Hey guys, I was just looking at the recently added Longbow screenshots, and something seemed really strange about them, though I couldn’t put my finger on it. Then, it hit me!
If you take a look at the first pictures released of the map (First one, Second one), you’ll notice that the sky shows a starry view, like a nighttime sky. However, by looking at the three new pictures (One, Two, Three), you’ll see that the sky is a nice daytime blue. What’s up with this? Did they change the sky in a newer build of the map? Or does the map have a sky that changes its looks during the course of the game? Perhaps a Forge Effect allows you to switch between the two?
It may be nothing, but it also may be something. And I’m sorry if this was posted before, but I thought you all might like to see it.
I noticed that too, I wasn’t sure if it were night and day or just a freaky skybox that had starry parts. Like have blue and cloudy and Half starry? But it could be either. Obviously the sky changing would make more sense.
Wow… I did not notice this at all. Maybe they just changed the skybox for the most recent build? I kinda like the cloud look better, its much brighter.

However, the “starry” images are both completely different parts of the sandbox compared to the “day” images. It’s hard to compare them. /:
It’s on a different planet, I forget what planet, but it might be the planet we see in the main menu being destroyed. The map looks beautiful, lighting and it looks well designed.

Actually, this one and this one are looking at the same building, therefore the same area of the sky, more or less. You can easily tell that they are quite different.

Ahh, very good comparison. I smell forge skybox variations.
