@@RichterOvertime i thought this was a jojos reference but no its just his name and im a dumbass
Remember, always credit yourself when making a map so people will know who made it in 20 years
Yeah.
This kinda stuff really gets me thinking. Internet is weird. Digital storage is weird. On the one hand, everything you do and say here is recorded and could be there forever. On the other, someone made a famous map that's been popular for like a decade and we don't even know if it's one person or several. its whack
@@MenachemSchmuel Yeah, the internet is weird. Things either stay there forever, or eventually get lost while nobody cares, like a tree falling in the forest where nobody's there to hear it. And by the time we finally care about it it's too late by many years.
@@inendlesspain4724 true, a lot of the stuff made during the 90s and 2000s, even the masterpieces, are now lost forever.
Never !
We once on an orange tower server instead of fighting we started arguing about what kind of cheese is the best
Lol
Pepperjack supremacy
The answer is colby.
its cheese just cheese
Provolone aaaaaalllll the way
This map has to be an SCP. It causes silly behavior among everyone and the last time I played it a dude read out the whole bee movie script.
Ah get it because... cp.. sCP.
Not to mention its mysterious origin. No one knows who made the damn thing.
(mysterious origin aside) that just sounds like normal TF2.
Also the building looks like a face.

Yeah, cp_orange gets a lot of spinoffs, especially the one with 50 floors.

I remember when I was young, I attended a Christian daycare for the summer. I've had a few good memories like catching huge grasshoppers with buckets. I distincly remember in the media center that an older teenager was playing TF2 on the computer and bumped into a spy. This map reminds me of this memory for some reason. I don't even play the map.
I hope he doing good
that's a pretty cool memory, stranger!
When I was new to TF2, I don't remember a whole lot besides struggling to navigate the server browser and find matches I wanted to play. I finally found a server I latched onto, which was a 100 percent crits cp_orange server. That was the extent of my TF2 knowledge till meet your match introduced me to actual TF2 matches.
Old tf2 server browser days were the wild west
That is the only way I ever played tf2, orange and 100% crits
Was it Deck of Crits? Used to frequent that server as a teenager about a decade ago
@@RallyLancer95 I don't think so. That name doesnt sound familiar. If it helps, the version of orange I played most often had tunnels with frequent fisticuff only battles, and higher walls in certain places.
the server was called Wumbo, and the map you're talking about is cp_orange_z7, I put about 500/600 hours into that server and was kinda close with all the admins there lol
kinda wish scruffy (the owner of the server) kept it up to play every now and then though
I used to play this map all the time, haven't thought of it in years. Might have to dig up my old hard drive and download a bunch of the weird maps I used to play on in tf2
Love hearing stuff like this!
There's a EU server called something like P!MP MY SKILL filled with Orange variants and other odd maps like payload Simpson House and Toyfort. It used to be constantly full until Valve changed quickplay. Miss those times.
@@somedude927 had a few servers like that, though back in the day I remember there was a "Crazyhalo" server, but some drama killed it. Honesty fuzzy but it was around pyromania, looooong time ago lmao
@@TerryMeme The server still exists but it reaches like 3 people at most every day.
Little update on those maps, been trying to find em' but so far no luck. I do have a bunch of the .AIN files for them so I know they did exist at some point, but the .bsp(s) seem to be missing, which is sad cause I had some weird ones.
8:20 The "our hearts, our minds, and our downloads folders" got me LMFAO
20% of my playtime prolly was on this map. I just loved the people on these maps, usually mega mic spam, angry squeakers, and stoners just laughing at a friendly heavy.
Yes
Wow i checked ur video and worst mistake of my life
Honestly Woo does sound and act like the average TF2 player.
Hello Woo.
I don't think I ever saw a friendly on cp_orange back when I played it
I love how the aspect ratio is either 4:3 or a perfect square.
Same

- Marcus Michael Fenix
Haha perfect usage of the quote that Marcus says lol
Orange might as well be the 2fort of modded maps….That’s saying a lot considering all the 2fort variants.
I used to play this map and mostly the ones with 100% crits it was really fun.
Same, there was also server that allowed rocket jumps and sticky jumps without damage and with 100% crits. I spent days on that server. Was always on top of the board with around 150 kills like a pro no lifer.
Probably because crits don't have damage falloff so it was actually possible to kill someone. lol

I am so glad that you did a history video for this one. I used to play on a tf2 100% crit server that had this map playing 24/7. That was back in 2014-2017. It's a ghost server now, with no more than 10 players per month. Time flies way too damn fast.
