'Dynamic snow'.
What they said was roughly weather patterns would impact on the terrain. Snow would show up if it was snowing and fade when sunny.
What happens is a texture replacement during snow in certain areas, to simulate snow.
Advertising gimmick.
The problem arises because people read the statement and heard...
There will be snow, it will fall and accumulate and pile up in big fluffy banks of awesomeness.
Snowmen! Snowball fights!!!
They then complained about being lied to.
Expectation management.
