Servers with weather on?

Recommended Posts

Are there any other than experimental? I live in upstate New York, US. I was wondering if anyone knew of any servers with weather on, the clouds and rain are awesome.

That would be awesome but I'm sure they have other priorities.  I would love to see weather added ASAP.

I was on a server one time and it was raining like a mofo.  Im talking..hurricane like rain.  It was actually awesome.  Ive never seen rain since that one single time.

Yea me to, my clothes even got damped from the rain, now i never see rain anymore though. Maybe they haulted it for server performance.

Went on a server that had frost like conditions, everything looked whiter and heavy steam coming off my player while breathing.

Lightning and thunder too!

Maybe you have a 1/100 chance of getting struck by lightning if you have a mosin on your back with a bayonet on it!

Lol! J/K  :D

Arma 3 fog effects would be great. They can be set to different heights, too. So you could have the tops of the hills coming out of the mist and the town below in a silent hill style fog.

Some experimental servers have rain, looks pretty good and it should be added soon to game.

Thanks for posting that.  Looks awesome, can't wait to see it in the game!

I would say that this is somewhat low priority stuff at the moment. However, I think with the engine they have the weather effects already look pretty promising. I think within 6 months things will be looking pretty badass in the weather department. That fog idea is pretty awesome. Like climbing up a hill and seeing a thick fog, or seeing it in the valley below. Would definitely add to suspense/immersion.

In ARMA 2, it used to be a GIGANTIC FPS killer, but I can't remember if they ended up fixing that. I think I read somewhere that the rain is supposed to lower your body temperature and only the indoors,fire,rain coats,sunlight,etc, can help bring that up just like in the mod.

I also read that when you see your breath, it's supposed to tell you that you if you are standing still and not really moving much it will also lower the temperature and the visible breath is supposed to warn you.
