In a River City Night just now, my teammates and opponents realized that the bug with night vision "turning itself off" happens to many players at the same instant. In our case, 4 players who were not near each-other and who were on different teams, reported this at the same time. It happened twice in a very short base rush game.

Before someone starts QQing "sync drop," no, it was a PUG and two people asked about the night vision at the same instant. That is what led us to figure out it was happening to, at least, every player who typed on chat at all during that match.

Might be all 16 players?

Same happened to me in Frozen City. Didn't realise it was more than just me until someone piped up with "Does Night Vision have a timer now?".

Unfortunately I was unable to answer the guy as this patch seems to have screwed my ability to press enter to send chat messages.

I occasionally had this before with thermal, rarely. Since patch, the new night vision seems to bug out and turn off like 50 percent of matches. Have to hit the key twice to turn it back on (as if the first time is to turn it off, even though it is off). Usually also comes with a bit of a frame stutter.

I had this with Heat Vision ...
if it happens it is always within the first minute of the battle.

I press H, Heat Vision goes Online and switches itself off after 1-2 seconds.
Then the H-Key gets unresponsive for several seconds (maybe 10-20) until I am able to switch to Heat Vision again (afterwards, HV stays activated without problems)