Yeah, it's really sad. I'm glad you like the video!
this video came across my recommended, and as an avid cp_orange fan i OF COURSE had to click it. little did i know id see my tony hawk 1+2 custom park at the end!! AWESOME video, man! really great summary of the legacy of this old ass map. had no idea about the DOD stuff, thank you for making this!
Hey yeah I forgot to put a credit for that in the description! I'll get to that in a minute. I'm glad you saw the video and enjoyed it, thanks for the kind words man!
Did u play tf2 recently? Might've played with u in casual
@@lemaireisthebestever I play almost every day!
I need to play the tony hawk level so bad XD
X3 taught me how to conserve ammo and metal, and how to manage my health and how much health a rocket or sticky jump causes
She's a strange, cruel mother, but she has her ways
Solid vid, love the stuff
Thanks for your support and the early comment!
My earliest memory of tf2 was playing on orange and being backstabbed as an engineer
Whats funny to me is that over 8 years ago this was the first map that I had ever loaded into in tf2.
I downloaded the game and immediately got an invite from a guy that I had recently played through Portal 2's co-op campaign with and accepted it. At first I pick scout since its the first class anyone will see when they first load in, but I remember distinctly that I picked sniper afterwards because I kept getting killed by them and noticed that there were huge sight lines that I could use.
I never knew that such a strange map like this had any kind of history to it but its cool to think back to those older days and simpler times.
my memory on orange: Sniping the enemy heavy's over and over
[CP_Orange_Z-7] is the best version.
I will never forget the uncountable hours i spent on this map, thanks for the nostalgia trip B)
I need more of these videos. I’m getting hooked on these essay style videos.
Honestly I didn't know this wasn't originally a TF2 map. Very informative history video.
7:34 YES. That's exactly why I clicked on this video. 2015 when I was 5th grade playing this map with my class haha
I'm going to need to process the fact that my oldest CP Orange memories might be older than you.
@@RedShocktrooperRST How to be condescending 101.
@@areallyreallyreallyreallyr5876 no, more like the slow realization that I'm starting to reach the point where I can legitimately say I'm "getting old".
Great and interesting video man! I actually play DOD on that map sometimes. I think the simplest maps can be the best maps ever imo. The more complex it gets, the more it's not as fun to me anymore personally. I probably make some exceptions here and there, but usually I love the simple maps mostly.
Have a GREAT day, Richter!
Hey thanks for your kind words EDC! I definitely agree that simple maps are generally more fun. You have a great day as well!
That beginner friendly bit was spot on. Some of the earliest memories of TF2 I have was me sitting at the top of the tower as Pyro, just frantically shooting everything with my flamethrower next to a dispenser because I remembered one of my friends telling me about Spies.
cp_Orange was the first map I played on tf2 when I got it as a birthday present in like 2008.
I was given $20 for my birthday and begged my dad to take me to Walmart so I could get a game.
We went to the Walmart, looked through all the games I could get and settled on Team Fortress 2, when I saw that I wanted it so I could play it with my dad who is also an avid gamer.
So I bought the disk of it, rushed home to the family pc, and booted it up.
I loaded into the first server that had a decent amount of people and that was cp_Orange.
I played for 4 hours straight that day getting absolutely crushed by snipers but still having a blast.
I will never forget playing it, it was the peak of my childhood.
I remember being 12 when I would play this, and now I'm 25.
Damn...
One I always played on was orange_x3_ddr, from that Double Death Redux group or whatever.
Felt like an old guy looking at the Vietnam War Memorial looking for it's name seeing the list.
This video made me realize i always was playing in CP orange, everything was CP orange all along
@Caden Thompson always has been
I love how much details you put into your documentaries
Great video dude, hope it gets more views. Orange maps occupy most of my playtime in tf2. My most nostalgic moment while playing on them was a night in which the entire server was talking in the voicechat about tv shows from our childhoods. Before of that there was a guy which was hella drunk that night (actually a wonderful dude, I even “gifted” him a genuine hat a year later) ranting about obscure Argentine soda he saw on a kiosk (the server is located in Argentina btw) and later he tried to stablish the USSR 2 on the server while Russian music was playing in the background. What a fun night that was, the types you stay all night on the screen.
Just for these memories along I hold these types of maps that kindly on my heart
Now do a video on “History of CP”
ayo
Dude...
