Whenever i move around the map during day time, i always get this weird auto-brightness mechanic that makes the whole screen dark. I have to angle my aim at about 45 degrees to the ground or sky to be able to get a decent light balance for my field of vision... it's very irritating and takes away from this game. I don't recall seeing this issue for PC players so it's not a "Well, DayZ is a tough survival game ya know".

This is not related to weather or night time. This doesn't not change in 1st person or 3rd person mode.

It seems to be more predominant (but not exclusive to) in hilly areas where the sun is trying to "peek" over the hills and trees.
