Hey guys. This is scary enough, please don't fight. Sent on Mobile

There's a hurricane that's expected to touch land an midnight tonight (EST) in Florida. It's expected that many counties will be losing power and massive amounts of flooding will occur. I may be offline for the next few days, if my county is hit by the storms.

I'd actually love to start working with hammer, and if you would work with me in that, that would be epic. However, you have to realize that I'm looking at these maps from the side of a player. And specifically with that dark room, I jumped in every corner, turned up the brightness on my monitor, everything. I spend just as long looking at this map as I did with jb_moonjail, even though the map is incredibly smaller. I just can see having fun on this map with the way the server is setup on SG. SG is all about rebelling and CTs maintaining control. Let's talk for a minute about stats and logical thinking. I've played with you, not many, but enough times to know you're quite intelligent. The highest Win/Loss ratio in favor of CT side of the maps in current rotation is jb_spy_vs_spy_beta7, with the CTs winning 31% of the rounds. Now, I would get 100 people to tell me how much they like this map and crunch the numbers there, but I don't have access to an easy sample size. However, I could tell you that not many players like the map. Jb_spy_vs_spy_beta7 and jb_greytown have many things in common. Limited amount of vents, few placed weapons outside of Armory, linear map design (Go here, do here, come back, go there, do there, come back). Players like maps where the Ts have options to rebel. Lots of options. Hence why Razer/Vipinthemix do so well. Even CT players like myself enjoy them more because they present a challenge. I looked through this map, and I failed to see the challenge. I invite you to purpose a counter-argument, in which we can both conversate and even... just maybe... bond.

I made a video of this map, keeping in mind @Goku 's post on my last video. This map, kinda blows. It's boring to look at, there's not many things to do, and there's a room 75% devoted to Hitler. The video I made can be found here: TL;DW: Bro the vid is literally 5 minutes, If you don't have 5 minutes, why are you on the forum.

You are the reason I put a TL;DW. XD I will be changing the way I do these in the future, sort of scripting them, and hopefully cutting them to 10 minutes or less.

As I have started doing something I love, I downloaded the map and had a look around it while recording. This map is absolutely MASSIVE. It has so much content and things to explore, even in it's beta stage, that my video alone is 45 minutes. I'm happy to say that the quality isn't barfy anymore and there aren't anymore frame skips as I had in my videos before. TL;DW: Great map, massive too many activities to count, boxes are annoying af, not many secrets yet - 9.3/10

As soon as I got my recording software ready, I got called into work. Hopefully, I'll be able to look at it tomorrow, if not when I get home. Side note: video shouldn't be as barfy to watch as I've done some work on improving the quality and the dropped frames

We could contact Valve, and ask about it.

Solved

My apologies, I had assumed you would be able to.

will it be effective on map change, or does the server need to restart? EDIT: probably needs restart, just switched map and it still doesnt work

@R3TROATTACK Work your miracles!

Yeah, I had just considered that, and that was partially in mind when I added the C4 properties part.

Or, we could implement a command that drops a player's knife upon typing it. !dropknife, knife thuds against ground. We would have to give the knife the same properties as the C4 explosive, so they cant get shot around.

Could we use a plugin that does a sort of trade system? !takeknife evol Evol then sees in chat: Enderspine wants to trade knives with you, type !takeknife accept to accept. !takeknife accept Knives swap. Confetti falls from the ceiling Then, at the beginning of the next round, everyone spawns with their own knives

This function was on the servers forever and a day ago, and was removed. If I recall correctly, everyone said Valve didn't like it. Recently, I was shown this webpage. http://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/server_guidelines/ The webpage contains this quote. Can we bring the !takeknife function back?

Hard to imagine someone with the name "Goku" to be a weeb hater.......

They are, and could possibly be for both. You can still be called out in in pb. Ex: Yoda just shot me in my ass, kill him! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The idea is that you aren't allowed to say anything about the models if it relates to the actual game ("that Tracer model is sexy af" - okay, "that Tracer slugged the Detective!" - not okay). The server that I first saw this rule, seemed to work out fine, even with no admins. However, most players had custom models, as they were A LOT easier to get on that server (in credit requirements). I suppose this was a rule done in confidence as nobody wanted to be called out for their skins, so they didn't do it to other people.

I'm not totally sure, but everyone and their damn grandma uses the Steve head and the Cosmonaut helmet and those make headshots with any pistol much much much harder.

*scam, lol side note: yall are too crazy about football. it's a dying sport

These would keep SG's Weebs happy, but these look like Gmod models, are you certain these are CSGO ported? ^^^ This. I used to be on a Gmod TTT server that didn't allow you to call out based on skin, hats, trails, etc. Perhaps we could implement this rule across all servers?

wait, you're saying that big black box actually has words on it if I wait long enough?

fakboi, you go find some

I downloaded the map, and took a look around at it. My reaction can be seen here: TL;DW: The map is structured poorly, there's no secrets anywhere, but there's good music everywhere in the map.
