Cpt_Bel_V 4,790 Report post Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) Well DCS is at a whole higher level of texture quality. In WT, when you add little things, such as Sonic cone or Contrails, you get bashed out by players In DCS however, when you improves graphics and visuals, it is welcome. The difference is indeed the playerbase. Also it always take more time to Gaijin to add realism into the game, because the graphic engine is only used in Gaijin games --> all things have to be created from blank page. Taking into consideration the last argue, and if Gaijin wants to do it, it would take quite a lot to have it developped, tested, and approuved, before the release.

ManOfHarlech 4,428 Report post Posted April 30, 2023 IIRC there used to be dynamic weather (sort of). I remember a couple of ground battles where it was raining at the start and after a while it stopped and the sun was shining. However that was kinda annoying as everything was "wet" (read covered in a thin ice-like layer) and was reflecting blinding sun rays like crazy... It was very rare, though... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyB85699 27 Report post Posted May 1, 2023 those thunderstorms on a night map would be very .... Also heavy snow on winter maps as well as heavy rain of other maps can produce impassable terrain that will totally change the way you have to play the map .... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKurj 234 Report post Posted May 1, 2023 ppl already leave if they don't like a map, reducing visibility due to the weather, is only going to make things worse. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sound of Rain and thunder need a Rework to ! this video show realistic sound of rain and thunder I have actually used that first vid to help relax in the past, and I have found a dozen others, Sci-Fi and so on that works too... But anyway.... that first one is not realistic at all really.... it has been heavily modified, edited, cut, pasted, cut and re-pasted and so on and on... the tree line is fake and the storm has been edited in as well, so not a good example to use... If I remember correctly... the game can have working dynamic weather, but it is disabled and more than likely for balance reasons.... there could be a major change in the weather that turns the tide for the other side.... I dont think there have been any recent answers from the Developers about it 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethantokes 85 Report post Posted June 8, 2023 This really needs to happen. "Balance reasons" is a terrible excuse imo. One of the coolest things in DCS is how awesome the weather is. At least some condensation on the cockpit when going through clouds would be nice. I really dislike that there is effectively no weather visually, it's probably my #1 graphical gripe.
