tbh its only good for cqb because of how high the gpnvg are when they are stowed I would favour wraps for the pvs-31c

u/Azovchan 23d ago

We engage in CQB almost always so… 

-18

u/Massive_Project_1720 23d ago

GPNVG is only for specialized groups and the chimera bridge is also a civilian product so I don't think its coming

31

u/Top_Collection_8546 23d ago

chimera bridge has been used by militaries and police forces since 2024

7

u/Opening_Home_8508 23d ago

I think thats the problem i believe if i remember correctly theyre only adding stuff from before a certain date in 2023 so anything before 2023 should be fair game

-13

u/Massive_Project_1720 23d ago

Specifically spec ops or like CTs, honestly I would favour clip on nvg for optics rather that a paranomic night vision mount

and there's multiple patches that imply the character is spec ops

(MC2, round MSSRT, UGCR)

u/PowerfulWeather8016 22d ago

how do i get those patched? mssrt especially

1

u/wallsarecooll 22d ago

ugcr is unobtainable now, mssrt rectangle patches are from the mission sea sick, and the mc2 rectangle patches are from a zombies mission, i forgor the name for it tho

u/fleeyuh 22d ago

what is the ugcr patch? how was it obtainable

u/wallsarecooll 22d ago

Patch given to players upon joining within 24 hours of operation typhoons release,

u/EitherConsequence917 23d ago

GPNVG itself is specifically optimized and designed for CQB, so works I guess

u/i1want1to1die 22d ago

werent they made for helicopter pilots at first?

What are you trying to state?

7

u/Flamezane74 23d ago

that the devs need to add this

u/AltenRoguerz 23d ago

is it too much to ask for both?

0

u/Interesting-Hold1347 22d ago

Infantry is optimized for cqb as well, most of the fighting I've been doing is cqb or very short range too. What is your point?

-11

u/Servant_3 23d ago

How does stow height relate to cqb??

18

u/Massive_Project_1720 23d ago

hitting door frames

7

u/Ok-Distribution7147 23d ago

Also helps with getting in the car most of the time

2

u/Servant_3 23d ago

I thought u meant its higher than normal mounts so the chimera is causing the hitting of door frames.

I don’t think this item is only beneficial for cqb though. Irl people don’t keep nods on all the time like we are forced to do in game

0

u/Massive_Project_1720 23d ago

hitting door frames how is that bad?!? process the words before asking

154

u/Charming-Trash-7196 23d ago

a while ago they said canted aiming would defeat the purpose of tactical, and they added that feature last week

22

u/inorth_ 22d ago

The thing is many militaries train with canted aim not for presicion on long ann medium range but rather sweep out way too tight and close areas accurately. The long range part happens when you have a canted aiming device.

10

u/Azovchan 20d ago

And, after all, it feels really CAG to use canted aiming with a laser on in CQB 

Especially when you switch between your optic and canted

4

u/inorth_ 20d ago

Yup because like in a distance where the opfor can utilize cqc instead of cqb it is better to have your weapon canted and have a clear visual of their hand gear to utilize necessary equipment

6

u/Sir_Baller 22d ago

Canted aiming? Weren’t offset dots in the game already

24

u/red_dead_dumbass 22d ago

He means point aiming

9

u/Abbopl 22d ago

I mean it was always gonna come back I remember it being talked about literally since its removal gen 2 it's just they wanted to implement it better

2

u/Abbopl 22d ago

Series creator request as below and IIRC it's been in every BRN iteration.

Secondly fun silly items like the hecate or the deagle, python etc are allowed to be added just not suggested this is due to the devs wanting to knock out in-service equipment first then the niche fun shit after

u/EdyAlbertoMS 22d ago

u/Far_Sample_8743 20d ago

Did they really say it was too tedious to research??

u/ArmoredAdventurer 23d ago

These devs will much rather have a hundreds of Cyre or Multicam offshoots added to the game that look exactly like the last rather than cutting down on it and adding different camo patterns or colors like T-Block, M81 Urban or some or something like Flora and Vz 95 series.

29

u/Bigmacaroni129 22d ago

T-Block? M81 Urban? Someone wants that HECU larp

5

u/Adventurous_Fall1737 20d ago

They really don’t care, at this point I think they should just remove any suggestions sections or we as a community should flat out stop giving suggestions. I’m not apart of their discord and quite honestly I never will join because there’s absolutely 0 point to it. What I’m gonna suggest they give us a flannel asset they already have in zombies just for them to give an excuse as to why they won’t? I’m good. They will say “no” to items used by 5+ foreign militaries just for them to add a gun that only 3 US departments use. It’s all a lame excuse to just put what they want into the game. I know they do add stuff we suggest at times but at the same time when people do suggest stuff the person suggesting gets shit on by devs or the community. I’ve never seen anyone ask for the MK20 SSR (used by 3 US special forces departments) in any forum but yet you have people ask for a M14 (over 30 countries using it and variants of it) and they say “not widely used” or “M110 has replaced it” etc. I’m tired of seeing people in the community getting crapped on for expressing their thoughts on a game they’re obviously passionate/excited about

-29

u/DyllanTheBlueOcean 23d ago

What's up with people wanting random obscure camos so bad? So what if it's multicam?

