Evolution of Weapon Animations in Beyond Enemy Lines Franchise (2017-2023)
Beyond Enemy Lines - Vietnam is set to launch on Steam Early Access this year. Before diving into the details of this exciting new addition to the Beyond Enemy Lines franchise, let's explore the progression of weapon animations throughout the series.
From the early days of using animations from Asset Packs in Beyond Enemy Lines 1 and 2, the franchise has come a long way in terms of visual fidelity. The first significant leap in animation quality was witnessed in Beyond Enemy Lines Remastered Edition, where the development team introduced their own custom animations, marking a notable improvement over the previous titles.
However, the upcoming Beyond Enemy Lines - Vietnam takes the weapon animations to a whole new level. Building upon the foundations laid in the Remastered Edition, the developers have crafted vastly enhanced and immersive weapon animations that further enhance the gameplay experience. With meticulous attention to detail and fluidity, these new animations bring the weapons to life, immersing players in the intense atmosphere of the Vietnam War setting.
If you're eagerly anticipating the release of Beyond Enemy Lines - Vietnam and want to experience the evolution of weapon animations firsthand, don't forget to add it to your Steam wishlist.
The future of United Assault, Beyond Enemy Lines and survey evaluation
Hello everyone!
Today is the day we look into the future of United Assault, Beyond Enemy Lines and evaluate the latest 'Next Game' survey. There is a lot of new stuff coming in 2022 to play. Lets get started!
United Assault - Normandy'44 is a massive success for Polygon Art and the quickest selling game we ever build! I have big planes for United assault and here is what's coming next:
United Assault - Battle of the Bulge is a standalone expansion to United Assault - Normandy'44 and an open world rogue lite FPS set in 1944's depiction of Ardennes.
As a british paratromy you are assigned to a mission, few would qualify for. You are tasked to infiltrate enemy territory and locate, infiltrate and destroy one of germany's secret V2 factories in the Ardennes. You'll come along heavy enemy resistance, try to weaken their defense by destroying their tanks, equipment and by gathering secret documents.
What does this mean for United Assault - Normandy'44?
More updates, features and improvements! I'm not going to abandon United Assault - Normandy'44! Both games are build with the same code base and allows me to patch new features and improvements from Battle of the Bulge back into Normandy '44. All gameplay, gunplay and AI improvements will find it's way into Normandy'44 as well as several new weapons! If you don't want Battle of the Bulge, you still benefit from its development and get regular news updates.
Looking even more into the future?
I plann to expand United Assault with 2 additional standalone expansions in the same form as Battle of the Bulge. Those are:

Beyond Enemy Lines - Rising Dragon is the newest entry in the Beyond Enemy Lines franchise hitting Steam Early Access in Summer 2022!
Beyond Enemy Lines - Rising Dragon is a modern warfare shooter set in the Quang-Xiong Island, an autonomous island in the east chinese sea. The island is of great military importance and the source of numerous conflicts. Whoever hasmilitary control over this territory, is in close range to attack china, taiwan, japan, as well as south and north korea.
Satellite intel reports a lot of recent activity on this island and satellite fotos indicate chinese forces occupied the island. China denies this information and confirms that it has not sent any troops to the region. We cannot verify the credibility of the statement, nor can we verify the identity of the occupiers.
We need to get to the bottom of this mess. You need to be careful - we don’t want a major international incident out of this.
Features:
Powered by Unreal Engine 5 with Lumen Global Illumination and Reflections
Command your own Squad
Modern arsenal of highly detailed weapons
Large, complex missions with full tactical freedom
Mid mission checkpoints
Beyond Enemy Lines - Rising Dragon is smaller game in scope then Beyond Enemy Lines 2. We target a story set on 3-4 Missions, each lasting for ~60 minutes. We want to test out new stuff with this game, like a own AI controlled squad you can gve orders to and dip our toe into releasing a game with a new Engine - Unreal Engine 5. Beyond Enemy Lines - Rising Dragon is building the foundation for Beyond Enemy Lines 3 ...
