No nightvision goggles?

[Subtitles]

Has anyone come across any of these? I have seen posts that mention they are not in the game.

In Russia, goggles night vision you

[Simon Draco]

Maybe they saved them for the dlc, was hoping they'd be in the game. even zero sievert and GAMMA had them, would help alot in this game as the buildings and forests can get dark at night....plus I just love nvg in games as it seems they are so neglected and bugs me when absent in most modern military themed games.

No they aren't

I mean lets be real here. Actual military grade night vision goggles aren't cheap, and this is Russia. They're using AKs patched together with bubble gum.

I'm assuming that they did the same thing in STALKER 2 as they did in the first games... Only the high-end suits have access to them.

I don't see why cobbled together ones couldn't make their way to the Zone, or civilian grade ones at least. Seems plausible.

They're most likely nowhere to be found until a bit later in the game, as in the originals.

they had them years ago just fine, stalkers obviously haven't been chucking them into rivers as several npc's are shown wearing them.

My pet theory is there being some engine limitation on animation ammounts, or level designers compalining.

If there's some sort of psy or other player effect they might be able to mod that as night vision?

Yeah, I thought we could get an NV then I can finally do see in the night but nah.
It wasn't in the game at all and we got to rely on the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ Flashlight the whole game.

You know that Chernobyl is in the Ukraine and not Russia, even if some Russians would like to see it that way. You also already know that there are Western weapons and futuristic gauss cannons in this game and not just the Russian old ones.
Russian weapons are also less vulnerable to defects than western ones and, you won't believe it, the russians also have night vision and thermal, otherwise they wouldn't be able to compete with the USA. Furthermore, the game is set in an unspecified future which means not in the times of the former Soviet Union.

No matter how you try to spin it for yourself, there is no realistic reason why there should be no night vision or thermal in this game.
