Just turn down the gamma on your monitor.

Post by: Overlag on March 17, 2004, 09:42:08 AM: what annoys me, is night was 1 hour of the day... why dont you guys just find something else to do for 1hour out of 24? instead you whine and HT remove 1hour of night.....great.

im up for night being UK prime time if you want laz :rolleyes:

I don't live in the UK. And am in fact living in a timezone exactly 12 hours ahead of the UK.

Oh very funny.

The vocal minority yell and get what they want, and anyone who doesn't agree gets a sarcastic reply?

Cheers :aok

Post by: MadMan on March 17, 2004, 11:50:23 AM: Yeah, what did happen tot he night???

It was one of the good points of the game... Night time operations were fun, but now it's sunset then sunrise.

I'd like to see night time more often, not less... say, a 6 hour rotation where 5 hours is daytime 1 hour is night.

Might as well remove the Lanc now. It's be role has been removed. Same goes for other aspects of the game. Let's take everything out except the Spit 5, the F4F, Hurr, and nine fields six miles apart.

Post by: palef on March 17, 2004, 05:25:22 PM: I find it interesting that one has to belong to a certain "group" for complaint to be considered valid. I see that a poll has been started about whether we should have night or not, but as I have said, the BBS is NOT representative of the player base. It is a vocal minority so a poll here will reflect the attitudes of those who dwell here extensively.

Thanks for all the feedback here.

100% true.. here it seems the only people speaking up hate night, yet when ch1 heard that theres no night anymore, most of the replies (that i saw) was "that sucks", "shame", "wtf no night?" etc etc

alot of people that play this game dont have forum accounts, and at the same time, some people that DONT play the game (anymore) still post here......
Title: I guess this thread is as good as any to add my thoughts...
Post by: Virage on March 17, 2004, 11:22:32 PM: 2 ideas.

shorten 'total night' time.

and/or

limit the amount of night cycles to once every 24 hrs instead of once every 12 hours (which is what i think it is now)

thoughts...

how does taking something out of the game make it better? "Something for everyone" is what gets and keeps a variety of players.

how many players have left or not become subscribers because of the night cycle?

I have logged off because of night..I have fought in the dark.. and I have also enjoyed moonlit Ju88 strikes.
I would hate to lose the choice.
