4s 16 this is our next map built from the
7s ground up elsen Bon Ridge a lesser known
10s but integral battle in the Arden 44
12s campaign of World War
14s II set in the Belgian region of buling
16s and the US valiantly tried to hold their
19s position in the small village of
20s verville with territory exchanging hands
23s multiple times between the US and German
25s forces eventually driven out of bville
28s the US moved onto Elenor bridge where
31s they dug in throughout the brutal
32s December of
35s 1944 this is a map that caters to many
38s play stars and
40s strategies let's take a look at capture
42s points on the northern part of the ridge
44s we have gun battery a strong defensive
46s trench Network that the US forces
48s utilized to set up their AA guns and
51s fearsome black dragon artillery guns
53s once settled they reigned Heavy
55s Artillery fire onto the Germans down at
57s verville this capture Point allows
59s infantry squads to hunker down while the
61s armor squads emerge from the tree
64s loine placed North in the countryside
66s Farah Hilda Farm features a traditional
68s livestock farm with a blend of Close
70s Quarters fighting within the Farmstead
72s and Wide Open Fields for vehicular and
74s long range combat infantry squads will
77s have to make tactical decisions when
78s crossing the Open Fields to reach safety
81s armor squads will have high visibility
83s across the vicinity here to cause a lot
85s of damage attacking from south to North
88s infantry squads fighting over the fuel
89s Depo camp capture point will experience
91s Close Quarters combat with danger
93s lurking around every corner while
95s Vehicles will have to provide support at
97s a
100s distance the checkpoint was often
102s featured in World War II to control the
104s roads in and out of regions it was key
107s to controlling the main road in and out
108s of verville so the Germans emphasized
111s protecting it by using the nearby barn
113s and protected Hillside for storage and
115s supplies its Open Fields are a Haven for
118s armored vehicle support while the hill
120s side storage provides infantry with
122s Close Quarters gameplay the changes in
124s elevation of the Rolling Hills allow
126s armor squads to utilize their
129s Firepower moving on to German territory
131s erdale Farmhouse includes a civilian
133s themed Farmstead as one of the more
135s relatively untouched areas by either
138s forces with a combination of enterable
140s bars of buildings and contrasting Wide
142s Open
143s Fields hinterberg is a forested area
146s that the US forces originally held the
148s Germans bombarded it with ar and burnt
151s it into the ground a key Skirmish that
153s forced us back to Elenor Ridge the
156s tricky terrain requires both infantry
158s and armored vehicles to use the
159s landscape to their advantage it's here
162s where the sniper roll can exploit the
163s long-distance opportunities the US used
166s the terrain to their advantage and
168s created fox holes to set up traps for
170s nearby German patrols this capture Point
172s depicts a no man's land area with hilly
175s terrain designed to provide armor with
177s good Vantage
179s points with we wanted to accurately
181s convey the weather that affected troops
183s in elsenborn Bridge who were subjected
185s to freezing conditions and blizzards
186s affecting visibility we needed a system
189s that could change throughout to reflect
191s the unpredictability of these conditions
194s VFX particles were created consisting of
196s various intensities of snow and we
199s decided on a set of presets to drive the
201s intensity of each level of snow this
204s meant we could tune each scenario in
206s isolation to adjust the weather
208s intensity and atmospherics the VFX
210s scenario was broken down into a set of
212s presets light snow medium heavy and
215s Blizzard snow we added the probability
219s of when the transition between each
220s stage would occur to add enough
222s Randomness to it whilst ensuring the
224s levels of snow to Blizzard stayed
226s synchronized and consistent
230s throughout Elenor Ridge will be
233s available for all platforms this year in
