varmint rifle night sight

Post » Fri Dec 12, 2008 3:04 pm

well basically i have just come back to fallout nv after a month break. I changed my ps3 hard drive and reinstalled everything and i noticed that before my break the rifle night sight didn't work it was just like a normal sight. Now it works like a proper night sight and shows everything in a bluish light at night!

did this come in a patch or was it my ps3

Patch.

Personally, I hate it, it makes it harder to spot target around terrain with similar colour.

I don't know if it was bugged before but normally it works as a normal scope during day and night-vision scope during night.

Side question: which gun/scope turns things yellowish? I have this picture of a yellowish filter thru a scope but I can't remember which gun it went to....

Edit: NVM, loaded a game and based on the sight graphic I'd say it was the Varmint rifle in the 1.0 released version in my old screenshot. Interesting. It's kind of blueish/yellowish for me now instead of bright yellow.

This is strange the nightsight on the Varmit allways worked for me, even before the patch.

I'm starting to think I have a special less bugged PC version that they meant to release to everyone.

I've never had trouble with the night scope on the Varmint Rifle, but it seems the night scope turns everything yellow when you look through it in the morning or afternoon. At least that's what it seems to do on my 360.
Or it could be an intermittent bug and a strange coincidence.

Hm...well, I guess that's what happens to me then, too. At least it used to. The timing hasn't lent myself to noticing if it still does since the patch. I don't use it all that much anymore...

It has always shown in clear (daytime) and a greenish hue (night). Or at least on the 360...

On my game (PS3) My nightscope works as a normal scope, same at night, so I have no color filter, but its got a green outer ring and the center is like regular glass, so if I wanted to use 'night vision' I have to use the green filter on the edges of the scope. :unsure:

Mine works fine unpatched. It behaves like a standard scope during the day, though.
