When does it go to night?

Recommended Posts

Im in Ohio, which is GMT - 4:00, so can someone tell me or link me to how to figure out to get a daylight server when I can't play till like 8:00pm at night? Thanks.

[edit] not "how" to get to one, but what GMT to shoot for.

Like they said above, get DayZ Commander. Its a game launcher that shows better and more information about servers and even has filters. It displays the times of all servers and you can filter by day and night, but sometimes youll find one at 5am and still black, but considered day. Its really helpful and can update both DayZ and arma. Look into it if you have time.

dayZ commander still even when scan/filter for daylite servers will put you into full dark games..

its def. wacky, but at least you can get a better chance of finding dark/light servers.

The times unfortunately are sometimes broken in DAYZ commander, I just favorite the server with the best ping and have a hand written list beside me to record their GMT last I played there. The DAYZ servers sometimes forget to update their GMT +/- info.

If you don't want to download dayz commander:

Great Britain is 5 hours ahead of GMT-5 so it's currently 1:40am in New Jersey while it's 6:40am in GB

With Russia, if it's night out for you, it's definitely day for them.

You can also just google "what time is it in (enter country here)" If it's persay 530am in Luxembourg, but you don't know when the sun rises there (that's when it turns daytime for the server), you can google the sunrise time for Luxembourg. Beware of lag though when playing in other country's servers

Beware though, some servers have inverted time for us people who work and can't play during the day. I also find many many US servers that are daytime during night though. Just luck of the draw.

What people are not telling you is that DayZ commander does not tell you THE time but it tells you A time, 9/10 servers you see on there have the wrong time up.

exactly..

and take into account the load times and its an annoying "feature"..

Dayz Cmder needs to get that sorted.

show us the ACTUAL time in game atm. or else scanning for server time is a total crap shoot.
