I Updated My New CS:GO Map!

- Making a new Counter-Strike map is hard. We ran playtests to patch the layout and make some big changes. I've decided on a beachfront hacienda resort theme with bright pink, yellow, and orange colors, and made some temporary custom textures.
All feedback is appreciated! Thanks to everyone who helped out with testing and design. You can play the map if you want: steamcommunity.com/sharedfile...

sorry for the lack of videos recently, I've had a rough 2 weeks, but I am back to making videos now and feel motivated again
you good
You seemed very happy and excited in this video. Maybe creation is a sort of "break" you need.
I hope this actually becomes a map, i would like to help test it, if you need players just invite me.
take your time pal your mental health comes first
Its not an unforgivable mistakes
Just make more video then im fine :P
Just yesterday I thought "Why has WarOwl abandoned his map and never updated/textured it?"
Oh boy
Nice timing
@@alineandastickandagain885 yes
I was literally watching the past video 5 minutes before this upload since I kinda wished valorant had good maps and was thinking "it can't be that hard, warowl did one that worked great a few months ago"
I watched this one month ago and was just like you!
Check his streams he plays it a bit. Even the ones other people textured

i dont even play csgo and that was instantly my first thought.. just block op smoke angles
Couldnt you just throw it from a different angle?

@@TheWarOwl But I already binged all of those videos :(
Oh you haven't seen how interesting stair clipping is

My man really hit the nostalgia with that age of mythology music
True
♥️♥️♥️
13:20 there are lot's of fountains on the haciendas, (wall fountain perhaps) that you could put in there.
Or it could be like an altar/shrine, Old Haciendas always have something religious on it just so it's not just boxes everyweere
another idea i got to counter the kind of claustrophobic setting the map has is to make mid or somewhere else a little more open, put a fountain there and maybe some elevation like a second floor watching into that fountain area which is pretty common in capo owned mansions or haciendas, only problem is that there would be too much angles and it probably would take too much to add into the map which is already fully designed practically except for some details and angles

Does anyone else really love the textureless orange/gray-box design. It has a nice clean minimalist aesthetic to it. It also makes me feel like im in a battle arena that was created in the videogame's universe purely as a place to fight.
It gives me a lot of nostalgia for Counter Strike Source and Day of Defeat Source. I loved hopping on new servers not knowing what custom modes and maps to expect.
i thought that you were gonna say "what if i removed recoil" 11:15
HAHAHAH, this actually made me laugh, thanks!
For making the smoke mid less powerful:
-Remove that chunk of the wall on A so CTs can watch B entrance
-Severely raise the entrance to B site. I am not saying raise Cat, but like a thin T apartments entrance looking thing
-Add a box towards the back of the balcony/window area that the CT can solo boost on to. This will leave them more exposed to shots from mid, but they will be able to see over the smoke
Or just make the building taller xD
Hearing that perfect voice say "Ow"
I love WarOwl's voice
boner guaranteed 100% 👌
10:22 the subtle "yee" got me
This map design is very, very good, however a lot of the struggles you find seem to be with the cover. when I think of Dust2 or Mirage, most of the cover is in the shape of the walls, however most of your cover is made with objects, which are much more arbitrary than walls in context. The walls of the map should be guidelines, not only to mark where you can and cannot be, but also to show where you should hide if you've just taken a site, or what angles you can hold while defending a site. Enclosed spaces also make for boring combat, because there's less space for cover; most of Cobblestone is made up of enclosed space, only really opening up in the sites and T spawn, which are CT sided, and so the T's get pushed to their spawn, where they have to watch three angles, while the CT's know their positions, because they can only hide in the same few spaces, behind objects and in enclosed spaces.
TL;DR Use objects only if you absolutely must, walls are much stronger sources of cover than objects. Small rooms also enforce boring combat.

WarOwl's third law of Counter-Strike: if a game supports custom maps, there *is* a Dust 2.
wait wha-
3:32 Ah yes, the classic hotdog roof. Love that addition.
I feel like adding cover and an incentive for the CTs to drop down from the mid window to hold mid would allow CTs to hold, or move the entrance to B site from mid be pushed up so A connector can hold it, and there is no one smoke to block off all angles
You mentioned getting rid of the second “patio” and putting the apc as a big form of cover. But I thought that area looked kind of like a stage for a band or a wedding. Could make those boxes into speakers and maybe have some stuff fitting that theme as cover.
Yes
nice profile pic.
A piano maybe?
Awesome idea!
I also thought it looks like a stage of some sort
That "amigo" voice clip still makes me chuckle, that video was so fun.

