WIND

[irishcavemen@yahoo.ie 65]

Im not sure if anyone else has ever mentioned this , but I would love if the standalone has the sound of WIND going into your ears from different directions depending on weather , like you would know where wind direction is by hearing it with your headset. it would just make the game more Real and suck the player in if he can hear his surrounding .

The wind effect sets a great mood.

Being out in the forest at night with zombies can be scary. Throw in a great aural soundtrack of wind, and rain, thunder, etc. . . Wow. However, I'm pretty sure I read on the "rocket answers. . ." thread that the weather is the one thing that won't be custom.

Wind's always out of the East, judging by the clouds. I never got very deeply into ACE, but I know it has wind direction and speed as a ballistic consideration. I hope that the standalone DayZ follows suit, and uses it for bullet trajectories as well as smell-based detection for zombies and dogs.

Also, sweet link, that mist was awesome. The bushes an dgrass being partly flattened by wind was great, too. I wonder how well that scales. Can we have fields of blowing grass? Swaying forests?

I just wish he adds that type of wind in from that mist video thats exactly what I was talking about

well, maybe wind oculd be influenced by the players, if the heatmap of chernarus is influenced by hotspots, like each activity, even walking increases slowly the heat in a place, and then the heatspots of each map can generate a medium which the game could simulate air pressure that creates wind, something like that, dunno

Well they should atleast add different ambients , kinda like how when your near the coast you will hear the ocean but when your in elektro you should hear some more Grungy ambience.

Im just talking about an Audio and a bit of Wavy grass and trees type of wind , not wind that would effect the Actual gameplay mechanics.

Yes but he meant it is still the ARMA 3 weather. It's not custom for DayZ
