Better Night Gameplay

[flower (DayZ) 12]

So as the game stands night gameplay is not worth it. Here's why

Flashlights need an overhaul - Check

M203 Flares don't last long enough - Check

Road Flares blinds the crap out of you - Check

Glow sticks get stuck in unsual places and don't really serve any purpose other than getting shot at - Check

Nvg's unbalance the night gameplay cause of the above and can never be balanced - Check

So what could really improve upon night gameplay should be

Flashlights should be a mulitpurpose one were you can adjust the brightness and range. They should have an option to function as a glowstick where one could either mount it on their backpack/shoulder as well as adjust the brightness levels. This would be more easier on your backpack with having the need to find roadflares or glowsticks.

M203 Flares should last longer and should be more slots in your backpack to store/equip them. They should be more easier to find too.

Thoughts?

Hmmm. Flashlights definitely need an overhaul. They seem fairly buggy to me. In some circumstances I can use them to look through buildings... I don't like playing on pitch-black servers without night vision. Full moon is fine though.
