Well, I was thinking that since they reworked the beach crash scene with night ambiance that maybe they were rethinking it and possibly going to try to do a day/night thing.
That was game engine animation. When you notice that you can actually control your character it is daylight. I am thinking it is an issue with game play day/night for whatever reason. I saw that as well. Or who knows, maybe they are working on it now saving it for launch. There really is no way to tell at this stage.
