Seasons in zones?

[Matsume]

I thought of this earlier, but to show the passage of time besides day and night, would it be possible (or if it is planned) to have zones go through the seasons? Spring, summer, autumn, and winter? The Black Shroud would be a good place for it. It already seems like a deciduous (a forest that has the seasons, like the forests here in NA). I know that the passage of time is quite fast right now in the current game (day and night cycles), but if the seasons were added for realism, there could be different monsters and drop items that show up at different times.

It's a thought, and I'm sure it could be implimented later on in the game's cycle.

Hi Naraku, just thought I should redirect you to my post on Seasonal Effects & Environmental Growth made in April.

Wish it had gotten as much attention back then as yours is now, but I guess it's never too late.

Great minds think alike eh?

I like your thread, too. I don't know why it got overlooked, though. That's a shame as well. I do like your idea about zones going through growth and decay and how it affects our classes. I never thought about that.

If there are any quests for kill x ice elemental in a cold/snowy map, it could easily fixed by changing the quest to elementals in general -- Each elemental being different depending on the season.


Of course will different seasons, it doesn't mean everywhere will be icy and snowy during winter. I'd be nice if certain areas were more affected by the season than others, depending on the season.


Anyone remember Aion 2.0? Seasons... oh wait.
