Contiene spoilers del equipo que van a meter, si no quereis destriparos como se ven las NVGs o los lasers ingame por ejemplo, no lo veais. Entre otras cosas destacan:
TACKLE NEW MISSIONS & OVERCOME EVOLVING AI
The Night Ops update introduces 22 completely new tasks, some specifically designed for nighttime, each offering fresh gameplay challenges and deeper immersion into the lore of Lamang Island. Tasks from the initial release have also been refined, providing a revitalized experience that will excite returning players.
You’ll also notice substantial improvements to enemy AI, adapting to the day/night cycle. Enemies now move with greater tactical awareness—patrolling, taking cover, and crouching to blend into their surroundings. Yet they are not invincible.
When darkness falls, you can capitalize on their limited gear. Unlike you, their vision depends solely on flashlights or exterior lighting, giving you the edge to strike from the shadows while they remain vulnerable and off guard. Picture infiltrating high-intensity zones like Tiger Bay or Midnight Sapphire, cloaked in darkness, with fresh tactics for confronting your enemies.
Moreover, the chance of AI landing one-hit kills has also been reduced. They’re now less reactive to sound, and we’ve also introduced a more realistic sight system. With refined fields of view and dynamic distance recognition, you’ll gain those crucial seconds to slip out of sight or reposition. And this is only the beginning—we’ll continue refining the AI experience with each update.
PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF TACTICAL GAMEPLAY
NVGs in Gray Zone Warfare are designed to be as authentic as possible, mirroring real-life limitations and requiring precise skill to master. Just like in reality, analog NVGs amplify existing light rather than creating it, and they’re affected by a grain effect that intensifies in darker areas. We’ve also simulated their limited Field of View (FOV), with the device physically restricting your vision, and addressed depth of field realistically, with objects outside the focal area appearing blurred. All of this means you’ll need good practice to use them effectively.
Under NVGs, colors shift authentically—vegetation appears lighter, while metals, glass, and water turn darker—adding to the immersion. Unique details, such as a halo effect around light sources and a crisp view of stars in the night sky, further enhance the night-time experience. But NVGs won’t give you an easy advantage; intense light sources can trigger auto-shutdown, and muzzle flashes can disrupt your view. Wear and tear will add realistic effects like cracks, dirt, and blemishes on the lenses, mirroring real-world challenges.
NVGs also impact your weapon setup, as not all parts and attachments are compatible. For example, certain collimators have night vision modes with lower light intensities to ensure compatibility with NVGs, allowing the reticle to appear clearly without overwhelming brightness. On the other hand, optics without such adjustments can appear blurry or too bright when viewed through NVG.
Additionally, using a canted aim is particularly effective, allowing for a clearer line of sight without needing to adjust or remove your goggles. This setup is especially useful for close-quarters engagements or when aiming with a primary optic isn’t feasible due to NVG limitations, giving you flexibility and precision in diverse combat scenarios.
EXPERIENCE NEXT-LEVEL NVGS
Gray Zone Warfare empowers you to own the night with a range of night vision tools, each tier enhancing your situational awareness and giving you the precision and confidence to tackle complex combat scenarios.
Initially, you’ll start with the low-tier PVS-7, a single-tube night vision biocular with green phosphor. While it has two eyepieces, the image is generated from a single tube, offering a small FOV with reduced weight and complexity.
You can upgrade to the PVS-14, a monocular device known for high-quality image intensification and adaptability across combat scenarios as you progress. Widely regarded as the most versatile and popular night vision product, it’s a staple choice for diverse tactical needs.
At the top of your arsenal is the PVS-31A, a modern, lightweight, dual-tube night vision goggle system featuring advanced white phosphorus technology. It provides more situational awareness compared to monocular systems like the PVS-14. Each eye receives its image, creating a more natural field of view.
DOMINATE THE NIGHT WITH THE RIGHT TOOLS
Since NVGs amplify only existing light, you’ll need to equip yourself with available light sources like flashlights and lasers, each available in multiple levels based on their power and modes. Some flashlights are harmless in combination with NVGs, while others can even be used to disorient your enemies, as a strong light source can shut NVGs down.
You’ll have access to top-tier infrared (IR) lasers and illuminators that emit light in the invisible IR spectrum. Paired with NVGs, these tools reveal their ‘beam’ to you while keeping you concealed from anyone without similar equipment. IR lasers are invaluable for covert signalling, target marking, and precision aiming, while IR illuminators—a feature rarely seen in games—cast a broad, dispersed beam to illuminate larger areas. Both tools are essential in Night Ops, allowing you to navigate and light your surroundings without exposing your position to enemies lacking NVGs.
Additionally, you’ll have the option to use tracer bullets—special rounds that leave a glowing trail, allowing you to follow each shot as it streaks toward the target. Tracers aren’t just for accuracy; they’re a powerful tool for signaling and marking high-priority targets for your squad. In night operations, they cut through the darkness, offering limited but invaluable illumination along their path and adding a whole new layer to your tactical edge.
