    Title says it all, but as an added note, limit the amount of targets that can be marked at one time to about 3 or 4 to prevent this from being spammed
    btw when I say targets I mean the red diamonds, not the orange ones

    It wouldn't allow you to see through walls. At all.

    It's good for nightvision. Hot bodies stick out against a cold backdrop.
    The kineckt uses an infra-red sensor for depth, though that's closer to a form of radar than passive sensing.

    and technically homeland, it's at night time, except it's broken and the streets are lit up.

    The modification of slaughtered with the oil platform in the lake. Or maybe it wasn't night but only dark clouds to display the storm? It vanished, we'll never know...

    flasche, empires is so much closer to hollywood then to realism. Make IR binoculars let people see through walls, just to show him that fact!

    What's wrong with having scout binocs mark up to three squad targets, in the absence of comm targets?

    hmmm so "hide" ability would be useless against other scouts that are in-binocular mode?

    which is actually kinda cool when you think about it, class specific counters are cool and make for interesting situations imo.
