I'll go REAL slow for ya ... follow the bold.

You said ...

"Then you will see those 10% who's names appear over and over who always whine that their way should be followed. They are very easy to spot.

Taaaa Daaaaa! Slapshot steps up as one of the magnificient 10%. See what I mean? That sure didn't take long. MUAHAHAHAHAHA."

and then I said ...

"Please show me where I have ever whined that "my way" should be followed."

and then you said ...

"LOL, Did I ever say you? It seems you responded as one of the 10% without my ever mentioning your name. Doh!"

Hope it all works out for ya ... I have heard that recovery from a lobotomy is a long process.

As long as people can adjust gamma nite makes no sense.
It would be like giving us the option to turn of the trees. All or none.

If HT decides it's best for gameplay--so be it --as long as they can stop the gamers from doing their thing.

If they wanna bring back the old days I vote for buffs wither lazer bombs and guns.--that was fun.

Go into offline mode. Under setup->arena settings you can change the time of day and change the day cycle. Seeing night in offline mode is exactly like seeing night in online mode since there are about the same number of people in the arena.

The new clouds are really really pretty at night.

LOL ... no one could be as stupid as you are ... no pretending there ... it's like a blinking neon sign.

Since noone else did it, I did a search for threads on nighttime.  You get a HUGE list, so here is a synopsis:  Pretty much there were a select few who liked it, but the majority hated it.  The last link there is a post by NathBDP which sums it up:  "I logged on last night, and we had 120 guys, night set in shortly after and we went down below 60".  

Thats every night guys, EVERY NIGHT.  That hour sets in, and over half the MA logs.  Yah, you are entitled to your 15 dollar say, but if half the people don't want to play when the MA is in nighttime, I got bad news for ya... HTC will soon remove it.  And look what happened... they removed it  :aok

don't think people are asking for an HOUR LONG night time.

I liked night , just did not like it for that long a time, but back then  when people logged in , after they got home from work and had a limited number of hours to fly, they usually got nailed with an HOUR of NIGHT TIME.

so yes one could easily see why so many complained about it.

but then again, not everyone plays in the evening, and this sim is open 24/7 unless SKUZZY trips over the cord.

so what is wrong with having a 10 / 15 or 20 to 30 minute night time? geez why is it not possible to satisfy both sides of the arguement for a change? a little night here alot of day there and everyone be happy campers.

and as always only what 10 to 20 % of the player base even reads and responds to the boards here, so you can only say the majority of the ones posting a reply on the boards hated it. So why not use the polls  we use to see in AH? when we logged in to the arena or logged into the game?


yes they removed it, but who's to say they will not bring it back? not anyone of us, that determination lays soley in the hands of HTC

All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC

If I am not mistaken, The tunisa map in the CT this week has a night time in it!!  I started playing last night and when I loged in the sky was dark, just defore the dawn broke.  It was an awesomely rendered portrayal of a sunrise, and may I ad quite pleasant to fly in.

I would like the return of not only night but the mist also, it looked fuggin awesome.
A 15/30 min night followed by a sunrise with mist which gradually 'burns' off would be great.
Fed up of almost perfect 'Summer' days.
I remember when HT tried the mist out in the MA, the majority liked it (increased frames also), no idea why it hasn't returned.
