I’ve really missed playing it. I enjoyed both the aesthetic and gameplay, and it gave way to numerous unique strategies. It felt different from other maps, while still having the fundamental passageways and layout, and it let players utilize pretty much any kind of gun effectively.

    Favorite map has to be cs_assault. I used to play it so much in 1.6, but the CS:GO version never really captured the same feeling and playability of the old one. I think it could be a viable competitive map - well, as viable as hostage maps are - if reworked properly. But maybe it should be just a casual map, meant to be played 10 v 10 like it used to be.

    From me the map missing from the competitive and actually from the game rn is Aztec i loved the aesthetic of that map the pyramid the fact that's easier to learn sniping (even if i hated to get sniped too) it's nostalgic from me and it was the first map I've ever played in CS source, it's wonderful in all aspect and have a lot of good aesthetic i guess the only map that can reproduce that is Cobblestone and the Italian map that was released in 2018 or 2017 where there's a bridge and water...
    Those map didn't feel like an empty cube like dust 2 they felt alive and like a real place that exist in ours world.
    It was immersive and that's why I loved it they where more based on immersion than competition...

While it had problems, I think it still played a fair bit better than most people realized.

    I loved playing a ton of community maps. One of my personal all-time favorites was black gold. It was frantic and had lots of angles, but it was fun. Season is another really fun map. I also had tons of fun playing resort. There are many more that I enjoyed back in the day but couldn't say how well they'd hold up today. Workout is another interesting map but it's hostage rescue. I'm sure I missed a lot of maps I've forgotten but I do wish that the map pool would be increased and keeping the same active map pool number and rotating maps in and out at the end of each season.
    Anyway, that's a little bit of the maps I can remember having a ton of fun with back in the day.

    Whenever I search through the competitive map pool, I’m always scanning for Aztec. Although the verticality reminds me so much of agency, it does not suffer from being to open in spots that shouldn’t be and closed off in spots that should allow a sightline. I moved to office competitive to cope but when that is out of the map pool, I will die.

    To be honest, the first time I played Iris I instantly fell in love with it. It has a parkour-y vibe, because there were many objects you could climb onto that you wouldn't be able to on any other map and there's also a spot on the map where you had to jump from one building to another to reach a site. And even that's not enough. The map was filled with hard jumps and boosts which gave you a good angle. It was overall a map with huge opportunities. I really like this approach to a CS:GO map because nowadays maps are just a big series of funless confined areas, whereas Iris was a bit more creative with its approach.

  • @far_above

    For me it's probably Austria, seems like a really well rounded and well designed map that I never got to play in Competitive since it's been out of the game for so long. Would also love to see Fastline from CS:CZ make a return in CS:GO because I like the theme and the unique layout and sites a lot, but admittedly it's very unlikely to ever come back.

It feels like it was labored with all the care in the world, and playing in it gives you a surprisingly atmospheric vibe. But I also want to say that I truly love the light you bring to aspects of the game which normally get overlooked and the analysis you provide. I genuinely cannot wait to see future videos you have in store.

    Thrill is probably my favorite older, out of rotation map - the theming is great, and although the gameplay wasn’t perfect or anything, I think the environment was crafted incredibly well!

    I have a soft spot for Cobblestone, even post-rework. I have barely played CS:GO in the past few years, but the memories I still have most fondly feature Cobblestone a lot. It's quite a weird and sprawling map compared to maps like Vertigo or Nuke (or really the maps in the competitive pool for that matter haha), but I found that made for really odd and hilarious plays to be made with that extra space and angles.

    honestly, Im really racking my brain to think of the last time i saw cs_italy in the ranked pool, has gotta be several years at this point, definitely a throwback classic i still enjoy whenever i see it in the casual map vote pool for hostage situation.

    My favorite map that's gone is definitely Aztec. Started playing on late 2015 and I remember being on that map a lot while on deathmatch. It really makes me nostalgic thinking about it, it reminds me of getting better at the basics of the game!

    My favourite map is cobblestone. I miss playing comps on it. Definitely one of the more interesting maps to watch as well.

    Even though it was only recently removed from the active map pool, I miss basalt quite a bit. In my opinion is was a fairly balanced map with interesting decoration. It worked well in both competitive game modes, wingman and casual too. Probably one of the more interesting and competitively viable maps that valve has added to the active map pool in recent times.

    Cobblestone was really the map that worked for me so well with the layout and also design, i love the castle vibe around it and i always liked playing on this map

    Insertion II. I got massive amounts of enjoyment from how bizarre and different it was. Playing with a 5 que was so much fun and I miss it.

    For me, cache is my favorite map because this was the first map I played on, since my friend introduced me to csgo. And today, I think its a solid map.

    Honestly, my favorite map is cobblestone by far, I had great memories on it with my friends, also the layout and the aesthetics of the map were phenomenal in my opinion.

