Aerow 10 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) Edit : For all the people who want to try this out, there is a new hat that grants this effect. Research the Winter Hat and equip it.Woah, this just blew my mind!Great job Team Klei, always with the nice updates.

Vandragorax 10 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 Agreed! I'm really excited to see what will come of this Winter idea, I think it's looking really cool already! (if you'll pardon the pun) ;DYou get it by researching, making, and wearing the new winter hat added in the last patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aerow 10 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 @MassahResearch the winter hat. Whenever you equip it, it starts snowing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Knallis 15 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 Is this purely a cosmetic change so far? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toaster Fu 103 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 Yep, the Devs said it was just a sneak peak at what's to come. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin 3948 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 Yeah, it's just a sneak preview. Actual winter will have a couple more things going on to make it look wintery, and that particle effect needs a bit of work still Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toaster Fu 103 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 I kind of get a neverending feel from that ground… And I hope snow will fall on trees too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

problemdog 10 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) Yeah, it's just a sneak preview. Actual winter will have a couple more things going on to make it look wintery, and that particle effect needs a bit of work still So then is not being able to plant during "winter" a bug or a little more than an aesthetic preview?edit: I can plant pine cones, but neither grass or berries.

Captain Potato 11 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 One thing I noticed though..I couldn't plant anything while it was snowing...Is this one of the downfalls of snow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Full Metal Kirby 18 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 What's even better about the hat is that if you put it on a pig, he'll cause the weather effects for you while you're still able to wear something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aerow 10 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 omg why didnt I think of this before? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chocolate Tree 11 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 Light/Contrasts effects still need to be polished (I actually turn down my screen illumination, it looks better) , but yeah, that is the "concept" of winter that I expected for this game.Also seasonal beasts and plants are very expected. Any news on making Rain ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
501105 20 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 Rain would be a lot fun, dark nights with heave rain and hearing monsters in the distance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A Bad Feeling 18 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 What's even better about the hat is that if you put it on a pig, he'll cause the weather effects for you while you're still able to wear something else.That's some useful information right here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vandragorax 10 Report post Posted December 20, 2012 I also noticed that rabbits stopped appearing from their burrows when I triggered winter. I'm not even sure if they ever came back until I reloaded the game without the hat on. I think we got a bit more of a sneak peak than it first seems ;D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
