Enclave Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 Why night was removed? and why aren't NV goggles free now? Makes no sense to buy them now, or even have them in the server, other than making your character look "cool". I don't mind it being constant day, just wondering what the actual reason was for removing it? Link to comment
KevinOB Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 Because night time was just "Green time" aka everyone just had night vision goggle on. Link to comment

Well obviously, nonetheless it still brought another aspect to game-play, so I guess I still don't really see the reason behind removing it?

Guest Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 It was removed due to the color change effects that were instituted to make the colors of day more pleasing. People avoided paying for night visions by using "gamma googles". I do miss night a little bit, but enjoy the color correction that was added more. lastbreath187 likes this Link to comment

The CC can't be implemented with night on the server? Link to comment
CyanogenCX Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) I used gamma goggles with night vision. Honestly it made it so much easier to see things. I actually do want night to come back, just make it not as dark, and make night vision more limited. Edited February 21, 2016 by CyanogenCX Enclave likes this Link to comment

Dr.Strangelove Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 I agree, bring back the night! Even if everyone has nvg's it makes it more difficult to spot guillie' sin the undergrowth, limits periferal vision, the kavala pistol bangers rarely had nvg's opting for the cheap ass rook only loadout. More importantly, the world we live in has night! The idea that role play servers exist to create a more authentic experience is redundant if we chose to ignore 50% of the worlds daily conditions is silly. From a personal perspective I also feel safer under the cover of darkness while engaging in illegal activity. And nvg's in well lit areas often means that you have to turn them off or lose a large proportion of the screens contrast ratio which does give an element of subderfuge. Think about the fed or Altus bank, two very well lit areas of the map, I think it would give an advantage to the smaller gangs that can't field the numbers that big gangs can but still want to try heisting. Also tracers are redundant in the day. How more interesting would it be attempting to take a cartel if you could see the position of the campers from their tracers. To finish, bring back the night, a day night cycle shouldn't even be a question. Being in the eu will probably mean I would spend most of my time playing in the dark unless the day night cycle was on a four hour rotation but it's something I'm prepared to endure and let's not pander to the will of all the scared little kids afraid of the dark, most of the people I speak to are in favour of the dark so bring it back, the monocromatic green of nvg's might annoy some people but they always have the option of turning them off and take their chances in the dark, or remove nvg's and bring back the dark so everyone has the same disadvantage. The final option is make nvg's more expensive, like a carrier light so they are an expensive advantage opposed to a standard issue that even the lowliest hobo can afford. When was the last time you saw a RL hobo sporting a pair of Nvg's with his bottle of cheap whiskey sat under a bridge? DreamC, BSuzinator and Enclave like this Link to comment

Boris Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Night vision made fighting at night terrible, plus people used to just turn up their gamma on their monitor so they could see as if it was day, which made NOT doing that a disadvantage to every other player.

Sheriff Rick Grimes Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Paratus removed it because he saw it as "green time" because everyone had night vision goggles. The change was well received and the majority of people like it. So hopefully it stays the way it is. Link to comment

Just because it's "green time" shouldn't be a reason, sounds like a bunch of lazy civs complained because they forgot to buy nvgs Link to comment
