need someway to look in the dark

[IvanPinesLol3]

so been playing the game for over 40hrs in 1.5 and 1 problem stood out to me, other than headlights there are no other ways to see anything in the dark. In some quest like saving delamin it's hard to find my way through the factory so i think it's better to add flashlight into the game

It's 2077, flashlights don't exist anymore. /s

Hopefully in the future we'll get a toggle for our eye cyberware that has night vision or something (some in-game scopes already have this iirc)

I would agree but it would also have to void stealth variables.

I downloaded the flashlight MOD from Nexus mods

Your gamma config is a little off. There is no place as dark in the game to really need a flashlight.

Yeah, Deus Ex had a perfect system with 4-tier vision enhancement:
tier 1 - nightvision
tier 2 - infravision
tier 3 - close range sonar
tier 4 - long range sonar
It can easily be translated into Cyberpunk's uncommon/rare/epic/legendary cyberware.

It was pointed milion times.
I think some developer mentioned it was intentional. And there are missions where dark plays a role.

Though I personally would consider it problem of those places/quests. Not having flashlight in that universe is odd, same as having "top" eyes cyberware and none has any kind of nightvision.

It is a detail but would be cool if there would be something.

One day

Sometimes I wish certain areas would be even darker.
(Maybe that's a bit too dark though.)

It seems like a trivial matter to put in a Kiroshi upgrade at the ripperdocs that allows you to toggle the same low light mode that some scopes have. It's low hanging fruit, I can't guess why it hasn't been done.

I dont have trouble like i said, i think its a gamma issue with some tv's/pc's. But this would benefit combat at night.

hum... Ping work fine in the dark

 

[medion_no]

But proper night vision is cooler. Right?

Yeah, indeed ! I was joking
(But I always Ping to see better the enemies in the dark. I play the night as often as I can)
edit : If a cyberware mod for kiroshi to see in the dark is added, for sure it will be installed on mine^^

The game was going to have night vision. Even one of the game's Technical Artists uploaded a video on YouTube and showed it and it seems to be pretty good. I don't know why they didn't include it in the final version of the game. The scanner mode in the current version of the game is not as bright as the one showed in the video.

 

[devivre]

Maybe the patch changed the gamma settings a bit, not sure. Might be worth adjusting this setting again.

Extra light definitely wasn't necessary before patch 1.5 ... but I did run into a similar problem too two days ago inside a building (for the very first time after two playthroughs...).

Aside from that, I agree that night vision would be cool...
Although I'd probably be too lazy too use it

The author state in the comments that it is activated automatically in dark areas in focus mode.
And that is, in my experience, rather an effect that doesn´t really allow you see more.

I also think that a proper flash light is much more helpful. But I really like that Night vision effect

Just pull out your Black Unicorn. They cranked up its glow a little

Need to test it, thx for this hint … one from things I so like on this game is that there always is something new to learn or find
