There were optimizations included in the new shaders. For example, we re-optimized the lighting in the shaders that involve terrain and trees

It was an april fools joke.

Oh, I understand, but there is another question that you did not answer. Will the next update be released anytime soon?

Thermal sights are now at a lower resolution compared to day sights.

I see. When I looked at the screenshots initially I though it was just someone running with anti-aliasing off. So I'm guessing an improvement to thermal colors at an impact to clarity? So with thermals range decrease + this new low resolution I'm guessing this is also a means of making PID targets harder w/ thermals at range?

Far as I'm aware nothing changed for thermal colours, I think the text was just missing some details when originally posted, the change was to force a lower resolution on thermals.

And yep, identifying targets will be harder. The aim was to depict older gen 1 and 2 thermal sights present in the majority of our vehicles. So can still use it to detect, but the day sight will be best for identifying.

By colors I meant just the intensity of the black/white which I'm guessing is affected by the shaders. Not many asset players use BHOT, if any, due to it just being blinding. There's benefits to using BHOT IRL but due to that effect it doesn't translate well to PR.

Also sidenote funny to showcase Gen 1 and Gen 2 you use a Puma with Gen 3 thermals

lol yeah did notice that. Hopefully in the future we'll implement a few different versions so vehicles like puma can get a higher res.

I have a strong impression that the new update will be like a new milestone. in which it will change the way you play. Congratulations on the initiative to make changes to thermal vision.

can you guys integrate ReShade to the game?
