You missed one of the best pistols in-game. The devastating, Wowblast! With its unique sound effects, superior colour options and one of a kind ammo, you can't go wrong with the the Wowblast.
Nice Video, the way you were presenting the weapons it felt like you were somewhere behind an asteroid in a caterpillar dull of weapons making a sales pitch to a mercenary outfit. Love it.
Special thanks to the AI in this video. CIG instructed to them to not react in any way or shoot back, to allow for weapon testing. This in itself is impressive how they can follow orders like that. You can even see some of them hesitating because they fear for their lives and occasionally respond. Pretty advanced stuff.
What? No, the AI are dependent on server performance and are essentially playing at a horrid latenc... I-I MEAN YES THE NPCs are totally posing and acting for the video! They were loaded with special scripts so that they would only look a little hostile! Yes!...
See if you can get this pinged across to Gamespot for them to do a loadout episode with Johnathan Furguson! I'd love to see what he thinks of these sci fi weapons!
Honestly you don't really need a super power PC. Averaging 50 fps with an i7-8700, a 1060, 16g of ram, and not even installed on an SSD yet (which is the recommended way)
Not to go into too much theoretical detail, but i suppose the barrel of the laser weapons has something to do with the focusing lenses of the weapon's overall output, hence beefy barrel = lots of focusing lenses = yes, essentially more pew-pewey
Yeah, I was thinking something similar. It's not like gas pressure matters for a laser, so caliber is kind of meaningless since the "projectile" is not a piston. That being said, you could fit a higher-wattage laser into a bigger barrel and also better lenses- although realistically, if we are applying real laser logic, it would be a columnating lense so there isn't one focal plane that the enemy would have to graciously stand in to be shot. I guess big barrel > fat laser > focus lense > columnating lense > lots of pew pew. I am definitely thinking about this too hard...
@@S1L3NTSNA1L possibly, but I doubt it'd be the same as shotgun gauges, probably to the .1 gauge seeing as we are talking about glass or crystal lenses
I love the guns in Star Citizen. They feel unique from each other and don' t feel like their just "Here's a fast one and here's a slow one pick one" instead they all have cool ammo types and have cool things to each.
By far the best & most comprehensive showcase of star citizen's fps weapons. Visuals, sounds, video production... Everything is kicked up a notch compared to other youtube videos. Thanks, I enjoyed every bit of it. Video liked, and I subscribed to your channel.
In lore of star citizen , most "Laser" weapons are actual super heated Plasma contained in a magnetic field. not sur if this is true on the hand gun side of things but it might be.
i honestly love how the ybarev guns do look a bit retro futuristic without actually looking retro futuristic, it feels like a wink to retrofuturism but the materials and such still feel just futuristic. Thats to say, it feels like if that tech existed it could look like that, instead of just looking like a cool but goofy mix of asthetics. They didnt just make the gun look steampunk like youd find in universes that mix scfi with fantasy, like league, overwatch or paladins. It actually feels velibable
I’ve been playing Star Citizen for a long time, and I never stopped to appreciate the variety and detail of the weapons like this video has. Really good stuff.
I believe the energy bolts that ‘laser’ weapons fire is plasma. It has its properties and SW, which was used as an example, use plasma for their ‘lasers’
I find it highly amusing that despite the sci-fi setting, all these weapons aren't just styled differently but have actually companies behind them that stick to those styles like in Borderlands. I've been think about maybe jumping into SC with the Avenger Titan package but am still undecided as of right now. But at least I know that if I do get into it I'll get to see some really cool guns.
the titan is a nice ship, and so is the cutter. you can always start with the cheaper one and upgrade to ten more expensive ship, or wait for a free fly event
This arsenal is wicked impressive when you compare it to Planetside 2. Perhaps fewer weapons (for now) but they are actually distinct in visuals and mechanics.
I like this guide because it presents the usefulness of EVERY weapon as contrasted by other guides that make me simply want to avoid some weapons that the narrator dislikes. Now I want to try them all.
Quick not about the salvo frag pistol, It is actually a hand shotgun when it does it's charged shot. The descriptions basically says it uses tech to freeze the current chambered bullet and then ejects it as normal, but due to it's brittle nature of the shot it will fragment on discharge from the barrel.
Been playing SC for nearly 3 years, I like the p4-ar, coda pistol, fs9, and custodian. Will have to try out the fs55 for sure. Tyvm for this awesome video and info
I like how all of the weapons are good and there isn't really a bad choice, at least for PVE. I always just get the P4-AR and the P8-SC just because I know they work, but I should try more guns. This was a helpful video
The A03 is my favorite gun in the game, makes a great scout rifle. Will drop most things in 1 shot to the melon at medium range, has great ammo capacity, and the ammo is slim making it easy to pack extra.
