I posted this elsewhere but I want this approach to weather to be considered:
-
Weekly seasons leave weekend warriors only 3 days to do stuff on a 1week cycle and six on a two. If it isn't at
least
two it's automatically casual unfriendly. A2 won't tell you more than that. We know how once a week effects a casual player. Less time to keep up in a game that is heavily season dependent.
I know the difference between monthly and bimonthly from other hobbies in life and that's basically what it becomes. 'Seasons are a monthly event, good luck getting everything done in 7 days.' It's just casual unfriendly.
-
PvP and PvE will be effected differently depending on weather types. I am
concerned
about how much effort it's going to take the environment team to tweak everything relative to the weather and combat abilities. I am concerned a lot of the environment has been constructed without the weather or actual combat system in mind up to this point (but not very concerned, just a small niggling thing.) I hope, therefore, that it is the top of the list of the next interdepartment town hall.
- I am also mildly concerned about how big a spike in necessary resources for running the game on my computer certain types of weather like snow and rain will require. Weather typically tanks frame rates on even single player games. So I would hope there was an option in graphics settings that causes an automatic down grade of graphics settings in areas with weather present for those of us that don't have beasts.
