Will radar shadow be present in the game?asked by Buran
TL;DRYes, radar shadow will be in the game, along with different signature types and ways for players to hide, such as behind asteroids, powering down systems or coating the ship.
So yes, the answer is yes. Radar shadow will definitely be present in the game.We have all different kinds of radar signatures you can have whether it's a heat signature, electromagnetic signature, a reflective signature, and we're also thinking of different ways that you as a player can shield yourself from someone else detecting you.So there will be an aspect of being able to sort of play the stealth angle. Maybe you can shield yourself behind an asteroid, or maybe you can shut down a bunch of systems so your signature is really small, or maybe you could coat your ship in a kind of armor that would give you a much lower reflective signature.So we'll definitely have radar shadow be part of that and we're hoping, thinking, it's actually going to add a lot of fun to the gameplay and nuance because there's just a lot of different options for people to take things in space and that's kind of part of the things we're really excited about for what we're doing with Star Citizen.
