It would be fun if there were lights on the pillars like this in night mode. Who agrees?

[balmy tree]

Krafton obviously said not fun

They didn't work on the dynamic lights and it shows in the footage

[oblique mist]

Yes you are right

[gleaming berry]

I just said before the update that they will just slap a jpg there and nothing with low brightness 🌚

[oblique mist]

[royal nest]

Way we need that, night mode already look blueish and bright no need of extra lighting.

[royal nest]

Next time we need day and night mode combination

[cinder kayak]

If the night mode was dark enough. Everyone pretty much anticipated this but they just said NOPE not today.

[oblique mist]

@cinder kayak Yes, you are right, it would have been fun if there was darkness in the night mood and along with it there was lighting on the pillars etc.

[royal nest]

Doesn't look like a night mode

[zealous fox]

They said they will monitor it after the update

[oblique mist]

@royal nest Yes it's like Dynamic Weather just a little bit darker increase

[velvet light]

That’s something else sadly

[zealous fox]

What?

[velvet light]

Thats about how often you’ll get the night mode in akinta

[royal nest]

On this picture very cartoonish
Now I understand why they don't speak about other maps

On Troi I can't even imagine such a stunt

[balmy tree]

There's already dissatisfaction on Twitter

Don't know why they didn't implement it on Troi instead

it's a better map and had indirect lighting and neon lined surfaces

it would look fabulous imo

As usual Krafton just clueless about what they're doing

[toxic island]

well considering PC PUBG Vikendi's night mode, it looks fine, cuz its bright because of the moon

If u guys were expecting a super hardcore night mode that u cant see anything, maybe u r in wrong game

[balmy tree]

On Vikendi it makes sense due to the Northern lights

[brittle badger]

Fr

[balmy tree]

dude it looks so half baked, look at the street lights and the shadows

[balmy tree]

night modes on other maps especially Erangel is very dark

What's the point in doing a separate mode and call it as "night mode" when it doesn't even look that much different to the overcast weather on that map

[toxic island]

its just a theme mode

[balmy tree]

yeah what's the theme again

[toxic island]

erangel doesnt have night mode man it is dusk

[balmy tree]

well it used to

I don't think anyone requested this sort of "night mode"

[toxic island]

then what they expected them? a super realistic hardcore night mode like in tarkov?

[balmy tree]

Nope something akin to that of Pubg's old night mode

Where night goggles and flash hiders were a thing

[toxic island]

lol that was in pubgm not pubg

which was deleted almost 3 years ago

[balmy tree]

sorry that was meant to be Pubgm

[balmy tree]

anyways that's the issue, this is not night mode bro, they should have gone with Troi map at least

Akinta is already a dull map with no indirect light sources

[toxic island]

I agree that night mode was realistic, but I bet no one except manias were playing that mode

and PUBG Studios already attempted super realistic night mode by Hardcore BR in 2021 in PC PUBG

but it was too heavy, so players didnt play this mode after a while

So this level of brightness is a compromise

[balmy tree]

I don't know man this feels very lazy and unrealistic at the same time, how's this gonna impact the gameplay since it's barely any different to the overcast weather

On Vikendi it's beautiful, I mean look at how it looks on Akinta they didn't even care to add in any ambient effects by the looks like a fog that appears dynamically or cloud movement

[toxic island]

well I have said it again and again, it is result of compromise

[balmy tree]

okay

[royal nest]

In game that would look worse
They've wasted the potential of big title like night mode
It's another cosmetic update like Akinta expansion
Also they didn't call it "night mode (beta)", I don't see any promotional value if they don't show interest to improve it in future updates & distribute for other maps

[royal nest]

That wasn't about other maps but strictly about Akinta & the proportion between day, "night" & rainy evening matches

[toxic island]

Players (especially in mobile FPS games) have a strong tendency not to play a map or mode if they r unable to spot enemies well,
and this has already been proven in PC PUBG(HardcoreBR) and PUBGm(Erangel's night mode), and even in NSM(Alpha Troi)

So as I said before, that brightness is result of compromise between Gameplay and Realistic experience

[royal nest]

I expected attachments & customisation for spotting the enemies
With such kind of updates NSM will continue to decline
They're aspiring only to cover the decline of real players with extreme modes & 250 x 250 island but not to bring any sensible solution or content worth of promotion

[cinder kayak]

Nothing super hardcore just some refreshing content to enjoy.

