Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has been in the news so often for the wrong reasons, it’s nice when some news comes out that reminds us that it’s still a game with an active (and mostly behaving!) community of players.

Now some datamining by KordGamer on Reddit suggests that the game might be about to get its eighth operation event, and we could even know which maps it’ll be taking place on. Using a Flash decomplier KordGamer managed to locate an image from the game’s files. It’s similar to the ones used in the game to illustrate the maps in each playlist, but doesn’t match any of the current ones as well as having the title “mapgroup-op08” – which it a big hint towards this eighth operation event coming.

Although the eight fragments are hard to make out which maps they are, someone’s already identified seven of them as de_thrill, cs_agency, de_shipped, de_lite, de_blackgold, de_austria, and cs_insertion. A Steam community thread tracking clues to the eighth Operation suggests that cs_concert might also be among the new maps, although it’s not for certain yet though.

The first operation event was Operation Payback in April 2013, and since then there’s been many more. The reason the community looks forward to them so much is that operations are events that feature and make use of some of the most popular user-created content for the game found on the Steam Workshop. The last one wrapped in July of last year, so it’s about time for another. Participation in these events is paid, with some of the proceeds going back to the creators of community content.
