SUGGESTION- very dark nights for immersion. | Forums

Greetings Ubisoft team!
Now that immersion mode is kicking off with very good feedback results, I wanted to share a few thoughts on the realism of stealth operations in the game.

With immersive mode allowing the ability to make the game very difficult and turn off all elements, it is important that the player can utilize stealth to complete the most difficult of missions. Night time missions are my personal favorite because they give you an edge in combat. With that said, I would certainly like to see a greater approach to detail when it comes to night cycles. 100% of the time during night, the moon is almost full and very bright, reducing the need for night vision during nighttime. The night vision has been improved, yet in some cases offers little visibility advantage over the bright moonlit nights of Auroa. Having some nights with little moonlight or no moonlight would be really awesome to be enabled or disabled as an option in immersive mode. During darker nights, AI soldiers wouldn't be able to see you in the shadows, just in the same way you could not see them without night vision.

This would truly enhance the immersion mode. Darker nights would be a tactical advantage for ghosts, just as military operators use night time for raids and top secret missions. So many people I know use night time to cover their attacks in this game, especially when on advanced difficulty or extreme, it is essential to use darkness.

A little side note- There used to be a drone glitch before the recent march update that allowed you to keep your night vision goggles down without enabling night vision or thermal, this was cool for me because it was a cosmetic option for my character. Now the night vision goggles are only brought down when night vision is enabled, an option to keep the goggles down without using night vision or thermal would be awesome because the goggles look so cool on helmets.

Thanks for the hard work.

At this point I don't think anything can make me want to play this game (played it for 2 hours or so and hated it compared to Wildlands). But if you are hoping to attract players with immersion, then yeah, darker nights are most definitely the way to go.

You can get some pretty dark nights with the image calibration settings!

Decrease Brightness
Increase contrast
Decrease Gamma

Boom: Black nights.

But during the day is not good at all cant see a thing in the corner of the building. The lightning need fix siting next to a door need thermals to see inside in mid of the day it is just stupid.

He's not talking about bright settings but game light mechanics. To use advantage of shadows and not being spotted. And for better experience with NVG.
