Weather system.

In real life, I have better night vision than daytime vision.

In most - but not all - games, that's also the case. When the screen dims for night-time, I'd probably have an easier time keeping track of enemy ships - even if the game doesn't add running lights to help make that job easier. For that alone, I'd love to see night maps. I have trouble keeping track of distant firefights, and this might make my job easier.

As for the weather, I won't say it's necessary or practical, but it would be REALLY cool to see even if there was just cosmetic rain with no real in-game effects. Light rain causing characters to slide slightly so you need to stop running a moment earlier than usual to land in front of that hull armour, heavier rain slowing down your movement, hailstorms causing minor damage across the ship, but slower and across the entire map... so many possibilities.

I definitely agree that anything gameplay-changing would need to be optional, and preferably vote-based. Maybe an additional "Weather: Yes/No" vote under the next map options.

But it is one year until the co-op comes out. Fishsticks! Fishsticks I tell you.

And besides, that doesn't necessarily mean that the weather effects won't come before the co-op, riiiight? Riiight? And on top of that, since they're working on the weather effects already, they can implement it to skirmish mode first to see how it all works out. After all the matchmaking patch hassle subsides, that is. :3