    Fav map is old Cobble, I miss it so much man. I got my first ace on that map and I have so many memories of playing with my old 5 stack haha. Love the content brother, love from ohnepixel community

    There's so many maps that deserve a comeback! I've heard it mentioned a bunch, especially recently, but CS should really keep rotating maps more constantly.
    Cobble is obvious, but there's so many maps that could be incredible if they got the overpass treatment. I think this counts for so so many maps: Grind, Mocha, Subzero, Favela, Engage, Zoo, Coast, Apollo. I feel like at least half the maps that were featured in an operation had an interesting style and some fun gameplay elements that weren't given the chance to develop.
    I feel like rotating the map pool, especially when actively finding ways to improve them for their comeback whenever they're out of the pool, could make cs a lot more interesting. It'd hopefully result in a bit of a development/improvement cycle for maps, making it so that maps keep improving. It might also give more people the inspiration and motivation to actually give making a map a serious go when it's a very realistic possibility that your map gets picked up for a rotation.

    although I'd like old 1.6 maps be reintegrated into the pool (like tuscan), I think breach was a pretty fun map that could breathe some life into the game. might need some tweaking but the barebones are pretty good with some unique ideas like the site with the servers.

    assault is by far my favorite map of all of csgo. when i was a kid and first started playing csgo i loved the hostage maps and assault was so fun with the dynamic of the vent and the windows on the roof and the fact u could wallbang anything on the map almost. i would sit in a 40 min q everyday waiting to get an assault game and i still would do the same 100% years later. i would rather play vs ecl player on assault then vs bots on nuke. its just such a good map.

    Two of my favorite maps are probably mutiny and royal. Id love to see both of these added to the active map pool

    Glad to see the algorithm gods have picked up on your channel, keep on climbing!
    For maps I adored de_abbey , played it on mapcore and later grinded it when it was added officially, its still the map with my highest winrate at almost 80%. It worked, it was fluent and it looked great, like a village an hour away from de_inferno. I still miss it :(

  • @oscarpace371

    My favorite map that is missing is Engage. It reminds me a lot of Nuke, with the contrast of big and small areas. The T side lobby, which is huge and great for being anywhere you want for holding or rotating. The A site, which is also very large and has several great entrances and 2 different levels to hold or take the site from, it was really fun to play A. B, being the exact opposite of A, with its cramped feel and fewer entrances, and it makes it a lot easier to take with the right utility. And mid, being a long AWP range, with the team that wins mid getting to control the round. And also the aesthetic, with the big car holding place on A site, and the car frames moving through mid and by A, and the entrance to the factory or dealership at CT spawn, and also the B site and mid with the car blueprints and the offices, it really makes a great map. I wish they would add it back in so I could play with real people and not just bots.

  • @aids5775

    I would say mine and my friends favorite map is insertion 2. The amount of fun we had on that map is probably one of the highest. Camping in the coop store with sawed offs was fun.

  • @Carl_Jacksonn
    @Carl_Jacksonn ปีที่แล้ว

    The original dust was very weird. I really liked how wacky and unpredictable the matches were. Also on another note, the vip mode from Condition Zero was an interesting idea, though it failed cause it was too confusing and bots had no idea what to do. (Not sure if it came from Condition Zero or if it really was in it)

  • @14sindre

    Like most of the other people in the comment section, I have to give my thoughts to cobblestone! In my opinion it was or still is a really good map with great aesthetics!
    An idea to your next vis about cobblestone, talk about the history. All the insane and important plays that was made on the map by pro players!

  • @FunkeyMonkeyUR
    @FunkeyMonkeyUR ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I think my favourite map would have to be Insertion. Although not a competitively viable map by any means, I definitely hold some nostalgia for the period of CSGO where it was part of an operation. The idea of having such a large open map with multiple spawn points for Counter-Terrorists was very novel. Insertion took a lot of risks and I wish more maps would do the same.

    • @thatslegit
      @thatslegit ปีที่แล้ว

      same, too bad a had a potato at the time and not my zen 2 rig. And insertion really fixed one major problem about hostage mode which is the camp happy T's in both round phases, if the rescue areas were closer to run to, it wouldve out shine the defuse for a bit.

  • @atb1175

    Being fairly new to CS:GO of a few years. I got into CS just before they took away cobble. I basically knew nothing about CS maps other than having heard about dust. When I first started, cobble just felt nice to play in. It had interesting places to defend from like chicken coop/fountain to the wagon area. The whole castle layout was super cool too and having the drop area with the barrels was always an interesting area to fight at. It stood out more than any other map. Every part of it was fun to play in and is still fun to run around in queueing up some demo there.

  • @johnv6196

    I remember having tons of fun playing comps with friends on Milita. So that would have to be the map I miss the most, even though I did consider saying Cobble.

    Call me crazy, but Compound, i found that map's dynamic to be interesting and the hostages had an easy time navigating compared to most others of it's category.

  • @TapyCZ
    @TapyCZ ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Insertion 2 is in my oppinion one of the most fun maps i ever played. That doesn't mean it's a "GOOD" map. It's too big and the CT's have an insane advantage. Everyone knows Office is THE BEST MAP, but that wouldn't answer the question.
