    A newer version of this map is now available! Map has been made wider by 23% along with other changes!
    Link to new map


    Some believe this is the sister station to the polar Lockout facility. These isolated research labs were once used to study the Flood, but few clues remain amidst the remains.



    Important Notes:
    -This is a small map, similar in size and gameplay to Guardian(H3) or Lockout(H2).
    -I would love to get feedback so that it can be improved upon. To give feedback, post on this forum on on the file itself on Bungie.net


    Weapons list:
    -DMR x 4
    -Assault Rifle x 2
    -Pistol x 1
    -Plasma Pistol x 2
    -Needle Rifle x 1
    -Gravity Hammer x 1
    -Sniper x 1
    -Shotgun x 1
    -Grenade Launcher x 1
    -Machine Gun Turret x 2
    -Grenades

    This is a small, detailed, multi tiered and symmetrical map. Perfect for FFA battles and team slayer. Let me know how you like it or if there is anything I can improve upon.

    Update: new link to download, modified the spawn times on most weapons.

    I really like it, the small compact space, fairly remniscent of Lockout. The small aesthetics also give it a really good feel, but the name is unfitting and an obvious take on the Villain from TRON: Legacy.

    I really like this map because as Splatter mentioned above it is reminiscent of one of my favorite maps: Lockout. It is also very cleanly forge but i have a couple questions.
    1: Does it have any Frame Rate issues?
    2: Isn't 10players for this a tad much?
    3: Why the turrets?
    That last question is just because im curious XD. But yea looks good other wise.

    I definitely drew a lot of inspiration from Lockout, the intro line in this post is actually just a tweak of the original description for that map.
    I named it Rinzler because in the movie, he may appear evil, but his true intentions are good (being controlled by CLU, but still tries to fight for the users or whatnot). This map may appear mysterious and unknown, but its intentions were to research the flood in order to save lives. so both are not what they appear.
    But mainly it is named that because i had just seen the movie before i created that map, gave it that name, and just never changed it... also, the Lower Interior Room kinda reminds me of the look of the movie.

    1: Does not have any framerate issues at all. only time it might lag a little bit is in forge, when all objective markers and such are scattered about. i tried my best to fit pieces together without creating high object density
    2: i more wanted to state that 10 players is technically possible with all gametypes, but isn't necessarily recommended. i now mention this in the description
    3: i put the turrets there so that it each side platform could hopefully be more recognized as a base. they are also very out in the open, so they shouldn't be overpowering at all (well thats the plan).


    Check out my other map: The Sprawl
    Similar is style, although a little larger.
