#Add a game mode that has a day and night cycle

Cuz no one ever picks the night matches and if it's in a game mode it can be something u can pick on the server browser easily

#

No one picks night because it's boring

#

You get to play the game less

#

(my opinion)

Night on a lot of maps needs better lighting/sandboxes. that’s just the hard truth and is why people steer clear of it

#

There are good ones like Night frugis, night namak, night isle to some extent, etc. where its decent enough to not be stuck in night vision the whole match, but those are few and far between. Most just saw lonovo night, assumed all night maps play like that, and cba to try it again.

#

#community-bbr-media message night maps should strive to look like that, imo, to give a direct reference. It looks somewhat dark but it’s not overbearing to the point where NV/increasing screen gamma is required by to essentially play the game

Did people read the suggestion? I said add a game mode with a day and night cycle, not anything abt let's discus how night time matches are bad in ur opinion.

#

It's a mil sim game it makes sence to have such a game mode

queen garnet
#

It's not a mil sim game, you have been brainwashed. Also our discussion of night being bad is why there shouldn't be a game mode with forced night

frozen cosmos
#

Besides, night matches already just arent good

#

Well most at least

#

Hard to say if night matches are any good if they are nevere played except sometimes river and lonovo.

frozen cosmos
#

Ah yes, the literal worst examples of a night mode

#

can't see shit
flare spam

you could make 3/4 of the match have day down to dusk, because of how the lighting is on some maps, the second it turns to night time people get annoyed and leave. Night time lighting just simply put needs to be better/more engaging than it currently is. It would serve as another mode people play for a week then abandon for conq loops

#

Also if we wanted to be technical different time of day was planned on being added per the devcasts

frozen cosmos

#

yes

frozen cosmos
#

Ya true, they do be adding a different time of day too (not night for reasons already said)

gritty crest
#

Yeah, like I said, night Could work, hell maybe even could be applied to the existing modes like OP mentioned. However (and a big however) all night maps need to be fun to play on first before we get such a time of day system

#

instead of just a few with "good lighting" and everything else feels like shit for the average player to play on

frozen cosmos
#

Night could be fun and different but it just boils down to using NVG or increase gamma, otherwise good luck seeing on lonovo, where shadows are legit forced onto even with the setting turned off
And like you said, map must be good, and lonovo isnt a good map

queen garnet
#

Imagine lonovo night but the street lamps are on

#

Stuff like that might be okay

#

Dark night maps but there's lights spread across it

hushed current
#

NV would have to take ambient light into account, and right now its all just a global lighting system.
would be alot better with fires, lamps, interior lights, POI's with various sources of light. but since we don't have those we are forced into NV or high gamma to even see

Dosnt kill u

#

Idk why ppl hate night mode tho

frozen cosmos
#

Read the previous messages to learn why

inner pike
#

Literal yap to the max

#

Anyway it would be a diff game mode, if it's bad it wouldn't be selected

#

If u read the title of the thread u probably woulda noticed

frozen cosmos
inner pike
#

Cuz it seems like ur realy offended by my idea

#

So maybe u would wanna enlighten me

frozen cosmos
#

Simply put, night mode lighting is usually horrible and heavily inconsistent between maps, lonovo and river is horrible while namak and isle are really good, night can bee cheesed by literally just increasing gamma in the settings
Using NVGs is kinda neat but flares are easy to spam so you end up being blind 24/7 if you NVGs

#

Adding a day/night cycle gamemode is not reccomended especially with how night mode alone itself is

inner pike
#

Wdym by inconsistancy between maps?

#

Like some maps are lighter than others?

frozen cosmos
#

On river and lonovo are dark as shit while on isle and namak you can actually see, especially on frugis night (which isnt even night lmao)

inner pike
#

Ok

#

Let's say this all gets fixed

frozen cosmos
#

Not only that, even if you turn off shadows in the settings, maps like lonovo and river force them anyways cause fuck you

inner pike
#

Would u be against the idea

#

If all that got fixed

frozen cosmos
#

Maybe not
But given that night aint getting changed anytime soon i cannot support the suggestion simply put

#

At least right now

inner pike
#

Fair enough

#

Just my reason for having this idea woulda been cuz it would cause a change in playstyle halfway through a match and it just would be fun

frozen cosmos
#

Could be interesting

jolly sail
#

if we get a major night mode rework yes maybe. Until then it would suck ass

Suggestions channel moment BBClown

So same 4 BBClown

frozen cosmos
#

I was feeling generous that day, otherwise i wouldnt have

#

General rule of thumb: if someone gives you a good explanation don’t a redditor and go “too long I can’t read so therefore ignored xd”

#

Otherwise what’s the point of making the suggestion to begin with? It just hurts your reasoning for wanting something added if anything

gritty crest
# inner pike If all that got fixed

But to answer your question, nobody would be against it, even if its a global change and not exclusive to one mode. However night lighting needs to be improved upon first. Until then you’ll be hard pressed to find people who would give night a chance
