Long Day -> short night!

[Prof. Awesome 3]

Aloha,

i was thinink about the Day and Night feature of DayZ, if u play in Germany and its dark, it will be dark on the Server,too. So far so good!

The thing about playing at Night is imho, that no one wants to play at "night"! What i mean is, what do people do if the server they joined is dark? They Avoid it,

lets face it, almost everyone i talked with and everything i read about is the either ...

...change to server in a other Country with light!

or

...they put the Gamma and the brightness to the max(which is imho not how it supposed to be played, its kinda...."cheating")

Very less people use their flashlight or flares, the basicly dont want to play at night!

And here comes my suggestion:

...wouldnt it be cool if day and night change multiply times while iam playing? For example (and thats just a number i didnt thought that through) u have 2 Hours Day and then it will be dark for like...what 30 minutes? And then back to sunshine!

Cuz then u would have to hide, or use ur light sources! Cuz u want/cant change the Sever to avoid the dark! Of course u can still bright the shit up with ur gamma, but would keep playing on one server!

And it would be scary to see the sun go down, and u would be happy to see they sun rising again!

I dont know just a Idea, flame it to death if u dont like it! :D

sry for my medium english skills iam German! :/

A quick day night cycle would be amazing

Kind of like minecraft, as dusk aproaches you know it's time to hunker in for the night, build defenses, ect..... Or if your kitted out ... Go on the hunt....

At the moment it's either day for your whole sessions or night....lame.

Time cycle is inherent to ARMA2 and cannot easily be modified. This has been covered many times.

I'd actually play at night if I could go through a full day/night cycle within one few-hour play session. I don't see myself leaving a server just because night is falling. But I play in the evening after work/dinner and I'm not gonna play this game at night, all the time, either. It's not scary after a while, it's just tedious.

Well shit.
