Counter-Strike 2 players are demanding changes and many want an update to the competitive map pool, as they feel it is outdated. On Reddit, CS2 players are discussing the maps they would like to see return.
NEW HUGE CS2 MAP UPDATE (5 MAPS ADDED)
In an April 16 Reddit post, players addressed the state of CS2's map pool after redditor SyncingSLow posted an image of an updated Train map from the game's trailer. "Where is Train? I'm sick of the current map pool," they wrote, and while not everyone agrees that Train should return, they want Valve to shake things up.
"I don't hate the current map pool, but I miss Train so much. It's my second favorite map ever, it's so good," one player wrote. "I want it back too, but I think it's just nostalgia for me. Cache is something I really want to see, I was a demon on that map," another added. Players also said they'd like to see Cobblestone return to the map pool.
All three of these maps are nostalgic for a handful of good reasons. Train, Cache, and Cobblestone were part of CS:GO’s competitive map pool for years before being axed at the end of the last decade, except for Train, which was replaced in 2021. The CS2 community is often nostalgic about maps, and we’d be lying if we said we felt differently, especially since Train was announced in CS2 trailers last summer.
