What maps (if any) are NVGs useful in?
Title. As far as I can tell, NVG works perfectly fine in the shooting range (which is pretty illuminated funnily enough) but on actual darker maps, the maps are insanely bright and saturated in NVGs. It's really weird. Maybe that's intentional, but why do they work fine in the shooting range?
Maybe I missed a map that they actually work in, in which case please let me know. But I would love for NVGs to actually be a viable choice, and not a gimmick. And also, an actual pitch black map where they are REQUIRED unless you really want to rely on a flashlight would be awesome. Maybe find a way to manually disable power to a building and then NVGs become very helpful. (unless that's already a thing but I haven't seen it. I have not experimented much with the game as of now just because i'm still learning and just got it recently so I may sound oblivious)

Most maps have dark areas, or corners that NVGs can easily be used for. Personally unless the group I play with are running alot of CS gas, I bring NVGs. Does help you can easily toggle them on an off, and unlike some other games there isn't eye adjusting for putting them on/taking them off. Even in brightly lit areas or when looking at lights they aren't overly blinding.
Two maps that I've played quite a bit and always bring them on is Port or Car Dealership.

They are cool if you can get everyone to use nvgs and ir laser, but since the enemy has wallhacks you will never make that navy seal stealth approach.

The lobby seems to be baked correctly for the NVG's but the other maps are not optimized for them...

'Remember... the game is still in early access...

I hope the devs will rebuild the maps at some point though...

NVG are really useful on your shield user.

NVGs intensity remind me of insurgency sandstorm, its uber intense as well.

NVGs are beneficial for the IR laser, but, are only usable in some parts of some maps. Normally, I suggest CBRN or Ballistic Face Shield, but for the Winery (whatever the Militia level is) I suggest NVGs all the way. 99% of that map is totally dark, and it's also one of the few maps that silencers are worth it.

Would be nice if you could actually cut power to a location the only thing I ever use to the gas mask.
