>it's become impossible to make a single simplistic map for an existing shooter that your friends actually play Counter strike global offensive still has a level editor. Though yeah fewer games nowadays ship with the community servers and mod tools you need to have that kind of organic community. Guess its mostly a problem with the changing monetization strategies where you want to sell microtransaction cosmetics which probably couldn't compete if someone could get whatever goofy modded cosmetics people added to their servers.

Not only does it still have a level editor, it also shipped what was, in my opinion, the greatest user-made map[0] to exist within the last decade. [0]https://counterstrike.fandom.com/wiki/Zoo https://counterstrike.fandom.com/wiki/Zoo

  Looks like Valve removed it from their official build. Can you still download and privately play this map?
  - jimbob45 4y ago
    Yep! You just subscribe with the Steam workshop and load it up as a private game. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=389175812 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=38917...

One of the few that does. I think with Counter-Strike Global Offensive some of the better community maps get bundled up into events and... something gets sold I think? I don't think it's access to the map (because anyone can download the map) but I'm pretty sure players can pay for something.

  Far cry still ships with level editors. The one in. Far Cry instincts was incredibly cool, especially for the original xbox

    It definitely was! I remember toying around with it on my OG Xbox for many hours on end when I was much younger.