It doesn't need to be super hardcore like Tarkov just a dark night mode with flashlights and some night vision goggles would have been just as cool imo

I still stand that it should have been a little more dark than what it is.

[royal nest]

The distant locations should look grayish
And the darkness should overshadow blues
Otherwise it's simply not a night mode but something else sold in the name of big title

And considering rotation between Akinta themes it's still not problematic to find the right balance with customisations

[brittle badger]

On one hand, you got those in the community complaining night mode aint dark enough,
and on the other you got those complaining theres not enough light.

NS community in a nutshell.

[cinder kayak]

Biggest problem of the ns community.

Mostly why the game failed.

the opinions are so divided the devs find it hard to find the balance.

In order to find the balance they disappoint both

[balmy tree]

I don't find anyone complaining that there's not much light in night mode

[winged nexus]

Maybe in high graphics
They will be illuminated but not like that

[balmy tree]

that's on high graphics, you can see the soft shadows in the footage

anyways like any other mode they will get rid of it by the next update

[brittle badger]

Nothing but Negative Nancy's,
istg.

This night mode is a great start for a baseline to work from.

Tweaks and improvements can still
be made from here on out.

Yall needa stop getting your panties
in a twist. Stop taking every update as a personal attack, and being offended by everything.

"dArk moDe iSnT dArK eNouGh, kRafTon hAtes fUN!"

" sTreEt liGhTs aReNt liGht eNouGh, wE nEeD moRe liGht iN dArK mOde, kRafTon dOesNt liSteN to uS"

[balmy tree]

spoken like a true shill bruh

[brittle badger]

No ones even tried Night Mode yet,
and already everyones throwing a fit.

[royal nest]

Most of the target audience will never try it in NS

The rest will quit next year

[brittle badger]

See what i mean by Negative Nancy?

[velvet light]

[prisma cave]

Past experiences

[royal nest]

You are wrong
Night mode is invented by NS devs in 2024
We are even a couple of months ahead of our time

It's too advanced for our vision, we should let newbies to make this game popular

[prisma cave]

Advanced

It has been 2yrs since launch of game

Modes like dynamic weather day night mode should come as default

If we have to keep requesting every single thing than pubg by tencent is more better

[velvet light]

[balmy tree]

[rain sorrel]

the textures of buildings, ground, and asphalt are too bright for the night. if you darken them it will look more realistic

[hasty socket]

I like this lights.

[royal nest]

Which game is this?

[royal nest]

The Division Resurgence
It's a mobile game which has proper night mode, snow weather & lighting even in Beta stage

I mean this game hadn't even launch yet but has those features as default

Also utility shield

[neon eagle]

Guys I think they must create this !

Would be great and helpful for the night mode

[royal nest]

Read old threads
They've already missed the opportunity to introduce everything in time

Despite delivering the shortest patch notes they still have courage to keep delaying old files

[royal nest]

new state have lighting but just half baked

they don't reflect on car

its Will cool if light can be seen on plane

or any distance

[toxic island]

it has dynamic spotlight

same as PC

but only in buildings

[royal nest]

but not on street

if dynamic spotlight apply on street Will cost a performance?

[toxic island]

maybe

and after erangel devs dont use it on map anymore

[balmy tree]

They totally dropped it in 4x4 maps

[royal nest]

erangel is a nostalgia map

[royal nest]

that shouldn't be an issue for 2024
If it's I would ask for how old devices this game is made

even indie games doing much better job

may be for Africa but we don't have African server

I think even PUBG Lite Mobile is still available

[royal nest]

such huge gap between indie game and huge game

but with full a cheaters

Indian people still stand on pubgm lite

[toxic island]

dynamic spotlight could be an issue

even in 2024

[royal nest]

bad implementation?

[royal nest]

The Division Resurgence should set a benchmark
Have heard that it'll release this year
