Was replying to the person who said they've found zero mods for eyes... FYI. Just forgot to quote it.
And yes, I know... I have Cyberpunk 2013, 2020 and Red. So yes I know Nightvision is basic options for eyes.

Probably because this game has been rush to release just before Christmas..
have you guys forgotten? CDPR is still working on it and is a real AAA company when it comes to games.
IIRC the game has been delayed twice and has received DEATH THREATS because of it. I am guessing that would shake everyone and anyone.
So of course the game was then rushed. BUT from what I have seen so far, every problem can be fixed, and once CDPR releases the modding tools, they would most likely be open to test some mods and merge it into the main game, and if not, at least give some stamp of approval or something.
I have only played CP2020 and none of my characters ever got to the stage where eye cyberware was the next thing to get. I think i got the smart link, strength stuff and healing nano bots (or whatever it was called) first.
and since we know that there are scopes that create 2 vision environments at the same time ( the blue (not the rarity) NV scopes) we can actually hold our breaths that we will get something like it, soon enough for our Kiroshis.

This is fair. I try not to be to critical at this stage, but I misspeak sometimes.
Yea, im one of those that thinks the game is way to dark in many areas, there has to be another illumination option than complete darkness almost everywhere at night or indoors.
No one force them to make unrealistic deadline, they even said in the conference with investors that they felt "no pressure" to release the game right now...
They made mistake now they are going to pay for it and they deserve it.
I agree. Before I upgraded V's optical cyberwear, I figured nightvision would be a feature
Right. I happened to check out that building before the mission, tried to look around, some areas were so dark I ended up leaving. It was neat to go back for a reason, though.
Glad I found this thread. So far I've run across two missions that I can't complete because I can't see where to go. Definitely going to try the night vision scope workaround but they definitely need to come up with something to address the total darkness issue. I'd be happy with a dorky LED headlamp.
This is how much, just for optics, is missing from this game that should be in
well atleast the technology exists in game, it deff can be too dark, but I went crazy with my tv settings (like an hour diving into advanced color settings with a guide for my tv) and got it looking much much better for all my games, and tv watchingThere are night vision scopes. Not sure if they are specifically for sniper rifles but here's an image of the one on my sniper rifle.
Edit: Just went down to Wilson and bought another one that functions way more like night vision goggles. It's also just for sniper rifles so it would mean that you would have to constantly carry around a sniper rifle with you but it works.
I wondered about lack of IR or thermal myself but then figured that issue with implementing those would mean that then why enemies shouldn't have them too.
I played on 55" TV and didn't had that much trouble with darkness in some segments, but I have calibrated it's movie and game mode. If you play on TV with HDR I recommend checking HDR settings, because that can sometimes play havoc with gamma levels in games.

NPC AI CAN see in the dark LOL... I mean if they cannot I have not experienced that darkness allows me to sneak better. Anyway, I tired some experimenting with the motorcycle head light (in various location son various materials) and I see no reason why this game cannot have a flashlight as the head light functions in exactly the same way and THAT is working in the game.
So at the very least this is good news for the possibility for a mod to add a flashlight or head light into the game Fallout 4 style.
I was thinking more how far NPC's can spot you. I used their limited vision range a lot to my advantage, but it wouldn't make sense if they had infrared because you would appear as this glowing object in their vision. Some other issues too.
Cyber flashlight, I think it would work implanted in finger tip, left hand perhaps. I came to think, maybe issue is actually about controls. On Xbox controller at least, how do enable / disable it unless it's separate item, like a weapon? So standard flashlight, that would be then, but then it takes one weapon slot.
Came to think, one of the Gears of Wars games made self conscious joke about that, no flashlights in that universe either.
But in this game, as separate item it's possible and I would take it, despite possible inventory hassle.
Then there's that enemies should react to light, so flashlight would only emit light on certain spectrum visible only via implant player has?
I feel we do not have to over think this. You see the Enemies on the mini map (even around corners) so I guess it is fair if they see you with a flashlight, a simple bonus in the code should be easy for the DEV (as mod makers have add torch and flashlights in other games with simple tricks like making it have a sound the NPC can only hear). Or just make it easy and say you cannot sneak with a flashlight on in the dark.
I do not really know the engine so I am just speculating. But after doing some tests with the motorcycle head lamp I went from no it is probably not possible for the engine to HEY this should be easy for this single player if they put even a little time into it.
For me the flashlight would be a QOL feature so I do not care if this has no effect on the NPC. But it would not be difficult to have SOME effect with NPC.

Implant and flashlight combination is convoluted but I was actually thinking about tech aspect and that, I'm not that much to background material and that, but they kinda have a point too. So compromise in that aspect too and what comes to NPC AI, I think simple, scenarios with least amount of variables might be most likely to get implemented.
I'm really kind of stuck with what options there are with controller. All these years and this is like a first time I actually liked to see developer answer to something and also most unlikely time for that to happen.
