Can we have night back?

Who knows what the future will bring ... the graphics engine does have the capabilities to bring forth stuff that we could only wish for. Forgot who it was, either HT or Pyro, but there is already support in place for search lights, and with that, there also has to be the ability to add runway lights. So ... I think that night time is on the agenda, but only hope that when it returns, it is under the best of conditions to make it worthwhile.

We just need to be patient ... which is something that a lot of people around here have very little of. Most remind me of my youngest grand-child ... I WANT IT, AND I WANT IT NOW !!!

LOL, Kev. It's all laid out there for you I think you could get it if you tried.

1. I think night makes for piss-poor gameplay.

2. It was absolutely the worst when it kept falling in US Prime Time.

3. If HTC must have it, a rare random occurance would be the best.

4. If HTC must have it, true nightfighter aircraft and their traditional targets and appropriate gameplay would be a major plus.

5. Overall, I think night makes for piss-poor gameplay.

Gameplay is different for each person.  While in your book, the gameplay is awful because you actually have to work, in my book it's a blast.

Who said it was hard ?

Where do you come up with this stuff ?

Slap, that's hipocritical.  You're calling for utter realism during night, but you'll freak out if someone changes anything during the day.

Any luck finding any of my "freak out" posts ? ... or are you trying to predict the future ?

Still think a separate night-only night-all-the-time arena would work best.

Oh, BTW, someone was mentioning tantrums?

I fail to see any temper tantrums here...I think we have all been pretty reasonable in explaining why we don't like it and why it doesn't make sense.  Anyway, like I said, if it comes back, I will most likely head to the CT at that time.

But if there are really a lot of people who like or prefer the night, surely having a separate arena with night would be a great solution.  This solution is neither unfair nor selfish.

I had ment when there was night. there were plenty of tantrums.
Same type seen about ENY, Pizza,Horde,fuelporkin etc.

Some have given reasonable explinations yes so I dont mean all

But still 1/2 hour in 13?
C'mon easily and unquestionably the "majority" of the time there wasnt night.
In all fairness that is far from an unreasonable ratio.
The ones that didnt like it had their way over 80% of the time. But that wasnt good enough. It HAD to be gone altogether in spite of the fact that alot of people enjoyed night.

  I make my fair share of arguements and complaints but I try never to argue a point that is going to make things unfair for any segment.
Im against ENY in any shape or form even though it never effects me not one bit.  Other then to deprive me from the added perk points I would be getting from killing effected planes and perks I dont care about.
  Im against it because I dont think it will work and because it isnt fair to those that only like ot fly certain planes and for a certain country. I dont see that as being fair.
 I've argued over the hordes only because I want to be in a reasonably fair fight. I dont want to be part of a horde any more then I want to be horded.
 I've argued over large/small/pizza maps Now I dont like the small maps even a little bit. But I dont want to see them go away . I just want to be able to have my fair turn at the maps I like.
And a host of other things.

To get rid of night altogether may make alot of people happy but it isnt fair to the other alot of people who want it

And giving up 1/2 hour in 13 is alot more then fair  to the ones the dont like it then the ones that do.

And getting rid of it entirely isnt fair at all

Well, Dred, what I recall is our squad night being repeatedly and routinely interrupted by night. We played from about 8 Central to maybe 11 or so on Wed.

If it had been more random rather than cyclic, it wouldn't have been such a nuisance.

As for diapers and binkies, I see who's doing the crybaby act in this thread.

It's the "nighty-nighters".

No crying here. And the non nighters have already been given their binkie...No night

All that aside then if that were the case then it should be emplemented as I described so that no nighttime would fall at the same time every day. It should be that way anyway so that every timeframe over the course of the week would get night at one point or another. then everyone would get their turn.
And perhaps have a sort of weather table telling when the sunsets/sunrises would be for each day.
Then everyone could know well in advance what they were going ot be dealing with before they got here.

For just night?
Kinda silly. Even the people who liked the night dont want it ALL the time.

1/2 hour in 13 seems  fair
Its at least reasonable

This is a GAME. Anyone who doesn't understand that is only fooling himself.

Night makes for a piss-poor game.

Is that clear enough?

And thats not footstomping?

Reminds me an awful lot of Rumpelstiltskin. http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Delphi/1298/5pescirum.html

Your speaking for yourself and some others
And it is opinion, Your opinion that some others happen to share.

And yet there are others who do not even come close to sharing your opinion  over what was piss poor and what was not.

Exactly as you are, or did you not notice that?

The difference, of course, is that we've put up with the piss-poor night play for quite a while.

And as HT essentially said when he took the night away, turnabout is fairplay.

I'm sure night will return at some point. That'll be HT's call.Certainly not yours or mine. Until then, I guess our respective opinions are just that.
