Re: Delete "Storms", "Fog", "Extreme Weather" from future BF's.

@0_Katsui I like the dynamic weather change in BF V and generally its good to have a dynamic environment in battleground. But for 2042 I agree that unfortunately storms didn't add anything to joy of playing.

    I actually want more weather effects. Though I understand why excessive glare is annoying.

    I think they could be okay, if they were rare or actually made a noticeable difference. At the moment they are just a nuisance. They don't change the battlefield at all, no buildings collapse, gashes in terrain, etc. it's just something that messes with your UI and maybe pulls you into the sky if you don't lay down or hide in a building. But the randomness of it and the location can completely screw up a round of breakthrough when it goes over a defending point or whatever and just messes it up.

    I did not mind it in Battlefield 5 because the extreme weather was rare. Most of the time it was just sunny, overcast or slightly rainy. Kept it a novelty without overstaying it's welcome.

    That being said, I would rather extreme weather just didn't exist because it is just a silly gameplay inhibiting gimmick.

    Imho fog, wind and rain can add atmosphere to a round, the tornado on the other hand is as you say gimmicky.
