refinery map is too dark

[creamcorn]

how do i fix this problem? everything about this map is too dark. anyone else have this problem? like i can't see any enemies because they just blend in with the shadows.
no other map has this problem. i've even set my brightness to max.
the only time the map isn't dark or anything is when i'm in the warehouse capturing C. everywhere else is too dark.

Gamma 2.4
High enough to make refinery visible, not high enough to make the game look bad or night maps too bright (for my screen anyway).

Is this true? Is this why I can't see ♥♥♥♥ during night maps and everyone seems to just rock the NVGs in and out doors?

That's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hilarious and sad at the same time.

What is this, DayZ?

As in, if gamma is too high then you don't need NVGs on night maps but lights are really bright. People wearing NVGs indoors are either using the full colour ones or just putting up with the brightness.

What?
The brightness with NVGs is so high, I might as well be staring into the sun with a telescope. I can't discern any shapes, forms or lights, it's just one big white washed flare for me unless the entire map is pitch black.

Maybe turn brightness down and gamma up.

Well I tried fiddling around to at least be able to see, but it's really 'either/or', I still feel like the flashlight works far better, as it also stuns AI.

no it doesn't really help.
i tried turning gamma up, but whenever i exit aiming down sights, the whole screen gets dark then a few seconds later it "adjusts". same thing when i enter a new room, or turn a corner. It's only on refinery though. i wonder if it's my computer...
