The tornado was a huge waste of time. Why didn’t they abandon it?

Visually it’s pretty cool right? Damn there’s the tornado I’mma stop and look at it quick.  That’s it. There’s nothing else it provides. I’ve never seen it alter gameplay.  Why did they spe...

@mrtwotimes Yo, if it actually threw objects around that were a hazard that'd be dope. But I somehow doubt that's technically possible with the game already stretching the engine and hardware (seemingly both user and server side) quite a bit.

    @OskooI_007 Yo, that woulda been dope and would make tornadoes actually "dynamic" and interactive. Things that it doesn't feel like it is now. Honestly I'm not sure if we'd "miss" anything if they went away. It feels way less impactful than the sand storm by comparison.
