Nightvision, it really helps.

Many people don't understand why I use nightvision.

But nightvision has so many advantages.
1)Easily distinguish players from surroundings
2)Weapons, rifles, sticking out behind a box or door will be more obvious
3)Cost only a thousand or so of your initial 5000 (have enough for ak or m4)
4)Turning on and off nightvision will make your enemy think you are not smart
5)Completely flared screen if a flashbang blows up in your face :roll:

Nonetheless, I recommend nightvision for all maps. Not on 100% of the time of course.

Many people don't understand why I don't use nightvision.

But nightvision has so many disadvantages.
1)Easily getting "distinguished" by other players.
2)Weapons, rifles, sticking out behind a box or door will be more obvious, which are also perfectly enough to see with the naked eye, just look.
3)Cost only a thousand or so of your initial 5000 (have enough for ak or m4). But eventually you do lose a thousand, for people that use the feature autobuy it will matter.
4)Turning on and off nightvision will make your enemy think you are not smart, wich you probarly aren't then.
5)Completely flared screen if a flashbang blows up in your face, which I can't really see as an advantage.

Nonetheless, I recommend a good video driver for all maps. On 100% of the time of course. Because with a good video driver, at least those of Nvidia.. you can adapt the colors of your screen. All you got to do is set them somewhat brighter and you can see things in maps you may have not noticed before. Normally you would have to buy a nightvision to see these things.

I'm not saying that what you said is wrong. This is just my opinion.

I find it much easier to spot players whether friendly/unfriendly with nightvision on. It enhanced the contrast without making any adjustments to the monitor.

every so often when i'm playing against someone who has nightvision i notice that the glow green when i shoot at them and it does no damage making the shooter angry for it saying he did no damage when it looked to him like he did

actually i like black, but they don't make a black nightvision because then you wouldn't see anything.