THAT MEANS SOMETHING ELSE
oh no
BROOO
As soon as I saw this video recommended, I knew it would be great. Surprising that almost noone else made a video about it before
Thank you so much for this video. Orange is such a small piece of history but it is so significant to my childhood. As a little kid I spent hours on a 100% crit, low gravity, Orange X7 server. Such good times.
I remember playing this map back when meet the pyro dropped. I bought some of the items from it and tried them out on whatever the current version was back then. I'm shocked I still remember that above all other maps.
i miss playing on this one orange server that had no crits (aside from backstabs and headshots) and no low grav. everyone was relatively chill on there and it was just fun to be on.
i miss the good old days
I've never heard of cp_orange until now, so thank you for this educational video of a map I never experienced until after watching this video
Used to play on No Heroes Orange server with my older brother back in 2011. Man the memories, great video.
this is gonna be one of those videos that blow up, very good.
I hope. Thanks for the support!
When I started playing TF2 this was the first map I have played on. I still played it with my younger brother on two old office laptops but we had the best time together.
We mostly played on the version with two extra towers for sniping and a boxing ring which was connected with a portal in the spawn room.
When I was in middle school and before I had even played tf2 I played a tf2 plugin Minecraft server. There was two-fort and a couple others but I distinctly remember this map in its Minecraft form. Was hilarious to later discover that there was an actual game associated with the minigame Minecraft server we were participating in.
The second I saw this video I subbed. I can already tell your channel is going to be one I love. Deep dive into niche subjects like this is what I eat up the most! Great stuff dude!
I'm glad to hear it! More content coming later this week.
Good one, great commentary btw
Thank you for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed it
This is a wonderful video. I miss early TF2.
man this brings back memories of summer days spent playing CP orange with friends
Hey! Great video! Nice to learn something new about this map, after so many hours of playing it. Had a nostalgia smile through whole video.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the video, thank you for the support!
Greatest memories are of the friends we made along the way
ok seriously, i played a ton of x10 orange, met alot of great people, it's a shame i stopped playing for some reason unknown to me or anybody because i have forgotten
I have fond memories of playing allcrit instarespawn on this map. Back then, the liberty launcher was absolutely broken for that gamemode lol.
You mean the shwicky shwag
@@marcushalberstam5327 Ask (scream) nicely for kritz
good video and research. the number of views is telling of how nostalgic this map is to so many people
Very cool video! I was entertained the whole way through.
I once saw a version of cp_orange that was a prop filled map with a castle/medieval themed.
degroot orange? cool idea
@@eat00002 it was a payload map. Might have been plr though...
@@Woodland_Adventures cool
Im most familiar with the four team version of Orange in a server i frequent in TF2C lol
Thanks for making this video! This right here is my childhood :')

@@RichterOvertime ok
Once dominated a server with gunslinger engi when two people are arguing about among us in the boackground
I remember playing the old dod_orange on dod: source 10+ years ago. I never put together that cp_orange was supposed to be a continuation of that, but it's also harder to notice these things while you experience it in the moment. What a time it was to live through all of this and make these memories
It wasn't the only community map I ever played in the good ol days, but orange_x3 was such a HUGE part of my childhood and overall TF2 experience. This video makes me wanna play it again, actually!
every time i join orange there's at least one kid screaming
that's the magic of it
The 4:3 ratio is so quaint
i saw this trade map that was a combination of the trade_plaza map and cp_orange, it even had a little minigame lounge under it that you could access at the middle of the map. it even was seasonal too. there was spring, summer, and winter versions. that’s one of my most favorite maps ever.
I like the way you narrate the video. So entertaining.
this video is giving me massive nostalgia vibes, mainly because of your aspect ratio that you decided to record it in
still a pretty good documentary tho
First time I played this map was in DOD:S. It was so nice seeing it when I started playing TF2 when it first came out. I think the most recent time I’ve played it was in Mordhau. I had no idea this map had such history and meant so much to so many. Thank you for this video.
x3 was the best, so many fun hours
thank you for the video
I LOVE how this is in the 4:3 aspect ratio, it really adds to the video!
I wonder how many hours of my teenagehood i spent on the same low gravity, crits only, randomizer Orange server.
Players that spawned with sniper rifles were annoying, but that only made it more satisfying when you managed to kill them.
Great memories, great game, and great video !
