blahhh | Weird Maps

Hooo Wahhhh, Today we’re looking at well-known Counter Strike map! (Now you can stop asking me about it). Bit of a mild jumpscare and strobe lighting warning for this one. Nothing too spooky but if you don’t like creepy babies flying past you, maybe skip this one.

I love the experimentation and downright weirdness of these old early-mid 00's Source/GoldSrc maps.

[@eltiolavara9]

[@goldbullet50]

There should be an entire game based around maps and aesthetic like this. Like no joking around, not with any of the modern gimmicks. Just pure old GoldSrc. Some sort of a psychedelic adventure RPG.

[@eltiolavara9]

[@MrCalhoun556]

28:48 "Faith No More - Midlife Crisis". I listened to enough Mike Patton in my life to recognize it again.

[@mothbrained]

incase anyone was curious, the sound effect from the pudding area, ("how can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?!?!"), is from Pink Floyd's song Another Brick in The Wall. it plays at the end of the song as its fading out, and its why you can hear a loud drum right in the middle of the sound effect.

[@Gibusnipu]

Makes sense as Us and Them is playing on loop in the art gallery

[@thelastvicar1651]

Abstract and nonsensical Source/Gold Source maps have always interest me. Seeing you cover one of Nipper's more nonsensical maps was expected, but still a treat to see. Personally enjoy when these kinds of maps have some kind of music or sound for each room, it gives them even more of a personality which is helped with the Abstract nature. Personally out of Nipper's abstract maps I enjoy zuhhh the most as while it don't have any music for the most part, I enjoy lot of the room designs of that map. One particular "room" is a back lot of a hotel area with a pool, which with the starry sky box makes it like it's in the middle of space.

[@Avossk]

I love it when mappers make something that isn't concerned with gameplay and just start using the map as a canvas to do cool and wacky stuff, especially with how most modern shooters have maps that feel so safe and samey

[@dav786]

Nowadays with csgo and cs2 its all about CoMpEtItIvE

[@Zapidom]

The song from the third eye baby tunnel is "Come With Us" by "The Chemical Brothers", for anyone curious. Also, "Idioteque" by "Radiohead" plays in the red laser room.

[@biygas]

Us and Them plays in The Gallery/Garden as well

In case anyone is watching, The Drums are from the Faith No More song "Midlife Crisis" 3:45

[@APrimusHokie]

Such a good song 🤘

[@AlpacaEmperor]

Nipper was one of my favorite map makers as a kid, I'd love joining 1.6 custom map servers to find his maps on them.

[@PoutyBun]

Nipper's maps were a gateway for 14 year old me discovering tons of music that I like now up to this very day. Im so very thankful for the good tastes in music being passed down onto me, having spent considerable time meditating in these maps on gmod making stop motion videos. These maps were my childhood, and I deeply resonate with the creative mapping, interesting sights, and all the work it inspired and was inspired by. Thank you NIPPER, and thank you Whomobile!!

[@saltierdongs7760]

Fear of Pop, Faith No More, The Hives ooooooo

[@hellgodbabydamnno8978]

YES^ i LOVED the "Us and Them" room

[@Forcoy]

i was a bit upset the sky room song never transitioned into "any color you like" and instead just looped

[@itsukarine]

Have similar experience but with css bhop maps

[@pkcrossing89]

Same!

[@snakegum9288]

This map has clearly inspired other works, there's this map called gm_trippin that is similar in style. I'm glad to see that this crazy style of mapping is still remembered.

[@MIITRIN]

Using Icosa at the start fit these maps like a glove

[@Whomobile]

Reimu (they dude who told me about the hooo waaaa sound) did try and get in contact with Joel G via an acquaintance for me as well, sadly we didn't hear back in time but the guy he knew guess Joel dosn't know about blahhh. In turn, I asked Nipper about Ena and he's never seen any of the animations.

[@bounceysteve]

@@Whomobile damn

[@renosanceisdead7365]

you guys probably won't see this but i will always remember my experience with this map, it was like 2013 11pm at a summer night, i didn't have the best pc that time (it was and old crt family pc still windows xp iirc) so i was left with cs 1.6 as my go to fps game, downloaded a map pack that contained like 300 maps and blahhh was one of them, but i didn't get to played it because i mainly use that map pack to play different de_ maps but this one time when the map changed (the map cycles every 30 match iirc) it was changed into blahhh, i was so baked from my 12 year old mind staying up till 11pm and getting to play blahhh; the whole thing was an experience i was so fascinated by the whole aesthetic everything was so weird and my mind couldn't make sense of why a map like that would be in cs 1.6, got scared shitless when i went to the tunnels with the creepy babies and that baby that follows you too.

[@fredoku9878]

[@bigbyrd7755]

My old 1.6 community's Saturday night fun server event was 90% Nipper maps. 30 y/o boomer nostalgia wave incoming.

