TBH a lot of the people in this community are stupid but so was the community at GR. They're tremendously narrow-minded and unable to look at things critically.

The blizzards are a serious issue that also effects the balance of the game simply because the meta is played differently currently with units being used that aren't affected by the blizzards (think, clown cars with flamers/guards/snipers/penals, snipers themselves, SU85, T70, T34s, Scout Cars, HT's/FHT, P4, etc). The blizzards also effect the way games are played because of the map design (think the thick snow on langres...it's everywhere, the VP placement on winter Pripyat, etc). Lines of sight are decreased...except if you have an ability that increases the LOS. This leads to a huge disparity in ranged weapons on winter maps that don't have the same effect during summer maps.

It's a part of the game that I think was initially an interesting idea that differentiates this rts from something else, but blizzards were horribly constructed from both a gameplay level and a technical level. There is considerable frame lag during blizzards when comparing them to the summer maps. If this game wants to be an honest competitor in 2013 there should be no disparity between the two map styles. If I get 35 fps during non-winter maps I should get 35 fps during a blizzard.

Currently this isn't happening because the game is horribly optimized from a technical standpoint.
