F11 doesn't activate night-vision anymore? (Read first)

[Foncible]

I'm sitting here spamming F11 and holding F11 and the night-vision on my ballistic mask and night-vision masks won't activate. I know you can go into the interaction menu and activate, but you used to be able to quickly activate it by just pressing one key. Why does Rockstar have to keep adding anti-quality of life updates? Like helmets, they get unequipped for no reason starting some years ago. Edit: And helmets stay off until you re-equip them unlike hats.

This has been bugged since the beginning.
You can only use the F11 shortcut button, when you first activated it once via the menu.

Huh? You mean for the combat helmets? I'm talking about the masks. Also the combat helmets are now bugged as well, you used to be able to quickly activate the thermal by holding F11 again during the animation to put down goggles.

I just tried pressing F11 and holding F11 after activating my Ballistic Masks night-vision and it won't turn off.

Edit: The main point is, when Doomsday came out, you could hold F11 to activate night-vision on the new masks. Sometime this year, in 2018, that has stopped working.

And if they removed F11 to activate thermal/night vision because it bugged the helmets, that's so annoying because I don't even wear helmet because of what was stated in the opening.

"Fixed an issue that caused thermal vision from the Quad Lens combat helmets to sometimes turn off when climbing obstacles."

This is the only thing I've seen in the patch notes that could have done it.
