Is the day-night cycle purely cosmetic?
The cycle for this game seems pretty quick. Is there anything that happens more often, or exclusively, at certain times or parts of the day?
Best Answer
After playing the game for quite awhile, I have to say I think it doesn't have any effect on the gameplay whatsoever apart from obscuring vision slightly.
Because the game is an MMO, it is hard to tell whether this is a server bug, intentional or perhaps they just haven't coded it yet. But no doubt, the game's difficulty doesn't change in any noticeable or dramatic way as a result of the day/night cycle.
(It's possible that this may only apply during certain missions or areas that the difficulty changes, but I am yet to find any official word in regards to whether this is true or not. For now, I would say it's cosmetic.)
