Does weather or time of day affect combat in XCOM:EU

xcom-enemy-unknown

Does weather affect the combat at all in XCOM: Enemy Unknown? For example, does heavy rain reduce visibility, movement or aiming?

Does it make any difference if the mission is at day or at night?

Best Answer

When you aim at a target, you can click "More info" to get a detailed breakdown of what modifiers affect your chance to hit the target. There is never a night/day/weather modifier to be seen.

Checking movement and visibility for hidden modifiers is more tricky, but I've not seen any evidence of that either, so I'd say no, there are no such modifiers.
