The street reflections and the water effects on the car look top notch, but the rain itself looks pretty bad. The physics seem a bit off. It's like the rain is heading straight into the windshield horizontally.

Many people impressed as the next gen weather effect so far from the rain but you are only one i saying its bad. Developers are still learning the how weather works and this is still in deveopment. Also many factors plays to decide the rain physics like the deveoper mentioned.

"The cloud cover and conditions you choose will dictate how much snow and rain will fall. The wind direction and speed determines where snow will settle. Then when it stops, the temperature and height of the sun governs how quickly clouds evaporate and roads dry out. We’re really striving for consistency in every detail just like we have done with everything else in the game."

"You can expect every one of those and you can expect it to change dynamically and unpredictably while you race – because we’ve designed it to be just like real weather systems. Spots of rain can become torrential downpours or transition into blizzards, quickly or slowly, and when the clouds clear up the tracks will dry out too.

So if you’re in Norway, for example, you’ll face heavier snow when you’re racing atop the mountains and much lighter snow or sleet when you descend to a lower altitude. Lots of things play into this, like elevation, wind speed and temperature. We can even adjust all the way to zero visibility conditions too – the only limit will be the need to balance things for fun and usability."

"We’ve had to learn a lot about weather systems and experiment with how it interacts with everything else in the game."
