“The reason they made nights brighter is a good reason - people didn't like fighting in the darkness, they didn't like not being able to see things. On top of that, people would just crank up the gamma to bypass dark nights.

However, making ALL nights brighter was the wrong solution to this problem. As this thread has pointed out time and again, they should've instead made it so that it's always daytime in at least one continent. When they add Hossin, they can make it a full cycle, one continent could be experiencing dawn while another is at midnight. At the same time, the third would be at noon and the fourth would be at dusk so you always have somewhere to fight no matter what time of day you prefer fighting in. I mean, the planet is round, let that be a factor in how people play the game!

Alternately(or additionally), they could make it so that some continents are brighter at night than others. Hossin, for example, is a murky swampland with trees everywhere It should be very dark at night there. Amerish has a lot of forestry and what-not as well, it should be relatively dark, though perhaps not as dark as Hossin. Indar should be relatively bright, unless you're in the shadow of a mountain or something while Esamir would logically have the brightest nights with all that reflective snow everywhere.

Another thing they could do to solve the darkness issue for people would be to implement flares. They could be an underbarrel grenade launcher attachment. You fire a white flare into the sky and it slowly drifts downward over a period of two to five minutes. There could also be a flare launcher that takes up your pistol slot. Maybe infiltrators have special flares that aren't as bright and burn out quicker but spot people automatically.

They could also add lights to towers, walls and other structures to light up the area around major battle-zones...because those places would logically be well-lit on a planet that's engulfed in war like Auraxis.

I don't know, all of these things have been brought up before but they're all still valid points. The developers solved the issue of dark nights bothering some people by ruining nights for the rest of us. I mean, there's probably more people that don't care about nights than there are people who love or hate dark nights, but still. This needs to be reassessed and they need to come up with a better solution to this simple problem. Literally everyone can win here.”

Gamma won't bypass the darkness if done correction. This was covered lonngg ago and got buried in these forums. For an Example, look up ARMA 3 nights.

Maybe really dark nights, but you have a "brighter" more visible area around yourself?

BUMPAROO!

And give NV on vehicles a range buff, for those super dark nighs when the VS are imperceptible (until your face is fried by plasma)!
