PV, It Might Not Be OP If...

Many forum posts talk about PV being overpowered for the simple fact that someone can see through walls and a whole bunch of other stuff. And we have people who say its not OP, I feel its not OP, for one reason that I’m hoping is the case:

AS LONG AS P. VISION IS ACTIVE YOU CAN NOT DO ANY OFFENSIVE ACTIONS

Which means while everything is green and orange you can not fire your gun, melee anything, or throw any grenades. Some people are going to say “well how does this make it not OP?”.

Currently there is a little game that’s called: Blacklight: Retribution. In this game there is basically a device that works just like PV, it allows you to see everyone’s location on the map, but you can have it on for a short while and it takes some time for it to recharge. While you use it you can’t shoot, grenade, etc., so basically your timing of this ability is critical. Where you can find the locations of your enemies, if you have horrible timing you would run into enemies with basically your pants down around your ankles while the ability is active. If PV is set up like this, with the time limit on usage with decent recharge time it really wouldn’t be the OP, solo ability everyone is making it out to be.

HOW IS PV OVERPOWERED.

I’ve had PV since Halo CE. It’s called a Motion Tracker.

Cut it out with the PV concerns, we’ll talk once the game is out and we’ve all used it for ourselves.

i wasn’t aware that motion tracker was a 3 dimensional representation of your surrounds and displayed crouching opponents with pin-point accuracy and fully detailed.

There was a big thread on this 3 mins ago, i cant find it now for some reason but a lot of people was saying it was OP for a number a reasons. I now realized i kind of worded this post saying i think it is but i dont. that was bad writing on my part

It’s just kind of obnoxious to see what seems to be the same forum posts everyday about the same exact topics. Those being “PV IS SO OP!” or threads that serve as counters to those threads.
