High-ground visibility: the prototype record

1 MIN READ

A record of the height-band rule and the captured two-player view. No release number, no invented balance changes.

The current prototype explores height-based visibility: the band under a hero's feet changes what they can see across elevation. The accompanying Dev Blog explains the rule and shows the two clients at matching instants.

The recorded map is a development test environment. The website's overhead map is a separate drawn schematic, not a capture of final terrain. Hero kits present proposed designs and may change during development.

This ledger records development evidence. It is not a changelog for a shipped version, and it makes no claim that these prototype values are final.

From the actual prototype recording

A contact sheet of the evidence.

Two clients at 9 seconds: one sees an opponent that is not visible from the other perspective
00:09 · Player one sees the opponent. Player two's opposing character is absent.

Synchronized views from FoW_HighGround_Demo. Cropped client borders; gameplay pixels unchanged. No exact height-band telemetry was recorded.
