Unless you crank your gamma up, you can't see anything. With NVGs on, all you get is a mass of barely-distinguishable green and with Thermals it's almost pitch-black, except for 'Mechs.
With so many obstacles, it makes it excruciating to play a Light on.
Cranking the gamma up is, frankly, not a solution.

Haven't played this yet. Can't wait to try mechs going 123-131 in the dark.

You could use the thermal and low light vision. that does work.

At least my aim won't be any worse than it is during the day!

I play with default gamma and brightness and I love the new dark bog. God forbid mechs actually be hard to spot...

It's not being hard to spot, it's not even the 'Mechs hiding. It's the fact that it's pitch black and everything is hard to discern from everything else. Important things, like tree roots.

Did you not read the original post? The only reason I'm posting at all is because those don't really work.

Funny, I haven't had any trouble with them.

Well, IDK. Running stock gamma settings with color-calibrated Dell U2711 monitor, it's pretty inky. =/

Dark bog seems pretty good to me. If anything it seems pretty bright now that mechs have been brightened up. Also running default settings.
