desert_atrocity should be fun, but its one of those maps thats built for a large number of players, but as soon as you get more than 8v8 you’re getting shot from more angles then you can keep track of, especially with all the little hides that seem so popular for a few players on the WCU server. Players will probably develop a love/hate relationship with it, where point *edited*s will take to slow pace camp outs due to the inability to rush safely.
de_corse has a ridiculous file size for a pub server whos population relies heavily on drop-ins. It might not last long in rotation no matter how beautiful it looks.
de_strata, plays like a mad combination of Nuke and Dust2. ‘nough said.
de_russka, playabilitys okay… feels more like a 1.6 map though. A few too many open spaces, promotes big confrontations. Not sure why it was picked.
awp_subzero, not a perfect awp map, but it’s definately above and beyond awp_map. A worthy ‘replacement(?)’.