[@dylangloverable]

Do you remember what the map name was where both teams spawned on separate bases and could pilot planes and helicopters into each other? It was similar to woohoo cars but not the same, was my favorite map as a kid tho

[@ezas533]

Lmao yes air_fight2

[@indask8]

16:44 I think there's an extra steps to get to the secret room here, you need to let the "scary floating baby" or whatever is his name touch you in the area with the lights. You can hear it was triggered, but the sound was accelerated.

[@jamisunne]

that first Faith No More loop is great lol

[@georgesb3388]

I'm pretty certain the drum loop at 3:48 is "Midlife Crisis" by the band Faith No More. I felt pretty blueballed when Mike Patton didn't start dropping bars after the first couple loops.

[@arisaka233]

i absolutely love these series and the aesthetics of these wacky maps. thank you for covering them and for making high quality relaxing content.

[@LilPolemistisXL]

11:00 "come with us" by the chemical brothers (also used in the intro of wrc 2 extreme for the ps2)

[@chrisoboyo5470]

For anyone else who was losing their mind looking for it, the song in the creepy baby relativity room at 5:40 or 24:20 is Love in War by Outkast The grid room music at 7:50 is probably more recognizable but for those who still dont recognize it it's Idioteque by Radiohead

[@sh3ikel]

Excellent coverage of one of the greatest maps ever created for CS 1.6 and onwards. I was a player on NIPPER's server back in the early 00s and am deeply connected to his work. I recently made a video covering some of his maps and the spirit of mapping he inspired during those days. If you like this video look up: Counter-Strike's Greatest Level Designer: NIPPER Cheers!

Man this map freaked me out as a teenager 🤣, awesome map with some awesome music , thanks Nipper

YAY! The Nipper maps!! There’s so many Nipper and Dr Boo maps that I love so much, and I’m so happy you’ve gotten to one of my favs😁 (Edit: my fav of his maps has a submarine you can activate and go down into the ocean like an elevator..I think it’s zuhhh but I might be wrong)

[@kingnick6260]

Found your channel thru Krazzy. Blahhh (and other Nipper maps) was basically my summer 2007

[@tribal1752]

reminds me of the "places from your dreams" (aka dreams_and_nightmares) from gmod, the way how different odd rooms are connected to each other, varying in levels of 'weirdness'. would be pretty cool if you covered that map, but you would probably have to break it into parts, as the map is literally huge and would take around an hour or more to fully explore.

[@cundan0484]

That Van Gogh map is amazing...Nipper if you ever read this you are a super creative genious!! keep creating stuff my dude

Hi. Never played any kind of CS before, but I wanted to say the "Hoo-ah" at 4:40 is (likely) taken from the movie, "Scent of a Woman" starring Al Pacino. Edit: Oh I paused to type this before finishing the vid. :)

[@bubblemage]

This map makes me feel so nostalgic for other cs go maps, half life multiplayer maps... even if I never played this specific one. I miss that era

[@NoahGooder]

these are honestly my favorite kinds of maps because they make playing the game more entertaining to me since you can suck at the game and still have a secret room to find.

3:40 music loop is the drum loop at the start of the song Midlife Crisis by Faith No More

[@jayst]

I used to spend 90% of my time in CS:S on a prison map playing Guards vs Prisoners. Not sure if that map has been covered, but I always felt like the map was the epitome of great design by a non official. There were tons of secret rooms, many of which were not known of outside of veteran players.

[@PonderousEclectica4383]

i think the gold source version is best because the relative plainness of the rooms and the simplicity of gsource makes everything all the more surreal.

[@XanderNiles]

Nipper has released the most weird maps in the history of the Counter-Strike franchise. Played his maps for 1.6, Source and GO and all I can say is that guy is indeed a genius. Possibly the best mapper out there in terms of creativity.

[@luleta1644]

nipper was my favourite mapper. their maps were so weird and interesting that i actually looked them up to see more maps like it. that was the first time i learned a mappers name lol. ive always disliked counter strike's gameplay so i enjoyed just walking around the maps, nipper was a godsend on that quest.

[@AzzySunfire]

Notice how quickly he is looking away from that certain one picture and avoids having it on the screen like the plague.

[@Overcharged_Microwave]

[@InvalidVertex]

Glad to see one of Nipper's maps covered. The man's a legend and his stuff is massively inspirational to me and one of the main reasons I got into making my own abstract maps for Garry's Mod.

[@ChrisSucks]

nipper is really good at naming his maps

[@AsrielKekker]

I hate how little exposure these maps will ultimately get. I'm willing to go as far as to say that the tf2 community wouldn't be as big as it currently is were it not for these types of maps, despite being separate games. This particular style essentially shouted to everyone "hey we don't have to just make maps based on obscure European villages, we can go fucking bonkers!". It planted a seed that still effects mapmaking to this day, not to mention conne, who was greatly inspired by this map. You can see the same type of textures and map design in all of Connie's tf2 maps (including the gallery). His maps took the bore from all those shitty tf2 community maps.
