Ravenfield Challenge League

[OUTDATED] Tired of the same old Point Matches on Island? Then try your luck with the challenge league! Over 30 scenarios across a dozen maps wait to be conquered. Can you beat them all?

NOW OBSOLETE

This guide was made during the early days of Ravenfield's EA phase. Many of the challenges below were created with earlier builds of Ravenfield in mind. You could theoretically still enjoy them in the current build, but some workshop items might no longer be present, and some features might be different.

Consider the guide to be more of an archive of Ravenfield from 2018-2019 than anything else.

Basic Rules

[NOTE: This guide was originally written back in spring 2018, but all of the challenges in it should still be achievable. If any maps, items, or vehicles that were used for these challenges are not available anymore, mention them in the comments.]

So, you've played a match on every default level, learned how to fly the Helicopter, and tested a dozen mods from the Workshop? Nice work! Why stop playing the game at that point, though? Ravenfield has endless possibilities for creating new configurations and battle scenarios. If you're hungry for more action, then these challenges were made for you. Over 30 of them are spread across 3 difficulties. Get ready to take on angry farmers, undead swarms, sniper battles, and more!

To try out a challenge, adjust the settings of your instant action game to match whatever is written in the guide. Almost all of the settings are precise, with the exception of the team balance, and even that has an explanation on how it should be adjusted.



Some challenges will require mods to play. Any custom maps, vehicles, or weapons will have hyperlinks to their Workshop pages. All it takes to download the right mods is a couple clicks!

As of writing, you can't give the bots the Akimbo Automaticos or the Bundle o'Buss. Don't panic when you can't find them in the weapon limit menu! That just means you can use those guns in the challenge, even if the AI can't.

The challenges are divided into three "leagues" based on difficulty. Bronze League is meant for beginners, Silver League for casual FPS players, and Gold League for veteran FPS fanatics and Ravenfield experts. They can be played in any order you like, though I would recommend starting with the easier options. All of them have been tested and can be beaten.

With that out of the way, let's begin with the easier challenges...

The Bronze League - Easy Challenges

These challenges will test your mettle, but they won't break your will. Recommended for players new to Ravenfield or people who want to start small.

Weapons: 76 Eagle, Greaser, Quicksilver, S-IND7, .357 Condor, M1 Garret, ThompsonDrumMag, Mauser C96, Colt 1903 Hammerless
Gear: Any melee weapons, Ammo Bag, Medic Bag, Squad Leader Kit
Rules: Win the match without going below one battalion left.

A local mob boss has put a price on your head, and now every would-be assassin is gunning for you. Time to fight fire with fire! Join up with your own hired guns and destroy the men guarding his villa. Keep at least one reserve of your guys alive, or you'll never retake your territory!

2. Clear Skies Ahead

Map: Archipelago

Respawn Time: 10 seconds
Team: Eagle
Game Length: Normal
Vehicles: Any except Attack Helicopters, Transport Helicopters, Attack Planes, and Bomber Planes
Weapons: Default guns
Gear: Any except Scalpel or Hydra
Rules: Secure a flag on the island within two minutes of the game starting, then win the match.

Eagle and Raven wiped out each others' air vehicles in an earlier battle, leaving both sides without air power for now. You've gotten word that Raven will be getting a fresh shipment of choppers in a day. Don't let them get that advantage! Use whatever vehicles you have to get an early foothold on the island, then take down their forces. With any luck, you'll have good defensive positions ready to repel their counterattack.

3. The Line

Mode: Spec Ops
Bot Count: N/A
Respawn Time: N/A
Team: Eagle
Game Length: Normal

Gear: Frag Grenades, Spearheads, Ammo Bag, Medic Bag, Wrench, Sabre, Squad Leader Kit
Rules: Win the match with at least 1 squad member surviving.

Command wants you and your men to scout out the Dustbowl for enemy forces, so they've pinpointed an outpost that they want you to investigate. Radio activity around there has been busy, but the signals don't sound friendly. Oh, and try to keep your men alive this time, would you? You can't keep using our soldiers as cannon fodder!

Gear: Any
Rules: Every kill you make grants you one second of slow motion for a total of 10 seconds. Team balance is 40% for your team and 60% for the enemy team (if one of your teammates disappears in the preview image, you've moved the balance meter too far). Win the match.

You may not be a hard-boiled New York detective, but you got the reflexes of one. Your kills boost your bullet time meter, letting you slow down time at the press of a button. Use your powers to take control of the area with your allies. You may be outnumbered, but you have an ability your enemies won't be ready for.

