    Upping gamma setting is only going to work for a small bit, as everything that is only a bit lighter will just show up as white.

    Yes, Support from me as well darker nights will add a whole new level to the game, being able to sneak up on a base without being seen would be amazing.

    GIVE US BACK THOSE DARK NIGHTS! I remember the bug in the beta when it would just get bright during the middle of the night and people complained so much about it and wanted night to stay dark like how it was when it 1st turned night. NOPE, they made night time completely bright for release

    This thread! I had completely forgotten how awesome night battles were. I remember I went to my first fight ever in beta and it was completely dark, and I saw all those effects in dark, it was... awesome in so many levels.

    Wow I didn't know that nights were that awesome in BETA.
    I totally want nights to be that dark again.

    Please SOE, turn the lights off! :)

    I want night because it would make for a much greater variety of experiencing huge battles.

    No thanks. Nights are dark enough as it is. Maybe you should calibrate your monitors.

    This cannot be called night as it is right now... Even full moon night in real life is darker.

    Bringing night back would not only bring great visual effects back but also a new type of gameplay not knowing exactly where enemies are without lights to illuminate them etc.

    Beta night was amazing setting up flashes with headlights to illuminate bases and flashlights on guns actually helping.

    I completely agree. Everything was beautiful at night during beta. Now it's like it's full moon all night every night and it removes that interesting night time element.

    I tried. Didn't work.

    Someone needs to tweet a link of this thread to someone. I don't believe I've EVER seen a PS2 thread that was this unanimous.

    I support this!
    Night fights are really awesome. Makes the game have a bigger side. The gameplay would be very different from day fights

    Not BLUE (smurf scum!), dunce, BRIGHT GREEN. In fact, TRay should just drop that "gritty teal secondary color" for the MIGHTY GREEN PLASMA OF DEATH.

    Just imagine how much more badass would VS style look with bright green glowy cansiters on guns, armor and vehicles. Green just goes better with purple than our current secondary color, especialy after that lighting pass that brightened up all the camo. The RGB tri-faction color model from all the way back to 1980s is there for a reason! It evokes POWER


    might wanna turn off sound

    Here's to new lasher effects! :eek:


    Other than that +1 to darker nights!

    Nighttime in beta was super dark. I liked it that way, too. You would sometimes catch a glimpse of a Galaxy flying overhead and you get to see the tracers of the gunners firing at everything below, it looked spectacular.

    All the lightning/NV equipment on infantry and vehicles will need a rehaul and all these bright flashes in pitch-black would have to be proofed against migraine/epilepsy-inducing things...

    ...that said it could be quite awesome. Throwable glowsticks, flares, floodlights, utility MAXes boosting NV range for friendly infantry in the vicinity and all other tasty stuff.
