3D_Mike<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## Introduction<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Hi 3D_Mike,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">My name is Michael, although I&#8217;ve gone by **Slade** in the Counter-Strike community for many years. I&#8217;m the founder of a Counter-Strike 1.6 community called **GSU (Gamers Stand United)**, and I&#8217;ve been playing Counter-Strike for a very long time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I&#8217;m currently working on a video about **de_survivor**, and since you were the person who created the map, I wanted to reach out and see if you&#8217;d be willing to share some of the story behind it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I&#8217;ve played de_survivor for many years, and it&#8217;s always been one of those maps that stood out to me. There are a lot of little details throughout it that make it feel like more than just a traditional Counter-Strike map, so I&#8217;ve always been curious about what went into creating it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I had a few questions I was hoping you might be able to answer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## 1. What originally gave you the idea for de_survivor?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Was there a particular place, movie, game, image, or real-world location that inspired the map?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I did a ton of custom maps at the time and really wanted to get a map of mine included in an official release, so I did some research on what was missing from official maps.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">And As_Tundra and Cs_office were the only snow-themed maps.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I also wanted to do outdoor badly because with 700 polygons on screen it\u2019s damn hard to do outdoor. \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## 2. What made you decide on a snowy setting?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">At the time, many Counter-Strike maps were centered around houses, warehouses, industrial areas, or more traditional environments. What appealed to you about creating a map built around snow and a more isolated wilderness setting?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">See above!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## 3. How did you approach designing the layout?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Did you start with the gameplay and build the environment around it, or did you have the environment in mind first and then figure out how players would move through it?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I always aim the choke points to be in open, hard-to-take-cover areas so you get fast shootouts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">If you start running from both spawn points, you will meet in the middle of the canyon or the middle of the field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">But tbh, I think the map was never balanced properly. I have many more custom maps with better gameplay.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I recommend cs_greenhouse or de_deadlock, or especially cs_bikini. That map has the best gameplay and it comes with a nice, sunny, feel-good vibe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## 4. Was creating a particular atmosphere important to you?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">The snow, isolated buildings, crashed airplane, vehicles, and open areas give de_survivor a very distinctive feeling. Was that something you were deliberately trying to create?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Yes, wanted to break the seriousness of it all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## 5. One thing I&#8217;ve always loved about de_survivor is the humor hidden throughout the map.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">There&#8217;s the airplane marked **&#8221;Oops Air&#8221;** with the slogan **&#8221;No Guarantees,&#8221;** the **A-Team van**, and even the crate labeled **&#8221;The Only Crate In The Map!&#8221;**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Were these jokes and references planned from the beginning, or did you simply add things that amused you while you were working on the map?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Some were there from the beginning, some just grew naturally.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">We had a clan called **&#8221;OOPS&#8221;**, so that joke was there from the start.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">The one crate is a poke at other mappers relying on simple map layout.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## 6. Are there any details, references, or Easter eggs in de_survivor that you think players never really noticed?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I hope they did! \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Although some jokes were really in crowd, like the names of OOPS clan members on the boxes in the truck with inflatable LAN party friends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## 7. What was the actual development of de_survivor like?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Do you remember roughly how long you worked on it, what tools you were using, and whether the map went through any major changes before the version players eventually saw?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">2 months, I knew what I was going to do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">We had a lot of servers beta testing it, yes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## 8. How much playtesting went into the map?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Did playing it with other people lead to any changes or ideas that you hadn&#8217;t originally expected?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">No but tbh I already moved on to another custom map.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## 9. Do you remember what the reaction to de_survivor was when people first started playing it?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Was the response what you expected?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Mixed bag tbh.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">There were some unusual things in there players found annoying, like the breaking bridge. Although I made sure a player wouldn\u2019t die from falling down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I think a lot of people also missed things, like sound effects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I use a lot of sound effects to tell a story or influence gameplay.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">For instance, the eagle spots a player when he is in the canyon. Drop a grenade and voila.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## 10. When you look back at de_survivor today, is there anything about the map that you&#8217;re particularly proud of, or anything you wish you had done differently?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I\u2019d make it 1\/3 smaller.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## After all these years, what do you personally remember most about making de_survivor?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">That my ex wife and kid are featured on an insanely big Easter egg texture. \ud83d\ude09<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## Permission to Use the Interview<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">You certainly don&#8217;t have to answer every question. Even a few memories or stories would be greatly appreciated. I&#8217;m especially interested in hearing about the things that wouldn&#8217;t necessarily be found in old documentation or interviews, just the personal story of how the map came together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">If you&#8217;re comfortable with it, I&#8217;d also like to include some of your answers in the video and make sure you&#8217;re properly credited as the original creator.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">ofc man, face fun with it!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">## Closing<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">I&#8217;ve been playing Counter-Strike for many years, and it&#8217;s pretty fascinating to be able to go back and learn more about the people who actually created the maps that so many of us spent countless hours playing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Thank you for your time, and more importantly, thank you for creating de_survivor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Best regards,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**Slade**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**3D_Mike:**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Thanks to you too!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Comic Sans MS, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">**Mike**<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; # de_survivor \u2014 Q&amp;A with 3D_Mike ## Introduction Hi 3D_Mike, My name is Michael, although I&#8217;ve gone by **Slade** in the Counter-Strike community for many years.
