![]() No, he's right it is very hard to see the enemy. Its as if looking down the road becomes blury or something. It's hard to describe but other players seem to blind into the background making it hard to see them. This is why the IRNV is so popular. If you could actually see clearly whats 40 feet in front of you the IRNV would be moot. If they do nerf or remove the IRNV I believe a lot of people will stop playing the game. As it made it a lot easier to see people. Which shouldn't be the case. You should clearly see people in this game. If, by your suggestion, have to always use Q like a crutch before firing it's because there is something odd about distant players in the game. Yes, you are right, we do have to consistently use Q in order to see people but it shouldn't be that way. We should clearly see people without pressing Q.

![]() I agree. He is totally right about not seeing the enemy. On my particular monitor, its pretty difficult to see enemies. On some other monitors I've seen playing the game, its much easier. With my monitor, if I think someone is around, press Q. Guess what? A little red triangle will pop up and identify your enemy. ![]() So yeah. Use Q. Edit : Ultimately I am unsure as to why certain monitors are better than others. I am going to replace mine however, it is about 4 years old now, and could use to be upgraded.

just for shits and giggles I put some settings to low/med and once you take out all the extras like shadowing hbao etc. it's a whole lot easier to spot enemies, they kind of just stick out more. Inrv definitely needs to get fixed or taken out completelely. |

![]() What I'm guessing is refresh (maybe 120hz) and/or pixel density. I have the same issue with BC2 of sorts. I think my monitor just has a hard time with smaller details. Watching the game on other monitors some of them appear to be able to show smaller details easier. Hard to explain. Laugh all you want, doesn't change anything.

1. The game comes with very high contrast. What that does is make dark areas black. For example, someone outside trying to look inside a building. It's hard to see if someone is there so you spam Q. Or any dark area for that matter. 2. Blinding flashlights, lamps, other lights and sunlight that can cast sun flares. Again, this makes it hard to see anyone at a reasonable distance unless you spam Q. Unlike the contrast problem you might see something but you can't get a fix on it. Oh and I love how team mate inadvertently blind you with their flashlights. I don't understand why it doesn't have a FF on/off feature so that people on the same team are immune to that. 3. Blue tint. For me the blue tint makes it hard for me to distinguish the difference between an enemy's head or a branch. That's because everything has the same tint to it nothing stands out. Like a helmet which is of a different color, etc. But when you combine all of them together you begin to see the greater picture here. No, it's not the monitor. Even if you believe you have a crappy one. You might believe it has something to do with 120hz but that's not it at all. The pixel density has nothing to do with the things I've described about the game so that ain't it either. So yes, I do laugh. But the issues is that those features in game need to be removed more so then the IRNV. If they just did that no one would use the IRNV to start with. If they did they wouldn't have any noticeable advantage because the overall IQ of the game would improve. What the IRNV actually does is: -remove the blue tint -remove the high contrast -remove any sun flare, etc Even though it colors enemies a specific color the point is they can see them. Which is what they want. Have a look at this thread/post. Below are a few other threads: http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/b...vs-better.html http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/b...-extended.html http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/b...-settings.html http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/b...ve-please.html Look at this and you will see that after step 15 distance things become hard to see. Sure, you can get use to it and think it's ok but in reality it's not and should be changed. Here is where I got that image from. link They really need to go back to step 15 and add the sun (without blinding you) and call it a day. It's not like people are asking for something impossible, it's already there. They simply took it 3 steps to far. And as the thread theorizes, they believe it was a performance saving feature for consoles. Something like the fog of war. If so, I would actually prefer to fog segments of the some maps at step 15 since it doesn't allow you to see all of the map anyway. Last edited by ECH1 : Nov 29, 2011 at 09:48 PM. |

![]() For those having trouble spotting the enemy, Lower monitor contrast, raise in game brightness, disable FXAA & HBAO/SSAO, enable Transparency AA if you have the muscle, raise digital vibrance.

![]() I've been absolutely beasting on people without an IRNV scope. In fact, I use iron sights and other scopes more than it. It definitely isn't as overpowered as everyone makes it out to be. Sure, enemies stick out like a sore thumb when you use it, but it doesn't provide any level of zoom and completely gives you tunnel vision, too, because it takes up the entire screen. I think people are making a big fuss out of nothing. You definitely can defeat players using IRNV scopes by playing carefully, approaching bases from their flanks, and paying very close attention to your radar. Quote:

![]() Is there a way to set weapon loadouts so they are always the same? Like if your playing recon, can you select the mod0 so it defaults there allways? It used to be the same but it always changes now. ![]()

![]() Yep, set your server filters to only play on ranked. I'd also suggest staying away from Hardcore servers for a while too since you can't spot (Q-key) and no map/targets. I guess I'm strange as I have no problems seeing enemy troops. I guess I've got too many hours clocked in BC2, plus I do tag the Q key like I'm playing Track & Field most of the time....

![]() the lamest thing dice has done is the flash light mount on the gun. what are they really trying to do in the first place? to show off the lighting or something. non of the maps is dark enough that needs a flash light. this is the most annoying thing about this game, the smoke, fog, sun already is annoying. the flash light is even brighter than the sun in day light time. what the heck lol |
