Wardogs Season 2 adds a rain system that will noticeably change gameplay

Wardogs developer Bulkhead detailed how rain will change gameplay in Season 2, which launches on October 15. Rain is not dynamic weather, so matches with rain have rainfall from start to finish, and senior producer Kane Allard told IGN it "completely changes the game," which some players may not like. Rain darkens the map and worsens visibility, thunder can mask gunfire and other loud noises, raindrops sound different on surfaces such as rooftops and helmets, windows fog up, and players inside are exposed to rain if a roof is destroyed. Bulkhead is not ruling out other weather effects but has to weigh how something like snow would affect gameplay and performance.
