Gonnas (Valve ERC) has written a long and informative article discussing the design-theories that make a Counter-Strike map good:"Being a realistic team based shooter, Counter-Strike maps have some differences from normal deathmatch maps. The biggest difference is in the types of scenarios commonly used. Obviously in a mod like CS, maps about space stations, alien planets, and the like don't really work. What you want is something that is feasible in real-life, and the best way to do this is to come up with a good story about what the Terrorists and Counter-Terrorists are trying to do, be it blow up a nuclear power plant, attack an Arab town, or take over an oilrig. Above all it must be believable without conflicting with gameplay."
