should do a poll on fog, seeing as there's a mod to remove it and i'm sure most ranged have done so, why have it?

I (as archer) am all for keeping the effects in place - IF the fucked up weather rotation is fixed already, as discussed another 800 times. Nofuckingbody was battling when it was dark and/or terrible weather, and the percentage of BS weather should be drastically reduced.

But IF it rains or has fog, this should affect gameplay a lot (even more than now, if you ask me), and measures should be in place to prevent anti-fog/anti-night/anti-rain cheating

I like fog myself but don't see the point of it when there are a ton of people who don't see the fog. Rain? well I'm on the fence because whilst I do like different weathers, I don't see the fairness in rain when CRPG is balanced w/o weather in mind, leaving ranged and agility builds nerfed for that map and also a lot of people also have the visual effects of rain turned off so w/e. Also fuck night time.

I would normally grudgingly accept rain mechanics, but the most recent patch makes ranged completely fucked during rain.  The problem is that rain happens A LOT imo.  For sometimes maps in a row.

Now, if this was a realism/teamplay game I wouldn't mind.  But this is a game where the playerbases response to Random Plains (sunshine) is to bitch en masse and cry for the admin to change the map to ARENA rather than deal with the situation. 

So if that's the spirit of the age, get rid of rain and let ranged have its challenges be consistent.