Not just the guns, Load up Star Citizen on an 8K screen and look at the detail of the woven material on gloves and suits. The attention to detail in this game is insane. And yes, it will run 8K, just super chunky.
Gotta say, I'm a big fan of Behring's guns. The believability of the designs without the over the top sci-fi elements keep things nicely grounded in reality.
I agree to a degree. Many of the shots you are hearing are also in space. So you have to keep that in mind. And you have a helmet on, which will suppress and change the way the gun sounds. As with anything else though, they will likely do a full rework of weapon sounds.
I never liked future guns anyway. You'd think in the future guns would look slimmer and lighter. But no, they make very bulky heavily guns. Don't know why they do all that🤦🤦🤦. Well if I was making the game, I would say they're bulky because they have high tech mechanics that disperse push back and stuff which decreasing recoil and makes the guns more accurate. would still like them to be thinner, I mean look at the modern ARs, they're taking out as much as metal as possible and making light and tough alloys that don't effect performance. That should actually be what future weapons look like.
This video doesn't go a very good job of showcasing the sound design. Gunshots sound different based on environment, and whether or not you have a helmet on. It could absolutely be better, but for it being what I assume is a first pass, it's pretty stellar. I imagine in typical CIG fashion, it'll get an overhaul in the future. At the moment it's serviceable, and not super high priority.
@@yous2244 SC is very backwards in some aspects of its futurism. For instance, most ships have WWII style manned ball turrets. It seems like Chris Roberts wants to create a more realistic depiction of Star Wars than something that feels like it's set in the 30th century by modern day standards.
Very cool video, thanks for showing all weapons. I like the Karna Rifle. I like the lightning weapons a lot too but i get crimestats a lot as the ightning jumps over to friendlys ;D.
Love the Karna rifle, one of my fav's for sure the burst mode is fantastic and the charge up while hard to use, it really satisfying Coda as a side arm is a lotta fun, done many a run with just that pistol and lots of mags and who doesnt love shooting down ships with the rail gun? XD
Zack: Say chief where did you get that relic. Garabaldi: oh this thing, it's been in my family since my great grandma worked with Chicago PD. Zack: an old time slug thrower G: Yea, this is before we switch to PPG because shooting a bullet in a confine space often lead to catastrophic decompression.
yo the coda pistol design is sick as fuck. and i really like how the atzkov cycle animation shows the resistance and heaviness of pulling back the bolt. also the microwave gun at the end looks exactly like the wave cooker in deep rock galactic
fun fact that he forget but the railgun rounds will actually bounce around if you shoot them indoors if you dont fully charge the gun leading to some absolute chaos in a pvp fight
What I like about Star Citizen weapons and it's brand manufacturers is that they have their own unique design and product. Some of it design got inspiration from real world firearms that we use today. Behring = Modern/Conventional firearms (the company remind me of Heckler & Koch) Gemini = Futuristic design with conventional ammunition Klaus and Werner = Laser Pew Pew Kastak Arms = Futuristic plasma weapons and firearms Lighting Bolt = Electric Kill Apocalypse Arms = Big and Destructive(Anti-Vehicle/Aircraft) I hope they add more weapons into the game. For example: Behring: Machine Pistol Revolver Battle Rifle Rocket Launcher(Panzerfaust 3/RPG-7) Klaus and Werner: Laser Revolver Laser Carbine Laser Minigun Laser DMR Laser Beam Kastak Arms: Plasma Pistol Plasma Carbine Plasma LMG/Minigun Plasma Grenade Launcher Plasma RPG Lighting Bolt: Electron SMG Electron Shotgun Electron Assault Rifle Electron LMG Apocalypse Arms: Multiple Launch Rocket System MANPADS Incendiary Launcher
These look absolutely amazing. Now if they could clean up and improve the hit detection and animations when you shoot someone, that would make everything much more entertaining and satisfying.
That’s a netcode thingy and requires persistent entity streaming (PES) to be more polished first. However, you might like to hear that for Squadron 42, they just recently reported to have smoothened out some animations. But hit detection is a bigger problem that needs more tinkering in the very foundations of the game code (just remember the battlefield 4 launch… such things aren’t easy).
I always like that each of guns has manufacturer it makes the game have world building and distinguishing to each other and hopefully each of the weapons have their identity that reflects their manufacturers
The handguns are among the most detailed objects in SC. I really enjoy looking at them in the game. Also the animations. Strangely enough the armour is not as high-resolution up close. In the reloading animations I find the sliding in of the magazine containers the best. See Devestator. Revager, Custodian, Coda pistol are also good. The Atzkav precision rifle looks the most elaborate. R-97 and S-71 could be from Crysis 2.
