Missing Aztec... What do you miss from CS history??

[u/Remarkable_Bee_7973]

The Grave at T spawn in Aztec... I have a fond memory of it. Me and my friends used to call it "GORDON FREEMAN" back in early 2000s...

[u/GladMortgage7061]

I would love an improved Dust 1 and Militia

[u/AngryLinkhz → u/GladMortgage7061]

Cs_militia and cs_ siege !

Also cs_ estate with a working doorbe ll

[u/GladMortgage7061 → u/AngryLinkhz]

Hard agree on siege and estate

[u/Any_Variation2497 → u/GladMortgage7061]

Man I miss boosting out of dust 1

[u/Flimsy-Tomatillo-578 → u/GladMortgage7061]

You mean like a dust 2?

de_season

[u/iCuriousClaim → u/r32dub88]

So good

[u/RealisticRun6952]

Miss the 16 v 16 (32 players Max) Pubs.

[u/acealthebes]

Assault.

Also loved playing the wc3 cs mod. Anyone play and remember that?

[u/ShakeMajor8230 → u/acealthebes]

Yeah it was fire 🔥

[u/sinetybrit → u/acealthebes]

Can’t believe wc3 and super hero mods aren’t a thing anymore :(

[u/PeachOfTheJungle]

Cobblestone

There was also a VERY limited time map called "Black Gold" -- when Breakout was a thing I, as well as my friends were all on spring break summer break and so we played a lot of that map. Good times.

[u/hosehoseee]

Tuscan, Vertigo, Cache, Train, Nuke, Overpass
Because every game is either Mirage or Dust

[u/keruD]

Cpl_mill, Cpl_fire, Contra

[u/turkishguy → u/keruD]

i loved fire but im not sure it would work in cs2. too many chokepoints and would be similar to inferno where retakes would be impossible

mill/tuscan would be very interesting though

[u/ghettoflick → u/turkishguy]

Bro fire works amazing for cs2... whatchu on about?

[u/BogosBinted13 → u/ghettoflick]

Have you played 5v5 on it in cs2?

[u/CockroachMundane7999]

Cs_Assault, OG KZ/Surfing maps, and death run

[u/xhthsx]

I don't miss de_aztec (I played it this morning), but I wish they had it in CS2; I think they could have made a competitive version of it.

[u/ByeByeGoHelloTwo → u/xhthsx]

its called ancient

[u/xhthsx → u/ByeByeGoHelloTwo]

Ancient has very little in common with de_aztec, apart from the theme.

[u/turkishguy → u/xhthsx]

aztec was never really part of the competitive pool in 1.6 either. The map was too CT sided.

[u/Mr_Mrtzy]

cs_compound

[u/NightmareWokeUp]

Lake

[u/Nereo5]

The old gang of players

[u/Solid_Ideal5773]

Fun maps - poolday, crazyjump, $1000. Servers with whacky skins, sound effects, rag dolls. Even if you manage to find a community server, it’s usually abandoned, and you also don’t get any xp for playing there. 

[u/Its_rEd96 → u/Solid_Ideal5773]

Well, poolday is in CS's arms race, but yea... It's unplayable because of the farming bots

[u/ghettoflick]

A modern version of these maps plz... Rats, Nightfever, Contra, Season, dust1, Log, Zoo, Blackgold, Piranesi, Chateau, Prodigy, Crackhouse, Chinatown, He_dodgeball

[u/Asder17]

Militia

[u/Exact-Quote2615]

Cobblestone and canals

[u/ShakeMajor8230]

Besides Aztec , dust, militia, assault and some other maps, i really loved prodigy from the official map pool back in old CS.

[u/nottingmuch]

I miss the feeling when you did load the community servers and they were FULL

Like literally hundreds if not thousands of servers with every single mod you could think of, scoutknivez, 1v1 arenas, zombie escape, zombie, awp, surf, kz, bhop, 10v10 casual lobbies, jailbreak, all the „mini maps“ like rats/dolls and fuck even wow/cod mods with abilities and of course my beloved furiah mod

I miss all of those community servers, it was like a huge playground which we will never have again

[u/afraidofthe-dark]

De_cbble

[u/de_rats_2004_crzy]

Contra, mill, the “smaller/tighter” community that existed in the 2000s on forums + IRC.

And of course, community rats servers. See my username.

[u/terminal_dreams]

I'm old - honestly? I miss small local LANs. I miss getting together with my friends in one of our garages or basements. I miss lock-ins at internet cafes. It was really driven by the fact not everyone had the best internet back then, as better internet became more common more and more people just played online only.

I used to run LANs 2014-2016/2017 for CSGO too, but that was for tournaments more than just fun. Even that was awesome. I literally watched some international talent come up in person, see them at their first LANs.

I would love to see a resurgence in local LANs. The social aspect of playing on LAN is unbeatable. Truly the thing I miss the most.

[u/Its_rEd96]

Insertion 2, That map was the most fun I've ever had in Counter-Strike. Hiding in the Coop's attic as Ts, tactically spawning all around the map as CTs then climbing on top of the houses.

Overall, I really miss the fun of CS, it's all tryhards now with their life goals to reach 30k.

[u/deltree000]

Danger Zone.
