Is it something that crytek has forgotten to patch or do you think it'd a balance thing?

Do you find that you're less stealthy because of it.
Im thinking about using a laser sight, but I know after performing ledge grabs while ins tealth mode that the laser will become visible and I dont want that to interfere with my stealth ability.

I think they should be visible on close range from laser pointer light or be off when in stealth mode even for player who using it. That would be more truly for that game I think)

When you open, then close your visor the laser becomes visible
