Haco.1546 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I always thought how cool it would be if Guild Wars 2 had a climate system but as it is Guild Wars 2 it would have to be different and the climate would influence the gameplay. I think regions like Cantha and Blood Legion Homelands would be great for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klowdy.3126 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Yeah, I like weather changes in games. They have the capability to do it, since we have the sandstorm in the desert. I would love to see rain, and snow out in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I'm pretty sure it does rain in some places, and snow in others. It just depends on where you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylent.3165 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 If they added a remove other players particle effects sure I'd love it!! I couldn't imagine open world boss fights though between a massive particle blur that makes it so you can't see the game AND it raining? Might as well turn the pc off and just keep tapping 1 your basically playing gw2. In all seriousness though if the particle effects from skills wasn't so over the top annoying id really like to see actual weather in places going on.

Zephyr.5382 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I always love good ambience. Some of the most impactful, mood-setting mods for Fallout 4 are the realistic weather ones, for example. Along the same lines as what @"Sylent.3165" says, though; I doubt the current engine can handle it properly. The environment effects would have to be culled during big/busy fights.

But they will need to hire weather women to be sent out to each zone, implement TV, TV remote and we will need to tune in at a specific time during the day to find out the weather forecast, I dont want my kitties to get wet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haishao.6851 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 There is some cycling weather in PoF. I find it especially easy to notice in Elon Riverland and northern part of Desolation. I don't think it's enabled everywhere in every maps of PoF though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugo.4705 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Dunno with PoF, but in core maps they havn't a global dynamic weather, it's always raining/sunny/snowy within a certain area. But we have some cases of dynamic weather: Dry top, Bitterfrost frontier,... Also hesitating about southsun cove and blazeridge steppes... rain/ashs fall depend on the time of the day I think.

killermanjaro.5670 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I'd love a proper living weather system. Weather being tied to only certain areas of maps / events just isn't the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khisanth.2948 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 A thorough implementation maybe. Simple surface level implementation is pretty boring. For example weather without seasons. On the other hand I really don't need more fights where I can't see a damn thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amused.3091 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 No! It always gets stuck on rain and I see way too much of that irl. lol I also hate day/night cycles because it gets too dark to see anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alga.6498 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I would love this! Back in the beginning of GW2's release I was so in love with the day/night cycles, soooo cooool! It does rain in some areas sometimes and so does snowing here and there. But a fully weather system _everywhere_ would be so coool! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gomes.5643 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Absolutely yes ..... exspecially if we combine them with events like e.g. "survive the snowstorm". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDchiaScrub.3241 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 OP isn't really specific enough for me to engage in discussion. We technically already have a 'weather system.' There is a day night cycle. There are weather elements per-zone. There are weather elements based on season (Wintersday). There has been some experimentation in the new zones I suppose. Some of this is automatic, and the seasonal events are more manual. **Again, it's all technically a 'weather system.'** I don't think even tinkering with it would add much value. Unless a new zone accommodates it...but then it's just another dynamic event. Maps already have dynamic events so...I don't see the point in adding it globally since it is aesthetic.

tekfan.3179 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I may remember it wrong, but I believe the game had a weather-system in very early builds. With rain, like in the human starting-instance, appearing throughout the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coso.9173 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 nothing pumps me up more than random thunderstorms in a map, i love it on other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadshow.9320 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Environmental effects yes. Let's have an actual blizzard in the shiverpeaks. Chill constantly in effect if removed reapplied and 10% visibility. Also desert should go from burning constantly during the day to chill at night and should also have mirages Like chest seen in the distance but disappear up close. The sandstorm in the silverwastes are great already expand on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidRoleplay.3615 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I'm indifferent to it. As some have mentioned, weather does happen occasionally--Particularly rain. But only as long as it's purely visual and doesn't effect gameplay. Tornados pis... get on my nerves enough as is, and any other neigh unavoidable pulling effect.

cyanweapon.7290 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I do actually like this. I've always kind of wanted some weather variance. Something to keep things visually interesting. I also would kind of prefer a more distinct (read: NOT EXTREME) variance between night and day. I realize I'm probably in the great minority in that last one, but I'd enjoy it! ..don't hurt me.

Zaklex.6308 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 They added a weather system in with PoF, but if I recall it's only for PoF(and most likely any future maps)...I believe there was mention of spreading it to the rest of the maps, but I'd have to go back and check one of the PoF developer talks.
