That's why I think it needs tuned down. It's too good right now. It ignores every graphical distraction in the game. Smoke, Explosions, gun flash, sun glare, everything.
I just want them to change it so I can begin using different scopes I use it on every weapon I can, because target acquisition is way higher on it when you remove a lot of the graphics.

In vehicles it's overpowered but for infantry it's just another scope choice. The only thing thats OP about it is seeing thru smoke/seeing cloaked infiltrators which should both be removed.

Personally, I prefer zoom on Vehicle Optics...

...Then again, I actually shoot other vehicles from a distance instead of farming Infantry...

One of the trade-offs is that it works like shit on Esamir.

But there's no downside to strapping NV/Thermal on a vehicle and highlighting every enemy in the radius.

Yeah. I can't gun in a lib without it (or thermal)

Just because they nerfed air due to a ground swell against the balance that doesnt mean they will nerf everything that gets a whine thread.

Wow, what an explanation of your previous statement.

Seems all you can do is insult. Do you even know what the word discussion means? Probably not...

Imo there should be almost no contrast on NV during the day, IR could get a LITTLE more contrast but shouldnt be able to see terrain.

Just a quick thought about how to solve this, I would be fine with almost everything that made it a stupid move to use those in daylight.

Oh yea, and make night last a bit longer, otherwise it might not be worth it switching to IR/NV. Maybe a longer night on Amerish and a shorter one on Indar? Just a thought, discuss...

It\s enchanced vision and night scope in one. It\s working just fine. Can\t use any other scope myself because the dot in holo scopes isn\t bright enough to actually see it always.. So would have to use iron sights what have limited range in my opinion what\s far less than the range of the weapon. Sniping with pistol.. because my LMG can\t shoot far because of it\s scope ain\t really cool.

I use a small neon-orange sticker on my monitor as an aid for the scope.

Started doing this because of the x-hairs of the IR/NV... I found myself losing track of them somewhat often and shooting left or right of center.

The sticker also makes for a fantastic hip fire target.

The old methods still work, yes. I have the exact same trouble with the IRNV as you do; I lose track of the verticle crosshair and find myself shooting way to the side a lot of times (usually to the right for some reason). I don't know why the crosshair color is black instead of red or something that actually stands out compared to black/white.

I might have to get me some little orange dots. I always lose track.
