Dynamic Time of Day is broken [SOLVED]

CookieMan · June 18, 2016 3:52AM

This relates back to my old topic, but I have found that dynamic time of day is broken. Whenever I replay a mission, it changes to a specific time of day depending on what the mission was. When I abort the mission, the world is stuck on that time of day and will not change between day and night. I don't know how to fix this, I'm also on ps4. If anyone knows how to fix this please help.

Edit: this issue is solved and I wrote how I fixed it down in the reply section.

I did complete the mission, it went through the normal cycle but when it reaches that "8PM" looking time where the sky gets dark but still blue and the moon barely comes out.. The time of day gets stuck there. I've also waited for over an hour now just doing deliveries and it's still stuck

Wait for like 4-5 hrs. I'm fully serious. The day/night cycle in the game is looong.

It never used to be like that?

It acts up sometimes i guess

Okay it is still not fixed. I need a dev to see if they have an answer.

CookieMan · June 21, 2016 6:21PM

Update: I have done a fresh installation of the game as well as played a few story missions over again. The cycle of day will go about normally, but once it reaches the beginning of night the cycle stops and the time of day is frozen. Can a dev please look into this because another person on reddit is having the same issue as I and we are both on ps4.

Not sure if there is anyone from DICE on these forums. Sorry!

Ok so good news! My game was acting up, things on my map such as safe houses and omnistat tunnels were disappearing, so I figured, why don't I just start a new game and refresh everything? So I did, and it solved everything. I got to replay the story (which was even better the second time) and now I can go explore the city some more and try to find all those hidden collectables again! Everything is fixed and as it should be now.. There was no other way to solve the time of day problem it seemed. If anyone else has this problem I strongly suggest just creating a new game, considering you won't lose much besides the in-city collectables and story/side mission progress. All dash times and trials are still there and my runner kits are all still saved to my account as well. Thank you to everyone who attempted to help me, now I'm gonna get back to running
