Recently Valve (The company that develops CSGO) has announced that they were updating one of the maps in the game. The map they are changing is Dust II which is the most played map in the game. The map has stayed the same ever since I got the game almost three years ago. Now, they’ve decided to change the map completely. Dust II was a very popular map with very basic graphics and very easy to play with a simple layout. After the change, Valve has changed the graphics so the map will run slower on some computers but thankfully they didn’t change the layout.
Dust II was my most played map and probably for some other players too. When I heard that they were remaking the map I was kind of sad. At first, I was just thinking about all the good times I’d had on the map and how it will never look the same again. After a few days however, I realized that not only will all the good memories and looks will change, but also none of the previous smokes and flashes that were very useful will work on the new map. The smokes and flashes on Dust II were very important and greatly improved your chances of winning a match if you knew how to use them. Unfortunately now, I’ll have to spend time practicing and remembering new smokes and flashes on the map. I have looked at some photos of the new map and have noticed that although some parts haven’t changed much in terms of playability I have noticed some parts have. One of the parts was a tunnel that led to a key area of the map that was made thinner which means it will be harder to enter the area because enemies can just throw grenades into the tunnel and kill you.
I am not very happy at the moment about the new remake of the map and not many of my friends are either. I don’t like the graphics and it’s like learning how to play the game all over again. A few of my friends and I are planning to play only the old Dust II for a few days until the new remake is officially released into the game.
