Both of these things are missed by most.  Even the lil towns that we would fight over like on Festers map.  

Now we have nothing but trees....and no sheep in sight.

The smooth soft pastures that once hid Goons are now long gone.

Please bring these back into the game... it added excitement to the game.

BTW we miss the squid and the foo fighters, the UFO's. All the hidden things that made it enjoyable.

Please reconsider and bring these back.  Please.

Respectfully,

Would love to see this.


Then again, I'd love to be able to pay to fly (damn bars)

Isn't this true also for the CT maps?

Tank town dosn't exist simply because we do not have an object that will function like the old one did.

Im currently working on the object editor that will alow tank town type items to be constructed again by players. It will also import .x files so players can make there own objects and complete 3d tiles.

Nite time was waste of time  and programming. most didnt like it
and gamed it with gama changes to make it day time, or simply logged off for an hour.

i LOVED night time.

the game is 50% worse without it.

you want realism or you want easy kills?

surely you can program a gamma fix to stop the dweebs.

maybe as night time closes but discrete daisies and other poncey flowers on peoples planes so any gamma potatos can see how pathetic they are.

No to night time.
Night time was log time for a huge part of the paying customer base.

I agree, no full night time, but bring tank town back whenever the new object/editor is finished.

Daytime turns me off, and I don't mean maybe

Nine-to-five ain't taking me where I'm bound

When it's done, I run out to see my baby

We get groovin' when the sun goes down


I thank the Lord for the night time

To forget the day

A day of up-, uptight time

Baby, chase it away

I get relaxation

It's a time to groove

I thank the Lord for the night time

I thank the Lord for you


I'll talk about plans now, baby, I got plenty

Nothing ever seems turn out the way it should

Talk about money, girl, I ain't got any

Seems like just one time I'm feelin' good


I thank the Lord for the night time

To forget the day

A day of up-, uptight time

Baby, chase it away

I get relaxation

It's a time to groove

I thank the Lord for the night time

I thank the Lord for you

Every member of my squad laments the removal of night from the MA.  

We've had many discussions during operations.  10 out of 10 active members are left with the impression that nighttime was removed to appease a vocal minority on the boards who would prefer high-noon furballing.  That may be somewhat simplified but it fits in one sentance and describes the squad member's view of the situation.  This sim is so much more than an AW-style fighter town.  

So, we have 10 votes here for the revival of night in the MA.

Yup find a way of disabling the gamma adjustment and bring it back.
A nice furball with night/intruder skins would be awesome.

to all you guys who want nighttime back:
How did you guys fly and fight in complete darkness? (without gamma adjusting)

All I remember is that full night time use to last about 20-25 mins and there use to be about a 75% player drop.

Night Rocks! Try it offline it really looks fantastic. If people choose to just turn their gamma up and therby they dont have to deal with it well that sounds good to me. I just remembered some fun 110 NOE raids pre-dawn that were out of this world in terms of fun by the guys in the mission. SomeOne should post a pic off the night in offline. I would but dont know how
