Commonplace 28 Posted June 5, 2011 (edited) Hello, at the moment if you place a fireplace in the editor and let it burn, it does even burn while it's raining, disregarding the rain drops. It would be nice if the fire is going out then, this would make the game more playable. Edited June 5, 2011 by Commonplace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadfast 43 Posted June 5, 2011 this would make the game at least playable. Eh, right... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smookie 11 Posted June 5, 2011 The point is good. But the last statement falls into community level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
b00ce 160 Posted June 5, 2011 Depends on how big/ well developed the fire is. Camp fires can survive rain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SASrecon 0 Posted June 5, 2011 Irl most fires the size of the campfire object or bigger in the editor don't get put out by rain (unless it's like a torrential storm), common misconception ;) I sense flaming to come Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pulverizer 1 Posted June 5, 2011 This is the real reason why they added PhysX. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steakslim 1 Posted June 5, 2011 Yeah, most rain on a camp fire just causes more smoke than anything, but the fire will still go on until neglected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Archosaurusrev 12 Posted June 5, 2011 BIS please move this suggestion to the top of your to do list. Thanks. I agree. The future of Arma lies in this feature.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5LEvEN 11 Posted June 5, 2011 I really hope this post does not get as much hate as my leveling post..... This idea I personally only add if there was extra time. Other wise there are more important things at hand. Yes this would make the game more realistic. As it is a SIM I don't see why so many would be against it... No it is not a priority...

SASrecon 0 Posted June 5, 2011 (edited) I really doubt this feature has any use; as I already stated, rain doesn't put out campfires unless they're left unattended for a long time but this ain't exactly a boyscout simulator, I mean the player isn't gonna go and collect wood to start a fire in a game and the only thing it would affect is if someone is trying to light a fire, wet kindling doesn't light :j: Edited June 6, 2011 by SASrecon typo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel 0 Posted June 5, 2011 A little extra smoke and flickering would be kinda cool. Not exactly high priority, obviously, but it could be one of those little things that create an atmosphere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankbuster 1733 Posted June 5, 2011 Outerra fires go out when rain falls on them, ergo, BI MUST DO THIS!!!!!111 Also, zombies, 19C cavalry, spaceships etc etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Dawg KS 6 Posted June 5, 2011 This effect can already be achieved with a simple 5 minute addon. Why make a thread about it here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nuxil 2 Posted June 6, 2011 i guess the topic starter has never been out in the nature. making camp fires. i like to be out in the nature. i been making camp fires in rainy weather. snowy weather. but never has any of the fires be put out by some rain. the problem isnt getting the fire put out when its raining. but getting it started. since you have to look all over the place for some suitable dry wood. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kvnastn 10 Posted June 6, 2011 I think people are missing the point here. to me this seemed obviously sarcastic. I think the OP is mocking people who post threads saying "BIS must add this" or "BIS must do that" when talking about small, generally useless gameplay wise, tweaks such as the ragdoll argument or the women soldier argument. I agree that BIs efforts are better spent improveing core functionality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zipper5 74 Posted June 6, 2011 The OP was a troll who created duplicate accounts to have conversations with himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ArmAriffic 10 Posted June 6, 2011 this would make the game more playable. Yes, cos' I can barley play the game because fires do not go out when its raining Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steakslim 1 Posted June 6, 2011 Perhaps given the nature of the OP of this thread and the absurdity of his topic and starting post that this thread should be locked, then soaked in a bucket of water, stirred with a stick, then soaked again.....then Smokey the Bear can take a dirty great big shit on it.

SnR 1 Posted June 6, 2011 Sorry mate, i too had a suggestion to see the leaves fall off when you hit the tree - didn't happen. I now go to Minecraft for leaf realism ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
