What are some of the most beautiful maps created on Source SDK that you can think of? I'm pretty fond of the maps that have been created for "The Ship", I think many of them are very well detailed.
Another favorite of mine, but never released were the maps that were being created for "The Crossing" by Arkane Studios.

Counter Strike Global Offensive (a lot of it is the improved lighting I feel though):

Man I was really looking forward to that game when it was announced.
de_forest: Although some of the custom foliage is pretty low quality, I have yet to see another map that pulls off the lush forest environment as well as this map.

Perfect for a slender map.
Blade Symphony without a doubt, some of the best work I've ever seen in Source.
And who could forget?

Every version of rp_hometown not because of any detailed brushes but the nostalgic feel I receive from it.

Did anyone ever port that map to TTT or L4D2? I swear I played a version of that in both at some point.

Didn't the mapper give up on that?

Unfortunately.

No...
We got overwhelmed and soon AntimonyCat got banned and we brought it into his thread and he "left".
He still lurks around the forum though.

I agree, NeoTokyo has really nice maps. Shame the game is deserted though, so the only purpose for the maps I can see is to put them into Gmod
A lot of the maps feel cramped too. They look good but don't necessarily play all that well.

I simply cant believe this died.
de_wanda is pretty amazing. Has this nice Mediterranean feeling.

It's also got a museum with a full-sized Colossus from "Shadow of the Colossus" fighting a Tripod.

Oh man, I've been waiting for a thread like this for months.
I've been collecting maps from all over the internet for their beauty, and I currently have over 300 of them. What should I do, post them all at once?
Also, all of the above are in it, except 2.
To be honest, a game i like is project reality, Not because of the dated textures but the nostalgia of the game, Makes you feel immersed, Then in realistic properties would be arma 3.
That forest made by Hellstenen was awesome:

Also that viking environment above is fecking amazing. I really wish I had the patience to learn how to map...
