The video compares nine functional stealth ships in Star Citizen, excluding the Hornet Ghost due to a bug in its stealth capability. The presenter demonstrates each ship’s stealth capabilities, loadout options, and gameplay footage to help players understand and choose their favorite stealth ship for optimal performance in the game.
In the video, the presenter compares all the stealth ships currently available in the game, totaling nine functional stealth ships after excluding the Hornet Ghost due to a bug in its stealth capability. The ships include the Eclipse, Saber, Saber Raven, Firebird, Talon, Talon Strike, Mantis, Razor EX, and Prowler. The Firebird, with its stealthy design and ability to reduce its IR signature significantly by unequipping components, stands out as one of the most stealthy ships, even with 24 missiles on board. The presenter tests the Firebird in the PTU and showcases its stealth capabilities in action during a bombing run.
The Eclipse, known for its stealth bombing capabilities, features a loadout with stock components and two laser repeaters. The Saber and Saber Raven are also explored, with the Saber Raven’s EMP generator causing a spike in IR and EM when activated. The Talon and Talon Strike are analyzed, with the Talon’s loadout options impacting its stealth capabilities. The Mantis, Razor EX, and Prowler are then discussed, with the Prowler standing out as a unique stealth drop ship with high IR and EM values.
The presenter demonstrates how loadout choices, such as equipping weapons or removing components, can significantly affect a ship’s stealthiness. Different weapon configurations and component setups are tested to determine the optimal stealth loadout for each ship. The video showcases gameplay footage of the ships in action, highlighting their stealth capabilities during combat scenarios. The presenter also provides details on the detection ranges for different radar sizes, emphasizing the importance of managing a ship’s signature to remain undetected.
Overall, the video serves as a comprehensive guide for players interested in stealth gameplay in Star Citizen, offering insights into each stealth ship’s strengths and weaknesses. Viewers are encouraged to share their favorite stealth ship and preferred loadout in the comments section. The presenter’s detailed analysis, numerical comparisons, and in-game demonstrations provide valuable information for players looking to master the art of stealth play in the game.
