Thread title. It would do you good to actually read it next time instead of stopping by with a drive-by.

It's the first open world game I've seen, I can't think of another.

Yep, maybe next gen we'll see devs go the extra mile with rain/floods. Must be hard/impossible to pull of dynamic water simulation on current gen consoles.
This looks excellent.
Division 1 had a similar systemic feature where snow would build up during storms (on both you and the environment) and then melt into watery puddles during sunny days.
Its weird that Deacon has the same attire for all weather conditions.There's definitely snow on Deacon as well.
Looks odd to be wearing the same clothes in snow as on a sunny day. Take Joel in Last of us for example. His winter clothes were different.

Not long to go then :)
I've searched on YouTube but I can't find what you're describing. Maybe you can share a video of this feature?
Clothes are locked behind story progression, afaik. Kind of wish this wasn't the case.
Oh shit, I remember that guy. Maybe that's why I thought it was UE4. Anyway, that's a gold star callback so I'm glad I made that mistake lol
That would not be that great since it would completely ruin the atmosphere of the location. Such as if you live in a sunny location it would be sunny all the time, and since the game takes place in Oregon it would not make since at all with no overcast sky's or rain most of the times.
I bet it was why you thought it was UE4 too, that moment must have burned it into your mind lol.
I still think he is VFX's alt as he only appears in Sony exclusive graphics praising threads to downplay them.
Wow. His jacket and hair are reacting to the wind. And everything gets wet, puddles of mud and all. I also like how it takes a while until the rain comes but the atmosphere, thunder, wind sound and lightning/colours really forecast the heavy rain.
Makes me miss thunderstorms. I live in the PNW and they are super rare. Think last time I heard thunder was maybe 2 years ago and it was just a very small rumble lol.
That's some cool tech, but I feel like the desaturated colors in the area kinda dampen the effect. Took me a while to realize "oh, right, everything's white now"
Yep, that's Central Oregon all right. They really nailed the environment.
