Flash lights

I dont know if this prioblem has come up with iother people but ive noticed its pretty darn dark in some places and its easy to have sum1 there without them then knowing that .and i know thats for an element of cover but people say the best way to get threw that is to turn up ur gamma and brightness . well when that s done the game doesnt look as kewl as it normally does so ia sk is there any way the server admins could add the flash light feature on the ville servers so some people can use other tools or methods of defeating enemies while in the dark

Thank you for your time Have A Nice Day

I think that's just part of the game. I don't really like it when people turn their gamma up so much that they can see everywhere. Dod is a realism game, and I don't think soldiers in the war had infrared vision or something. Flashlights wouldn't be too bad.

But you also have to remember that you can't run around with your flashlight on all the time. A lot of the time, you'll think of turning it on jsut as you enter the dark, and by then it might be too late. Just use your best assumption, and take time to check those corners. You'll probably be heard approaching anyway, so a little gunfire in the corners couldn't hurt you

Flashlights might not be a bad idea to add to the realism. Just remember that you glow when it's on and it will make you a lot easier to see when you're coming. The servers should be set to turn down the game gamma to help with that a little.

Everything is being done right now to keep the servers lag free and full. Adding new features like that may slow things down. Not to mention some of the other things that people have already brought up.

These opinions are based on ignorance. They do not reflect the ideas of server owners/operators.

My gamma, and brightness, are maxed and I still have a difficult time seeing in a lot of places. Maybe I just need a new monitor.

(or to take off the shades.)
