Night Time
« on: August 12, 2005, 01:56:49 PM »
Skuzzy/HTC...

Can we please bring back the true Night Time.  This is definitly the most realistic Flight Sim on the internet, however, to achieve true realism I belive (I know I'm going to get flamed from many of the furballers out there) you need to put the night time back in.  So many missions were flown at night, and yes, it does make it harder to find and hit and kill the enemy.  That was the point of flying at night.

There was a post the other day asking about headlights on GVs and running lights on the aircraft.  I think that would be great as long as they're controlable (on/off).

So how about it?

I loved night time bomb runs and night time looks better somehow in AH2, offline that is. I think it's a little brighter. And the new flame effects and explosions would be great at night.

i always like the night spells in ah..
some point for and against.
1 it was never long enough for a serious attack in night bombers..
2 many people left the arena when darkness fell..prob the reason htc gave into the demand for its removal

my thoughtds on a remedy:
dont have the whole arena plunged into darkness..have nght time as regional phenomena..i know its not realistic but night time never has been in ah ..also have short icon for bombers 1.5k or so

Leave the true realism for the CT and TOD!

yes, it does make it harder to find and hit and kill the enemy.  That was the point of flying at night.


That doesn't do a thing for the fun per dollar ratio in my game :(
As far as I'm concerned they can make it high noon all the time in the MA! and make the clipboard block the sun, it would in real life :)

And I would like to know why everytime one of you suspects that someone may not agree with you, he is emedietly labeled a furballer? (as if thats a bad thing).  I don't like night, don't like fighting buildings,  Don't like mindless furballs, and don't like fighting trees.  Could you please find an apropriate label for me?  Thank you in advance.

I'd have to say you're a phun-seeker as opposed to a phun-sucker which is what I see all these "let's make the MA more realistic"  types to be. They seem to want to suck the fun out of the game for everyone else :(

Can we have Santa's Slay, the Easter Bunny, The BatMobile and F16s?

This question has been asked, oh heck I don't have that many fingers. Anyways, we are more likely to see the above long before we get true night back. That what I get from the complete silence from HTC on this subject.

OK, Yes it has been brought up many, many times.  Still I wouldn't mind seeing it back in the MA.

As for Santa, not a bad idea....the F-16 is a lil far fetched though...:):)

One of Mipoikel's screenshots from a recent snapshot... (that's the cloud layer down there)



Night time is a bit different now than it was in AH1 (better graphics, light effects). However, I don't think it would work in the MA anymore. But in the CT, scenarios and maybe in TOD it could be fun for a change.

Navcad, you can do night stuff in H2H, and you can do this without ruining the game for the rest of us.

I'm a furballer, and I'm here to flame this thread because it's still a bad idea. Do a search; putting one of these "please screw all the other guys who pay to play and add night so we can hide" threads up every few months isn't going to change much.

This isn't the Realism Simulation arena. This the loose, free form style of gameplay arena. Ask for it in ToD.
