No "oh it's realistic". Realism is getting to choose to not fight in a match where you're playing at a dramatic disadvantage.

Yet another example of poor map design from the professional "do just enough to get by" developers.

Sometimes you play with the sun in your eyes, sometimes the enemy plays with the sun in their eyes. Balance is achieved.

Do you ask for the sun to move in real life as well?

Please, don't give them ideas. The bushes are bad enough, soon they'll be adding sunglasses for the crew members to eliminate the blinding sun.

In all seriousness, it could be toned down a bit.

Thats not balance. Thats "I will get fcked over now", "You will get fcked over next time", not balance, but two fck overs. :-)

Yes "oh it's realistic". Besides, throughout the match you can end up with the sun at your back after starting with it at the front depending on positioning. The sun is the sun, it can't just be removed.

I criticise a lot about this game, but I never felt the sun makes a big difference in this game either.

yah but, what about simply put the sun in the side of the maps so no one or everyone gets blinded by it? that should be balance, but that can't happen because both teams would have
equal fun RIGHT looool, imagine. . .

And what are they going to do when people, fate forbid, have a turnfight during which they'll both get periodically blinded by it, or maybe one decides to turn towards the sun and just book it in a straight line? Remove the sun?

Sun glasses-= 2000GE.
Sun oil = 5000GE..( otherwise you will get longer crew lock cause the crew burned them self in the sun.)

There is actualy no stoping here Gajin could make money on anything related to the sun.

They could break the bank by adding crew model packs consisting of women, like those CS knock-off games having female skins. Imagine how many M64 mains would instantly buy those.
