You feel it, huh?

This effect does not disturb so much, but is very very climatic...
I feel this rain on my face...

Great idea, fantastic job!

RE Swaztika's.

The problem with including swaztika's out of the box is because it's too much of a liability. Both legally, and socially. Other games like COD include them because your not playing as a nazi. (MP not withstanding). Your usually shooting nazi's. That's socially acceptable because Nazi's are accepted by most societies as emotionless inhuman bad guys who are out to do evil, and the swaztika is still considered an ominous symbol by most. (these days as FPS's go, Zombies are the new Nazi's but thats another story). When you start playing under the banner of the 3rd reich (as opposed to shooting at it), then the moral slope gets a little slippery by most standards. Ubi made the best decision by sidestepping the issue entirely.

RE SH5.

Look's pretty!

I remember an AddOn of "Medal of Honor" was shortly after the release taken off the market here in Germany because the publisher EA has left a swastika texture in the AddOn. The addon was re-released a few weeks later as modified version in Germany.

It's not that we are not allowed here in Germany to buy any games with swastikas. We can order them on an entirely private gain abroad via Amazon, Gamestop etc. if we proof we are age of 18 or older but just can't buy it in a public game store.
