If we can have snow, i want hail, acid rain and a meteor strike now and then. Tornado's. Earthquakes. Eclipses. Seeing a tornado full of cows would be a perfect snapmatic moment.

I think they should just add a proper snow cheat that simulates the Christmas snow thing. So many people miss out on the Christmas snow anyway because they're busy.

I'm also one of those who missed it last year and am curious, was it an online only thing or was it in single player too?

It has snowed in LA before. Not since 1962, but it's still a possibility. It has snowed NEAR LA recently.

I missed it last year so I hope they do it again. And I'd love to see the snowball fights added like Fuzz said. Maybe some cool winter exclusive vehicles like skis or snowmobiles too. I know they could only be used for a short time, but it would be awesome to go sledding down Chiliad.

 

What me and my friends did last year was everyone sits in a boat, one guys picks the boat up with the cargo-bob brings it to a slope side of chilliad and drops it, you slide all the way down. It works with a seashark/speedophile too. It's pretty awesome.

Man I'm all for realism being added to this game and I post a lot about it, but the snow is just a one day or maybe a few day thing and is interesting and doesn't effect the story mode. So it's actually in my opinion a good thing.

Do you think the snowballs will just be retextured grenades that don't explode but injure the other player if you hit them with it?

Do you think snow will pile up on the other guy's clothing?

It will be a retexured Chop ball. I assume it will do a little damage. But nobody wants to be the guy who gets killed by a snowball.

It'l just be a reskin of chop's ball with a splash effect, maybe one of the four people who will actually be able to play on Christmas day will be able to find out.

I hope we get the snow in SP too, but knowing R* probably not. :/

Correct me if I'm wrong, but there wasn't any snow in SP last year. Do you think they will let players experience the snow this year in SP as well? I think they should give us the option to turn it on or off anytime we want, and ours to keep (Sort of how the animus hack in AC3 was). I know there's a snow cheat, but it doesn't cover the map or anything. I also never use cheats in this game. I can imagine it now, having a snowball fight minigame with the 3 protags, childish I know but it would still be pretty cool. Hell of a lot better than Yoga at least.

Since the new update just came out. Can you guys help me find a snow cheat now? Maybe it will work with this new update.

No, they have a 'white dots floating around in the air' cheat for SP. Who the hell wants snow that never covers the ground?

I'm kind of having doubts now, since they didn't even bother to add the Christmas tree to legion square in SP. Online gets everything. SP only seems to get the leftovers or crumbs.

Most likely not.

The story mode probably isn't meant to be set around Winter or Christmas time so they figure they don't need to put it in or that it would break the story.

Being that online has pretty much 0 story, and even if it did have a story it wouldn't mean much since playing online would mean interacting with 1,000s of 10 year olds who go on random killing rampages for no reason they could put in things like snowfall without it breaking cannon or the environment of the game.

There is a cheat for snow to fall, but there are no snow textures that appear while it is falling. It is one of the weather types you can cycle through with the weather cheat.

I don't think you'll get the desired snow effect, and immersion by just few combination of cheats.

Only a modded version of the game can provide you complete satisfaction of all levels, and types.

 

Suggestion to try: Invest and play on PC!

There's no cheat for that. Wait until Christmas if you want snow in GTA. Rockstar releases an update with all these "snowy" textures, and then releases another with the old textures to revert it. The textures arent hidded in game files, they just come in an update and go in another. That's it. No cheat can trigger it. Anyway the weather cheat enables an snowfall so, give it a try.

 

I think it's kind of stupid that they put all of that work into the map with the snow textures and then only let you use it for a day? Do they realize that a lot of people are busy on Christmas?

 

I kind of agree...I'm visiting my gf's family on Christmas and I won't get to see the Christmas Day stuff.

 

On the other hand - how often does it snow in LA?

Signatures are dumb anyway.

I found the snow is already set up in the last update files on the 360, so it looks highly likely for this season.

OMG Gforce is on the GTA Online section

Man, I really wish Rockstar would let us summon the snow any time we want during single player. So what if we have to wait for a loading screen so the map can be changed.

I asked about it on Rockstar Support a few days ago and a R* employee responded with "Lolz. -1" so you can forget about that ever happening. It's clear R* only really cares about Online now.

Yes, Its snowing and its glorious!

Try flying a Titan, at night, from LS Int to Trevors airfield, No HUD, No Radar, Night time.

Its so beautiful! The snow is awesome!

I wish that PC players got something when the game launches for us, rather than having to wait another year for this.