Love all the weapons so far within Star Citizen, but I definitely like the more classic and real life look of the Behring weapons. Personally, while flashy guns look cool, I'd rather have a simple gun that's probably a lot easier to work on, in case they decided to add the need to break down and clean/repair firearms within the game. Would definitely love to see a video covering all ship based guns the same way this video covers small arms. Loved the style and simplicity of the video, not overdoing it with statistics or anything like that.
Videos like this is what made me really into 3d modelling and animation, one of my goals this year that I have set aside for march is to learn to modelling, rig, and animate firearms that being currently existing and original designs that I may come up with. This video along with some of my personal favorites will certainly help in that
@@LeHoser Im currently doing some other project at the moment, making some content for my TH-cam channel and other platforms and my portfolio. But once gone it's straight into the hard surface modelling tutorials
Considering I don't have a PC but I want to get into this game eventually, channels with videos like this are invaluable for information. Any chance you might do some on armor?
Some people are super impressed with the detail of the guns in CP77, but SC guns are so much more detailed that I hadn't noticed the CP77 ones aren't completely basic. 😅
Cool Camerawork in this video :D I hate to say it when I say this makes me want to look into this game sometime soon. (If I finally get burned out on some of my other Go-to franchises lol)
The weapons are definitely some of the most amazing assets along with ships. They share the same atttention for detail und uqniue brand characteristics and design. I think the sound has definitely room to improve a lot, but that is true for much of the game.
Long time backer and concierge and I just want to thank you for the balanced reporting on the state of the game. I just hope personally I live long enough to see the finished game and to be able to play and enjoy Star Citizen and find that my money invested was not a waste but that it helped to fund a game that is ahead of it's time and that will be played and enjoyed by citizens around the world for decades to come. o7 😎👍
lasers can be "caliber based", the bigger the ability to charge, the hotter it gets the hotter it gets, the more it can melt through, its why some lasers irl are brighter/hotter than others
In regards to the Lightning Bolt weapons being good at boarding: I'm in a pirate group, that does training sims against each other when we have trouble finding targets, and sometimes get a bit wacky. We decide to take turns boarding and defending a freelancer with 6 people a side. I led the first boarding attack and as we got people in via the central dorsal airlock, we open the door and hear "Atzkavs at the ready" in proximity voice from the other team, as all 6 of them have equipped Atzkav's and started shooting us, in the super tight cramped area even though I immediately got into the cover of the bulkhead, the damage arcing off others still dropping down into the middle of the doorway killed the whole team in quick order. That being said, the arc range is too short to rely on for typical ships, and the Yubarev is absolutely the worst FPS weapon in the game
I'm really starting to love this game, i know it's unfinished and that why there are many bugs and bad netcode but the things that do work or how they want them to work eventually is really how i would like a game to be, it doesnt feel unrealistic in a way that they did the technology and the fact that bullets are simulated gives it a real feel. cant wait to play the finished version in like 10-15 years maybe:D
"Lasers" - blasters, in SC / Star Wars really - would not have a caliber, but rather be rated by things like joules (kinetic impact energy), watts (heat applied to target), and probably like a projectile density / mass aspect. In theory, these are shooting "projectiles" consisting of high energy particles. Protons, neutrons, photons, whatever. You need a phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range :D
Karna Rifle is definately my favourite and a real joy to use in 2-shot burst mode especially, deadly and accurate, easy to handle yet packing a punch. Also sounds amazing.
great video, the Coda to me seems to be more the Desert Eagle of Star Citizen. but I want something bigger, the Star Citizen equivalent to the Magnum Research BFR or Smith & Wesson model 500. and also, a pistol size single shot grenade launcher.
@@LucidStrike yeah, it's funny he says it's the 44 magnum of star citizen despite saying it was a 50 cal. though the Desert Eagle can be chambered in .44 magnum to.
worth noting that the railgun was (probably is) a great anti infantry weapon! i generally just carry that and a pistol and it can demolish people fairly fast if u dont charge up fully
Behring is my all-time favorite Weapon-Manufacturer, I almost exclusively use their guns. Gemini would be second, the fire-rate on the C54 is sick and awesome for CQB
i hope they bring the animations up to par with the models for the guns. I want modern warfare 2 style recoil, were it feels very punchy, like youre actually putting effort to controll full auto, but still being realistically accurate. None of that milsim ''realism'' were guns have 100x as much recoil as they do in real life.
Awesome video it would be cool to hear about the gun mods flash lights, laser pointers, sights, scopes, suppressors, silencers, sustainers, custom paints and knifes too :)
You missed one of the best pistols in-game. The devastating, Wowblast! With its unique sound effects, superior colour options and one of a kind ammo, you can't go wrong with the the Wowblast.

