Its weird to have a BR cap when it’s optional…
Especially for all the tanks with night vision/night sights that are below 10.0. does that not make that modification completely useless?
Is there a plan to add flare-launchers for those tanks that had them?
so not getting night battles. gotcha.
and IF I get into a night battle, what do about filter cheats. seems like its gonna be a farm for cheats and punish time for players.
nvm, its a gaijin game. always punishment time for players.
This. When they asked for feedback a little while ago on the planned night battle changes lowering the br cap was one of the top suggestions and seemingly completely ignored. Why ask for feedback if you’re going to ignore said feedback?
Do you guys plan to lower the minimum BR? Most vehicles 8.3 and above have NVD.
it’s kinda lame, a lot of vehicle (almost all of them) at br 8.3 and above have nvd but not necessarily thermal. Thermal should fight only thermal (in night battle they are a legit cheat) and nvd should fight nvd, alternating on using ir lamps or not to spot targets. One thing for sure, pitch black no flare is a must.
Can you please add an icon on a vehicles spawn icon that shows if it has nvd and what type? Just a simple icon for nvd or thermal if unlocked so we can see what to spawn in.
I just finished 13th Ground Realistic Battles with the night battles enabled and all my vehicles 10+ but not a single night battle… is the chance so low or am I just that unlucky?
Please make night battles available for all BRs. Since they’re entirely optional, players are only going to go into night battles if they want to. So, there is no reason to limit night battles to thermals BR. Let the WWII tanks fight at night if players want to do so. There might be a longer queue time when selecting night battles at those BRs, but it’d be worth it.
I for one quite liked night battles, even in vehicles without NVD. It’s a cool aesthetic. I’d definitely play night battles in low tier vehicles.
Not enough people have turned it on yet probably
No. This did not come with yesterday’s update. Should be coming in the future though, we’ll announce it in a minor update.
I agree with this.
I’d like to also see night battles at a lower BR with flares, and spotlights. I’d love to see tanks running around with lights on.
This. I have played with this enabled since the first day, tried 10.0, 11.7, and have not gotten a single night match still. I would prefer a further option to WAIT for a night match. These rewards are going to be 100% impossible with less than a 1% chance of them happening. Thanks.
(Copy from another comment I left):
I have found 1 person in all the games, so over 100+ other players, and only ONE has seen a night battle since change. I would not mind waiting 10+ minutes for a night battle. ESPECIALLY since there are rewards now, going to be literally impossible if it is only less than a 1% CHANCE of happening. I would personally not mind waiting 10 min or hell, even 20-30 min if I could be sure to get a single night mode. There are many of us who would be fine with waiting, however, shoving us into a normal Ground RB in seconds is what is preventing us from grouping up, not the demand for night games.
Final note:
I have been asking people in Ground RB’s to flip the switch if they are interested in Night Modes, and off hand, I have had probably 100 people NOT realize that they still needed to flip the slider to actually have a CHANCE at night games. These were all people who were mildly to strongly interested in night matches, but just missed or closed the popup when the update happened that they needed to actually opt into night modes. I would suggest another round of updates/popups/launcher news links etc to get the word out. There is a LOT of interest in night modes from what I have heard from players in game, its just that the info about where the switch is located, and that it is required to do so in order to get night matches. (The Moon icon’s location, AND the slider at top once in that menu was unknown to at least 90% of the people who were interested in the night games.)
You can see all the rewards after you click the Moon icon (next to the gear icon on the Realistic mode selector.)
At this point it doesn’t make sense to argue about the BR of night battles if the chance is so low you wouldn’t even care if you finally got into one.
Another user commented about allowing VERY low BR’s here: Night Battles
And I FULLY agree that I would LOVE to play some VERY early NVD games, like down to 3.7 (or lower.) WW2 had night battles, WW2 has some very primitive NVD’s. I would like to utilize them. And since this is a fully optional game mode, I see no reason to lock it to 10.0+. (And yes, that means I would be perfectly fine going in with some/all tanks that dont even have NVD’s. That happened in REALITY. Hence, why should it be excluded from “REALISTIC” modes, that players opt into?)
And I also agree, I do not care much about the BR discussion, as much as I care about getting SOME Night Matches at all :D
6 Hours, still 0 night games. Yeah, imo a force queue option needs to be implemented. The rewards are literally never going to happen at this rate. (I have still seen 0 night games, not a single one.) Thanks, cheers.
Why is it BR limited? Its optional there is no reason to limit BR of night battles. Personally I play all BRs I have from 1.0 to 11.3 and I would love to have an occasional night battle in any of those BRs, and by reading the comments there are lots of people who would want that.
Also it should be proper night battles without or at least less flares and random weather.
After add this option the regular MM is completely destroyed and you are stuck in the same 2 or 3 maps all the time. Really how is possible be so incompetent ???
i’ve seen you post this in other places as well.
i don’t have this issue at all, so it seems more like a bug for you than anything else.
i also see that your average time per battle in like 30 seconds. what are you even doing?
