"Depends. If I'm foraging, only in the daytime, back before sundown. Not only is it easier to spot Zack, but also Raiders, Highwaymen, and anything else that may want to kill me.

If I'm on the run, and my route is known, I'd risk night travel. Only on open road, open fields, never in cities or forests. "

"woods @ night = stupid unless you have very good night vision, clear sky w/moonlight and know where you are going very well

ditches, stumps, snares that are obvious in the day become 'brick walls' that can stop you in your tracks

easy to get lost too if you don't have a point of reference

you have no idea how much noise you can gen"

"*I don't like NOD's. I highly prefer not using them, and that's always been my stance. It narrow's your vison from 170 Deg to maybe about 45 Deg (Yes/No?)... not to mention that using NOD's ruins your >natural< night vision. The light output from the NOD's is the equivalant of stairing at a light source itself."

"Unless you absolutely had to go at night then don't. If you do at least go an open route (no woods or city) that you know.

I've gone on nightly "patrols" with friends of mine through fields, woods and even along highways that we thought we new well because we drove along them many times. During these trips we had to deal with thorn bushes that came from nowwhere, small trees you didn't see until they smacked your tidbits and ditches that looked small from the road or a distance, but could really hurt you if you fell in.

If I had Zack on my tail I would not want to be attempting to outrun or manuever him at night in these conditions.

So I vote for daytime since sight is the best bet."
