Sniper rifles work pretty good on big maps (if you've got a good backup pistol), in my map (early picture - which really isn't too much further a long now), I like to sit on the big red metal shop or on a building (to the left of that screenshot) with a fire escape on it, and just snipe the expert-difficulty bots with a scout, when they have pistols...they usually win 16v1. That said, they work pretty well on dust.
Of course, you're not playing zombies right, if you've never tried the pump shotgun (if only you could pop off heads, RE style).
I quite like the Semi-Auto Terrorist Sniper Rifle. Or the AWP. FOr when you need to feel like your "hunting" zombies <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Just played for what I imagine was an hour or so on the abovementioned server. It was much more fun than playing just 1 human vs all zombies, the edited map was scarier, voicecomm was fun, and (perhaps un-)lucky forum members such as Venmoch and Sub Zer0 got the chance to hear me screaming like a little girl <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Yes, I remember that. "Don't even give them the dignity! Just keep running!"
Or there was the time when Venmoch decided he wanted to make things more interesting.
<As I'm following venmoch> Venmoch: (perhaps jokingly) "I say this time we should take the most complicated and long route possible!"
Me: <turns to Venmoch, then to the nearest doorway that would be such an alternate route> (not jokingly) "Why not!"
Venmoch: <starts holding down trigger>
Me: <turns back to face where I was originally heading, see several zombies, and start backpedaling>
At this point Venmoch and I somehow got split up, and he said something in the microphone about the short way to the buy zone. I responded with "I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you because I was too busy trying to save my own life"

Scary stuff. This is probably the best spot on zombie cobble, and its probably the only spot you can get to alone after buying weapons, as the 16 zombies are already there.
The guy in this screen killed me right after I took it. As you can see, I already killed a lor of them so the rest decided to hang out on the bottom right by the APC and wait for me to come down. I took out my Glock once to switch it to burst, and this guy charged up before I could get my shotgun out in time. Brilliant AI.
[edit] By the way, if you want to make it seem more zombie-ish without actually modding CS:S, you could get a bloody hands model to replace the knife and replace the knife hit sound with a meaty sound.
It's too bad more of the .vmf files didn't come with SDK. I'd love to see a dark rainy assault with the inside of the warehouse all well lit up with glowy lights and acting like a safehaven for the few terrorists who are trying to hold off the horde.
BTW, the pump shotgun is the best weapon.. followed closely by the P90. I don't like the SAW unless I'm alone, too easy. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

There is a very good Source version of cs_assault out, but it's unofficial and not many servers run it. I think it's called "zs_assault" or some such, as there was a Zeta somewhere in the author's name/clan.
