The area surrounding the main power plant building ("Outside") has seen a number of alterations. The route from Rooftop to Silo has been streamlined to encourage Terrorists to take strategic ownership of the yard below. Once on top of Silo, Terrorists can choose to one-way drop onto the extended Catwalk. This provides the Terrorist team with a surprise route around the exterior of the plant building, with many advantageous views of Outside, eventually leading all the way to A site Rafters. A new route up the exterior of Locker Room to Catwalk gives Terrorists yet another way to sneak up on Counter-Terrorists. The entire Outside area features reconfigured cover spots that work to even the score between teams. Additionally, all player spawn points have been moved closer to the action.
