Dusty_ 48 Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) I myself love the rain, really adds to the gritty apocalypse vibe they got going on in chernarus, If you've seen the rain in Arma 3 it's way worse in my opinion it really blocks your vision quite abit.

oregonized 673 Posted March 2, 2014 I think it rains a little too often but I like how it forces people to play differently. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rapier17 48 Posted March 2, 2014 You'll like it even less when it starts to actually affect your avatar & their equipment. I like rain as it is and thoroughly enjoy playing on servers where it's raining. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MartinD (DayZ) 86 Posted March 2, 2014 I await the plethora of "I am sick and shaking because of the rain! turn it off" or similar threads that will follow once it actually affects individual players negatively. Now the weather is synced everyone has to deal with the visual change the rain brings, but the devs do seem like they're also trying to give the Cherno/Electro/AF snipers/campers a few more things to think about as well as more obstacles to overcome if they want to get those murders.

The hard part is going to be building a fire in a place that doesn't give away your position. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Whyherro123 2283 Posted March 2, 2014 Have you been outside in a serious rainstorm? Because where I am from, a storm with decent rainfall and winds will block your vision like you wouldn't believe. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liege 70 Posted March 2, 2014 I like the rain. I do think we need disposable/hiking ponchos or raincoats that can be rolled up into 1 inventory space when not being used but go over your clothes and have no slots.otherwise by the time you carry a raincoat, matches, gas stove, fire wood, can opener, wellies, first aid kit, cooking pot, canteen, sewing kit.. Etc etc, where am i meant to store my beans? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PJSleaze 111 Posted March 2, 2014 Rain will mask noise, too, which has many benefits, besides the limited visibility. I'd expect more activity during heavy rains in some areas. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not just me, if this is how rain is going to be your going to see; NO RAIN 24/7 DAY servers popping up. Edited March 2, 2014 by ASDF991 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not just me, if this is how rain is going to be your going to see; NO RAIN 24/7 DAY servers popping up. Let me get this straight: So you are playing a game that essentially aims at being a survival simulator in a world of a zombie acopalypse. Where food and basic items will be difficult to find, where drinking from the wrong pond can kill you, where staying outside too long in bad weather without being dressed in warm clothes will make you sick (and eventually die), where you will be able to hunt and kill animals, prepare their meat and cook it, and still you want rain not to behave like it does in reality: obscures sight on longer distances because you can't snipe other players? Are you aware how incredibly silly that demand makes you sound like? 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tors 5 Posted March 2, 2014 i love the new rain! makes the weather & the game world feel more dynamic! kinda hoping in the future, there will be multiple weather types, as opposed to just raining/sunnylike - heavy storm, light rain, early morning mist, lightning storm, really really dark, really windy, etc. etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NinjaTurkey 255 Posted March 2, 2014 i like the rain and the fact thats its going to be synched between players. But i hate the fact that it seems to rain every 5 mins.

I don't expect them yet to have a Sky texture for clouds with and without rain but I'd like to see that it's raining for 40 Minutes or hours or whatever but not 5 minutes rain, 5 minutes sun, 5 minutes rain etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Window Licker 504 Posted March 2, 2014 yes frequent rain that is constantly turning on and off, it almost like they are testing it or something. I like the feel and the elements it will bring to the game guess it's just ruined sniping SEE YOU IN CHERNARUS!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
