Weather/Terrain effects. Surely this is the minimum we expect for CloD or the Sequel

They are changing the engine now, right in front of our eyes, with each beta patch, so the process is already underway.

I'm not sure I'm ready to take you up on the bet though......there will need to be tremendous work done to get the originally-planned dynamic weather system optimised enough to be playable without sending fps crashing through the floor again.

Add in the planned MMO and improvements to the net code required for that and it looks like a very tall order.

And given the time taken to get the engine revamp to final Steam release quality, it is difficult not to conclude that something will have to give.

(I suspect it will be the MMO. Maybe put back to the 2nd sequel...?

They have been just too damned ambitious with this whole thing. Putting off driveable tanks and MMO until the basics are done is surely the most sensible choice.)
