Night Fighting Fixed Yet?

HiroshiChugi · 2013-02-05, 07:42 AM

As I have not been able to play the game in quite a while, I am basing update changes on the very little videos I've seen and on the forum posts I've read. Can anyone tell me if night play in PS2 has gotten darker yet? Or has it stayed the same? Also, include any other major fixes that players have been wanting to ahppen. Thanks.

Yes, it definitely got darker after the patch.

Don't see a difference

The desert is as bright at night as ever

It got darker. Though it's more like they reduced the lighting, rather than decreasing gamma. Hence it's still as bright as ever at mid-ranges in open fields under the moon.

Thanks guys. I'm looking forward to better night fighting upon my full return to Planetside 2

Got darker eh? Nice! I haven't had a chance to play much since the patch.

I don't notice a difference since the patch. The VS are just as impossible to see at night as they've always been.

can't you just turn down the brightness in your options when the sun goes down?

Still not dark enough, I actually don't notice a difference from how it was pre-patch.

I watch some of the beta footage out there and see how dark it was and really wish they'd go back to that. I don't see why people wouldn't want it to be dark.

That's at Allatum, the game isn't even half that dark now ;(

I'm wanting real nights as well.

We want real nights.

I remember Beta and it didn't seem any darker to be honest

Higby constantly boasted in interviews about how PS2 has "real, dark nights" and how drivers will need to use their headlights to navigate terrain and infantry will need flashlights.

Hey you asked if they "fixed' something to draw attention to it not being to designed to suit your tastes.

Clever move!!

I seriously miss beta nights.

They should atleast have one continent that gets really really dark like indar used to in beta

IN REALITY...

How dark it is at night is based on the "phase" of the gas giant in the sky. When it is "full" night doesn't get very dark at all. BUT when it is "new" night gets darker than it does on earth.
