That is pretty mean... though, I wonder what the hell he entered into the translation engine that gave him 'stowaway'...

To answer your question Buck I think that yes, there were battles in WWII that had rain pouring down on the soldiers doing battle, but the most likely reason for there not being many maps with rain in them is because the inclusion of rain hurts FPS (frames per second), and therefore is probably not a good idea to include in your map... personaly I would love to see rain in maps as well if it didn't hurt your FPS.

Wow, I hope that makes sense. I'm really tired right now...

i wasnt meaning to be mean, im sure i would find it very hard to even find this site in whatever langauge he speaks. Yes the problems of fps dropping is what stops rainy maps.

I'm not sure rain would cause much of a performance hit.

Even on my old xp1700+, 512MB ram and geforce 4, the rain in css's aztec didnt really cause any slow down.

Aztec didn't really feel like it was raining, either.

It seems to be random (the rain in aztec) more often than not tho, it isnt raining.

I better shut up about CS:S incase it gets me banned from here ;)

With a bit of fog in, rain just might be fine on the FPS. Its a pain in the arse to add at the moment though!
