Hmm... I was wrong, the darkest time is 5.00 here

Can not even see seat-back of my own plane with gamma 1.0

I would like to have night,but I don't think it will happen for the reasons stated above.

But we could and should have weather at least wind.New maps to match the new skins would be nice too,snow and Desert maybe?

Oh,and it's great to see clouds back,thanks HTC.

Ahh, why do I bother? I can see fine in the ofline mode at night. Try it, it is easy to see with out any adjustments to gamma. The full moon and back lit guages are quite easyily read. But like I said why do I bother? The swarms of perpetual daylight lovin' base swarmin, never above 1,500 ft "players" will prevail. Ho-hum, I guess I'll tap out on this one.

night would be fine, when HT fixes it where people cant game it with gama changes to make it day. till then its a waste of time.

But, for those like I that play legitamately it would be great fun. I would love a chance to do a night bombing run, or perhaps a night fighter.

Yes to all three.

The game has developed greatly through subsequent versions in many ways all good. But it has lost out in the reality stakes vis a vis weather and night.

For those that moan about the old clouds and night there is a solution. Go play an arcade style shoot em up. Me I prefer a touch of realism.

BRING BACK THE NIGHT!!!!!!

Ah, yes. The In Real Life arguement. I love that one.

'Cause everbody knows that In Real Life P-51's fought Spitfires at 1 o'clock in the morning.

right?

No. Other than the wilde sau, the planes that fought at night were very much specialized and specifically equiped to do so. If those planes and the conditions they operated under were modeled in AH, then I myself would support a seperate night time arena.

In real life we know that La7's would easily shoot down Spitfires while winging with a F6F.

In real life we know that the 3 Gun La7's had more aircraft made and flown then another plane.

Amen, well put.
We needs the realism, as this game is hailed as
a WWII simulation MMOG not an arcade shooter by NAMCO
or something, This is to be a realistic combat experience to be savored by those whoom are allured by the thrill of
REALISTIC aviation combat (includeing weatherpaterns and
night .

DaddyAck : Since you always in favor realism you must also desire.

1. 10 Min warm ups before each flight.
2. 6 hour flights with out ever seeing an enemy plane.
3. 30 hour drives in tanks only to be suprised attacked and never get to play again.
4. Not being able to play the game for 2 weeks straight because all flights are grounded do to weather.
5. If killed on sortie, you never get to play again.

My point is making statments Like I'm always for realism is realy saying Im always for MY version of what I think is realisitic and would be fun for me.

I'm for realism if it adds value to the experience.

What we need is wind rain and wind shear...and no more easymode ditching....

Cant wait till some noob augers trying to land his 12 kill 262 mission in zero vis and driving rain in a 40 knot crosswind:aok

Actually however.....some fog would be neat...lets say a 200 ft ceiling or even ground level...

I don't think night has any place in the MA. In TOD sure, CT why not. MA fk no!

Most people that want night, want it so they can sneak around and avoid fighting. It is hard enough with weak carriers and ease of killing hangers to find long lasting battles. Bring back night and it gets even worse.

Sir,

I meant no dis respect to your product. I merely sugjest that night and weather are added into the mix. Me personally I would not mind the warmup time, though the masses would hate it. I do however as a member of the comunity wish to make my voice heard and those whoom like myself wish to experience this game at night and with weather paterns, It would be neat to fly and actually see different weather than sunny all the time. It would be nice to actually have anight bombing raid. I do not see how the re adition of night would bother EVERYBODY since the game clock is not in sync with real time thereby making night last what maby an hour? I just do not see any harm in it.

Respectfully yours,
DaddyAck
