But yea no one plays hostage maps. You'll be lucky to find a game unless you're on a new account / low ELO. It's best to queue defuse maps always. | ||

I remember in the few CS tournaments I watched in 1.6 all I ever saw was like Dust 2, Train, Nuke and some other. Now when I tune in to a GO tournament, all I see is Dust 2, Train, Nuke (with some small changes)... One of the reasons why BW has kept such a fresh feeling is that new awesome maps have been released continuously throughout its lifetime. Why aren't we seeing new awesome maps for CS, in the same way? There are very good maps. The problem is just that people don't want them. Just put a nice new map on a ffa server & see all players leaving 80% of the time. ESL used to do a good job to provide new interesting maps, I don't play it at the moment but you should check . | ||

That being said, I don't disagree... we need new maps, that's just the least of my concerns as far as this game is concerned. Maps will come, and certainly not from the official developer (looking at you, blizzard) | ||

Has the Five-Seven any redeeming qualities? To me, it seems inferior to the P250 and even the f**king dual berettas. I have noticed that some weapons have less penalty for shooting while moving. Dual berettas, nova shotgun, and to a lesser extent the Mag7. On the flipside the Galil and Famas seem to have worse than average accuracy while moving(aside from the sniper rifles, obviously). I know it´s considered a bad habit to not stop while shooting, I still find it interesting that those weapons seemingly don´t penalize you for that. Gives some weapons interesting qualities. Anyone else notice something interesting about certain weapons? And more importantly, is there any redeeming quality to the five-seven? | ||

Anyone else notice something interesting about certain weapons? And more importantly, is there any redeeming quality to the five-seven? From what I've seen around the CS:GO reddit, and my brief uses of the Five-Seven in game, it is more movement based and there's a bit of a luck aspect to it. I think it's definitely overshadowed by the P250/Deagle, but I've seen good play from it. | ||

I think it's definitely overshadowed by the P250/Deagle, but I've seen good play from it. 5-7's got a bigger clip than the p250 (20 vs 13), but I think the recoil and damage is about the same. Also, I love the galil, sometimes I'll use it exclusively and won't even upgrade because its burst pattern is so similar to CS:S's AK burst pattern. The Famas on the other hand is all about impossible for me to use :T I'd rather just get an m4 with no armor, or save up. | ||

The two maps you mentioned are basically the same thing and they've been in the CS rotation for years. The only other map is mirage which is a remake of strike. Really, the map pool is extremely stale and the community has always been poorly receptive of new maps. It's sad. | ||
