I will start:
- My favourite is either pestilence or ash
- I have all of them (also extra from each for others)
- I would like to see misty weather (not obstructing) and some windy weather
- I am really sad that they have not included any new this year in BP

You can discuss here or add me for further discussion (weather enthusiasist)

I like when it rains or that purple atmosphere effect.
I want them to add an Autumn effect with leaves falling down like raindrops.
Or may be a jungle terrain skin. Whith a lot of bushes and plants all over the map.

What do you think?

Harvest weather effect already has leaves, if I am not mistaken but they can make it more significant. Jungle might be disruptive but if done right, should look nice.

They could do a galaxy map skin with Ro'Shan pit being a black hole and the lanes looking like cosmic dust trails.

They could do an Egypt/arabic/middle east inspired style map skin.

They could do a Halloween map.

They could do a city-like/urban/modern mapskin with buildings and skycrapers.

They could do a futuristic mapskin.

It would be better to just make a one post with multiple lines next time.
weather moonlight is the best
This will be a good idea until we talk about hardware. most of player cannot afford a PC that can run full setting with weather atmostphere etc. don't say that you don't need full setting to enjoy the weather. Imagine that you actiavate weather effect in graphic setting then you don't use full setting to enjoy it? it's doesn't make any sense. Even worse the game will be more lagging. or the weather effect is suck as ♥♥♥♥ at low setting. think about that. do you have a PC that can handle weather effect?

I mean ... that is true for many games. I have powerful PC but strangely, some games run worse at lower settings for me. Basically, if you put the setting too low, the graphic card is slacking, so to get most of it, sometimes I need to put nvidia resolution over 100%. However I agree, weathers and terrains are great but you need extra hardware to fully enjoy it. If you are playing on a really old laptop, it is not a good idea to add any particles. Still you can enjoy the lighting of the effect. You can set it the way it makes it look like a night or midsummer without activating many particles.

My advice is ... If you have a lower end spec, stay away from rain and pestilence weathers. All others currently available can be tuned and are fine. :summer2019flag:

Is anyone missing any weathers and looking for some more? :summer2019cockatiel:
