Volcano releases de_cache for CS:GO

1-12-2012 09:36

Former 3D member Sal "Volcano" Garozzo has announced that he has release a version of de_cache for CS:GO.

de_cache was created in 2010 by Garozzo for CS:Source with competitive play in mind, and it became fairly popular in the North American scene, with the retired American player having made several tweaks to it based on feedback from the community.

When compared to its CS:S counterpart, the CS:GO version of de_cache features, in Garozzo's words, "improved aestethics, gameplay tweaks made for the competitive community and improved visleaf optimization."

The former 3D star, who visited Valve's headquarters in January to provide feedback on CS:GO, released in August his own modified version of de_nuke, called de_nuke_ve, which has replaced Valve's standard version in competitive tournaments.

It is believed that Garozzo will now begin to work on improved versions of de_inferno_se and de_train_se.

Below you can find some screenshots of de_cache's CS:GO version:

To download the map, head over to ESEA's website.

seems legit

2012-12-01 10:00

2012-12-01 10:39

true that :D

2012-12-01 12:46

Looking forward to Sals' version of train, hopefully 10x better than Valves.

2012-12-01 09:40

true, we need new maps in this game, playing everytime some maps is boring, soo :)

2012-12-01 14:35

It was only played in USA, so this should only be the case there...

2012-12-01 17:56

according to the pictures the map looks really nice and clean! have to download and test it before i can say more

2012-12-01 09:46

Valve should pay him large amounts of money for making their maps much better, then they should buy cache from him.

2012-12-01 09:47

great!!! we need more new maps!!

2012-12-01 09:52

Looks pretty nice.

2012-12-01 09:53

If valve would implement those maps in matchmaking and update their servers to 128 instead of 64 it will be played more aswell. As of this map... it looks nice!

2012-12-01 09:54

this map looks wide and clean and the layout also seems good could be a balance map in competitive play

2012-12-01 09:56

just downloaded the map, its pretty cool! i.imgur.com/2bBfh.jpg is this bug only for me?

Probably, try to restart comp and see if its still there.

2012-12-01 10:03

Looks good, nice job :)

2012-12-01 10:01

Had a quick run around, seems pretty playable and cool, i think it would be a fairly rush heavy / agressive map and favor agressive teams and not ones that like to play slow and work areas etc.

2012-12-01 10:10

Good. but I want de_tuscan

2012-12-01 10:19

Awesome!

2012-12-01 10:39

ffs stop with all that shit already... cs 1.6 = peak today - 50k ( curret 27k) cs go = peak today - 20k ( curret 10k ) just put this shit in the trash bin like you did with source, and get back our 1.6. enough with this bullshit, your game clearly isnt played as much as 1.6. if you continue supporting this crap, then theres nothing we can do for you, valve. keep losing money

U r sooo mad :D

2012-12-01 11:06

Valve get back to 1.6? they havnt touched 1.6 for years, its the tournaments you want to get back to 1.6, but they wont. If anything valve kept some sort of CS alive at tournament level by releasing this.

2012-12-01 11:19

Oh my god, another moron talking about daily peak. Oh god, why...

and why are we morons, since 1.6 fans and csgo fans can fight 24/7 for graphics, movement, recoil and stuff, why dont they just look at the facts ? the game sux bro, no1 plays it. valve fail

No.... train is probably the one that needs a new version, the only thing that really needs tweaking on inferno is probably banana. However, i'd rather play some different maps in competitive tournaments than the same ones over and over again.

Aye, new maps are always welcome if they're playable. Banana and A bombsite in general are in need for some tweaking imo

2012-12-01 14:27

Didnt say they were perfect, never have, never will. I'm saying that people should focus on creating new maps rather than redesigning current maps. And btw... they are completely different to Source maps, so please stfu.

No you stop bs'ing. They are completely different in small ways. If you played CSS or 1.6 you would know why..... certain boosts/flash boxes/angles/ledges/etc. Hell even Inferno changed around from A & B.

Im not cs:go fan, but this map looks like really nice and make me excited for play cs:go, okay let's give chace for this game :) but still big number of community is lost, some % because of computer not good for play it, some mad peoples who will never try/buy it, some peoples who hate's css before and they don't want to play something like css seriously at this moment it's not soo good feature for cs:go in my opinion, but i said at this moment! We will see after some time, but at this moment im more interested about LoL and i think many peoples change CS for dota/lol because they think there is nothing to do when 1.6 is dead

2012-12-01 12:03

now we need remake of inferno and train and also new maps like de_season_se, de_contra_se, de_prodigy_se, de_tuscan_se, de_cpl_mill_se ...

Really nice

2012-12-01 12:17

Looks cool, hope to see this become oficial.

2012-12-01 12:29

Why the fuck is he making some stupid maps ? Just make a train/inferno remake, that's what we need, not some stupid css map.

2012-12-01 12:47

dude, we dont need new maps atm, we need the ones that we already have to work... THEN you make new maps.

2012-12-01 13:22

Instead of improving classic maps like inferno,train and making tuscan and season competitive to have a better classic mappool...you create this shit.Amazing,it won't be played anywhere. Really...volcano valve signed you to improve the game and maps and the only thing you did after nuke (it can also be improved) is to make shit maps instead of improving the classic ones. After that,you can start working in New ones (ofc I think u re intelligent and valve made you to do this...otherwise its just senseless.

And i keep saying you that it won't be played in any event or anywhere. Let the time pass! ESEA put aztec or d1 so thats not a pretty good example since as far as i know they will quit that "stupid" maps from the mappool.

Yeah they are planning on replacing aztec and d1 with cache and season. So there is a possibility that cache will be played at the $50k lan finals. Cache isnt too bad, but i agree that wr definitely need new train and inferno! Just saying cache isnt all that baf

B.O.R.I.N.G. Always the same textures (or similar) and ambience. C'mon, change this! Where's the snow, night, summer etc ambiences? Maps with a big ramp, river, tunnel, holes, trees, whatever but the same! Change the game but I'm still tired of the same "platforms" (aka maps). A little tip: That's boring to new viewers too.

Who knows? Show me a cassino map and a night map could be awesome on the competitive scene. Not the darkness at all. Jungle (similar to Aztec w/ more Jungle ambience), beach (example: TR spawn on the sand, bomb A @ Hotel, bomb B @ Restaurant), destroyed city etc. Too many ways to make a good maps scheme. BUT... Seems that I'm a visionary or I'm completely wrong with my thoughts... Does anyone agree with this?
