*groans* no way ... can I just skip the patch? pleeeeeease???
Its a tiny patch.
Anyway, it seems there's a terrain bug... any of those little grey spots on the ground where you can mine (at least i think its those) appear as a single floating tile above a sunken hole. It doesn't really change anything.. it just looks odd.

It looks nice. I'm in a place that never gets snow, so I'm all nostalgic.
There's snow everywhere...that's new, isn't it? IN the EC it's quite ethereal.

Okay, I'm not quite understanding how it actually snows in Ter Mur...
Can someone enlighten me?

I wish I knew how to post pics in this forum, or I'd show you just how beautiful it looks in EC.
I'm so happy. Thanks devs 
I've just about had enough... this sort of stuff would be seen by anyone in QA spending about 20 seconds looking at the game...

"High level"? I have no idea what on this scale counts as "unacceptably bad"'.

Aurelius, we are aware of the issues with snow. They are the same issues that come up every year. We do it because its fun, the players love it and it takes no time at all to put in. I do apologize for these bugs but it was either snow with a few minor bugs or no snow at all. We opted to go with snow.
I do want to someday put in a proper system for changing artwork based on seasons. Then it could be more than just a short time thing for the holidays.

Even Luna looks a million times better. I was trying to put my finger on it...
And I realized it's because the snow breaks the horrible monotony of sandstone everywhere. It also mutes some of the garish colors people put on their vendors.
If only it would snow in Luna all year long.
There are a hundred small details that make it aesthetically pleasing, from the faded edges to the blue and green tints to the crystals poking above the ground.
Whoever did this deserves a big pat on the back.
That'd be so very cool
(and thank you for the snow, makes it all that much more fun *smiles*)
It's great to have devs take the time to do those things, and even more great to have them on the boards, even putting up with the grumpy players we all are one day or another... just because we 
the game!
Again, thank you very much and merry XMas

The snow is beautiful... I was quite surprised when I logged in.
Love the snow!! It makes my little cottage in the Yew forest so peaceful! *smiles*
You gotta warn people before you post those 3D picsYour right, In EC I have snow in Zento and its gorgeous.
i just puked in my mouth a little
LONG LIVE 2D !!!!!!!!!!!!
With the snow, I can now see the mining outcrops that have been invisible on EC. My miner will be happy... until the snow melts.
Now that would be awesome!

So, that is how the snow got into Ter Mur! I was wondering how it might snow in the underworld...The void has saturated the planets core and is seeping up through the snow!
Thank God the sky is not falling.
I'm happy to hear that you plan to improve the game atmosphere. While you're at it, maybe there could be a smoother transition between day and night, too? And different light color at dusk and dawn?
I would totally LOVE that!
Do you know what would be really cool but probably difficult implementing...Aurelius, we are aware of the issues with snow. They are the same issues that come up every year. We do it because its fun, the players love it and it takes no time at all to put in. I do apologize for these bugs but it was either snow with a few minor bugs or no snow at all.

Is changing weather patterns. Such as snow, rain, sleet, wind.
Imagine that on Tuesday - It is snowing in Trinsic. All fire related spells fizzle, cold spells do 2x damage and movement speed is slowed due to snow.
If it is raining - you cannot case fire spells, the ground is muddy and all movement slows to walking etc.
If its windy - then archers have -20% HCI etc.
It would completely change tactics and gameplay depending on weather. Now if the weather could change on a RL day to day basis and via seasons - that would be cool.
I like your suggestions (although the wether effects should be much less strong, otherwise the whole game would be very unbalanced). I always wished that weather should have a minor effect on gameplay.
