Night Vision, Should it be removed?

[HurlockHolmes 0]

I have had night vision for awhile now, I gotta say, this is one of the most game breaking things I have seen. You can murder almost anybody on the coast and never be caught and killed. It really isn't fair at all for people just starting out to get gunned down with almost no chance to defend themselves.

It needs to be removed, I enjoyed the game much more when it was traversing through dark forests in a small group that was only lite by a flare.

The only real downside is that if somebody notices you wearing them, they will probably kill you for them. Just because "hur dur Night Vision". Which is probably why everybody who has night vision kills on sight or just stays away from people.

Also I have heard rumors of TWS Scoped weapons being in this game, I have not seen any at all, but if they are in this.......... what.... the.... fuck.

Anyway that is my little bit on Night Vision and TWS, though I am probably the only one that thinks this so I will just be ignored or bashed on.

Haters gunna hate.

You, sir, are so right in so many ways!

I think methods to obtain night vision should remain. But outright goggles might actually be a bit much.

Maybe what we need is a night vision optic that goes in the binocular slot. Low zoom comparatively, but of course wonderful clear night vision.

That way you can SPOT someone, but you can't use it to aim a shot unless they're standing perfectly still or something.

I think NVG should remain but have a power source similar to what is planned for flashlights.

I would actually be okay with this.

How about the ability to build/construct night vision? Is that even possible to implement?

Have to acquire the different pieces and make them. Like the vehicles.

I really liked the Fallen Earth crafting. I enjoy the vehicle crafting in DayZ as well. Would love to see more of it.

They are pretty darn rare. I've been playing this since it came out and I have yet to find one pair. Maybe I'm just not looking at the right places? Idk.

The rangefinder has built in NV and basically does this except with a greater zoom. They are good for scoping out a town undetected before entering it with a light source. I agree that standard NV goggles are too much though.

Perhaps there is a way to introduce batteries that are needed to power the goggles for a certain amount of time?

Even with power limitations, that small period of time where they can be used is just asking for abuse.

I still get killed while wearing night vision 3 times now. . . .

Problem is that aside from nightvision, tweaking graphic and gamma settings always makes a huge difference.

Personally I'd be happy if nightvision was removed or made more rare/random, so finding one would be more a matter of luck, rather than farming/camping.
