I never use the thermal scope during the night. It takes away the already range shortened sr and sasr SD's. I find it easier to spot an enemy with a regular scope and keeping track of them is no problem at all. M y tv is nice and sharp so it really doesnt appear pitch black on the screen or anything.

Have you ever even played Socom 3? night vision illuminates players perfectly fine. I have played Storm Front night before, I sniped with an SR and a 12x and Medium scope. I remember this, there is actually one snipe from it in my video. No thermal, and I still did just fine.

I mean, it could just be that I'm that awesome of a player, but I find it no harder than playing daytime.

Night maps take all strategy out of games. You cant camp anywhere because everyone is light up even moreso than their surrounding terrain. 3 of 4 maps in my clanwar last night were night, and the entire thing was just 1 huge melee brawl. Its nothing more than luck, who happens to run behind someone first.

It's not luck. It still can be strategy. You just need a group of people willing to do assigned tasks. Also, it doesn't take more skill for cheaters who raise brightness.

Night is just a camp fest, doesn't take more skill.

Day > Night

Always

Sniping in dark w/ thermal is easier than sniping with regular scope at day. Especially is someone is hiding with a ghille.

Night maps remove most tactics from games now. You cant camp, because even on normal settings the players stand out WAY more than any surroundings. The most that happens even with organized clans is that it turns into nothing more than a melee brawl. You pretty much have to run around in NV, which means first person and harder to keep in contact with others, other than just the radar. Comes down to luck on who can be the one to end up behind someone faster, or who has the fastest aim for headtohead brawls.
