All Games: de_lite, First ESEA Map Released

de_lite, First ESEA Map Released
After months of concepts and tweaks, we're proud to release the first public beta version of de_lite, a new CS 1.6 map created by Ted "cashed" McIlwain in conjunction with ESEA and a team of top pros from coL, EG, GG, SK, and more!

We're listening to the community's feedback on the map and we're hoping to have it integrated into ESEA League Season 4, which will start in August.

To see screen shots, download the map, or to leave your feedback check out http://www.esea.net/index.php?s=esports&d=comments&id=6981

Looks like a combination of De_dust2 and De_inferno.

It's a dust2 with 2 mids. Which I think is brilliant. I love the layout, but I don't like the way it looks. I was expecting a bit more from cashed look-wise. I haven't played it yet but will do shortly and give my input ^o^.. not like anyone cares. :DD

Let's see if this works out well.

That long connection to B (rushing all left sides as T) is the inferno's banana..
The ladder and that window looks like some strike/inferno/tuscan/fire places
A bombsite is perfect.. the B also remember's me cpl_fire..i think its 60/40 CT sided, B should be very hard to take

#27 de_cbble has been redone by Brute: De_Forge. de_prodigy redone? Hmmm... I loved that map when I used to pub it, worst map ever in terms of match-play. I'd love to bring that map up to par with todays competitive needs. On de_comrade_3rd_route, yuck.

comrade is sick, this map seems very T sided for me. CTs will have hard time accessing the window room as T's seem to beat them if they flat out rush the entrances for the window

#32 it's got a serious case of RANDOM HALLWAY SYNDROME.

de_lite sorta has the same feel, but more open.

very similar to inferno. Bomb sites are turned and flipped... horrible.

The map is okay... AWP spots are lacking and this is how you can describe the map. Empty space with a bunch of clutter in the next area, reminding most people of source. Conclusion : this map is bringing more people to source.

decent map with plenty of awp spots at B but id say A is just a bit awkward and you kinda get f*cked trying to hold the site alone, i think if they changed around A bit it would be a new replacement for mill

nice map keep em comin!
You Got Played By A Pro.

By looking at the map, I would say its decent but a little too many hallways.
From playing in ESEA pugs on this map (with a bunch of statwh0r3ss), there are just wayyyy too many hiding spots and useless corners. Its paradise for ESEA lurkers and campers.
