Oasis in the dark?

What do you guys think of an Oasis map at night, or if not at night, dusk?
I was just playing on GH and it struck me how tense the map would be if you had to fight in the dark. It may even stop spawn camping to an extent as firing would now give away your position, etc.
Just an idea, feel free to flame ;p

That would be like the one African mission in Hidden and Dangerous 2 that takes place at night (where you have to defend an Oasis (what a coincidence))

would be great that you have to shoot at the light spots from the enemy weapon

Dawn would be pretty nice also. Have the sun half way up and half way down so it easy to see without having to use night vision.

You would first have to do something about muzzle flashes. It's more realistic now than it was before, but even in real life you see a flash one every two or three shots. Especially a night you see a flash.
That would definitely be an obstacle, but a map like that would be great!

That would be awesome, dusk or dawn, just bright enough that you can see infront of you and silhoutes on hill lines, but just dark enough that you can't make people out right away in the distances.

The silenced pistol would actually be useful for once!
Great idea, i also think the jeeps should be taken out, theyd ruin the atmosphere.

Not sure about Oasis being a night fight map but maybe somebody could have a go at making a new map, lots of forests maybe....

I like the idea. You would actually be able to use stealth if it was at night. Now, it's just a meat grinder of who can control the hills and eventually charge into the oasis.

It would be nice with steel thunder in dark to, and going in the woods not seeing or knowning where your enemy is. But then it would be real cool jusing those things i cant remeber what called. They got it in americas army at the recon map, sure one of you have playd it.

That is cool in theory, but unless the tanks were given IR vision this would make tank combat insanely unrealistic. Blind fighting in a tank is nonexistant these days.

Actually with all the overhead foliage in Steel Thunder, it is kind of like a night map. It is actually about to rain in it so it is pretty close to dark.

Oasis in the dark would be KICK ***! That would become a very popular map very quickly! Just minus the tanks, and dpvs, and humvees.
