I may be going over old ground, but i'm newish to TCS. In the old day you could not cross the bridge as ct, until you here the bomb plant. Is this still the case? or now can a man sneak across and get to the double doors, if his team has called that a D-door rush is in progress.

With TCS we don't have boundaries.

But we still use them.


But i think a admin can tell this better then me ;)

If someone has called the bomb through the double doors then you are allowed to go across the bridge to get around behind them. No doubt some jobsworth will correct me, but the essential guide is;

You aren't restrained by boundaries, but don't take the pi$$.
Only follow up confirmed sitings.

Jobsworth here, reporting for duty. ;)

The 'dotted line' on each map now no longer exists under TCS.  You have your own crayola, you draw your own boundaries.  Is it  reasonable to go where you are thinking about going?  That's the question you need to ask yourself.  If in doubt, stick to the old limits.

As for the example of the bomb being called 'through double doors' (ie on the CT side) Benny is correct, yes it is reasonable to flank - but we keep a *very* careful eye on people who flank too quickly and they are appropriately reprimanded and given to Benny to play with for a while  :P

Going over the bridge will take longer than cutting through the CT bridge room side door. Using the side door and attacking from the covered balcony will mean you are engaging the enemy quicker and can cover the bomb site from across the water too.

Running across the bridge and through the doors would allow the T's time to get the bomb down if they were able before you arrived through the double doors.

The only plus point would be that you might get a couple of kills by shooting unsuspecting T's in the back.

If you were the sole surviving CT I think the double doors might be an option but otherwise I'd say there's no legitimate reason why a CT would cross the bridge unless the bomb was down and even then it would only waste time.

It's a legit question though and the above certainly isn't dMw policy, just my opinion.

I had this 1 on our server: I was T and saw a CT rush up bridge, he dropped of the bridge before the soundtrigger and then sat under neath the bridge in the corner at the T-side of the map. Allowed or not? It was a straight up rush.

Not in the spirit of TCS at all. An excuse for some easy kills. Again just my opinion.

Of course there are lots of permutations of this one. What about a CT defending the bridge room who hears a double doors rush. Running out onto the bridge and dropping down into the water and then up the ramp to defend bomb site A might be in order, although I'd argue the daft way you can fall 50ft into six inches of water and survive is a map flaw and therefore dodgy ay best.

You could go round and round with this one. I'd always say if your complying with the map objectives then you're on safe ground but if you're looking for a few sneaky kills then you're not.

The reason I ask, is that It is a valid and most effective match tactic. not for easy kills. (even though there the ones I like :ph34r: ). but they give the T's another side to defend. making the map more even. But If I'm not allowed  there, I wont do it :whistle: .

Flanking has to be backed up wth team play .....for me i will flank only when the bomb is down (planted or dropped) seems to work for me  :D

usually a double doors rush or peering in close to them gets some abuse from the other team. Guess who does that alot :whistle: Also i usually sweep everywhere when there is one left as he could be spawn camping so as tl says try to use the rules to see if your actions are valid. e.g. only sweep places when you know its holding up the game!

No you don't sweep you Guard the bomb sites if there is one left don't go frag hunting. And you certainly don't go to the t spawn, if anyone is spawn camping they will be warned.

If you don't know this by now i suggest you go read the rules again.
