Any guesses on how customizable the weather will be? -Does anyone have any info on this? I think it would be tight if you could play a level in pouring rain or clear skies or night time or sunset. The possibilities are awesome!

They should do it like EA Sports does it in there games where you can Customize it or let it be like the time of day it is.

I don't know if I'd wanna get lightning struck with the flag or anything.... But it would be sick to see some guy standing on a high point and get nailed! -or maybe sniper shooting by lightning.. I dunno. I don't think they'll do that but it would be cool.

No, the Update said that they sent the guy to survey the storms in N.C. so they could work on a final, big level. It's not for use across different levels.

Quote from Weekly Update:

"Carney just got back from a research expedition to North Carolina, where he was gathering valuable information on weather systems. We had to call it a vacation to get The Man to give him leave, that's how dedicated he is. Oh wait, did I say weather? That's a big thumbed nose to the censors. Bleep that out, I dare you! Bring it! Anyway, he's back and back to work on our final and our grandest multiplayer map. This one is coming in a little late, but considering the fine state of our other multiplayer maps we're pushing it some. It's going to be worth it, but there's still a lot of hard work to be done."

Now, they never said he was there explicitly to use the weather info on a big final level, they only said he was working on a big, final level after he came back from observing weather systems. It is possible that they have a lot of the maps done and are now implementing the weather system in all of them. I sure hope they have weather in MP.
