Don't like that you have to sitsleep to wait now.

I find it a bit of a hindrance having to find somewhere to sleep/sit in order to wait. I like playing in the Daytime instead of the night and when it's night i'd like to easily wait until it's daytime again. Just my personal preference, I Hope they add in a similar wait system to that Fallout 3 and New Vegas where as you can wait anywhere standing up.

I wasn't bothered by it personally, although it would be good if they had included some kind of feature where you could build a campfire and wait by that, ala Red Dead Redemption.

This has got to be one of the stupidist and most unnecessary of several questionable design choices Beth made. I'm usually defending them but this one is pointless. Hopefully it can be modded out, or at least mod in a portable lounge chair to drop so you can "sit" in it and wait.

All well and good but the strategic use of wait is now gone it seems. How is one supposed to "wait until night" to attack "that raider camp over there" that you came across. I personally have not come across this problem yet, but I can very easily conceive of it happening. Unless all raider camps now have a "waiting room" outside. Is there a "hold music" radio station on the Pipboy?

This has crossed my mind too. But then I wonder if night time raid has any advantage. Does darkness actually help with sneak or reduce enemy efficacy?

There are quests where you have to wait. A big one for the RR comes to mind. Luckily, there are chairs to sit on.

But I don't get this really. Why change wait?

It might not. But this is then a needless change that hampers the "Play how you like" and Role play aspects. And what about Night Person and Solar Powered? Don't bother taking them because you will not be able to wait until day/night in many cases...
