Trivia[]

  • There is a scarecrow located near the cornfield wearing a military uniform with the labels "U.S. ARMY" and "SHEPHERD". When watching through sniper scope, the left eye appears to be missing from the scarecrow. This is a reference to General Shepherd, the main antagonist from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

  • There is a large dead cow in the stable and a dead pig on the table in the house.
  • The chicken coop near the house has killable chickens.
  • A teddy bear is found inside the farm house mounted on the wall.
  • The truck in front of the house has a California license plate that reads "NED MAN".
  • The tornado in the distance can be seen spinning around and tearing up buildings, but it never actually reaches the map, similar to the sandstorm in Oasis.
