NVG's (just hear me out)

[slim temple]

this game is so much fun but i think we need actual nvg goggles (not the scope) in the game. Don't make them easy to get maybe have them as like a late game item when preparing for the final quest or smthing i just think there neccisary. or maybe even have them as a mission item

[glass kayak]

Might be fun if certain anomalies or enemies messed with your nvgs.

Could also be seeing stuff in nvgs that you normally wouldn't and vice versa.

[final frigate]

if done properly it could be a monocle that eliminates your depth perception like a real one, and have collision so you're out bonking your weapon against it trying to aim

[agile wind]

They're in the game files as far as im aware

Ill try to find a clip hold on

If artifacts still had a 'use' function like the first game, it would be easy enough to bring back in the 'Night Eye' from the first, but I agree with the idea.

[barren flower]

night vision scope 🤤

[grizzled flume]

I hope it gets added as an artifact powered item

Whenever the lab gets added

[peak verge]

but night eye kinda ass because you lose your hand slot, woulda been better if it had a toggle function like Press "use" to toggle it, and as long as its on your inventory (that pocket slot) keeps your night vision on. Wonder if there''s some mod that does that for the first game 👀

I would say ones should be able to mess with it, like the conduit or the slider when they come out would be a fun concept, but also that sniper and scout mimics should be able to see them on you

Screw it, can we just make the slider slenderman at that point, lol. I know somone is gonna mod that

[dim oar]

yes you loose a hand, but it also becomes an in-set balance. do you see MUCH further than your flashlight and use a pistol/smg, or do you keep both hands on your rifle and stick with your head lamp. It also had the advantage of not presenting a tracable light, where as NVGs rely on MINISCULE amounts of light to amplify and create images, even just low level IR gives some image in a pitch black room. If the balance is done right there's no reason both can't be done, even before adding hard counters. Hell I'd say at that point make thermals the high end solution. Monicle/artifact, bi-lense, quad/thermals, three tiers right there.

[civic cypress]

On that, mayhaps end game you could get a pouch that would allow you to keep it active, like an equipment slot

So early game its a trade off, late game you can have it on and have both hands free

[peak verge]

based stalker ;3

[civic cypress]

Yep, lmfao

I Dont own the second game yet but I'm doin the 1.0 beta rn I think I grabbd a night eye recently wonder how different it is from the main branch or not 🤔

[dim oar]

sure, but then you need a different trade off having access to multiple grades of vision. Just like the first having it's durability tick down works to begin with, but I'd say the hands-free device ticks the durability faster. Once again you have access to diferent vision grades, and at that point your ability to recoup the artifact should balance it well enough.

[peak verge]

later on the downside of getting a night vision artifact is... you didnt get a regen one instead 😢

[civic cypress]

Right, that works

[peak verge]

love my heating crystals~

[civic cypress]

I hope they make regen balls less common

[peak verge]

maybe! excited to see the modding possibilities for the sequel

[civic cypress]

Sadly a quest player

So i dont get mods yet

[peak verge]

ahh its cool that you guys get multiplayeer though right>?

[civic cypress]