Yo, I played probably at least 100 hous on Orange, and that's only x3, x5 or x7. Camping at the top of the tower as engie with some fellow engineers, especially on the original map where there were no other health packs so your team had to protect their engies because they were important for health and ammo was so good.
Also I really fondly remember some of the spin off orange maps for their unique and interesting design! Some that modified the original map, like z7 as shown in the video, did so really damn well and made it a properly playable map! Some spin off maps had unqiue set ups with a lot of flank routes and other things. Man, that was fun.
Good video, thank you
I made so many friends playing Scout and Sniper on this map. I saw my first wild spycrab on this map. I played my first hours of Medic on this map, a class I’ve since sunk close to a thousand hours in. Man. I picked up TF2 in freshman year of college when I was struggling to be social and feeling homesick, playing late at night on a barely-working laptop. This map is probably where the seed of my love for the game was planted. Thanks for reminding me how much those memories meant.
A 4:3 video in 2021?
*AMAZING*
Way better than that dumb ultra thin aspect ratio of new phones.
Subbed.
Underrated youtuber. Thank you yt reccocmended for this gem.
I love that you use a 4:3 aspect ratio. It makes your videos stand out
Around 2008-2011 this map was where I spent 99% of my gaming time. Thanks for making this video 🙏
I was literally thinking of this map like 2 days ago but couldn’t figure out why and where and BOOM pops on my recommended list on UA-cam. Mind=Blown
Ahh this brings me back. I played nothing but CP_orange cause I had a crappy office laptop back in 2009, I could get a rocky road smooth 30fps while I hunched over that tiny thing. Good times.
i really like the 4:3 aspect ratio for a historical video about an old map like this
I had no idea about anything related to the map or name but still really entertaining
Great video! Also you earned a new subscriber.
orange and the spinoff Purple maps were some of my favorite maps when I was younger playing TF2, it was a blast to just mess around endlessly
This brings me back to the golden days where I worked on cp_orange_z7 and my now retired TF2 server.
Shout-out to my old community members (DerpyGamers) and the great memories I was able to provide for you guys!
And thanks for making this video and touching base on my version. It was designed mainly on community feedback and a good amount of my player base were competitive players.
First tf2 gameplay i ever saw was around 2011 and it was on this map with crash twinsanity music in the background. It holds a special place in my heart lol
CP_Orange is my most of my childhood, First time i booted TF2 up was back in 08 when my brother introduced me to it, he told me to go online and find a CP_Orange server because it was easy to learn the basics of the game on that type of server and since then ive been in love with the game and the map. Now in 2021 i dont play tf2 anymore since ive grown and dont really have the time anymore to play videogames but CP_Orange will forever be in my heart.
That map was my TF2 childhood and taught me a life lesson about X100 randomizers
I have literally never played on cp_orange proper, but i distinctly remember spending time in a TF2 in Minecraft server years ago, which had a cp_orange recreation. Crazy stuff
Great video! Really enjoyed it, you should make a history video about trade_plaza.
Great video! I subbed.
As for me, the orange map was "cp_orange_x3_exe".
It has mostly fixes for respawn problems: now you can crouchjump into respawn, it has team barriers and respawn class-change mesh fixed. Also the ledges in front of tower are symmetrical, and a bunch of medkits/ammo thrown around.
Exe name stands for a small russian clan "ExE" I happened to get in, and even moderated their orange server for a bit. Ahh, good old times.
Bro... Very nice video, you have my subscription :D
I remember this map for exactly two reasons: It was the first map I experienced 100x TF2 on, and it was the map I accidently earned the "Shoot the Breeze" achievement.
Tony hawk joke made me laugh
i love it since one of the first experiences on this map for me was dropping from the tower and backstabbing a pyro
CP_Orange is where I learned how to explosive jump to get back into spawn and also to spawn camp, where I learned how fun x10 and 100% crits plug ins could be, where I practiced 1v1 fights and team fights, and where I got my taste of funny and unpolished TF2 so then I could go on the official servers to play more seriously, or even comp servers to try hard.
I remmeber going through a phase back in 2014 or so where id look for cp orange maps but with added routes and such, finding really cool cp orange maps with more towers, tunnels, full on border, different spawn, everything, it was such an amazing thing to experience considering how many servers there used to be
I actually favorited a z7 orange server. Its so fun. I remember the players trying goofy strategies like flying shotgun soldier, mad milk pyro shark, and even someone tryingvthe guillotine wrap assassin combo.
It feels kind of scuffed without bgm. Great video neverthenless!
