Mappers,

The CS:GO team is thinking about the next operation, and while there are already some nice maps in the workshop, we want to make sure you have time to submit or finish your current projects. This article covers what criteria we look for, and you can also check out the maps from previous operations for examples.

We’ll be selecting maps after November 9th, so make sure to have your work ready by then.

As you work toward the November 9th deadline, make sure to get your work in progress in front of some players. Playtest often, listen to feedback, and iterate on your work. Once maps are selected, we’ll contact those mappers and will provide additional feedback and suggestions for some final edits.

Good luck, and have fun!
