    QUESTION: Is there NO Day and Night cycle

    I thought it was a bug - but I see some suggesting that this game is indeed like AC UNITY. No real time day and night cycle...?


    Can anyone confirm?

    There is a day/night cycle. Not sure why some people are saying there isn't.

    There is definitely a day/night cycle in my game.

    Night isn't particularly dark, like most modern games, but it's there.

    My game cycles from day to night, and back to day. On the PC.

    However it's feels at times as if the game "sticks" to one or the other. Perhaps resetting itself upon a game exit/restart.

    The cycle seems to be 60 minutes day followed by 15 minutes night.
    Though some missions appear to mess with it or break it.

    It might sound silly, but I seriously wonder if these people saying they're stuck on permanent days are simply not noticing the nights. The nights in Far Cry 5 are just about the lightest of any game I've ever played, and they're over very quickly, too. When I'm playing the game, not once do I find myself thinking, "Oh, it's night..." simply because they go buy almost unnoticed.

    Ah, yes. Good point. It was just a thought, but I'd forgotten some had said this.
