Ya, i know it would cause alot of lagg and stuff, but still, i think it would b cool if it could accually rain, and snow, and stuff, and like if its really cold out, u gotta let your engine run for a bit to heat up, and like when your takeing off, if theres snow or water on runway u slip alittle idk, just think it make game more fun  ( not that its not already, best game i ever played )

Besides your atrostious spelling, it would make things more interesting.  But,  they grounded all aircraft when the weather got tough.

Let's not confuse a few clouds with extreme cold, wind, and accumulating rain or snow, which you seem to be doing.

No I did not confuse anything with extreme cold, or wind, or accumulating rain or snow.  Reread my post again, don't think I metioned any of that.  I said a little inclement weather and real clouds, not the see through haze that we have.  Some wind would be nice to.

Note, reread last sentence I DID NOT SAY TORNADO, I said a little wind.

The search button response is the true whine in this and all other post.  If you don't like the post or the topic just don't read it.

note that the snow is on the ground, not falling. snow on the ground wont have any impact on your planes ability to fly, assuming you shoveled the runway/dirt strip off.

I think the wind should be enabled (game already fully supports it, its just set to 0)  nothing wild, perhaps a 5mph ground wind tapering to 25mph at 25,000 and above.

not totally realistic, but more realistic than 0 wind at all alts at all times.

When you are dropping from 500ft a little wind wouldn't do anything

Like to see the ground covered in snow at least - just paint it white

Redman...

Your request for localized weather is a valid one. Don't let everyone here get you down.

A while back there were quite a few people asking for fog at the ports. So, I gave them fog at 3 out of 6 ports on a map. At first just about everyone was very pleased with it. Then many of the nay-sayers started bashing it.... "I can't see the carrier"..."I can't see the GVs"...."I can't see the guns"..."I can't bomb"..."I get low frame rates". Well DUH! That's what fog does. If you don't like it, there are other bases to fight at.

Anyway, idea bashing seems to be a way of life around here. Anything that adds to the immersion in the game will be bashed by someone for some reason.

I do remember some fog at some ports, it was great, made things tough, definatly had trouble finding carrier.  But it added a touch of realism.  In real life conditions aren't always optimal.  Besides that you could use the fog to sneak bombers in on the deack.

And the stock reply to this will be "This isn't real life, it's a game".
