Masok88 0 Posted July 4, 2012 Just logged into a server in the middle of the night.. scary much? All I could hear was snarling and the screen was black. Even when I turned it up it was dark! Any way round this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Legacy (DayZ) 1091 Posted July 4, 2012 Consider turning up both Gamma and Brightness. Turn up HDR as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wasn't that what all that qq'ing was about? Turning those things up don't effect my night vision anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VLG Castiel 3 Posted July 4, 2012 Moonlight in nights vary, sometimes it will be pitch black, sometimes it will be very playable. General rule, sleep during the night if you don't have chemlight or flares - They should be a common spawn, however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While chem lights are slightly less common, you still find a ton of them. But the point about the moon is pretty valid. Some nights the moon lights up the sky brilliantly. Other times, it's just better to play on a day time server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eddy.ltd@gmail.com 1 Posted July 4, 2012 Either find servers from different time zones or play at night.I played a night server properly for the first time last night in a small group and it was a blast. If you're sceptical about it you should try it out, added another layer of fun to the game for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dreamseller 0 Posted July 4, 2012 If you value your gear, don't play a night server unless you have NVG's.Flares just broadcast your exact location to everyone withing a 2km radius. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
