Optional Night Battles for Ground Realistic Battles

Please remove the flares from night battles, they make NVDs impossible to use as you have to turn it on and off all the time

I’ve played countless battles today and only got 1 night battle. The probability is still way too low and players refusing to play night battles shouldn’t affect those who actually like them.

I asked players if they had night battles turned on while in live matches, and the overwhelming majority of players said they don’t have night battles turned on.

At this rate is going to take me hundreds of hours to unlock the night battle rewards. Night battles should have its own game mode at this point.

Stona is there any plan in the future to improve the chances of getting into night battle like a separate queue for it?
also will they be bringing night battles for other game modes like “top tier air sim an air rb”?
I know I enjoy night maps in sim caused by evening with thunderstorms, (I have some pictures of it in my f16)

Sorry but can you explain how does removing BR limit reduces the chance to get night battle?
Not everybody, who wants night battles, play or have 10+ BR vehicles. My personal example is that I play 10+ BR 10% of the time at best, so logically I am in the night battle queue 10% of the battles… Now if BR limit would be removed I would be in night battle queue 100% of battles. So removing BR limit, logically, should improve the chance to get night battles, because it would be possible for bigger pool of players.
Also what about flares? They make night battles bright as day, I literally had a day overcast battle which was darker than any night battle I had after flare implementation.

With 1 BR “bracket” you have 1 queue for Night Battle.
If you split that line into two or more brackets (more BR available for MM), you will lower the chance of getting Night Battle (because real number of players waiting in specific line will be lower).

not really though right?, the people playing at lower BR are still going to be there with or without nigh battles available. so the number of people in queue for lets say BR 12.0 is still going to remain the same if you open up BR 9.0 for night. its just that those playing BR 9.0 will now also be in a separate queue for nigh battles at that BR.

so i don’t see how it will affect queue time at other BR brackets.

Played for around 43hours this week got 2 NB’S the % to get a NB is way to low for what i like

What? WHY?

It’s entirely optional - if you have most tanks above 8.0 they have an NVD setting if not thermal.

On a side note, what the hell is this? This definitely isn’t a NIGHT battle!

How would a 3.0 player take away night battle from a 12.0 player? Was the system with night battles always like that? If its a new thing, why cant it be reversed to the old system, so that players who like night battles at all BRs could properly enjoy them.
What about flares and weather? Is there a plan to rework them to make night battles actually night?

Still not a single night battle since it was brought back and I’ve played dozens and dozens of top tier games. (Yes it is toggled on). Also can we please lower the BR cap already? Limiting it to 10.0 when it’s optional makes zero sense.

Are there any BR issues between eras and some vehicles using search lights and some using thermal ?

this is what I despise about Gaijin

They completely avoided common sense when putting NBs back in. “Hey, this is a completely optional mode, right? Maybe we should remove flares and make the night actually dark?” Nope, they basically re-introduced NBs without a single change from when they were not optional.

The minimum mission BR for NBs is 11.0, which is absolutely hilarious when you consider that under the old matchmaker, when NBs weren’t optional, was around 7.0. There’s zero point in getting the NVD mod on most cold war era tanks unless you feel like uptiering them. Nevermind the fact that almost every single MBT and IFV above 8.0 has NVD.

So six weeks after the reintroduction of NBs, they are still the exact same as they were in the old matchmaker, just very rare and even less accessible than they used to be.

The “night battles” are such as day time especially on desert or snow maps

I would like to see kind of this

Night fights are good, but now that they are selective, the flares that launch are unnecessary, and NVD’s and TVD’s must be completely separated; it is impossible for Gen 1 and 2MBT’s NVD’s to take on the high quality thermal sights of an armored vehicle time-traveling from the 21st century.

Heya guys! My Night Battle toggle got turned off (I assume by itself, as I absolutely want it on). Maybe it reset after last update? If you enjoy NB’s and/or are still working towards the NB rewards, check to make sure it’s still on!

Now that they’re optional, please enable night battles at all BRs and in all modes!

I know this thread hasn’t been active for awhile, but I was reading another thread that linked to this one and was encouraged to post here.

With all that said, I support night battles being an option for all BR.

I think it would be a lot of fun.

And night should be real dark if it’s overcast, and moonlight if it’s clear. With the new Ray tracing effects a clear night lit by the stars and moon would/could look pretty brilliant!
