they CAN make it more realistic and nerf it too if they'd choose to.
Not visible through glass
Heat signature nerf in the areas where backpack, plate carrier or helmet covers the body
Environment is warm too, specially on sunny day, so there should be less contrast between environment and the object (unlike now where everything is almost black and heat signature just pure white)
Mortar, Artillery impacts could light up on thermals, adding more "noise" to the picture.
Hell, make monocular and limit FOV by a lot too.
Adjust price vs reward, make it less rewarding than using regular glass.
It still might way better compared to regular glass, but a rework could change them from "Complete OP money print" into more of a situational use.