I've always loved the brand continuity between the guns. Even if the style does get crazy or inconsistent at times, major beats are there.
yeah it's really cool that CIG are treating weapons like that, like ships.
I don't play star citizen, but I always appreciate differing brands of weapons in game likes this
That goes a long way for immersion. I can totally see players having a preference for certain companies purely for style.

For a space game, that's fucking tons of weapon. Really impressive, hope I could have a pc powerful enough to run it lol
What's your pc?
Honestly you don't really need a super power PC. Averaging 50 fps with an i7-8700, a 1060, 16g of ram, and not even installed on an SSD yet (which is the recommended way)
There will probably be many more. I think the Weapon folks are just focused on utility items for now, such as the dedicated tractor beam tool.
Yeah dude - I never would have started playing this game if there wasn’t FPS combat. I spend most of my time doing stuff on the ground haha
its not a space game.. its a universe simulator.
Not to go into too much theoretical detail, but i suppose the barrel of the laser weapons has something to do with the focusing lenses of the weapon's overall output, hence beefy barrel = lots of focusing lenses = yes, essentially more pew-pewey
LevelCapGaming i hesitantly invoke your name to ask if you find this interesting
Yeah, I was thinking something similar. It's not like gas pressure matters for a laser, so caliber is kind of meaningless since the "projectile" is not a piston. That being said, you could fit a higher-wattage laser into a bigger barrel and also better lenses- although realistically, if we are applying real laser logic, it would be a columnating lense so there isn't one focal plane that the enemy would have to graciously stand in to be shot.

