For the SEA yes, MA no. Nothing is more frustrating than logging on to play a fast furball only to find out you can't see a thing for the duration of your playing time.

Had that in AHI.  Didn't work due to too many complaints.  Might work in special events though.  That way you know what you going into

i think this is a cool idea...but it would be even cooler if everyone could choose what the weather was like or if it is night or day so one person could have it night and snowing while someone else had the weather bright and sunny:aok

They tired the dark. Didn't work out. Planes were usually grounded in bad weather. The Battle of the Bulge was a good example.


I really have to start looking at the dates  :uhoh Yeah I'm IN

How about earthquakes too.  Try hiting that M4 jumping above the tree line.

That's noting...at least this squeaker didn't bump his own 4 year old thread.

I really like idea of wind.  I'd like to believe that adding wind and have it rotate like the sun rotates now in the MA wouldnt be all that difficult to add. 

Simply have the wind stay a constant speed, have the speed stay constant per map (varied from 5mph to 15mph?), and have the wind change 30 degrees every so often (45 min?  maybe 1 hour?).  Every time the wind changes have a system message pop up on the txt bar.