@@muratdogan7240 soloq in dangerzone
Scared the shit out of me
this is like sitting back and him carrying you in a group project while you watch him come up with ideas
12:38 put an entrance from “jungle” to B main (from mid) and not directly to B site
To give like a Terrorist strategy someone be covering the entrance from mid (behind mid box for example)
I also think your idea would be a little op because is easier to CTs to rotate faster
(Edit): And not to change the CTs corridor from ct to jungle and do not quit the windows ( well the windows idk what to say but it’s the best thing in my opinion xd)
0:16 don't shoot me
OWL
Overwatch League?
So regarding your ideas:
The first suggestion would almost make a direct crossfire between 2 AWPs the mandatory strat, by having one AWP in the interior at B, and an AWP at the box on A. The other 3 players solely focus on making sure their 2 awps can stay in position to essentially lock out the map.
The second suggestion isn't that bad, although this might cause the B site to become to difficult to take by having such quick rotate times.
B is easy to attack right now, by adding a quick rotate it helps cancel that out, but it's not too OP as if you force the B rotate then you can take mid.
First suggestion is so OP. It's an overcorrection of easy mid control for terrorists by making CTs dominate mid.
I thought the same. Having that AWPer on A as well allows for a huge potential to shutdown any splits heading through mid as well as if someone isn't playing at window, a potential to frag out some Ts before they can enter site and alert enemies. I feel like that would make 3 A 2 B basically mandatory by default, so that 2 CTs can lookout for A connector and A main while the 2 B can just play out B site as needed.
The second suggestion I concur with, but seeing as it's so easy to rush up mid with just one smoke it'd be nice to be able to rotate fast on CT side. The downside to adding that door though is the fact that Ts can also swarm mid balcony or watch for the rotate from mid or T spawn, so you'd have to make sure there would be some cover in front of the B side door so the CTs can hold an angle safely onto B site.
I agree on both points
@@nofilterneito I get what you mean, but if point A isn't changed but point B is, you can safely hold A with 2, and put 3 on B with one using the new design of the mid area, effectively making the mid player an insanely quick rotate to B, and a quick rotate to A regardless. I feel like that would cause the mid player to not even want to challenge mid, making a large partian of the map dead with all CT activevity focussed on the sites, with a Mid player making sure T's don't exploit the newly created rotation/entry at mid, but not actually challenging mid.
imagine a man on the internet being the person you hear the words "give yourself permission to fail" from, instead of your own parents
Someone needs to do a Baroque Paris architecture theme, that would look just amazing
That’s actually a very interesting idea! I agree!

You know what would be cool? Custom T and CT player models.
Here's an idea, how about Terrorists have a look similar to the Zapatistas in Mexico. Zapatistas are an armed revolutionary group present in the southern areas of the country. They use an iconic uniform that (imo) fits CSGO quite well. Try searching "zapatista" on google for an idea on what I'm talking about.
Meanwhile, CT's can use a uniform similar to Mexican SpecOps. Again, try searching on google "Mexican Special Forces" to see what I mean.

But u cant do that right?
@@stressedbyamountainofbooks You can, if you're willing to pay a 3d artist.
@@stressedbyamountainofbooks as much as i want to do it, I lack the knowledge, time and skill to make those player models.

What I learned from this video: "Every map is dust_2, and dust_2 is every map."
I love those maps with the orange boxes. I used to play gun game heaps in source where there were mostly maps with just those orange textures, so much nostalgia.
10:37, The idea of a spot to drop weapons so that enemies cannot pick them up is interesting, however what if you could use an HE grenade to shoot the gun out of the hole? Just a quick idea I thought might've been fun to add
This is so good
I know this sounds dumb.. but why do you drop weapons so that enemy won't pick them? Why don't you just keep the weapon? What's the purpose of not giving enemy weapon while you yourself lose a weapon? I don't get it
@@azure8490 if you know you will die and you know the enemy could benifit from your weapon, you toss your weapon away so the enemy cannot get the upgrade your death would provide
@@azure8490 imagine your team mate had an awp,but u have one aswell, when he dies you put his awp in there so the enemie doesn't get it and keep your inicial awp with u
@@mumu9551 ah i see.. but you're then at a disadvantage of not using the main weapon to fight the enemy which might win the game (clucth maybe). Also if you know for sure you will die, that means the enemy already got a good weapon which means they won't pick yours anyway. I prefer not dropping it (cuz im a noob xd), but thanks now i get it
11:20 I would recommend if you're going to remove that chunk of the wall then you should make it to where the person on A site would have to stand on top of the boxes to see to mid B doors to add risk to holding that angle. Being able to cover an entrance for both sites while standing in cover on site A seems too strong.
As for the Balcony on A I would recommend giving it a little more line of site into mid A corridor. It would give the cubby in it more purpose.
And It seems the position on balcony in A would perhaps be too strong for post plan position. You would basaicly be able to hold two entrances very effective on the retake.
The angle you are talking about, what if you made that wall an arch way, so it's not completely gone but gives CT a visual still to mid
In terms of the colors and theme of the map, regarding that wall chunk at mid u wanted to remove, u can make the wall below the chunk flat and the upper part can be turn into a balcony so i doesn't look like u just removed a rectangle out of the wall and it would still look fitting and totally not odd! Good luck on the map, seems like its gonna take some work but i reckon both you and us will be proud of it!
the idea with middle balcony was so good. i was thinking about that when you adressed middles problems. good that you saw that too :)

