We’re basically playing a game of tag. First person inside a tank wins!
Honestly, I think the only issue with thermal/night vision is that I can see through things that I shouldn’t be able to. Thermal and night Vision scopes are realistic to a point, navy seals don’t do night operations without wearing night vision goggles on their helmets. I think that thermal vision should work a little differently but hey, it’s an old game and I think that DICE is concerned about other things. BF4 has always been a Rock Paper Scissors type of combat, each weapon and vehicle has an opposing weapon or vehicle attachment what not that counters it.
then give the ability to all infantry as well.
Either it makes sense realistically or it doesn’t. One way or the other, it’s heavily imbalanced towards vehicles. A 2x scope is not enough for someone who wants to use a longer scope(3.4x up to 40x).
Or make the optics blind out when you look at lights at least
I’m on board with this. More realistic weapon customization and soldier customization. Armor, gadgets, weapons the whole 9. I also think that a 2x scope is good for pretty much nothing other than close encounters. I use a PLD to spot and then switch to my sniper to take the shot. It’s a frustrating system that takes way too much time.
I’ve always thought they should make the thermals have a certain range, say 150m then the image is too distorted for long range use
