Joe, we put up a vote awhile back, got a great response, 99% said YES, but HT's says the numbers drop when nite comes around on the server...I explained to him that this is the 15 min break that those who dislike 'needed' anyway! And besides, 15 min of nite every 2-4 hours shouldn't do anything to the player base...after all, I never saw one post regarding to get rid of the night..
PLEASE, BRING BACK THE NIGHT!
-
Yup, agree.

I liked the night but if it's a marketing $$$'s issue, we're wasting our breath (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

It doesnt matter if they log out at night time WE DONT PAY BY THE HOUR!! Besides why have a lancaster with no night time and you fighter jocks still got neon icons and in flight radar so it isnt realy to hard for you to continue on playing.
When we get night back ill start up a paying account again..either that or when 1.05 comes out (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) See HTC you get another 30$ a month if you put night back in. Please!!!!

Joe, dollars to donuts says they're (HTC) wondering what next 'bump in the road' would cause you to cancel the account once back on... (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

32 to 3 so far HTC
So far the next thing im gonna complain about is inflight radar then the range finder icons then that should be about it.
Oh yeah and give the JU88 some stronger guns if your not too busy HTC (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Well it couldn't possibly make me any worse than I already am - in fact may have better excuses hmmmm.....night yes!
-
Nope for me. Didn't care for it once the novelty wore off.

I love the night, and vision in AH isn't really hampered by night unless you have icons off. I asked Hitech one day when he was online why we didn't have night anymore when 1.04 first came out, he said it was an issue with commands or some such thing. BTW any edgamacated individuals out there want to share any insight on what the deep down real reason is some players have a distain for night fighting ? It's kind of funny when you think about it .

I don't want it back. Boring.

Bring It! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
Then i can start climbing to 30k alt about 45 min before dark and have all that time to avoid fighters and get in position to DESTROY things in a LANC (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Definitely bring it...in clouds, in the dark, now that's a dogfight!

Do you guys wanna see something truly beautiful? Turn the clock to 0530, and fly a P-51 from any base. Fly towards an enemy complex, V-fields work nicely, and get ready for some real fireworks! The tracers from ground fire look unreal at night! Slowly cruising by on their way to a target.
Ohh.....and BRING DA NIGHT BACK!!![/i]

Yes, bring back the night. I wanna be able to do night missions with the squad...

Players log off when Radar is down...We should remove that too.

PS:Bring back night fighting.

Yes bring the night time back!

Bring back the night, if you can turn off the dashboard lighting. Too bright.

Like Wilfred said. I cant see anything with the dash lit up so bright.
Think the ostwind would be even worse at night though.
-
1) Give us the night vision lighting aircraft had in WW2 (Red cockpit lighting?)
2) Bring back the night!!!!
3) Remove the point location RADAR permanently and only allow it to work in nightfighters and the map room (e.g.-GCI) (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) . (We would still retain Sector DAR for everyone).

Bring on the night fighters, Bf.110G, Ju.88G, He.219, P-61, and Mossie! YEAH!

yup,...the night was and would be fun...
at only 15 min...real time...it shouldn't be
a problem, even for those who really don't like it..(IMHO).. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
one YES vote from me..especially if you could
add landing lights/runway lighting/...and even
searchlights...would be very, very interesting

By all means bring back the night!
But first we must have the ability to turn the gauge and panel lights down. As it is, it's like driving your car with sun shinning in your face.
-
yes!
-
Yep - night back pls but with it pls add parachute flares in the loadout and stop tanks looking like Jack-o-lanterns.
-
or at leat brng bact the possibility to have night in the SEAs !!

15 minutes every 4 hours would be fine with me, and every now and then, longer.

Five minutes of Night just before the hour would be cool. It would be fun to plan a mission so you arrive over the target at night.
Searchlights and player controlled AAA would make it that much better.

Sissies. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) If you want night play a little H2H, Zapkin's game has night about 1/4 of the time I log in. It does get old though when you're staring at an icon for a NIKI and you can't even see the damn plane at d400.

Is it supposed to be as realistic as it can be here?.
"Sometimes" it is night and dark out there, in real life, isn't it?.
It was a night war in the air in WWII, ok?
Then bring this "as real as it gets" and give just a little bite of night to the sim.
This will not harm it.

Guess they'd better make the HQ indestructable when the city is less than 50% standing. People log when they realize they're going to have to do w/o radar for 2.5hrs. And night time was much, much shorter than the radar outages I'm so fond of causing (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

The solution is simple and immediately at hand. For those of you that like night, just unplug your monitor. For the rest of us who actually like to SEE something, we'll leave our monitors plugged in.

Yup, BRING IT BACK !

Give us back the NIGHT. If they (others) don't want it then maybe a compromise like make it an option on another arena, or a little shorter on the main arena.
BUT I VOTE YES FOR NIGHT.

I'm all for it, bring back the night!!!
Lancs, Ju88s, and probably PT boats would all be more capable of functioning effectively in their intended roll if they were just a little bit harder to find.

I hope they bring back the night.
I hope it lasts at least 2 hours.
I hope night ALWAYS starts at 10PM Central time.
...That way, I'll always be loggin off at 10PM and going to bed instead of playing until 0200.
I won't be so tired the next day anymore!

I do. Add the He 219 for night fighting. Matter of fact add 2 or 3 night fighter versions.
-
BRING BACK THE NIGHT PLEASE!
I seriously doubt it hurts the subscriber base of the game at all to have a 15 minute night cycle. To me that was the best time to stage bomber raids as the "sun" was on its way down. That way you could get close to your target and maybe make it back out again before the "sun" rose again.
I WANT TO SEE STARS AND MOON ALSO....LOL!

Good lord, a 10 year bump.
Night time can be interesting, we have used it in AvA with mixed results.
Sometimes it just empties the arena.
I would prefer variable light conditions, something short of pure darkness.

my only experience with night here, was way back when i first signed up. i flew in it, and it was beautiful. i didn't find any fights in it though. i was a total noob.
i'd like to give it a try though.
what i'd like more, is to not have auto retracting flaps spoil my shot though. :noid
