Tornadoes in videogames

Not really a tornado but Mad Max during those storm sections were hell on earth.
I think Just Cause 4 has tornadoes.

Twister was a fantastic movie.

Yes, the growling tornado, or the bad guys being so stereotypical bad and one dimensional that they drive in a perfect line of black vans like they're protecting the president, or the retarded relationship between what's her name and Bill Paxton.

Yeah it was a pretty fun campy movie, I loved it.

oh fuck, does anybody remember an old PS2 game where you drove 18 wheelers across different states, and there was a level that involved a tornado, I think it took place in Texas, I'm not really sure. Scared the living shit out of me when I was a kid.

How about an adventure game as a weather-researcher in a fantasy world. The weather lately has been getting crazy and you want to find out why.
A big part would be traveling and chasing after storms of all sorts.

>Especially if it was open world mmo style
actually I was thinking it would be cooler in a classic MMO where you'd have everyone running away from it except for the one faggot and his group trying to get a Tear of Karana quest item.

I'm not saying you can't enjoy it but it does something I hate in these 90's movies. The main guy is already going up against a fucking tornado, it doesn't need a bad guy to somehow up the ante. It was also obvious from the very start that they'd get back together, wasting Philip Seymour Hoffman as the comic relief just for the sake of....
I basically guessed most of the lines that were going to be said because of how paint by numbers it was.

Tornado/Hurricane Druid was my favorite.

Mate you are talking a kids movie about a big bad tornado way too seriously. I watched Twister when I was a child and fucking loved it, haven't seen it in years though to be honest, if I rewatched now I'd probably notice some retarded stuff too. But I don't care. The film wasn't trying to be some great art piece, it was just trying to be a fun over the top disaster movie. Dante's Peak was another kino 90's disaster movie that I loved. Why did the 90's have so many disaster movies and then they completely dried up and we rarely get stuff like that anymore that doesn't look like a sy-fy original CGI fest?

I wish games had hazardous weather in general. Blowouts and psi-storms in Call of Chernobyl really add to the atmosphere. There's that Gmod Storm chasers game mode but cool gamemodes are dead in Gmod.

It wasn't meant for kids, it was just written poorly so it seemed like it was. I don't hate it, it's very much a product of its time, but it really doesn't stand the test of time.
Either way, my guess is disaster movies tend to crop up whenever climate issues become common in the popular discourse. The 90's had a lot of talks on climate change and it's consequences so we got disaster movies that focused on natural occurrences and how they'd get worse if there weren't any actions taken.

Think of how progression could work. You would start off with a shitty van with bad cameras, chase tornadoes down and get as close as you can without getting killed by debris to get some good footage. You wouldnt be able to afford any actual gear to scientifically study these storms for a long while. So you would need to get good enough footage for local news stations to buy it off you. You go to a business to buy a camera and you can see your footage being played on a newscast on a display television.

Eventually you would have enough money to first buy a tank of a stormchasing vehicle, you would have top of the line audio equipment, technology to get accurate readings of the storm systems themself. And if there was a pvp aspect, you would have amazing targeted emp tech, spike strips, etc.

This game would only be cool in VR. I have always had a major fear of tornadoes and the thought of getting to stare one in the face and play chicken is an exciting thought.

Based.

Because they fuckin suck

Because it was just a fad born of the 90s CG "revolution" in films. There was a previous disaster film fad in the 70s too. They churned them out like nothing else. People got bored of them so they stopped. 20 years later in the 90s they did the same thing again. Once again people got bored of them.

Failed Stormchaser fag here.

Tornado Jockey was a banger of a PC game back in the 2000s. You can control a tornado and get extra powers if you wanted and destroy literally fucking everything in your sight. It was based as fuck and I loved everything about it.

Who was in the wrong here?

I've never seen a lot of tornadoes in games, only ones that come to mind are Wind Waker and Life is Strange

There was a hurricane as a bossfight in Voodoo Vince
