What happens when the bug occurs? When looking through Thermal binoculars and CR2 night vision, enemies are not illuminated hot/bright white. Also, the thermal binoculars cannot see through objects/walls, so this in conjunction with the targets being dark (as with no heat signature) these items are rendered completely useless

Nothing came up on "the google," so I am wondering if any others have been experiencing this since Nov 14....

Thermal Binoculars and the CR2 Night Vision scope are used to see heat signatures of targets. During use of these items, targets in your view appear "hot" or bright white against the "cold" (green, thermal binoculars - or - blue, night vision scope) environment. Between 50-75% of the time, targets have no heat signature - they are cold, and indistinguishable (and as such, cannot be seen through objects/walls with the thermal binoculars).

plz fix so can rek teh n00bs kthx
