Nuke (de_nuke) is a Bomb Defusal map featured in Counter-Strike, Counter-Strike: Source, and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. The map takes place in a warehouse containing nuclear materials or a nuclear power plant. In Global Offensive, the original version of the map takes place a German nuclear power plant, while the revamped version takes place in an American one.
Unlike most Counter-Strike bomb defusal maps, the map revolves around a central structure rather than multiple lanes, with the two bombsites being overlapped on top of each other.
In Global Offensive, before the rehaul, many players had criticized the map for being too CT-sided. Due to the map's unusual structure, CTs have access to a wide array of defensive positions that are very difficult for Ts to reliably clear one by one, particularly in the 2 bombsites. As a result, the performance of Terrorists was influenced heavily by lucky enemy positions, weakening the skill-based gameplay.
Counter-Terrorists: Prevent Terrorists from bombing the nuclear reactor. The reactor can be targeted from above and below. Team members must defuse any bombs that threaten targeted areas.
Terrorists: The Terrorist carrying the C4 must destroy the nuclear missile.
Other Notes: There are 2 bomb targets in the mission.
Counter-Strike: Source
Counter-Terrorists: A silent alarm has been tripped by the guard shack at the MAC Nuclear Power Plant. We will enter from the back side of the plant and secure the area.
Terrorists: Our target is a recently decommissioned nuclear power plant that still contains spent fuel rods. Security is at an all time low since the plant's closure and the fuel rods are scheduled for removal next week. Plant the C4 in the fuel rod room, or the room directly above it to destroy the cooling pools and melt down the reactor.
Other Notes: There are 2 bomb targets in the mission.
