You all know how I feel about that, but at the risk of sounding like a broken record, I'd say again that even if we were specops, the reasoning the author gave for why we don't have NVG's would have been perfectly enough. It's great to keep things authentic as long as it doesn't take away from experience (or potential for experience). This mission is a perfect example: If we had NVG's, if the enemy numbers and odds were reasonable and realistic, this mission was less than half of what it was.
Maybe something could have done with the waiting time (although I can't think of anything), but probably because I operated the UAV, I didn't feel any downtime. I was plain exhausted when the mission ended due to constant stress.
