Steel (Updated Edition) - The future is now, old man!

"What happens when you get to do all the stuff you'd change in a map done in 2008 for 15 years... I guess this is what it would be?"

Welcome to Steel! Steel is a special, 5-point map where the final point is always open to be captured. You may notice that this map is, in fact, in the official game! Yes, this is true. However, not in the same form as this upload. "cp_steel_2024" is the brand-new version of Steel made by none other than Fishbus himself. There's a wide plethora of changes...

Hey, I just wanted to quickly give some feedback here.

1. You packed the menu photos, but not the intro text next to it.
2. The CP icons in the HUD are missing some details. This is something that has bothered me since the original version to be honest.
3. You forgot to add the intro movie, and this would be a good chance to redo it and fix some of the errors. Don't get me wrong, the original for a 2009 video was pretty well done, but the UI elements didn't have the effect applied and the color was a bit weird.

I add a zip with the intro text (and a custom version by myself) and the fixed icons.

Feedback from a big steel fan. Love most of the changes so far.

1. Would like to see the staircase on E's RED spawn become a bit wider.

2. Maybe RED could have a connector here to approach B from another angle.

3. I prefer the old connector between C and D, because the old tight corridor read as not being an gameplay space. It was just a passage way you take to get to D, while the new room looks like a destination in on itself, but functionally it's still just a connector.

4. In my experience D was rarely defended successfully, so, I'm not sure if BLU need all these new vantage points.
Come to think of it, steel was always BLU-sided in my experience.

5. So, I suggest a small health pack on D to help RED a bit.

6. This crate is too tall to jump onto it. Can be fixed by lowering it into the floor just a bit.
