I can only comment on the ESF IR. What that is concerned they significantly reduced the effective range of IR. It's now next to useless and actually makes you as good as blind if you're using it while flying rather than to spot infantry.

The thing is, at the distance IR used to kick in infantry size is ridiculously small. Your eyes are often useless at that range. A regular zoom is only good to have you crash into stuff you can't see because of the zoom.
Controversially if I'm allowed to fly low the IR will still light up infantry like a Christmas tree.

In my opinion they broke it further instead of fixing it.
