you could always make the rain fade 20 or 50 meters in front of you your not going to know the real rifferance if you make it look good enough

and before someone asks me an identical question about looking up

A. with a flat roof you wouldnt see it because the rain would be flush with the roof, if you look at an angle you would still only see half of the texture, but of course the empty bottom half.

B. You could possibly see it if you looked straight up with a sloped roof and turned facing the lower part but only for brief instants when the rain were to hit the right spot... not a huge issue imo.
Sorry, I don't have the time to read all of the pages and posts, but this is something you are working on for PR currently? This would be sweet to see. I mean, that would just add another level of immersion to the game.

What about the sandstorm effect that used to be in one of the maps....was it operation sandstorm? Couldn't that be modified to look like a tsunami? Change the lighting and the colors....voila! From what I remember that effect was pretty decent.

That effect is actually quite old and was used in PR a long time ago.

Yeah. It is quite old, but it was decent. Couldn't it be modified to look like torrential rain with minimal visibility?
