Actually the light amplification(aka the green blur) is the oldest one and its on the end of use , more and more night vision system are shifting toward the IR

the cost become to close the cost of the regular NA models and the size also become smaller !Don't forget that NA is dated from the end of WWII (if i remember right ).
Here few more :

this and thermal is the same then.

Exactly , you have high contrast and thermal differentiation at the same time .

Personally, I don't use NV - I haven't found a use for it yet.

You haven't found a use for it because it doesn't have a use in its current state. Heck, wasn't it you that meme'd about NV making the Forest Colony cave darker?

Hey man, the NDA was lifted when it went open beta. You can post literally ANYTHING from CB now.

So post away man. Post and post and post some more. Trot out those screenies.

Had I the foresight to take any before they changed it to green I would have posted them when I posted this poll:

http://mwomercs.com/...17#entry1491317

Would be great to see more votes in there. And some bumps by someone other than me, lol!

Basically meant that I took none while the NDA was active. Apologies for the confusion. On day 5 of 9 with work, the first 4 being 14+ (saturday was 17hrs) hour days, and managed to get sick in the process. Making coherent thoughts with keyboard device is difficult.

It's Lostech, they'll release it in a future patch for 10000MC. Just be patient.

MW4 NV was fine

All i know is that its garbage and it makes a map I like <river city> a map I wish I could just Dc from without screwing my team.
I HATE river city night. I hate hate hate hate it.
I hate it.

Also I have posted on this before and it usually brings out attacks by "HOMERS" that are in self administered Illusion about current state of the game

Everyone one else does too.

I like the MWO nightvision. Would be nice if the white glare was stripped or heavily toned down though.

[Gigastrike]

Thermal is better for most situations, but I still use nightvision at close ranges for the better detail.

Still could use a buff, though.

In all my years of gaming I've not once seen a light amplification system done correctly in any game, in any genre. Not once. The "NVG" mode in STALKER - Clear Sky is possibly the closest but even that doesn't properly model the sensitivity of 1st & 2nd generation light amplification tubes to near-IR light.

The night vision mode as-is in MWO is so terrible it looks like the Vempyr active-IR system developed by the Germans towards the end of WW2, i.e. grainy, very low resolution, very low amplification, no bright source protection and significant tube distortion due to improper (cheap & nasty) tube cathode accelerator field shaping. Yuck.

Normal vision + green colour + bloom around light sources = much more accurate for a nominal 2nd generation system.

Not to mention it is actually very painful on the eye balls. It is a horrible thing to look at. NV needs a fixin for sure.

Dude................



STOP RUINING PGIS IMMERSION!

[bloodnor]

people are aware that this is all being done using an engine that the devs have never used before and its still in BETA right?

[Valder]

Well... I also hope they fix the nightvision that makes caves darker...

[chewie]

You gotta remember guys, PGI is canadian, which makes it partly french.

This is french quality nightvision.



Be thankful that what we have isn't this bad. OR this good. Take your pick.

[Thorn Hallis]

I like my night vision. And I don't give a flying f' about "sense" in a fictional universe.

[Percimes]

Night vision reminds me of the old monochrome monitors from the 80s. Nostalgia aside, the contrast needs to be tone down a bit.
