Would this improve the games appeal and fun factor?

Do you all think if they implemented this these three things into the game...
1) Day and Night cycles... maybe 30 minutes day and 30 minutes night in each area... They would need to since all areas for it to make sense though.
2) Along with the Day night cycle... Enemies would be more aggro at greater distances, appearance changes maybe like glowing eyes... and in some areas would change completely, as well as locations.
3) Actual weather effects in game periodically. Like rain or snow or windy conditions.

Would this be awesome? Yes or No. Please explain.

    Meh, I don't know how much fun that could possibly add to the game, cool factor? yes...Fun factor? meh...

    I rather have armor sets with set bonuses (BiS) to drop unbound in various dungeons and more dungeons in general.

    These changes would up the fun factor. However, I wouldn't want any of these at the cost of any further load on the servers. There are enough problems caused by server load as it stands. Lag, slow (no) responsiveness at times, NPCs that take quite a bit to "skin" at times, invisible mounts, animations that just freeze, etc.

    It would be interesting to a degree to begin with but I feel it would quickly become something I'd ignore. Real fun for me is a big battle where you get to blast away at all comers, like a 'defend the hill' scenario :smiley:

    OR survival/ Horde mode. I think that would spawn some interesting builds too.

    it would be interesting but lag is bad enough already. I want more events like the summer/ winter fest. the other things mentioned would be good too.

    It's never wrong with some more atmosphere, but lets be realistic. NW on xbox runs as a badly made stop motion picture. If they should add more visuals it would become a Powerpoint presentation.

    Interesting idea but there are way too many things to fix as the game stands right now.

    Before adding a new complicated aspect to game, why not fix the stability and glitches that exist in the current game. I get disconnected every session at some point. There are aspect of the game that have been rendered useless such as removal of gems from resource spots. Fix the game to work before creating a new set of problems.

    I would rather have increased drop rates for orange things or some fixes for skirmishes or idk, like a way to balance PvP. Fighting in the dark might be hard too, I am already freaked out by the werewolves in SH during the day...no way am I going out there at night. Wait, what if we could sleep during the night and if everyone on the map slept at same time it would FF to day...

    @sundance777 haha! We would have to be sure to build iron doors in and out of our Stronghold to prevent the zombie horde from breaking in.

    @falkenblackhand not a bad idea, as seen in MineCraft. Could be fun. Do you want to add a mob pack quantity increase as well? :)

    I'd be happier with mount appearance customization than leaves and rain drops.

    I want customisable Guild Hall banners/flags! Instead of those generic ones we should be able to design a guild logo and put it on the banners! And the option to change your cloak appearance to show it too!

    8 hour cycles of day and night would make more sense. Then it would be slow and gradual, and naturally alternate every day so people with set schedules don't always get stuck on the same one

    There are a lot of people that experience frame rate issues, for various reasons, and I have a feeling that weather effects wouldn't help these people. Day and night cycles are cool, but I don't think they are practical with how the game is built. Anyone who has used the Foundry editor can tell you that.

    Ditto - Once they've fixed 60-70, I'd prefer they stop working on creating new events or content for the end-game.

    Yes, but this is the last thing Neverwinter needs to worry about.