31

u/wallsarecooll 23d ago

the problem is we already have 90 thousand identical multicam apparels

18

u/ArmoredAdventurer 23d ago

Dude we already got a shit ton of multicam and not enough of the other camos that should have an opportunity to shine or different apparel.

Even then you’re saying Flora series Camo is obscure is already within itself a travesty. 🥀

4

u/VoidGuyOfCoolness 22d ago

there are like anywhere in the range of 7-12 (or higher) boring multicam apparels (i yearn for the day that they add AMCU because yes it may be a STYLE of multicam but it looks so much better omg)

3

u/GreenBuggo 17d ago

because they should add aussie jellybean camo instead of more fuckin multicam garbage. the least they could do is add OCP and the british one as iptions for plate carriers and pouches so I don't have bright ass multicam on my army infantry fit that clashes with th OCP, or having to use solid coyote brown

2

u/Conscious-Average924 8d ago

Yes. They removed the british MTP for litterly zero reason but to be honest it should've stayed

17

u/srpro2000 21d ago

Yes, I want my CHIMERAs for LARP with my M81 and my CSAW, which they won't install until I die...

u/Ancient_Let7942 20d ago

We arent allowed unique items, you will get another dozen m4 style rifles for the collection.

u/Adventurous_Fall1737 20d ago

“How about another 100 high cut helmets?”

9

u/VoidGuyOfCoolness 22d ago

That, and adding colourways for the f2p/white phosphor gpnvg.

7

u/HiKk1_ 18d ago

devs be like: "uuuh, uhh uumm actually, i-i-it's NOOOOT a standart i-i-issueee *shits himself*"

7

u/account_1991 18d ago

being boiling for months if not a year, they got us to shut up by putting m14 on accepted. Usually when the devs 'reject' some equipment, they iterate that they'll add it later when they have the time and energy. That is starting to look like tacit incompliance than integrity.

pretty strange though how the community got back to fighting with devs on who's ego is more massive.

2

u/Opening_Home_8508 23d ago

Its probably because its too new? I think they only add things adopted before 2023 currently in gen 4

3

u/Azovchan 22d ago

We are literally fighting in 2025-2026 period bruh

And, it’s not too new, plus it has been spotted to be used by KSC or whatever name they have

1

u/Mammoth-Version-6694 22d ago

“… used by KSC or whatever…” I didn’t know the Kerbal Space Center had a special operations department.

1

u/Azovchan 22d ago

I mean, who else would wear “It’s round, we checked” patches?

1

u/No-Capital-6091 22d ago

They saw the dutch do a public photoshoot with the gen 1 chimeras and a few devgru trials and now they want to angle their panos too!!!

1

u/Abbopl 22d ago

Doesn't matter when we are fighting it must be in-service for a certain period of time or be a niche item the devs wanna knock out before

Niche items like this are permitted but only will happen over time we we knock out in-service

Also the chimera bridge is being hella overrated in this community rn holy fuck

1

u/Azovchan 22d ago

Overrated because it’s cool asf

4

u/Kitchen_Chain781 16d ago

Having been around since Nightfall, they have a pretty long history of fervently refusing to add requested things, just to turn around and put it in a year or two later. A couple prominent examples are machine guns and boats, both of which were strongly pushed back against just a few years ago. It’s a pretty long standing trope with P5 on the topic of BRM5, that being shooting suggestions down with extreme prejudice. Chimera’s will probably be put in at some point in the future, odds are they’ve already taken note of it and will eventually put it in. I’m wondering if it’s almost some weird backlog method, shoving back on suggestions but adding them to a catalog behind the scenes for future updates. Sounds silly but they haven’t exactly been great with transparency, at least in my experience.

Who the hell cares if it ended up being a bad product? No one thinks they’re idiots for adding it to the game

I don’t see why hes so uptight about “muh military service” dude its good to listen to your players sometimes

0

u/Abbopl 22d ago

I don't get to like actually brm whilst not Arma does have standards and it's fine, also the fucking bridge just looks weird he's not being uptight he's just standing his ground big fucking difference and at the end of they day it's their game we are players we give feedback but if tmw all the players asked for alien laser rifles would you want that request granted?

