Posted the below somewhere else. But yeah, this server ingame time issue needs to be addressed:
In my region (EU) the public servers are mostly deserted at in-game nighttime. Which is primetime for gaming irl imho. First, one should have the choice in servers with different ingame times. Secondly, I don't mind the challenge, but as none of the public servers have accelerated time, one is stuck in the night for a whole gaming session. Which is simply too long and boring.
This needs to change. Think of the new players joining. DayZ does not profit from a new joining players scared off by poor server settings.
Loving the updates though, finally getting there!