I guess they'd be measured in gauge
@@S1L3NTSNA1L possibly, but I doubt it'd be the same as shotgun gauges, probably to the .1 gauge seeing as we are talking about glass or crystal lenses

God, these designs are pure beaty. The designers put a lot of passion, imagination, and consideration into them.

Man i miss games that used the XM80s. Early 2000s shooters were so cool

And goes without mentioning they can be purchased at any gun shop, which is very convenient.
It is also like 900+ years in the future. I love the designs but that's cause I'm a caveman compared to what weapons would be in the next millennium.

Great video. I love the FPS weapons in SC
Hey man! Thanks for this video, I have never played Star citizen but very cool to see the ships/weapons, their design team are quite talented!
I think I’d be neat if they added “Vintage Weapons” , or modern day/guns from the 1900’s-2000’s as just a gag thing
I am new to SC and love this amount of details in that game! Especially the the high qualit weapon models. Love that! 🙂
Nice, well paced and excellent accompanying video. Some of details I never really looked at ✌🏽🎁
Good job buddy. Did miss the Wow Blast... however seeing as it fires foam darts that deal no damage I'll let you off xD
This is a great video LevelCap, really enjoyed a deep dive into the weapons
Soo cool that each Individual bullet is modeled! @ 6:10.
Lightning Bolt Co. reminds me of Bioshock. Definitely on purpose.
I love Behring. Boxy. Minimal complexity. Medium calibre, high accuracy.
Very cool video, thanks for showing all weapons. I like the Karna Rifle.

railgun and missile launcher are just about the only weapons I loot from boxes, I go and buy a bunch of Karna rifles early on haha
I’m impressed by the trigger discipline on those close-ups.
Behring is my fav. manufacturer :)
I love that pretty much every gun has something cool about it, usually something unique mechanically. That's how you make memorable guns.
My most common weapons loadout is the FS-9, the P6-LR sniper, the Salvo Frag pistol and a Sawtooth knife
Zack: Say chief where did you get that relic.
Garabaldi: oh this thing, it's been in my family since my great grandma worked with Chicago PD.

G: Yea, this is before we switch to PPG because shooting a bullet in a confine space often lead to catastrophic decompression.
The Leneer and Garibaldi episode, with the Harley, also comes to mind.

yo the coda pistol design is sick as fuck. and i really like how the atzkov cycle animation shows the resistance and heaviness of pulling back the bolt. also the microwave gun at the end looks exactly like the wave cooker in deep rock galactic

They need to add the P8-AR fully to the game. It had a debut in earlier PTUs but was never actually added when the patch landed.
What I like about Star Citizen weapons and it's brand manufacturers is that they have their own unique design and product. Some of it design got inspiration from real world firearms that we use today.
Behring = Modern/Conventional firearms (the company remind me of Heckler & Koch)
Gemini = Futuristic design with conventional ammunition
Klaus and Werner = Laser Pew Pew
Kastak Arms = Futuristic plasma weapons and firearms
Lighting Bolt = Electric Kill
Apocalypse Arms = Big and Destructive(Anti-Vehicle/Aircraft)
I hope they add more weapons into the game. For example:
Behring:
Machine Pistol
Revolver
Battle Rifle
Rocket Launcher(Panzerfaust 3/RPG-7)
Klaus and Werner:
Laser Revolver
Laser Carbine
Laser Minigun
Laser DMR
Laser Beam
Kastak Arms:
Plasma Pistol
Plasma Carbine
Plasma LMG/Minigun
Plasma Grenade Launcher
Plasma RPG
Lighting Bolt:
Electron SMG
Electron Shotgun
Electron Assault Rifle
Electron LMG
Apocalypse Arms:
Multiple Launch Rocket System
MANPADS
Incendiary Launcher

