I was actually intending to bandit it up with some friends so yeah; daytime is nice for sniping, etc. but I wasn't aware of that Adelaide server.. thanks for alerting me on that. I'll probably get this soon then =).

I haven't got DayZ yet even though I've spent hours watching streams because I simply will never experience daytime (maybe for 20minutes a week) because of the real time day/night cycles. I play oceanic and I can't switch to Seattle or something like the US players do because my ping will be unplayable. I only have time to play this game from around 9pm onwards. Surely a decent suggestion is that either we have compact day/night cycles... or reverse day/night cycles so daylight is during prime gaming hours. I want to experience the night and I'm sure it's fun but I also want to play during daylight. I haven't seen Rocket say anywhere that he's going to change the status quo (If I'm wrong please link proof to me as I will be excited) and it's probably the reason I'm not playing right now. I don't want to play a game that is 100% night-time.. I'm sure other players agree. I'm making this thread to see if there's any support and I don't see how it would be unrealistic that day/night cycles are reversed to make daylight during how prime gaming hours. I mean; it's an alternate reality.. it doesn't need to be matched with our real life day and night. Not to mention that the character doesn't have to sleep, use the toilet, etc. I think this wouldn't break the realism.. players would still experience night-time.. just not when they get back from work (The only time to play for a lot of people). Alternatively you could have a compacted day/night cycle which is fair to everyone but detracts from realism some more.
