scaramoosh 162 Posted April 22, 2014 It just isn't fun, I don't care what the "hardcore" crowd says about it, I just don't find it realistic at all. For some reason now everything is pure black on the ground, even if the sky still has light in it... like where is the light source from the sky? Where are the stars? The Moon? For most of the month there is some sort of light from the moon and if not then the stars, it isn't common to have no light what so ever. Especially how you've made it function in an effort to stop gamma exploiters.. The solution is simple, just make night time more stylized like what H1Z1 has done or add the moon in for a light source to make it playable. The fact is most people hate how night functions, that is why day time only servers became popular, as soon as night comes, the server dies if players have another option. It is made worse by the fact that Torches in this game suck, they just don't function like real life, they remind me of how they used to work in games where they just lit up textures HL style.

DarkwaveDomina 1099 Posted April 22, 2014 I actually agree. I say this a lot but I used to really enjoy playing at night in the mod, as it stands now though it's just not worth it. I feel people will start to enjoy it when there are flares and such, and hotkeys for weapon flashlights, but for the time being it sucks to be stuck with that crappy torch and gas lamps.

I am not saying I like it, but I do know it's currently being worked on and thanks to the accelerated time I usually just go lie down for a while in the woods because I know it's pitchblack anyway and noone sees me and go browse the web.

MetapoliC 263 Posted April 22, 2014 OKAY... I will say what many of us think.... Miffy your every single post is totaly negative, not constructive criticism. A lot of abusive words. You always compare DayZ:SA with H1Z1. Why don't you leave this forum, the game and join the H1Z1 community... You are way too annoying. Want to play at night? Use the freaking GOOGLE for solutions: Rendering -> HDR to Low and WHOAH MAGIC! You can see everything. What about the hardcore crowd? Are they too tuff for you and that's why you are not listening to them or what? It just doesn't makes sence. Seriously man every single post is a totaly abusive behavior. You are wasting your time and your health with this game. Please leave this community Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkwaveDomina 1099 Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) I am not saying I like it, but I do know it's currently being worked on and thanks to the accelerated time I usually just go lie down for a while in the woods because I know it's pitchblack anyway and noone sees me and go browse the web.Yeah I know it's being worked on, I just really think the rate at which people immediately abandon a server will drop when we have the same stuff we had in the mod (barring NVGs and such). I used to run in to quite a lot of players on night servers in those days, and while it was common, they didn't all just crank the gamma up like they do now.

The servers only say "net msg". Or am I missing out on some servers? Waiting for the new update to go live. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ref 19 Posted April 22, 2014 Today we went to an apartment block in Berezino and set up a gas lamp on the roof. We had many people come join our party (one of them got a bit out of hand and had to be shot sadly; another thought he was infected with the virus and jumped off the roof). It was fantastic. Sadly the servers reset before morning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
