Man, what a great start for RTNP. If only the ending could have been this good!

One of the coolest Unreal/RTNP maps ever. I think I actually like this one more than Nyleve already.

This could be called something that has an "Unreal" reference type of map all over the place.
Some inside areas, and outside, good for all fighting situations.
good map.
Just ban everyone

An excellent introduction. Tons of exploration, a nice amount of backstory and an interesting foreshadowed multi-layered structure to the canyon. It's essentially just Nyleve pushed up to eleven, but then I think RTNP in general would have been much stronger if it had followed that concept of taking Unreal concepts to the next level, as opposed to now where several of the levels in it feel pretty short and unambitious.

The first ever unreal level which I played through with a sense of wonder and exploration rather than apprehension and fear. The provision of so much starting inventory is probably a massive contributing factor to that :P a brilliant level

This is probably my favorite RtNP map. Exploring it for the first time was amazing. RtNP would have been fantastic if they had more maps like this.

I happen to like Bounds of Foundry the most from RTNP.

I did not happen to find that "Vortex-Rikers-like ship" on the clifftop. And after playing this map over 'n over again I still have no clue :P

No Mman video? It's like a 2 year old tradition is broken.

A good map, but not my favourite (hm... I couldn't tell a better RTNP map offhand though). The fight with the predators is the climax. The Behemoth in the lower level can be hard, too.

After you kill the Predators, unlock the final door but instead go in the previous area. The locked door right there should be opened.

I haven't made videos for the official maps for ages now; I realised it's a waste of time when there are several Youtube playthroughs that are frequently more through than I would be anyway.

This walkthrough was recorded by Maxer 64 exclusive for MOTW. Last time I saw someone recording beside you was Jethro. That's what I meant.

Funny how he ran away from the Predators instead of killing them. Coward! :D