8

u/Serious_Relative_105 22d ago

If u wanna die on a hill about adding a nvg mount to an arcade military shooter on roblox go ahead ✌️ he takes so much pride in “military accuracy” it just sucks the fun out of having highly requested equipment that is denied almost every time. No ones asking for alien rifles bro

0

u/Abbopl 22d ago

I never said it shouldn't be added lol for fuck sakes I just said it doesn't needed added this second I've used since 2019 if it remains and sees actual service it'll be added if one of the devs wants it it'll be added

Again not your game idc about military accuracy but there's other more important shit to knock out before a niche item

2

u/Serious_Relative_105 22d ago

Im not just talking about the chimeras almost every highly requested thing he denies and he does it while being an ass about it. 100% they should be ironing out bugs and optimisation but when it comes to HIS job of adding equipment to the game he could be more liberal

1

u/Abbopl 22d ago

I think to a degree yes he could be more liberal but then again gen 2 when they were it ended up with people begging for the most obscure shit which is why the rule is so heavily enforced how it is now this doesn't mean we won't see niche specific equipment down the line but if you look at the trello tons of it that's improved is still being wotked on

u/TheDipcifican 23d ago edited 23d ago

After hearing his reason for not adding it immediately, i hate to admit it but he has a good point

Edit: It's also worth pointing out that the Dutch KCT tested the Chimera Bridge, and they're the only ones to have high quality press photos of them using it. These images are three years old. I wonder if they dropped it and thus did not satisfy kitgat's requirements, or if kitgat needs to put money where his mouth is.

18

u/Hundschent 23d ago

Kitgat really doesn't have a point. Hiding behind “realism” doesn’t make his arbitrary standards unquestionable. If you can’t defend them without getting defensive and blocking people, that says enough. Guy just has a ego problem and immediately shuts down through ignoring it or insults. Does it every time on the discord.

6

u/Top_Collection_8546 23d ago

harris county swat, houston swat, and RAID use it and have high quality press photos although theyre all police units

1

u/PatientElectrical941 23d ago

devs dont want to add police units gear and etc. beside like 2-3 i think (rys-t, saiga and iirc sr-3m and sr-2m are mostly fsb-police stuff)

3

u/PatientElectrical941 23d ago

afaik they dropped it, heres no photos of them using it beside these few

2

u/Sir_Baller 22d ago

Here’s it being used by CAG, I’m not sure if it’s actually issued in small numbers or if it was a personal purchase.

also I think it’s either 24th or devgru, afaik cag dont use uapnvg

He ain't lying on the first one, I'm looking at you SCAR-L and unfortunately XM8.

u/Fletcher_Chonk 23d ago

The SCAR-L is still used by a lot of non US militaries, I doubt the devs specifically look at the US military when counting service.

3

u/One_Championship2217 23d ago

Well, yeah, because we still see it in-game, but in terms of the DoD/DoW, they're like that.

5

u/SomeGazelle531 22d ago

Too new. Every single team that’s been mentioned that “uses them” is only testing the thing. It is not standard issue yet. That’s basically why it isn’t added yet. Don’t know what’s so hard to comprehend about it

3

u/ToeLee1 23d ago

supposedly its cause nocturn is just a niche company, but the chimera isnt so niche

2

u/Abbopl 22d ago

It is technically niche in the grand scheme of things tbf

It's also just too new same with the entirety of the NGSW program

3

u/Flamezane74 23d ago

why the frick wont the devs add this in the first place? The devs need to listen to their player base more, as not listening to what the player base wants is how you end up with a ded game.

6

u/bradleylova39 23d ago

Apparently it’s cuz it’s too new or something

2

u/Projekt_Red07 23d ago edited 23d ago

They do listen. Things like Melee weapons have been added because they listened. Albeit...after they bitched about you not needing them for like 2 years. (I'm an ultra old player we didn't have Melee weapons yes that was a thing) They added the HK416 that was definitely listened to (We were literally begging for the thing at the time). They didn't want players using an Anti-material rifles (They added the Hecate) and soon the M107. There's literally multiple examples of it. Anyway they do listen they just don't add everything we ask for.

2

u/Abbopl 22d ago

Tbf iirc in gen 2 it wasn't so much bitching about not needing them more so bitching about how to implement it

A lot of the issues are implementing things tbf

If they listed to everything we said we'd end up cod slop if they don't listen to anything we hate them, they've always done the middle ground and I'm happy with it

1

u/telariot 22d ago

There's a difference between listening to the community and getting tired of people begging

1

u/d3struct0r 22d ago

And when they do add them, it's right when they have a solid reason to. Like how anti-material rifles are being considered since vehicles now have engine damage.