A patrol of Eagle and Raven pirate ships have gotten into a battle, and in desperation they've broken out the explosives. Bombs are flying all over the place! Make sure you secure your own ship, no matter how the battle goes. You must hold onto at least one flag throughout the match, even if your team loses.

Your friends in the army keep laughing at you behind your back. "Why does he keep using those outdated guns?" they ask. They want to slap optics and rails on it, but you know your rifle is fine as it is. Show them there's more to a gun than the looks or fire rate! Do the job their guns can't, and take out at least 20 targets at long range. You can use the Squad Leader Kit to measure distances. After this, maybe they'll gain some respect for your weapon of choice!

Bot Count: 30
Respawn Time: 6 seconds
Team: Any
Game Length: Short
Vehicles: N/A

Two outlaw gangs have gotten into a turf war over a parcel of land that's barely worth a few dollars. They've whipped out their revolvers and rushed into battle guns-a-blazing. Don't expect to use any fancy rifles or new-fangled gatling guns; all you've got is the .357 Condor strapped to your belt! Help your posse secure this "valuable" piece of territory!

Gear: Anti-Thot Machete, Air Horn, Ammo Bag, Medic Bag, Squad Leader Kit
Rules: Win the match without deploying your last wave of reinforcements.

The Anti-Thot Defense Force's helicarrier is under attack! Link up with your surviving agents and reclaim as much of it as you can. You're badly outnumbered, but you know this base like the back of your hand. Your opponents think they can beat you on your own turf; make them regret their arrogance!

Seems that an alarm was tripped in your office a few minutes ago. The camera footage you've seen showed armed intruders occupying the cubicles and trying to gather up information on your company. Police are still 15 minutes away, so you and the other 2 guards will need to resolve the problem on your own. Bring a flashlight or some NVGs - the intruders shut down the power and are trigger-happy enough to shoot at anyone who isn't wearing their colors.

You may not be allowed to kill, but you can still make a difference on the battlefield! Repair vehicles with your wrench, resupply your allies with ammo bags and medic bags, carry teammates around in vehicles, capture flags, and stun enemies with spearheads to lead your team to victory.

Last night, you bragged to your brothers-in-arms at Eagle that you could totally wipe out the Raven naval fleet by yourself. Well, there's a red alert at the coastline and reports of a Raven invasion force landing. Time to man up or shut up! Take your position at the top of the Bluff and secure the Anti-Tank emplacement. Don't stop there - use that tactical position to help your team win! Knock out 5 Raven-controlled boats using that weapon. You may just tip the odds in Eagle's favor.

Rules: Win the match.

Reports are surging in about suspicious activity at the docks, most of them pranks. Who do these people think they're fooling? "Energy weapons falling from the sky!" "UFOs and VTOLs doing battle!" The public just aren't taking us seriously. Humor their jokes and investigate whatever's going on down there. If you do encounter any opposition, don't let them get control of the area.

Game Length: EPIC!
Vehicles: Default Vehicles
Weapons: All weapons in Vietnam - NATO Pack except for the M8 Flamethrower.

Rules: Win the match.

Crown Island is the cornerstone of Eagle's island territories. Raven has had its eyes on the territory for years, and now it has launched an all-out attack to claim it. Fall in with the Raven paratroopers and secure the island for your nation. You've been given some new equipment to help with the invasion...as have the Eagles. Remember to stay alert, stay mobile, and stay in control of the island's outposts! Losing too many of them will shut out Raven reinforcements for good!

10. Armored Fury

This land is too soft and hilly for heavy armor, but the officers just won't accept that! Raven and Eagle have deployed tanks to overrun their foes, risking valuable equipment to the dangerous cliffsides and fragile walkways. Orders are still orders, so you'd better adapt to this new strategy.

"Afghanistan is a big place." Well, nobody bothered to tell you that! Your forces are stuck down in this dustbowl without support, and now a local militia has sworn to drive you out. Reinforcements are a week away, and your orders are to hold the line. Overpower your opponents and take as many command posts as you can. Your guns are crude and obsolete, but they'll have to do for now.

12. The New Order

In the quiet hours of the night, an Eagle strike force comes to blows with Raven's army over control of a strange maze-like structure near the coast. Something about the place has awakened unusual urges in you. Maybe it's the light, the crash of the waves, or the roar of gunfire, but you suddenly have the desire to RIP AND TEAR the Ravens sent to guard the place. Oh well, who needs guns or bombs; show the Ravens you mean business by taking out at least 20 of their troops in close combat! Maybe if you win, your squad will call you a hero instead of a violent maniac.

The landscape is beautiful, but there's a small problem: a horde of the undead are trying to end your lives! Use the terrain to your advantage and fight off this painted army.

