Okay so there has now been 2 threads on potential maps for the upcoming CGi/m/a and open season. Cluster has taken off by the looks of it, teams are scrimming it constantly and the feedback from people is really good. It looks as if this map will almost be a certainty to appear in the rotation. Castle on the other hand had potential, but just had too many bugs and problems... I was not able to get into contact with the map maker so it looks like we are going to have to give this one a miss.

The next map we will have a look at is a remake of the popular CS map Season. This map was made by Nick and nd. It has been reworked quite considerably to make it more suitable for Cod4.

Here's a few snaps of the map:













After scrimming it a few times already and running around playing HQ, it seems really really good. The map itself is made very well, the textures and design is very appealing on the eye. Its not a standard brown/cream coloured map like Strike/Backlot/Cluster. No problems or bugs have been found yet, as Nick has already thoroughly tested it many times with many people.

Game play wise.. It seems a little defence sided, but nothing to crazy. Solid strats and smokes for pushing into the bombsites will be a huge key to winning rounds on attack. SMG's will be strong in the alleys and hallways when pushing, while the AK's and scope will be effective in the mid section and for holding corridors, It seems really balanced for all guns.

I urge everyone to chuck this on their server just like they did with Cluster and give it a run for the next few days and post some feedback explaining why they think its good or bad.

Here's a link to the map. Some people are having trouble with Mirror #1, so just click on the other Mirror if you are.

Looks awesome.
Should be good to see what happens.

made by Nd and Nick**

if its anything like cs version, yes.

THAT LOOKS SICK I JIZZED

just from loving the map on source i say two thumbs up

not_viable

I don't like it personally

I'm still personally skeptical of it. Though maybe when I give it a try, it will be fine

(Just thinking about the boost at B catwalk, mass smoke mid, vents rotates with sound).

Played it once, it is a very confusing map.

***n tunnels and rooms everywhere.

Having said that, keen to learn something new. Cluster is still better than this IMO.

Millah with you effectively replacing sensuki, how many customs do you plan on adding to the rotation? Will You be adding 2 to fill the current gap so we have 7 maps or removing some and adding 4 maps?

Looking forward to playing on it!

Awesome map, the x5 guys played MEKA on it last night, and we all really enjoyed the play style and also the look of the map, its very cleanly made and we haven't noticed any bugs yet.
The map is about 5-10x better than cluster as it doesnt have as many massively open choke points, but still has a nice mid area for scope v scope battles. That being said it is definitely defence biased

100% keen playing this in competition in the upcoming season. (Punny )

Haven't played it on cod4 yet.
Cluster though... Scope is so OP on defence lol

It doesn't look exactly like it does on source, but it's still very good You'll be fine!

Personally I don't think season is viable.
