Well, it's not brilliant, and it's got it's share of obvious problems.

However, it is massively better than anything else I've seen you post so far. And you said that you made this a year ago? What's going on there then?

I think I'll give this map three stars. It might actually be fun to play, and doesn't even look too bad.

That said, it could still be a LOT better.

Ghetto, why do you play CS at such a low resolution?
it looks like 640 x 480 to me..

Also, it looks fullbright from the screenshot, but i may be mistaken,

It could be 800x600.

Nah it's not fullbright. You think I'd rate a fullbright map 3 stars??

For the record

Some pro-players play on 640x480, they say it improves aiming.

it doesnt.

rofl

Penguinboy is right

Higher res makes aiming easier --- because you literally have more pixels to aim at.

For an aim map, this map has some good detail. Liked the textures, and the destroyed/abandoned theme you gave the building. Very nice job!

ah thanks.

i play at 800x600.
yeah this map is like 4 months or more older, i made it a long time, i was just going trough my old maps and saw this little aim one i thot woah this is a great idea and i thot i might upgrade it so here it is.

and Woah 4 stars. i should spend more time on d-tailing little aim maps than making big , booring , wide , spacious de_maps.

I don't mean to rain on your parade, but ip is obviously too easily impressed.

It's nowhere near being worth 4 stars.

lol but it is

Well, if you really think that this is worth 4 stars, then you are in a league below me as a mapper.

And, in the big picture, I suck. I have so much to learn, that I feel dizzy just comprehending the learning schedule.

The more you know -- the more you know you don't know.

well i think it's 3 stars but i cant vote and i didnt vote and the result is 4 stars im just happy

RESOLUTION IS PERSONAL PREFERENCE pros only use it because they got used to it due to the fact that some places may not have been able to handle constant 99fps on high res.

Yeah, it is preference. But not entirely.

It's a fact that if your PC has the power to run smoothly in a high resolution, then it will be easier to aim than it would be in a lower resolution. There are simply more pixels on the screen for your cursor to point at.

If your PC struggles at high res and you get low fps, the benefit is negated and you would be better off at a lower res where you get more fps.

But yeah, everyone's different, and personal preference (and what you're used to) plays a role. But it's not just preference, there is a scientific element to it as well.

well i think it's 3 stars but i cant vote and i didnt vote and the result is 4 stars im just happy

Yes, I realise that you didn't vote your own map - that's good. I wasn't meaning to have a go at you, sorry if it came across like that. To be fair, all my maps got rated higher than they deserve too, I think.

So, carry on.

Nothing big.