The Gold League - Hard Challenges

Bring your A-game to this league. Challenges are merciless and will demand all of your effort. The odds will be stacked against you. Recommended for veteran FPS players who know Ravenfield's mechanics inside and out.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Hamburger Hill

Map: Temple
Mode: Point Match
Bot Count: 60+
Respawn Time: 10 seconds
Team: Any
Game Length: Long

Gear: Dagger, SLAM-R, Frag Grenades, Wrench, Sabre, Ammo Bag, Medic Bag, Squad Leader Kit
Rules: Keep the match going without a victory until at least one team has 2000 points.

This is the stalemate to end all stalemates. Caught in a bottleneck, two rival commanders are throwing thousands of men at each other to break the siege. You wouldn't want either of them to feel bad, would you? Make sure both sides feel like they've fought hard and did their best. Prevent a victory from occurring until one side has reached 2000 points. Anything after that is fair game.

2. Cow of Duty

Map: Island
Mode: Point Match
Bot Count: 50-60
Respawn Time: 10-15 seconds
Team: Raven
Game Length: Long
Vehicles: Tractors replace MG Jeeps; Jeeps, Quads
Weapons: 76 Eagle, .357 Condor, Bundle o'Buss, Winchester, Gewehr 98, Double Barrel Shotgun, Lee-Enfield, Scoped Lee-Enfield, any other unscoped bolt-action rifles, any revolvers
Gear: Wrench, any melee weapons, Ammo Bag, Medic Bag, Frag Grenades
Rules: Run over at least 10 enemies in Tractors, and win the match.

A farming cooperative between Eagle and Raven civilians has collapsed. Too many disputes over missing cattle and damaged fences have escalated into a full-blown turf war between farmers. You gotta show these Eagle chumps not to mess with your crops! Crush at least 10 of them under your tractor to get the message across.

3. Icarus Effect

Gear: Dagger, SLAM-R, Scalpel, Thumper, Frag Grenades, Spearheads, Smoke Grenades, Wrench, Sabre, Ammo Bag, Medic Bag, Squad Leader Kit
Rules: Shoot down at least 15 Eagle air vehicles before the match ends.

Air superiority is a tried-and-true tactic for success on the battlefield. Eagle and Raven have deployed their latest and deadliest aircraft in an effort to break the stalemate at the Mountain Pass. Your commanding officers have extreme disgust for Eagle's air force, and would love to see some of their fancy choppers and planes go down in flames. Live up to your commanders' expectations and clear the sky of Eagle air vehicles.

4. Do You Like Hurting Other People?

Mode: Point Match
Bot Count: 24

"Hi! This is SteelRaven7 from Eagle Cleaners. Can you fill in for me tonight? I was supposed to clean up a beachside house tonight, but I'm not feeling good. Wear your best jumpsuit and bring some heavy-duty cleaning supplies. You'll have a lot of messes to scrub out before the night ends. Make those stairs shine, alright? And don't forget to switch cleaning products often. Thanks again, bro!"

Respawn Time: N/A
Team: Raven
Game Length: Normal
Vehicles: N/A
Weapons: Default weapons
Gear: Default gear
Rules: Kill all enemies within 15 seconds of spotting an intruder, and win the match.

You need lightning reflexes to become a Raven installation guard. Today, you and the other recruits will be performing a defense exercise on the Archipelago base. Several men in Eagle uniforms will attempt to overtake your post. Don't let them pull it off! Both sides are armed with less-lethal rounds. When you spot the intruders, eliminate them all before 15 seconds pass. Do this, and you'll qualify for the next round of tests.

Rules: Team balance is 0% for your team and 100% for the enemy team. Score at least 50 points before the match ends.

Your unit got wiped out by an overwhelming Raven attack force. Left to die in the elements, you've decided to make a last stand. If you're going down, you'll take as many Ravens with you as you can! 50 points should spread fear among their ranks, but you can keep going for more. Who knows, if you get 150 points, then you might live to fight another day...

7. Red Star

Map: Coastline
Mode: Point Match
Bot Count: 60

Gear: RPG-7, Ammo Bag, Medic Bag, Hammer & Sickle, Sabre, Wrench, Squad Leader Kit, Frag Grenades
Rules: Raven only has the Spring flag at the start. Win the match.

Comrades! We have been chosen to spearhead the Pacific Islands invasion! This is the homeland of the Eagles, so expect brutal resistance from them. They will fight for every centimeter of land on this island. Do not be afraid of them! Like a hunter in the tundra, we will meet their cowardice with deadly precision! Now go, and make the Premier proud!

