Environmental Weather

Could thunderstorms, blizzards and other effects be a possible future effect that could add a more scarier ambience to maps?

  • I doubt it. The game can't even handle more than 2 zombies at once. Complex weather effects would be nice to see but probably not manageable.

    Someone who actually knows game development can chime in but from my understanding weather effects are quite demanding on a game. I mean proper effects too not like what we currently have. Not sure if the game could handle it.

    It wouldn't need to be graphically intensive, just different skyboxes, and some maps already have effects such as Ormond's snow, so just having different variables to this, such as higher wind speeds (simply changes the direction/trajectory of snow objects) or no snow at all, and a similar graphic for rain or sleet on other maps.
