Too damn dark!

Once again I play on 3 other servers and night time is excellent vision.

Yup its the server. Nights are fine on the other servers i guess we wait for 6.0

Is that what night looks like for you on the HWS server ? mine is just a mostly black and a few crystals.

Yip for some reason on hws its bright, i can imagen the unfair advantage if i had to raid your base at night on planet :smiley:

That is odd that you see better than most it seems

my nights look like this on HWS

Here’s trader starter on HWS – On night in my SV… First pic is just plain dark night, the second is in the ESCAPE menu where they wash your gamma a bit. same exact location.

realistically wouldn’t light be bouncing off the other planets making it brighter :D, but yea maybe its just a graphics card glitch.

How night looks on ALL other servers

That looks really cool :open_mouth:

Lighting has been seriously ā€œmessed upā€ since 5.0, the dev’s are blaming it on Unity and ā€œoldā€ graphics cards. Well then I guess I must get new GPU’s because my 390x and 970 are ā€œoldā€. On both the lighting is now horrible, looks like somebody got the white balance and shoved it all the way up. I have gone and made everything darker to compensate.
Don’t get me started on all the flares either, all weapons fire looks like Christmas lights now, no definition anymore, just blobs of light.

Look at Masperon now, looks like you are flying into a 70’s disco with all the over saturated and super bright neon colors.
Empyrion has been turned into a lighting effects tech demo.

If everything was fine and then after patch 5.x you can’t call it a ā€œgraphics cards glitchā€, its a problem in the game engine and/or other parts of the code. Blaming it on the GPU and/or drivers is the easy way out.

Go to another server the problem is on HWS

No, its not, its the game after patch 5.0. Its in general, any server, any playfield, dedicated server or single player.
I’m not even playing on HWS right now, I came on for something else and saw this thread.

Anyway, you are stating its too dark, if you didn’t catch it from my post I’m stating its too bright, kind of the opposite problem.

You sir are incorrect look at the screenshot with open eyes :stuck_out_tongue:

stealth edit

I wonder what trove of idiots wanted the game to be unbearingly dark.

Riding a dead horse?
I mentioned everything regarding this and we try to fix it before 6.0. Otherwise you have to deal with this enhanced difficulty - complaining meantime that the game is too easy.

Never can satisfy you guys I guess >.<
