To do this at all though they’d have to sync the clouds, which should be something that should be done already.
You can be flying in clouds, and on other peoples screens you’re out in the open.

Not really a blocker for rain/fog. The way I see rain is that it would cover the whole map, and the map would have a blanket cloud cover, which would side-step the cloud desync issue. I don’t think you need clouds to be synced to do fog.
You do need the clouds synced, as they should’ve been for a long time already…
We have rain in game. You can switch it on in custom battles. It’s very rare to have it in random battles.
It’s crazy that this issue has not been addressed yet, I can only assume most people do not realize it’s an issue.

Would be nice to see the enemy ship get yeeted out of the sky.
Absolutely, I didn’t even know it was an issue until last year or so, and I kept thinking I was hidden, when I was just out in the open.
xD
On-demand rain is no fun, I want surprise rain in my random battles, but not super rare surprise

Why?
god no. some of the weather presets already awful in air mode. you need to crank up gamma to see what’s in front of you. game doesn’t need hurricanes and other badly implemented weather presets.
They can simply make an option wether you want this type of match or not like ground night battle.
It’d be awesome to see a front just roll in, press the match to get to a stage where it’s ‘won’ or near to it so the weather is the decider.
Which is sad :(
And that’s the literal issue.
Rain, yes, but it has no effect on the tanks’ traction in the game.
I know, but I’d like some crosswind at take off and landing. Also, in fight varies missiles’ and bombs’ range, etc…you know, basic wind, nothing fancy.
We have wind in the game. AFAIK it simply do not have influence on armament/vehicles (but it got influence on, for example smoke).
You need to be aware that such variable would often works against you. Yes, it sounds great to be able to blame wind instead of yourself for all the crashes, but lets be honest, at the end of the day it will be “I am sure Gaijin is against me, all the wind, rain and sun are always set up in the way to make me lose the battle”.
make a “limited visibility” mode, or “instruments only” for air that has both nigh and extreme weather, then get a bunch of the 80 to 100% cloud cover out of the regular matches.
For ground an naval (some extreme weather events that actually start tossing ships around would be awesome) it’s not really an issue.
But the sync issues need to be fixed in ALL modes.
I know and I’m talking about simulator.
If ppl don’t want it in AB/RB, it’s cool.
All I say is I’d like to have some wind in SB.
Don’t underestimate my ability to blame my mistakes on anything and everyone but me!
