I am not sure out of the tons of threads if anyone has mentioned this or not, but I would love to see changing weather. Make it to where people with lower performance computers can opt out of that option like WoW. It would be nice though to have something like that to add some character to the game and some people like me just really enjoy rain and its sound. Not to mention more snow and also sand storms for the desert areas. Just something to think about and hope for.

    If Im not completly wrong, the sky above archosaur is sometimes darkened, as if it's goin to rain soon...

    But anyway, good suggestion. Would make this game even more better with changing weather.... (what about season changes like in some other... new mmo?^^ jk)

    i agree with the season changes too. that would be epic. Thanks for the suggestion. This game could use the spicing up before it starts losing too many folks.

    There is weather. Some places have snow or rain depending on where you are. It rains along Widow's Coast and snows up north of Etherblade for example.

    i meaning weather as in all places having random rains or snows and so on. Not just the few specific places already in game. You could be in one area and then clouds build up.. then rain starts falling for about 30 mins to an hour and then go away. in another area samething but snow start doing the same. Just outside of Anch, have it start raining , just things like that.

    I've experienced that feature in another MMO. Everyone turns it off due to excessive lagging.
    Red Truth. A conditional truth - Pole BMs are epic... as tanks.
    Blue Truth. A possible truth - Full Vit Pole BMs are epic at AoE.
    Golden Truth. The absolute truth - My Pole BM is the most epic on Lost City.
    He who masters truth, masters the world. Maybe. Showering daily helps too.

    nah, not everyone, just those with lower performance computers. with dual and quad core comps and decent video cards that are pci express.. you wont lag any. Just please be sure to get ddr3 ram at the minimum if you are going to spend the money. They have awsome quad core prebuilt for around $600 and up online. hit me up in the game if you want the links for them. More and more people are using them now. But yes, have the option to turn it off for those that cant afford it. Its not their fault. But shouldn't keep the others from having the option to experience more out of the game.

    I like it. It would give the game a bit more character. The moon should also have phases, and the sun/moon rising and setting on east and west like it does in real life. I wouldn't mind ocean waves either.

    The game could use a bit of an upgrade when it comes to these things.

    yep i totally agree with you. This game has the potential to be awe inspiring and draw more people in. Oh and btw.... Please add some new music to the game and make it random, not just set to the samething when you enter this or that zone. The music now is pretty but not enough of it spread out and random enough. There are enough of us paying customers that im sure they can afford it. Its not that hard especially since they have the talent already working for them and on payroll.

    Agree about music, maybe they should have a contest for creating music like writing songs/ capturing music and such, then pick the best music, send it to Beijing and record it professional.
