turnbullTeRRoR June 13, 2014 Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni June 13, 2014 Well I got both de_canyon2 and de_dashtimargo_cc entered as of last monday. Lots of thanks to Marvin and GC as a whole for the time to play and test both maps! The Judges have started looking over the maps and one has been streaming and alot of the maps they just been glossing over. de_dashtimargo_cc got a pretty good look though. Around 10 mins of testing in his stream starting around the 55 min mark. http://www.twitch.tv/playcevo/b/537228362 Had mostly good things to say about it, but one of the things he downgraded the map for was rotate time but he didnt check the middle rotate which was faster than the main routes. He has two vids both running 3 hours but he hasn't gotten to de_canyon2 yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingCat June 16, 2014 Share walkingCat Member June 16, 2014 So there is no voting system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbullTeRRoR June 16, 2014 Author Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni June 16, 2014 the 10 should be announced tonight or tomorrow. Then a voting system of sorts will be announced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackieChan June 17, 2014 Share JackieChan GC Alumni June 17, 2014 http://www.twitch.tv/playcevo/b/537647141 at the 55:30 mark for Turnbull's map. Yeah, little annoyed that he didn't rotate through mid to B instead going from A to CT spawn to B...although I did agree with bombsite B vs A. A is definitely a more preferred site to take over B. Really nice job, Turnbull! I liked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbullTeRRoR June 17, 2014 Author Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni June 17, 2014 Ok the top 10's announced. Unfortunately I did not make the top ten. Now having said that I've requested and gotten a little bit of feed back from 3 sources (2 GB judges and 1 cevo judge) and despite the claims that competitive was the major focus it seems that for some of the judges looks were too much of a factor. All of the top 10 maps looking extremely nice but I can tell you that a couple of them have some terrible comp set ups. Having said that I've only played 5 of the top 10 maps. So not sure just how good the other 5 are. But like I said some mappers were rewarded for their maps looks and custom modeling but those maps did not merit comp consideration imo. Some voiced their fears before hand that many judges become to wowed with looks alone.(as mentioned by c0tton during his stream) Anyways, it was a great learning experience for me as I learn more about mapping all the time. I got to see first hand what the pros are looking for specifically in comp maps. ALSO I tired uploading 3 of these 10 to our server over the last 3-4 weeks but each were to large for the DL server.

turnbullTeRRoR June 17, 2014 Author Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni June 17, 2014 ooooo here we go guy is calling judges out.; Said that 3 of those maps were not with in the rules and that one was a remake of cpl_Fire making it not an original work * opens up pop corn bag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiMiT June 17, 2014 Share LiMiT Member June 17, 2014 Awesome job nonetheless. Would like to see the video of him looking at canyon. I wonder if anything will come of this guy calling out the judges on those other 3 maps. S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbullTeRRoR June 17, 2014 Author Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni June 17, 2014 been five or six post since his call out and another guy joined in with him. I made my little soapbox rant ( but I kept it nice) man I dled about 5-6 of these maps and play tested as I said before. 2 of them are flawed for comp play but they look awesome in appearance. I watched one of those maps get ripped pretty badly in the stream only to come out in the top 10 ( and while that was happening everyone in the chat was agreeing the map wasn't to good but there it sits.)

turnbullTeRRoR June 17, 2014 Author Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni June 17, 2014 You bee the judge........is this straight ripped off of fire ............. read the comments to. his defense is " I made it from scratch" http://csgo.gamebanana.com/maps/181211 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbullTeRRoR June 17, 2014 Author Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni June 17, 2014 ok consider the pot stirred I just posted : "Had I known we could have used an existing layout if we made it from scratch but with little differences I would have worked on and entered my version of de_torn that I am currently working on" lol all kindsa messed up. How could they miss that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onyxdragoon June 17, 2014 Share onyxdragoon Member June 17, 2014 Should have remade Dust2 and made it look like Aztec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbullTeRRoR June 17, 2014 Author Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni June 17, 2014 someone tried that but I think it still looked to much like dust2 this guys version of fire was an overhaul but that still doesn't dispell the fact that its not an original idea or owned by him for that matter. My comment up above was sarcasm just to stir that pot. I think cevo and GB really made themselves look stupid for allowing this to happen.

turnbullTeRRoR June 17, 2014 Author Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni June 17, 2014 Serial Mapper's de_island made the top 10 I love his maps but this one was actually one of my least favorite maps and the vibe I got from it during customs was so meh I've only ran it once. I'm sure its much more updated now but still. I hated the choke points and the swiss cheese mid de_aurelia de_alexandria de_sultan 1 and 2 de_rose de_amiaz de_orange ( we dont have this on the server) de_orient de_astramania may have missed some Further more CatFood's tulip ( which was to large of a DL) looks just as good as his maps de_reef de_snowcapped de_cheesefire but its layout wasn't exceptional. Nor was his contact points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neox June 20, 2014 Share Neox Member June 20, 2014 Yea, all those top maps definitely are some eye candy from what I see. If canyon was polished up to GO engine standards it would be sitting with the rest of them right now. Keep at it turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbullTeRRoR June 24, 2014 Author Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni June 24, 2014 ok respectively on the Game banna side which focused more on beauty and mapping from the feedback I've gathered from there canyon ranked 34th and Dash was 37th out of 71 I got better marks from cevo but no feed back from them. apparently no ones down for trying out sliding doors ( way better than rotating imo) or any swimming. I pretty much knew that going in but hey I had nothing to lose. I got to see my maps dissected by others and while it was nerve racking at first I actually came away from it all happy. One of the GB mods made me a video of each map showing me what they didnt like and what they did like about each map and it was alot more in depth as far as the mapping side went then c0ttons commentary and walk through on competitive layout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