There's a lot of things that he's doing correctly that's making the map progress the way it is. You can see that he's doing a ton of research before and during, alongside lots of testing. Personally, I find testing maps the most difficult, because having a community/people that are interested in play testing your map on continuous basis is a huge advantage to have. Not taking away anything from him here, but in reality that's why it's turning out the way it has.
I love you! You showed me the beautiful world of CS and I've learned how horrible I am at it

Ideas for the map. (I'll give you multiple ones so you can choose or come up with a better one)
B site:
1. The passage towards T Spawn can be elevated like Aps
2. Give the passage really angular stairs so that it is more expensive to take and it becomes less likely to be rushed.
3. Adjust the length of the passage so Terrorists can't exploit timings.
Mid:
1. Instead of creating B side aps, you can make mirage style A site stairs for going towards B. (that would also help with elevating B site as a whole) but make sure you make the platform towards the entrance long to make it more risky.
A site:
No matter how much you say the B site is broken, A sucks and is worse than B. it's super CT sided.
1. bring it slightly closer to T side.
2. reduce the amount of cover.
3. tilt the mid entrance to A so that the jungle player(like mirage) has a direct angle towards cat. this would work because B site entrance is elevated
Glad you're feeling well! I loved that "ow"

I'm sorry :( I'm not :)
Wow... I'm impressed how much progress the map has gone through. Keep it up Warowl
I want this to eventually become a map in the rotation. That’d be cool.
1) Why not putting some more of these "whoops your gun in gone" spots somewhere on the map, gives it some more character to eliminate guns from a round and the enemy not being able to safe them. It even makes smokes somehow more difficult if you would make them very slim under some of those half round gates in the wall (don't know how to call them properly :D )
2) The idea of a better rotation for the mid player should always be combined with a drop so that you can' t rotate the whole time around instead you need to get boosted up again by a mate. This would make fake plays by the Ts way more efficient and improve the trys.
3) Something like a fountain or the statue from cobble b spot always turn out nice in order go give some cover and possibilites to play with.
I don't like the fact that the spots are on the ground. A gun can accidentally drop there if someone dies next to it. They should be in a spot where the only way to lose the gun is by doing it deliberately like throwing it over the wall on Cache.
If you’re searching for that one person that will change your life, take a look into the mirror.
You could make the holes like sewer grates, so they only fall if thrown a certain way.
Its would also be cool to have a sewer section but that may just break the gameplay or become unnecessary.
You should do some more maps this was super fun to watch!
This was such an awesome video, really enjoyed it brother
10:15 made me laugh a little
I would love to see this map played by pros and listen to their thoughts and opinions
Man this looks awsome can't wait for trying out this pls update the textures. And i have a suggestion all those walls up to the ceiling makes the map a little bit claustrophobic pls fix that add some semi walls like in mirage or wired walls like in nuke to make it more fresh and appeiling
It’s looking great! And the little raised platforms look awesome but are a bit annoying. I think the hacienda theme will look really cool. Keep it up!
11:12 - dont remove it, just make window which will be less overpowered... i dont think its good idea to remove whole wall...
Maybe he could make the windows smaller, and make them lower so you can shoot only when crouching?
Yeah cause then you would just have a t hold that angle and wait for a ct to pop out there without any resistance. Gives t side mid control too easily
Agree, a breakout panel into b site would be cool though. Keep the pathing the same, just add an audible knockout to get into b site.
Finally, my favorite bearded man-child upload a video that doesn't involve Valorant 👏
ok
IKR?
Yes lol Valorant sucks
Lol
lmao why is every single youtuber/streamer advertising that Chinese malware.
I think the chuck you thought of removing to make it so you can see from A to mid is a very good idea and the design of the chunk should definitely be a nice balcony. There should also be some little details blocking the players' vision from A to mid.
12:03 the starcraft music kicks in, such a nostalgic feeling
I'm actually really invested in this map making series kinda deal, i don't know why.
It’s already a 10/10 map cause he has the Age of mythology music in the background
The ability to watch mid from A seems very Mirage connector-esque. I like it!
