Overview

What you need:

Stealth

Loud

Comments

What you need:

A brain, Pair of Eyes and some knowledge of the game.

When joining a game there a Tab called Crew Setup, when you click the tab it will show you all players loadouts (yes, yes amazing). With this info you will know whether its stealth or... ...

Stealth

Ok. So now you know how to see the other players loadouts you can begin to think about which loadout you will take.

What to look for in players loadsouts:
Suits
Silenced weapons
Low detection
ECM's

Stealth will look like this:

PS: Dont mind the medic bag...this is where i joined.

Loud

Right, stealth is out of the way now how to tell of players are playing loud.

What to look for in players loadsouts:
Armour
Suits (dodge builds, lookout for the weapons they're using)
Heavy weapons
Highly modified
High detection
Low detection (dodge builds, again look for the weapons being used)
Ammo bags, Medic bags, First Aid Kits and Sentry gun.

Loud will look like this: (Yellow indicated something that resembles stealth)

You can see I have 6 detection but im carrying a GL (sometimes used for stealth) but my sidearm doesn't have a silencer which indicates im not stealthing. If you see 3 people with the same build...take a loud build. Also you can see me and the other player using a suit even though he has 75 detection which indicated he's running a dodge build.

Add another one: the music. If it's loud, the music you are listening to before the heist in the loadout screen is the same as the ingame music, if its stealth you dont hear anythin/barely hear any music.

0/0 only find people bringing ECM's into loud on pubs.

You forgot to mention the grinder perk,so I believe you just fully confused people here.
Great job! T_T

Nice silenced weapons in loud

Roxxer 30 Jul, 2015 @ 9:35pm

hes not dodge build but most likely grinder.

seraph 30 Jul, 2015 @ 7:54pm

Lol you have a shit dodge build if you have 75 concealment.

Confirming atura. In the job-lobby, there's a white ghost that turns red when the job has gone loud. This is for jobs in progress only of course.

Theres also a red ghost in place of the normally blue or white one at the top right of your screen under the day if stealth is blown and the rest goes loud. Im not exactly sure if thats a hoxhud only thing though.

@MHSRMZ Exactly what Lanimret said, but I wouldn't say it's so uncommon. I've seen it a few times and hear it being talked about almost every day with the Grinder Perk Deck being out. I never really play with the same people either. The set up is really strong
