Flares once we get night reinstalled

[WWhiskey]

Night will never happen in the main arena...again.

except maybe christmas!

If we get flares and infantry, then we better get a mash unit and Hot nurses to treat our burns. 

I just hope DrDeath doesnt treat me.   

[Nemisis]

I lol'd .

Well maby not infantry, but you can't say that a tank would drive on it's own, and that there wouldn't be an emergency kit in a jeep or a halftrack.

You know what MOST WW2 airplanes did when it got dark outside?

Thats right big guy....they went to SLEEP!

Leave night out of the game, and while your at it, speed up dawn and dusk to about salvo 0.5 

Though I would prefer it be brought back I've already made my arguments on the issue too many times already to bother doing it again.

But I'd had to bet anything valuable on your statement.  

Google dude. Google  

Just a few

"the first night bombing attack in the history of U.S. carrier aviation was carried out by VT-10 from the Enterprise with 12 radar equipped TBF-1C's. The attack, delivered at low level, scored several direct hits on ships in the harbor. In a brief enemy air attack on the same night, Intrepid was hit by an aerial torpedo. For the campaign, night fighter detachments of VF(N)-76 and VF(N)-101 (assigned F6F-3's and F4U-2's equipped with AIA radar) were assigned to five carriers and, while not widely used, were on occasion vectored against enemy night raiders"

Another idea to put a good laugh in the forums!

Yeager just got powned.

[Motherland]

Irrelevance

Those are all (or the vast majority are) specially designed night time aircraft, of which we have none.

Yeager just got powned.

No, and it's not 'powned'.

[Yeager]

gimme a break dred.  When night fighters come into the game you can turn the lights off.  Until then just forget it.  Alas, of the hundreds of thousands of combat aircraft built during the war "MOST" were not equipped to fly at night.  By "most" I mean damned near ALL.

Thanks

Why does everyone seem to hate realism and diversity ?

because it will kill the game. The more realistic it become the more players will quit due to it being more like work to fly and fight than it is fun. HTC is in business to make money, not a realistic simulation.

[RipChord929]

While I would agree that nightfighters should come with the darkness...
We do have some of the airframes that were modified for that work, and did it well!!!
110s, JU88s, A20s, Avengers, Hellcats

Not all planes that engaged in combat at night were "made for, or modified for it" either...
Wildesau?  Day fighters with pilots who had boatloads of guts!!! Of course they would
need ground direction to make it more realistic... Being as our game radar works a bit like
Wurzburg or Freya, (or combo of the two)... It could be worked out!!!

Lanks with Oboe, and Window, and the other goodies that Bomber Command whipped up!!!
Skeeter and Boston ramrod missions... Intruders holding just off the fighter fields waiting
for the Nachtjagers the come home...

Sounds like fun to me!!! Peering out of a Lank turret into the darkness, until you are blinded
by searchlights, or see the muzzle blast and tracers less than 100yds out... (LOL, The LAST
thing you see!!!)

I think it would be difficult/challenging/fun, and DIFFERENT!!!
But it'll never happen, too much messin around with the game equasion... Too bad!!!

Ah, whatever!!! Was a nice thought!!!

LMAO The point was that the war didnt stop due to night. It was a 24/7 operation
 "Most" and by most I mean the very mass majority of aircraft in WWII weren't equipped with on board radar either yet... 

 I agree with what Fugitive stated. The most accurate reason why we dont have night is that HT feels

because it will kill the game. The more realistic it become the more players will quit due to it being more like work to fly and fight than it is fun. HTC is in business to make money, not a realistic simulation.

And for exactly those reasons I'd also like to see see of the night fighters added to the game with or without the night.
Personally, for the short time it lasted. something like 15 minutes or so, I liked the night. And thought it was a nice touch.

Why do people whine when they don't get their way?

Especially when 3 billion Chinese wouldnt give a darn.

[Chalenge]

The effects of night on a computer pale in comparison to the real thing anyway.
