I'm not sure if this has been suggested.

Some night maps could be fun and it would look awesome. Watching red tracers fly all around sounds pretty decent. Could the developers add some night stages or is that an impossible thing to do?

Clear this thread if there are night stages that I'm not aware of. Because all I've played are day stages.

many people had problems with it and crashed on loadup, so it was changed to day. Also it did not look that realistic in the night, with some bf2 lighting issues.

This is a resuggestion please use the Already Suggested Suggestions thread and the search function.


Night maps were buggy and many peoples computers didnt like them.

Night maps have been suggested. I think the problem is something to do with the shaders. It would be cool to see a sunset map, where it is semi-dark though.

The problem was the night vision sucked hard.

As mentioned, the Night vision is buggy and people think of it as playing with a green screen.

I love the idea but there isn't much room in the BF2 engine to expand on this. They did make a Kashan Desert Night mode and Bi Ming Night in previous Builds of PR

Please Lock Due to ReSuggestion.

If im not mistaken BF2 special forces had several night maps?

Also I think theres a vBF2 map where the sun had gone down (however not completely dark).

Looks like theres no engine limitations as such, dunno how to implement it in PR though.

Ya I am pretty sure the NV in PR was taking from the bf2 NV. and it sucked bad. Really without proper night vision that could display lighting and tracers correctly it would be a waste to have a night map.

Or we can just play day time maps. problem solved.

It's not worth the hassle and its been suggested 9999 times anyways. I am not even gonna ask about the Taliban vs Chechen's statement.

Locked due to resuggest
https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f18-pr ... tions.html

And for future reference, once one person says its a resuggest, we don't all need to post saying the same thing... The extra explanation is fine and welcome until the lock though, imo[explaining how we had Bi Ming, etc though the MOD who locks should also explain this as well]

We had an even older night map as well and for several reasons they were taken out. Theres a current project working on an Al Basrah night map though I dont know if thats still being worked on... its in community modding somewhere
