Are we losing what we first "showed off", and pointed out as something CS had "special"? Im fine with Valve getting involved, but this always was a community driven thing. Why do we need Valve to get into it? I understand that CS community might of changed, but we cannot put on Valve a responsability that they dont deserve to have.

If people dont get into faceit mapcore, and is just not interested in these maps, then what can u do about it? I see many times some mappers blaming the players for not playing the maps, and not asking themselves why this might be happening. There is a HUGE amount of maps, of community made maps.. and there can be an oversaturation.. + the CS:GO playerbase is what it is.
