Vita Nova is proud to announce that it has signed 
Daniel "Invine" Deen to finish the competitive COD4 map mp_dahman. Originally this map was designed by Bo "Kleineman" Kleinhesselink in December 2009 as he tried to fulfill the growing need for a new competitive map. The map was extensively beta tested by the tek9 community in the first two months of 2010 and received good ratings from the audience. After beta testing was done the map was left untouched for a while but now it is time to complete it and come to a final version. Daniel "Invine" Deen will take care of the texture/detail part now that Kleineman's job of thinking of and making the layout of the map is done. A fully functional beta will be released the 30th of May 2010 and the final version is expected to be released the 13th of June 2010.

Statement Adam "Vanner" Vanner (Community manager of Vita Nova) "I'm proud to announce that Invine has signed a contract with Vita Nova to ensure mp_dahman will be completed and become a new competitive map for Call of Duty 4. For a long time the community has been crying out for a new map to spice things up and after 6 months of work by Kleineman and his million beta testers Invine will finish the map in time for the summer. I would like to take this opportunity to wish Invine the best of luck and I hope the community can support Invine in his quest to make a fantastic competitive map"
Statement Daniel "Invine" Deen (map designer) "After spending a lot of time working on my own maps without any real success I am proud to continue the work that Kleineman has started with his map mp_dahman. With the contract that I have signed with Vita Nova I now have the motivation and creativity to continue working on the map and make it a great map so it can be used not only this upcoming summer but also beyond. Now I can do what I do best!".

Wat competitions will it be used in? i guess the ED VN ones, but will you try and get it into ESL?
Also, with vanner running a cod4 lan in the UK, and vita nova helping supervise and create the rule sets for a lot of eu lans, I think its safe to say it will get played once it has been completed.

anyway, might be good with new map + vacant back :-) ...
this map +1 more
= win
why remove cross wtf :/
And tbh there's too few maps to remove cross or back
IT would be nice to see this map made official, I mean I hope it won't fail and after that maybe start thinking about another one, so we could have 7 maps.
but can't test the beta on server ?
gj once again vn!
But damn lubos comments always makes me smile =)
(Carentan, dville, harbor, neuville, railyard, depot, brecourt + germantown, neunen, container etc)
Basically what i'm saying is that cod4 desperatly needs new maps, keep up the good work!

Sucks that the cod4 community seems to be that of a spoiled one. In games that I've played in the past, custom mapping was done on the basis of passion for the game and wanting to help other. No money ever changed hands.
That's like 12 and a half weeks of working if it's being worked on during typical office hours?! I've seen mappers take 3 months to map in other games but it was mainly due to them only working on a couple of hours a day at the most.
Admitedly, I know very little about custom mapping at all, let alone in cod4, but wouldn't it be easier just to improve on what already exists?
+fps map :D
And as a few have just, just add to the map list dont take one out !! :D
Replace with this and 1 other
Crossfire is a good map but we need to remove the shit maps first

Wannabe: "I hate crossfire, we should remove it"
The rest: "No"
