This game REALLY needs weather...

[Devastant1971]

Weather would be a great addon... hmmm... nice stormy day, all those lousy South Siders getting struck by ligh.. ... um... hi?

I agree. I would like weather.

It would be nice to have a light drizzle or just a sprinkle. Then if the rain picked up they could stop the game and have a fade out "we'll be right back"....then fade back in as the tarp is being pulled off the field "we welcome you back now that the rain has stopped, I'm Matt Vasgersian blah blah blah."

I would like to see fog added as well.

Cold it takes longer to get loose in the pen, hot pitchers tire more easily.

YES... and we need to see players sweat when it's that hot out too.

It was actually done by 2K back in 2K7... it was pretty cool actually. It would be raining, then suddenly the announcers would interrupt and we'd go to a cutscene of the the umps/field crew pulling the tarp over the field. Then the announcers would chat for a while, and the game would either resume, or be delayed until a later date, and you'd end up with double headers, etc.

^ This. Have a little drizzle but not too much and then have the umps delay it, They pull on the tarp and you see players in the dugout. It either resumes or becomes a doubleheader. And for those who say it'd " Take out of the game " you could bypass the delay scenes. >.>

I have a feeling we may see this in '11. During one of the previews for '10 they stated fog would roll onto the field, but then one of the devs said that it didn't work exactly so it didn't make it in on time. I would think by 2011 they will have it working and implemented...

...Keeping my fingers crossed

I would love to see rain and retractable roofs. I think it will be added this year along with motion control. Those two things are the natural moves for them to make going forward.

Agree as well

MLB 2k8, , had smoke breath and rain. It was cool

I would add balaclavas in Play offs and light snow in some cities in World Series.
