CRYENGINE Beaten At Its Own Game – New Unreal Engine 4 Map Shows Amazing Forest Environment

YouTube’s member ‘Hristo Rusanov’ has shared a video from his Forest map, showing a map with dense grass and wind physics applied to the vegetation. It looks amazing (keep also in mind that it’s being created by an individual and that it’s still a WIP project), so make sure to give it a go!
