Counter-Strike Beta 7.0/7.1 - as_highrise

Here's the start of my Counter-Strike Beta 7.0/7.1 series. This'll be the last Counter-Strike beta series I'm doing, so we're almost done. We're starting off with as_highrise.

To me, the inside area is fair for the VIP, as there's plenty of ways for them to get to the roof. However, the problem is that the roof area is pretty much heaven for T snipers, as there's plenty of places to hide. It was probably removed because of how biased the roof area was towards the Terrorists.

THis map is pretty cool. To stop T snipers theres buying smokes and flashes. At least they can stop camping bots.
However, there was a planned update that never came out, called as_highrise2

I remember this map!!! When i was 4-5 years old :((( finally i found it

I loved this map so much. It's really unfortunate that my friend got so much hate message from players saying this map sucked and what not back then. I hope that didn't stop him from becoming a game dev/map designer though!

well, I got to play a bit of this as CT and yeah, the roof is hell -- you really need to coordinate the entire team to accompany and cover the VIP or it's hopeless

i am trying to start a counter-strike beta community... we have dozens of players playing, but the community is still very small. would you be interested in playing some cs beta 6.1 for old times?

[felix.l]

Was highrise from MW2 inspired by this highrise?

I play this map on Condition Zero and I think it's really great.

I thought this map was a mod for 1.6. Very nice
