For the visions mods, I personally think they are useless in every scenario.
IR is quite useful when shooting machines that are behind dense vegetation.
I haven’t voted on that, because I use FMJ in AG5 and AP in KVM89.
As above - I use FMJ in X-AG4 and AP in X-KVM59
The other 3 besides thermal I agree with @megatron5634 and @Aesyle I use both of most ammo types too but if you had to choose on type to use for the rest of the game what would it be and you really use all vision modes an equal amount? Surely there is one or 2 you use more.
My apologies it didn’t cross my mind that each gun would have different uses I will edit. You are good to go👍🏼

Here, you can not expect that all players have to use only one or two at a time and no more. I use three vision modes on daily basis and depending on situation.
It’s like when you say: “There are only 2 main weapon slots in the game and surely, there are only two weapons you’ll use?”. Well, No. My 1st char has 5 main weapons that i use depending on situation.
For most accurate poll results, all polls should be with multiple choices and up to with as many choices as there is per poll. E.g when people use both versions of 7.62mm (e.g FMJ in KVM59 and AP in AG4), they can choose both ammo types.

The pump action (since its exp.) has Birdshot and the Sjöqvist uses Slug with my chars.
@Wolf_Spirit07 Could you add Full vision, and thermal and OPV at the same time to the Poll?
Take in consideration What Aesyle said, I use 5 weapons at the same time and various types of ammo.
She has a point.

I have a question, how can anyone use Slug ammo type?
Thermal vision is essential in detecting enemies at medium and long distances through binoculars and scopes.
OPV is useful when enemies are behind cover or obstacles and you don´t know where they are.
Night vision is useless because it´s not realistic and does not improve vision during the night.

I think they are very useful to look around a large area without using binoculars (ir is my favourite). Also x ray is useful if you are stuck behind a wall.

Also please can someone explain what spotting is?
I’m mainly a AG4/Ai-76 and PVG90 user, and I only got a thermal scope on my PVG; the ARs get the red dot scope. My binocs have the triple visor + tech view skill, so I can spot and track enemies, most of the time while out of combat.
Ammo-wise, I usually just use what I find, but I tend not to switch during combat, so I stack one kind of ammo until I got a decent amount while using the rarer type (to unclutter my inventory).
I use birdshot for my exp shotty tho - everything else seems ineffective.

Poll10:
Doesn’t the word “preferred” indicate to choose the one vision-mod or the one ammo type you prefer in most cases? I read it like that.

You can use 2 at the same time, or 3 with the full vision set.
Those are also options.
The author just did not remember there are more ways to use them.
The same with the weapons.
At the same time? So you can turn on IR and Tech view at the same time. How?
You know what I meant.
There are people who only use Thermal and that´s it.
Then there are people who use Double Vision modules, they exist you know?
And then there are people who use Triple vision modules.
So it makes sense what i´m saying.
The double and triple vision modules are a singular option.
Never said anything about Tech view which is not even a real vision mod, it´s a “perk”
There are various vision modules:
- Thermal
- Night vision
- OPV
- Full vision
and then the combinations: - OPV-NV
- OPV-THERMAL
- THERMAL-NV
Tech view aka spotting is a skill you get on the skill tree which allows you to highlight enemies there is also 2 other skill giving you an analysis of the machine it’s distance and difficulty. (If you have the machines blueprint it shows you weakspots and components)

Now I do. Maybe @Wolf_Spirit07 meant what preferred vision we like when using a vision module.

Well I always use OPV-Thermal, and use both" prefered vision" so I see it as an option to the “question”.
Just a missing one from the Poll.
And as Aesyle i can not vote, or at least I choose not to , because i feel it does not make the statistics data correct.
To add to that: Tech View does give yellow outline around the machine if you have clear line of sight to it. Tech View is also used to mark enemies, with red outline, if you have Enemy Marking skill unlocked. However, one doesn’t need to have Spotting Intel skill to use Enemy Marking in Tech View.
Also, guys, lets not argue over how complete or incomplete the poll is. It was pointed out that the poll could’ve been better by including all vision modules and having multiple choice. That’s something to keep in mind when creating future polls.
Moreover, I was the one, who wrote “preferred” in the topic title since original title didn’t say nothing about what kind of poll it is; and i corrected the topic title before anyone replied in it. So, you guys can look towards me for using the “preferred” word in the topic title.