8. Dead Men Walking

Map: Medieval Massacre
Mode: Haunted
Bot Count: 50
Respawn Time: 5 seconds
Team: Eagle
Game Length: Normal
Vehicles: N/A
Weapons: Any available on map.
Gear: Any available on map.
Rules: Every headshot allows you to turn on slow motion for 5 seconds. Continued headshots reset the timer for slow-mo. Win the match.

If you spend your life killing people, you should expect retribution. All of your victims have risen from the dead, and they're intent on avenging themselves. Radios aren't working, roads are blocked, and your weapons have vanished. If you want to survive until dawn, you and your squad will have to fight like hell.

Post-Completion Wrap-Up

How far did you get? Whether you beat one challenge, one league, or everything on the guide, you still put the effort in, and that's what counts. At the end of the day, Ravenfield's all about having fun. Hopefully, you had a good time playing around with these challenges.

If you have your own idea for a challenge, leave it in the comments below. Who knows? If it's beatable and entertaining enough, it might end up in the guide!

Thanks for reading!

[Rook1eURU]

Ok, sorry. Apparently i can't read. Thanks for explaining, it makes way more sense now.

[Yossarian the Assyrian]

@Rook1eURU Preview section, not previous section. The preview section is the picture of the vehicles and soldiers below the map settings. It changes depending on what settings you tweak. If you move the balance meter far enough, one soldier will disappear from the other team. You can use that as a way to tell if you have increased the enemy forces too much.

If you only have 2 soldiers visible, then the other team controls 66% of the bots. If you only have 1, then the other team controls about 84% of the bots. If all of the soldiers on your side are gone, then every bot will be on the other team.

I hope that explains everything, and that you enjoy the new challenges.

I don't get what you mean, which previous section are we talking about?

In any case the new updated challenges seem really nice. Can't wait to try them out. Thanks for reading.

I updated the Agents of ATDF challenge and replaced the SUPERHOT challenge with a new one called Night Shift. Battalions apparently doesn't factor in game balance anymore. I also swapped their positions in the Bronze and Silver Leagues.

@Rook1eURU You might be setting the balance too far in favor of the enemies there. In Max Payne Mode, the enemy team is supposed to have a few more players than yours does. If you've moved it far enough that one of your teammates disappears in the preview section, you might be adjusting it too far.

So... i see 2 options here (which i would do if the challenges were mine. They aren't, you can completely ignore everything i just said if you want to, but i wouldn't want people playing all these challenges get confused by some of the situations i tell you); either balance is removed from the challenge, OR bot count is decreased while the gamemode is still Point Match (maintaining balance). And in both cases reduce the respawn time to 3 (so if the timer bugs, it can still be 6 seconds instead of 12)

As for the other challenges, i've played the first 10 and so far i do like most of them, i say most because of the ones that have this little problems, but they are all, overall, really fun and refreshing to play. Will start the Silver League after i've completed all of them (7/10).

Sorry for the bother and i hope this feedback helps. o/

This is because since on Point Match having 0 flags means losing, the moment you and 2 or 3 other teammates get killed it's game over. Raven rushes your spawn and it's a 0-2 flag count, in Batallions you could at least try to survive and capture another flag. Also the fact that the respawn timer is bugged (meaning the 6 seconds of respawn time can perfectly become 12 since it just resets for some reason) makes it impossible to respawn in time to at least clean up some ravens from spawn before it's too late. I think i have a strategy that could be used to win the match, but it would take a lot of time to pull off.

Hello, again, i'm here to give out some thoughs on challenge 8 (Bronze)

I don't state this in an angry or destructive way, but... It's impossible on its current state.

"Why so?"

You see, as mentioned in my other comment; Batallions and Balance don't get along. So i thought on doing it in Point Match... and that doesn't really help at all. In fact if Batallions and Balance could be done at the same time, it would be easier.

That might be my mistake. I didn't know about all the inner workings and glitches in the game modes. It sounds like changing it to point match might be a better option.

[Rook1eURU]

So, either i'm dumb or challenge 4 from the Bronze League (Max Payne) can't be set-up. balance does not seem to affect the bot count in Battalions. I am recording myself doing all of these challenges and it really scares me that there's already one of them that i cannot complete.

So if there is some way to fix this or some replacement i can do please let me know. This really looks like an amazing idea and not being able to fully experience makes me feel a bit down. (I'm playing on EA 19). I'll just keep going forward for now, hope you read this. o/

I replaced the challenges requiring Archipelago (OLD) and Desert Storm. They were fun, but there's no point in keeping them if they can't be done anymore. Hopefully, their replacements will be enjoyable as well!
