The video showcases the new Deadlock armor bundle introduced in Star Citizen 4.3.2, highlighting it as the best armor set in the game so far. The presenter expresses strong admiration for the armor’s design, praising its tactical look with minimal lighting that doesn’t interfere in dark environments. Alongside the armor, the bundle includes a cool gun and unique paint schemes for the Stalancer Tuck and Stalancer Max ships, with subtle differences between the two. The presenter appreciates the paint job that fully covers the ship, calling it perfect and visually appealing.
The video then transitions into a guide on how to obtain the Deadlock armor in-game. Players can find the armor pieces by looting distribution centers, particularly on Hurston, New Babbage, and other locations with distribution centers. However, the placement of the armor is random and non-standard, making the hunt challenging. The presenter plans to demonstrate looting at specific facilities such as the Dupri Industrial Manufacturing Facility and Graycat, based on hints from the game developers.
Approaching these distribution centers can be dangerous due to hostile turrets and missile defenses. The presenter advises a careful approach by flying behind the facility to avoid turret fire and conserving boost for the final approach. Interestingly, the turrets appear to be bugged in the current patch and do not always fire, making landing somewhat easier. The presenter uses a Stalancer Tuck for the approach, noting its strong shields but slower speed compared to smaller ships better suited for the task.
Once inside the facility, finding the armor remains a difficult task. The armor boxes are hidden in various places, requiring players to think like the developers to locate them. The presenter and a friend spend considerable time searching without success at first, encountering hostile turret fire and other challenges. They find some armor pieces and praise the included gun, considering it potentially the best weapon in the game due to its accuracy and spread.
In conclusion, the presenter critiques the random and tedious nature of the armor hunting gameplay, suggesting that a dedicated mission rewarding the armor would have been a better approach. Despite the difficulty and frustration, the armor looks fantastic and is worth acquiring for fans. The video ends with encouragement to either search for the armor or purchase it directly if preferred, and a call to subscribe and like the video for more Star Citizen content.
