Is there any information on how the weather will look in Oblivion. Like if puddles will form during rainstorms or bounce off surfaces other than water. I didn't like how in MW the went through bridges and tunnels. Also how the rain completly ignored the NPCs and you. Some screenshots would be nice. Also what about other types of weather: snow, sleet, hail, and windstorms.

i doubt that physics will work on "raindrops" and alike ... that would be a crazy amount of calculations to be done.
i havent recently seen weather effects been done in newer games (HL2, D3,...). actually thats not true. Ive played around with the editor of FarCry, and with knowledge you could activate the built-in weather effect of rain on a custom map.
but it looked very bad - guess thats why they cut it out of the game in the end.
id say they go for some fancy shaders for the most part.

i was referring to natural desasters that actually happen on earth. i dont think that "daedric invasions" are considered natural desasters here, i think they are considered fiction.
and from the like he was asking it, i think we can probably assume, he means "real" natural desasters.

QUOTE(DoomedOne @ Sep 28 2005, 04:07 AM) To Channler, they don't have to deal with that because it won't be snowing that much. Really? that's to bad... i was just thinking that the closest thing to a random natural disaster would be a blizzard. or thunderstorms. however i wouldnt doubt that they would have some sort of earthquake related to the main plot. just thought of something. wouldn't it be awesome if you could get struck by lightning? i mean not so much that it gets retarded but rarely when you are the tallest thing in the area in the middle of a thunderstorm and a lightning bolt strikes you.

I just hope it won't rain and snow through bridges and the like. In Morrwind it gets hard to roleplay the homeless sentient that's finally found shelter when it's raining through said shelter...

lol i love weather, if the rain thing is true....the people seeking shelter i mean, then i would walk through the rain and look for a fight...i'm still po'd that there aren't any dragons...but i hope there are still vampires, and a new thing i think they should've added was Dhampires. Dhampires are half human, half vampire....live long, run fast, high strength, they don't have vampiric weaknesses such as "Death by sunlight" that would be really kool.

There are vampires and I have heard that the ONLY thing that kilsl them is sunlight and all you have to do is sleep during the day as a vampire get soem blood at night and have fun you can still complete the main quest