@@LeHoser Im currently doing some other project at the moment, making some content for my TH-cam channel and other platforms and my portfolio. But once gone it's straight into the hard surface modelling tutorials
I love the way the guns look!
Great video man, you've been consistently entertaining for over 10 years. This brings me back to your Planetside 2 content.
You should do this for all the Ship weapons and turrets. That would be SICK
Considering I don't have a PC but I want to get into this game eventually, channels with videos like this are invaluable for information.
Any chance you might do some on armor?
Some people are super impressed with the detail of the guns in CP77, but SC guns are so much more detailed that I hadn't noticed the CP77 ones aren't completely basic. 😅
Cool Camerawork in this video :D I hate to say it when I say this makes me want to look into this game sometime soon. (If I finally get burned out on some of my other Go-to franchises lol)
Right now the Gemini weapons are my favorite aesthetic. Especially the S71.
This is Jonathan Ferguson - the keeper of the firearm and artillery at the royal armory museum of the UK. You guys know the rest :)
The weapons are definitely some of the most amazing assets along with ships. They share the same atttention for detail und uqniue brand characteristics and design. I think the sound has definitely room to improve a lot, but that is true for much of the game.
Long time backer and concierge and I just want to thank you for the balanced reporting on the state of the game. I just hope personally I live long enough to see the finished game and to be able to play and enjoy Star Citizen and find that my money invested was not a waste but that it helped to fund a game that is ahead of it's time and that will be played and enjoyed by citizens around the world for decades to come.
o7 😎👍
Thank you for the sharing, as a star citizen player I still found this very cool
lasers can be "caliber based", the bigger the ability to charge, the hotter it gets
the hotter it gets, the more it can melt through, its why some lasers irl are brighter/hotter than others
I've been looking for a vid like this, thanks!
4:59 Although it might be just me, but it feels like the C54 are like, SC's Kriss Vector.
You should charge RSI for that. Amazing presentation !
In regards to the Lightning Bolt weapons being good at boarding: I'm in a pirate group, that does training sims against each other when we have trouble finding targets, and sometimes get a bit wacky. We decide to take turns boarding and defending a freelancer with 6 people a side. I led the first boarding attack and as we got people in via the central dorsal airlock, we open the door and hear "Atzkavs at the ready" in proximity voice from the other team, as all 6 of them have equipped Atzkav's and started shooting us, in the super tight cramped area even though I immediately got into the cover of the bulkhead, the damage arcing off others still dropping down into the middle of the doorway killed the whole team in quick order.
That being said, the arc range is too short to rely on for typical ships, and the Yubarev is absolutely the worst FPS weapon in the game
I'm really starting to love this game, i know it's unfinished and that why there are many bugs and bad netcode but the things that do work or how they want them to work eventually is really how i would like a game to be, it doesnt feel unrealistic in a way that they did the technology and the fact that bullets are simulated gives it a real feel. cant wait to play the finished version in like 10-15 years maybe:D
Doubt I'd ever personally play this game but I really enjoy watching people playing it. Looks great.
"Lasers" - blasters, in SC / Star Wars really - would not have a caliber, but rather be rated by things like joules (kinetic impact energy), watts (heat applied to target), and probably like a projectile density / mass aspect. In theory, these are shooting "projectiles" consisting of high energy particles. Protons, neutrons, photons, whatever. You need a phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range :D
Karna Rifle is definately my favourite and a real joy to use in 2-shot burst mode especially, deadly and accurate, easy to handle yet packing a punch. Also sounds amazing.
There should be an easter egg AKM hidden away somewhere, because people will always have AKs for as long as humanity lives, and probably even longer.
Good to know the differences between each gun and how they function. Anyway back to my Gemini sniper and FS-9 for all of time
Custodian is inspired by the P90 SMG, its reloading mechanism is a lot similar like the P90
My current 2 favorite weapons... Lumin 5, and FS-9.... The FS-9 packs a punch you don't see a lot with LMGs in game
great video, the Coda to me seems to be more the Desert Eagle of Star Citizen. but I want something bigger, the Star Citizen equivalent to the Magnum Research BFR or Smith & Wesson model 500. and also, a pistol size single shot grenade launcher.
Yeah, this. As he himself pointed out, it's 50 cal, so NOT like 44 Magnum.
@@LucidStrike yeah, it's funny he says it's the 44 magnum of star citizen despite saying it was a 50 cal. though the Desert Eagle can be chambered in .44 magnum to.
Real strong planetside vibes in this video. But, of course, with top notch graphics.
I do believe according to lore laser are not lasers but super heated mater fired at high speed, so I guess they are caliber based in sc?
my faves are the P8 LR .50 cal sniper. FS9 LMG. GP33, Railgun, Rocket luancher. Karna Plasma rifle and i even kinda like that laser sniper and LMG
worth noting that the railgun was (probably is) a great anti infantry weapon! i generally just carry that and a pistol and it can demolish people fairly fast if u dont charge up fully
i forgot I bought this game what feels like 10 years ago
Longer
check out 3.18 when it drops. But the big wait is for 4.0.
I never knew that the guns were so detailed
Behring is my all-time favorite Weapon-Manufacturer, I almost exclusively use their guns. Gemini would be second, the fire-rate on the C54 is sick and awesome for CQB
i hope they bring the animations up to par with the models for the guns. I want modern warfare 2 style recoil, were it feels very punchy, like youre actually putting effort to controll full auto, but still being realistically accurate. None of that milsim ''realism'' were guns have 100x as much recoil as they do in real life.
*cough* tarkov * cough*
Awesome video it would be cool to hear about the gun mods flash lights, laser pointers, sights, scopes, suppressors, silencers, sustainers, custom paints and knifes too :)
This game looks really cool
Archlight, Karna, amd P8 (or custodian) are my favorites
