Redeye's Infra red goggles

(PD_Agent47) #1

I just experienced a kind of bug with redeye , his infra red goggles isn’t highlighting the enemies … i could only see dark images … i think it’s a bug … but wanna know someone else experienced this !! Thank you

Pretty sure I’ve experienced this before although it appears to be quite rare. I’m not sure what causes it, but sometimes an enemy just won’t light up.

I keep thinking that maybe it’s an enemy that gets revived and that maybe how they get revived is causing it. However, they’ll get spotted if I turn the ability off and then back on.

But I just vaguely remember this happening a few times to me. I play Redeye frequently so if it happens again, I’ll try to figure out why.

As seen here, reported this 3 months ago.

I also reported another bug on his IR vision which still exists back in late January, which still hasn’t been fixed or even acknowledged on the forums.

It happens for two reasons:

  1. You kill them with your goggles on, and if they are revived while your goggles are still on they will no longer glow for you. You have to turn your goggles on and off again. It also doesn’t “spot” them for team mates either if they are not glowing, so it’s a pretty crucial bug.

  2. If you have your goggles on when the new spawn wave hits, the people who spawned during that period will not glow or be spotted.

I was finding the bug so annoying I pretty much haven’t used Redeye since I reported the bug the second time around. I know they have plenty of bigger things to work on but these are the kind of small lingering bugs that really piss some people off that never get fixed.

YUP had this as well. I think it might be on phantom sometimes, not sure? But they are faintly visible, but not like they should be normally.

Can confirm what Dox said. It occurs on spawn waves or revives, kind of annoying.

@Dox It’s a mess that such gamebreakers don’t get fixed ASAP.

It happens when an enemy spawns while you are still using the IR goggles. If you disable and then re-enable the IRG, they will be white like they should. Just reset them every time there are new reinforcements and you will be fine until this is fixed

That’s the reason why I’ve not used Redeye for months, this bug is way too annoying.

When they just respawn, u can’t do anything to them within 4 sec, after 4 sec, u can re-enable the IRG, and it will work again

Spotting works regardless of spawn shield.

This is definitely not just a ‘small inconvenience’. In heated combat you can bet there will be people who get rezzed and not being able to spot them (and see them yourself very well at all, either) is game breaking. Should definitely be fixed ASAP.

A sniper problem get fixed? Ha! Not before every little Proxy problem she has or ever could have is fixed! :stuck_out_tongue:
