Are Seasons Possible?

[Robzom11 109]

I know seasons have been brought up here in the forums before, im wondering if its even technically possible in vanilla DayZ and if theres been any mention of it from the devs at any point? It would be nice not only for the aethstetic of Chernarous but for gameplay and immersion, I wish there were seasons so bad 😢

It's pretty much possible to implement it (look at Days Gone) but knowing DayZ dev team, don't bother hoping for it, you'll have your dreams broken. There are 8 people and they can't even fix the base game, much less work on a bit more difficult feature. Modders are your best bet.

New season = new map (variant). It's that "simple".

It dosent seem like it would be very difficult cosmetically speaking, more curious if it would be technically achievable without affecting things like persistence.

Its a shame it hasn't been added yet,  along with the list of other features not yet added and bugs still not fixed (hand/item desync being the most prominent bug imo)
