Servers not showing Timezones causing EXTREME load times

Recommended Posts

So I've been using the Virginia servers for a while and I've really appreciated that they show a difficulty level and a timezone in their server names. However when I log in today I see that it and almost all other servers aren't stating their timezone. I can't seem to find a website or thread anywhere listing the timezones either, and can't find a website for the people hosting the Virginia servers.

WHY? Why is no one stating their timezones? Now that I can't find a timezone listed anywhere, I'm noticing huge load times for all the games I'm joining.

This huge load time is because there are tons of people repeatedly joining and leaving most of the servers trying to find one in the timezone they are looking for.

For servers that are night there are people constantly joining, slow loading, then leaving right away, only for someone else to start joining after.

The same goes for anyone looking for a night server. If they join a day server they are going to leave right away.

Does anyone know why no one is listing server timezones? This is only hurting the game by increasing wait times for EVERYONE....

It's a shame most people are scared of night, I find it the most fun way to play the game, much more intense.

Scared of nights ?

If nights weren't looking like a fucking black and grey modern art mess, the problem would not exist.

You can't blame people to be sick of playing in a ridiculous level of pitch blackness.

I'm not scared of night at all, in fact i think it would be even easier to get around undetected at night than in day time. The problem is that night time right now is so damn dark that 99% of the time you can't see your own gun in front of your face. It's not scary at all, it's just unplayable. And don't start with that "use flares or chemlights" because that is not a proper solution to broken nights.

You're right. Using flashlights and other means of "non-darkness" isn't a proper solution to darkness.

It is not very fun to not see anything at all, or even worse to be put at a disadvantage because another player has higher brightness and gamma settings. There's not much of an athmosphere if you are going to up those to ridiculous levels either, so then it's just as good to enter a daytime server.

I will only start to play when it's nighttime if it's made lighter so you can actually see something, or if I find nightvision googles.
