"I didn't see any rain, fog looked great and snow was awful.
That 'dynamic' snow stuff basically paints surfaces white, it looks ok on rocks but awful on anything flat - it doesn't build up, just paints.
I saw a player next to me climb a wooden fort, relatively 'new' by the looks of it, with nice flat walls, floors and a well made staircase - it was in the mountains so there was snow everywhere. Now, snow had come in and basically covered the place with white - the floors were just solid white, no texture at all - the cracks between the floor boards were just about visible as there was only a smattering on 'snow' in them, so it gave this really ugly look - go onto MS Paint, put a Jpeg image in and fill any part of it white with the bucket tool; see all those rough pixels? that's what it looked like between the cracks.
The person playing was actually so taken aback by it that he called over a Beth staff member to ask about it, the staff guy was like 'no, thats not a missing texture, its snow' and the guy playing said how awful and flat it looked and the beth staff guy gave his awkward stock response of "oh, it's a bug - it'll get fixed in the final build".
