Ground Fog
« on: June 11, 2001, 07:55:00 AM »
The clouds and wheather fronts are great!

So many neat things to add to the game - well here's another idea.

Would ground fog add to the game play?

An occasional fog front rolling in would do several things:

1. Keep the fights higher (flying into a hill side on the deck in the fog can ruins one day)

2. Obscure a base so that surgical bombing is nearly impossible.

Of course, too much fog could be annoying.. so it should be short lived.

The fog should appear on mornings at sea and slowly fade with the sunrise.
Randomly on the land.

Fog would be next awesome thing after the stormclouds. That would make whole new tactics to this game AND instrument landing would be necessary. The fog thickness should vary and when heavy, visibility should be down to 2 meters.

edit: I would also like to see different weather conditions under stormclouds, like heavy winds and low visibility. Rain with the typical "lines" on the screen shouldnt be hard to model.
Id like HTC to add new eye candy, since we now have enough planes for a while.
