A map thats got fun stuff in it

Download map here: WIND TUNNEL
Created for the RACE gametype

Created By: ACID MAILBOX, lookout and some details created by GORDON787

STUFF: This is the first race map I created in reach and I think it turned out pretty good. I didn't like the new forge for awhile because of the new controls, and i was so used to forging in halo 3. That being the reason I've been gone for so long and just now releasing this map. But now that I got the hang of it, it isn't to bad.

ABOUT THE TRACK: The track has 11 checkpoints all placed after certain obstacles. The order they go in provides for a cheat free race which I know many people like. This track is a decent length track(fastest lap I ran was 1min 15sec) for being all double wide and having as many obstacles as it has. Make sure you learn to slow down at some parts, not everything is meant to be taken at full speed. The wind tunnel works better the faster you are going, don't go to slow or you will find yourself far behind. The rails work fine the majority of the time, just don't hit them sideways, thats a bad thing. Also don't floor it down the stair section, its usually a bad idea. Only problems really with the map are that some kill zones don't work right(don't know why) and also can get the starting camera to work(also don't know why) other than that everything is just great.

NOTICE: This map has been created to have fun. The track was made using nearly every piece possible, making it longer but lacking a little in the aesthetics part. I don't want people to complain about it being too plain or a little bumpy in places, get over it, it doesn't effect the gameplay at all. I like to create/race on maps that contain a lot of obstacles and jumps which is what I have done in this map. I also like to utilize turns etc. which make the racer have to brake every once in awhile, creating a more even and interesting race IMO. When I create a track I like to try and come up with a bunch of ideas that have never been done before(at least I haven't seen them done) because i think it makes the map more fun and more interesting to play on. I'm not really a fan of a lot of the new maps because they look really nice but driving on them isn't to fun because all you do is floor it around the track. I hope my track inspires others to be more creative for the future.

THE WALKTHROUGH: The track starts off with 8 mongeese lined 2 wide on the starting platform. The track immediately leads to the first drop off over the cliff leading into the first turn. The turn drops down pretty steep leading into a somewhat inverted turn. This leads into a banked 180 degree turn setting you up for a turn into the bumps, rumbles. The rumbles lead you into the large halfpipe. After exiting you come up to a decent size jump. A quick turn leads you into the windtunnel(the faster it is taken the better off you are). Another banked turn is next leading you into another jump. This leads you to the rock tunnel and then to the top of the map. A small drop leads you into the grinding rails which then lead to another drop off. A set of large stairs follows leading into another banked turn. One last jump comes up followed by the large final climb.

Thanks for checking out my map, possibly expecting to make another map if I feel like it. Please leave feedback on what you think of the map, I want to know what can be improved.
