The screens are larger than the map :P

Read this

Then this

The map itself, looks promising, I can't wait to see it in action.

My only crit at this time is the flat plain the terrain has. Yeah, many city blocks have that look, but its just to easy to add some variety to maps in HL2.

If you have the frame rates to spare, add something.

The map looks like "overwatch" before the building was blown up

I say this to all maps that use building textures and do this thing I really really hate!

The windows are templates and should be 3D!
Don't just leave them so they have that horrible silver / black surface!

Nice map none the less!

I agree with habboi, I never noticed that before actually, but overwatch doesnt use window templates, like the ones you see in the picture on the back cover of the Half-Life 2 retail box. Overwatch doesn't even have recessed windows or doors, which i dis differently. If there are any problems that you have with dm_overwatch, please tell me so that i wont make the same mistake as the proffesionals did. I was told that my buildings look a little blocky as well. I found this picture of another map that did something that i thought would be a nice remedy to my problem: Between each floor of windows, he extended a section of concrete out giving it a better perspective on depth. It made the building stand out a WHOLE lot more, (something that Valve didnt do) And if I understand you correctly, your talking about the window templates/building detail, the prop_static models right? I could just recess the windows in a little bit. Another thing (and why im thankful for posting here) was that i had NEVER realized that i had the name incorectly spelled, and yes, it should be dm_closequarters, which i had done in the beginning, but after retyping it, just never occurred to me of the incorrection, Thank You! As far as whether or not the name is appropriate,...I believe the name is very appropriate, as far as the buildings go, there are plenty of tight spaces to be fighting somone in, and also where all the weapons are placed, and if all you notice about the map is the larger outside area, then you could take the name to be appropriate in the sence of irony...Thanks for the crit once again!
