I was told that there was a grunt hidden outside of the Riptide map, so I went into forge to check it out. Sure enough, there is. Actually, I found two, but there may be more. They are some funky little guys. And they are little. About half the size of a normal grunt and a LOT happier. I also found the new Hazmat suit's helmet in a few areas. One helmet accompanies a glove in the sand and pressed against glass. You can see it from inside the map. Gives the illusion that someone died there.

I also located a old Assault Capture Plate. Possibly a left-over from testing.

While I was flying around, I noticed that there were some great opportunities to create some custom cinematics for YouTube/Machinima. So I took the time to save the map with a teleporter outside of it. Once I booted up the Custom game, I learned that there are invisible blockers that you don't experience in Forge. So I attempted to move the teleporter further out and re-save. Sadly, Forge is not letting me save more on this map. I don't know if it's a server issue or what. But Forging outside this map seems fruitless at this point. Which is sad because it has a lot pf potential as a Forge map. Since I couldn't re adjust the teleporter, I used the fly room I had, and saved some clips. I tried to add some buffer room on both ends of these clips so they can been looped, if needed. Some of them you'll have to adjust to use them though. Feel free to download and use them.

TAKE NOTE: There are at least seventeen 30 clips below. So the server may have issues loading them. Please be patient. I'll have them up on YouTube as one file in a day or so.

These two are practically the same. Except one has bubbles and the other doesn't. The 2nd one has movement, but it's very subtle. Figured I'll share it anyway.

The timing on this one is not great. But I believe there's just enough buffer room at the start for looping. http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/SEspider/video/14312002

I didn't plan this one, but couldn't pass it up. http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/SEspider/video/14312027

Just missing the fireworks! http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/SEspider/video/14312044

Or a whale. lol. http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/SEspider/video/14312062

You know what? It's a good thing I was sitting there drinking my tea. SUNDAY DRIVERS!

I couldn't resist getting another angle. http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/SEspider/video/14312118

And another one. http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/SEspider/video/14312145

This is possibly my favorite shot. http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/SEspider/video/14312159

Of course, I couldn't just leave the Grunts out of it. That just wouldn't be fair to them, now would it?

Well that's it for the videos. Here are some screenshots for ya as well.

Apparently, the map takes place on a Halo Ring.

And now some cinematic images
