FreddyLuxe 0 Posted May 30, 2016 Hi, I failed to find a proper, recent thread that talks about this specific subject. A shorter day/night cycle, about 4 to 6 hours, without server restart... is it something that can be in the game? I do think this is something most people would like to have. Being able to play a few hours and have the chance to play both day, night without restarts. Preparing for the night during the day, then surviving the dangers of the night. Making a fire. Currently, if you can only play at the same time of the day every day, you will always play Day or Night but never both. And if it happens you are lucky and can play both, you get server restart. That is the most annoying thing ever. I mean, server restart completely put you out of the game. If you felt like you were in this world, trying to survive and then, what? You are disconnected and have to re-connect to the server to continue? I know it is Alpha or whatever I do understand that. I just want to know if this feature will be in the final game. If it is okay to wait for a proper short day/night cycle without restart, or is it just a dream that will never come true? I play every survival games out there and none of them has to restart to be able to have a proper day/night cycle. I would like to understand why DayZ is like that? I would like to know what you guys think about it, and if it is possible to have it in the game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stinkenheim 249 Posted May 30, 2016 Servers all ready have the option of accelerated time. If there is an x after the server time it is accelerated e.g. 15.32x Servers also have the option currently to have resets up to every 12 hours, I'm sure on a previous exp patch they trialled 24hr restarts but the lag got pretty bad. It will happen though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
