This is definetely one for those LAN parties... Riptide is a map exactly as the name suggests. When you first spawn, it looks simple enough; bases floating on the sea, VPad's each set under the main compound. But then you decide to test the water... This is where the fun begins, because the sea will sweep you along helplessly if you aren't careful either in skiing or jump jets. Bases are set far apart (over 2k), but do not be fooled by this, as even a "heavy" can make it across in under a full minute. Visibility is high, and vehicle ceiling is about 200-300m above sea lvl. In adition, there are two objectives in the center, and scattered reefs containing items. Good Luck!

Oh yes, you got it. I have always wanted to make a map based on that movie since it debuted back in the Halflife days. Too bad T2 doesn't allow for SHARKS!!! (btw, I'm working on a map along the lines of an underwater complex right now... If this one is alot like DBS, it has nothing on the new one I'm developing :)

Once again, this is a server side map, not client as said above (until they fix it).
