I know, Kev.

They say we shouldn't have night if we can see easily. Yet, they say in the daytime, we shouldn't have any weather conditions OR clouds.

Bunch of hypocritical spoiled whiners.

Who said that?

You should note, of course, that when the weather was truly bad the missions in WW2 were cancelled.

For example, the Battle of the Bulge had weather that prevented the Allies from doing much flying from 19 until 23 December.

It simply highlights the fact that these are primarily DAY VFR fighters and bombers. A fact which many of you can't seem to grasp or perhaps have no concept of what that means.

Do you want planes to be visible or not? Make up your mind.

I am sick of vulchfests and the whole daytime routine. I just upped at a base that was under attack and while the rooks were fighting back, it was hopeless. You call that righteous? You call that fair play? A little night time would prevent these things. It puts more emphasis on strategy and fair play. It allows a short amount of time to regroup. I wasn't flying 20 minutes, but I died 3 times. I logged......and now I am wondering if this is really worth the time and trouble. My squad keeps me alive, but this "game" is growing long on the tooth. My $15.00 isn't much in the whole picture, but it is $15.00. That is more money that I can spend elsewhere!

While I have been drinking the Cutthroat ale and fondling the sheep, my participation here is minimal. Now I have to make a decision......after I sleep it off. The future of HTC looks good, but my participation and level of enjoyment looks dim.

Night won't fix my feelings and level of participation, but I find that this is becoming more "political" as time goes on. And IMHO, that sucks!

You don't like being vultched, so you want everyone to wear blindfolds.

this thread has deteriated past any reason.

i give up.

make this game more realistic, or lose customers through boredom id the key i think.

on the otherhand, make the game more realistic, and lose customers.

Days when all of Europe on the Baltic map is so socked in you can't takeoff and we all go drink beer in the O-Club?

Typhoon days on the Mindy map where we all spend the day in bomb shelters?

Stuff like that would be soooooooooooo kewl.

They could probably do work on the servers on those days an no one would notice too.

That mean we get supercells and tornadoes in OzKansas?

No.....blindfolds only restrict vision. So does restricting the night. That is a vision and a feature that I like, personally. Want to know how often I log because of boredom? 95%. I only fly 3 or 4 times a week now and it's because I hate what I see. Certainly my skill level has something to do with that, but I would be happy to fly and challenge anyone here....except Leviathon! I will not challenge another Cutthroat.....it's policy. But on even ground and in an even plane and altitude, I might get the victory! I am not a bad pilot, and I enjoy a 1 vs 1.

That said, I am bored to tears. It's harder to kill bases, my guns appear to miss a lot, and I don't have a reason to log on by myself to fly with the rooks because AH2 isn't as cool as AH1. Cooler bases, yes, graphics-well that helps, but it's less satisfying.

I fly scenarios, but they offer variety and anxiety! Something the MA seriously lacks. Maybe you have never flown in a scenario? Other than Squad night, that is my favorite thing to do these days. The whiners have made this game less desirable. Hence, I am selective in when I fly too, and not because of the night! I just believe more folks would support the night as a needed "enhancement".

Good obsevation. I noticed the same thing.

when I first started playing night looked like that for me till I noticed my monitor settings were off. By JUST a little bit and I do mean a little.

But event hen the moon never looked even remotely close to being that dark

OK here is my last thought on the Night time issue.
I hate it.
Why...because every time i logged on for the few hours i had each evening it was always frikin night time!/
I could live with it if it occured randomly. Not the same time every evening GMT.
BTW WWll online would see me WAY more than it doeas already if it werent night time every time i log on. if i lived in europ it would be fine.

Now that arguement makes sence.

Yea it should be more random so it doesnt take place at the same time each night

But really I think this debate has pretty much run its course for the time being
