How do I create this?
CLICK ME (sorry image attachment malfunction, so i posted the link) 
P.S. This picture and everything associated with it belongs to Crytek.
Okay, so how do I go about creating this (In engine [UE4 as of now] and in Maya)? A step by step guide, pdf or tutorial would be great!

How I would approach this.
1. Model out a road,sidewalk
2. Look into texture blending and decals
3. For the puddle, create a material with reflective properties
4. Create another material for just the road (i.e no reflections)
5. Use layered materials so something like the puddle appears dried up in certain parts of the road, and wet in others
