TacticalKid Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Which do you enjoy more? Playing during day or during the night? Night adds some more excitement but i havent really played enough when its dark to make a decision. Link to post Share on other sites
ryangolfvr6 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Ive mostly played day time events but do love the one time I played at night Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmypie Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Night time is best,with urban/fibua games you cant beat the feeling of storming through buildings, flash bangs going off, tracer rounds bouncing around. Woodland, stalking people with gen3 is a hoot, its amazing how close you can get Link to post Share on other sites
Lajjvo Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 The biggest issue during the dark hours is that you can't really move in any vegetation (except grass fields and similar) without making to much noise. Unless you have a NOD of course. This forces you to use roads and the like, making you a nice target for anyone with said NOD. As I don't have the money to spend on a good gen2+ NOD, and the gen1+ I had decreased my ability to move in the woods rather than increasing it, I'd rather gather some sleep when it's dark outside and be up at 0500 and ready to go out at the crack of dawn.

Snowman1 Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 I was at a day and night game a while back, and I loved the night portion. It was a full moon, walking through an open wheat field with my friend, it was awesome. Link to post Share on other sites
richieffff Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 Night time, anything that moves becomes an enemy, no really though I love night games, between the tracers and the strobe lights it gets pretty fun, with one of my favourite memories being during the night with circa 90 players involved in a convoy ambush, close quarters night time fun Link to post Share on other sites
farfromahero Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 I prefer just around dusk to my favorite time to play. The setting sun and the new shadows forming really start to play tricks on your eyes. Link to post Share on other sites
Cannonfodder80 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Personally I like night games, but only if it's with the right sort of people. The thing that annoys me is people who have no idea about light disipline, there is not much worse than spending ages getting your eyes adjusted for the dark for some little **** to shine a million lumen tac light in your face from 5 yards away shouting what team are you on? Then his mate does the same thing 10 yards further up the path Link to post Share on other sites

Then his mate does the same thing 10 yards further up the path I agree. Linked to this are those who, when stood at the back or in the middle of a group advancing down a dark corridor, will insist on shining their tac lights everywhere so the guys trying to advance up front stand out and promptly get slotted from infront and behind.

LordElpus Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 love night games, but can't agree more with the last 2 posts Link to post Share on other sites
tquilha Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Night games, especially with a bright full moon are absolutely great. Link to post Share on other sites

shmook Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 I love night games (woodland, not tried urban), but, as said above, only if people know what they are doing! I've used head mounted NVG to great effect, along with a night sight on my M4, but my favourite is my dedicated NV riflescope bolted onto a sniper rifle. With this and my ghillie, I owned the night at my last game Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted December 26, 2011 Report Share Posted December 26, 2011 Night! My god, yes, night... Had a blast with a small team of 10 people ( private skirm, so 5 vs 5 or so ) in a small farmhouse. Red LED light for navigation, barely used the white light I had. Just use your natural nightsight. People underestimate natural eyesight. After some getting-used-to, I found the lowest setting of my RDS to be blinding and ruining my nightsight! Stalk, shoot, stalk, shoot. Watch every step you take, pause every 5 steps to hear. Try and get as many stealth ( knife ) kills you can. Sometimes it gets so quiet, your own heartbeat disturbs your hearing . love it.

farrasdevell Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 I like night time playing but it makes me a bad team player. I am hard enough to keep tabs on during the day but when the sun goes down, I'm off! knife in one hand Mk1 in the other on a murderous rampage. As yet I don't own and NV but my list for the new year is Thermal which is obtainable sub £3000 now. (no kids, no mortage, no flashy car) Link to post Share on other sites
signal319 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 My team managed to get within 20 metres of a sentry position, just by walking towards it, before lighting it up - definitely prefer night games! It's almost all I seem to play now, far more than day games anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
sigma3 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 I love them too, but for some reason people only seem to do them around here in the summer. Makes no sense to me; it gets dark earlier in the winter! Let's get playing! Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Hunk Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Night games are fun but in this area we have a problem with them having a lack of players. Last night game I got further than I should have in pitch dark with no use of a nav light. Crept into a well light "village" and maintained this position for a good hour before getting a chance to ambush. I hope to get some NODs before the night game season kicks off this year.

fabien Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 i have done both but only in CQB at night... due to the range of our beloved airsoft, i found night (or dawn) game way better. the night game CQB are pumping way more adrenaline into your body. I have seen beginner checking during night game. at Dawn it is also very good, the shadow are playing trick with your eyes. Link to post Share on other sites
Uchiha_Itachi Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 It really depends on the type of night games. They can be fun, or just flat out dangerous with dumb people. I've had several close run ins with people being dumb. So much so that many people I know refuse to play night games. That, and my experience, has been that they suck. People either camp or become terminators. With the right people and tracers+nvgs......way better than day. Day games are just easier. Link to post Share on other sites
Kenworth W900 Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Day for me. It has to be such a perfect set of circumstances for night games to be fun. First and most important of all is just finding a full complement of guys who understand the etiquette of night games. With that said, as has been noted above, when you get night games right they can be the best games you'll ever play. Link to post Share on other sites
Bladerider Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Night. But like everybody said you need good players and the game has to be ran properly or it ends up being the worst pile of sh*t ever! Link to post Share on other sites
