Gatac Syulen Review | Star Citizen 3.22 4K Gameplay

In this video, I review the Star Citizen starter ship, the Gatac Syulen, including a tour as well as detailed ship review. I include gameplay footage of the Gatac Syulen in 4K at 60FPS (or as close as I could get). The gameplay for this Star Citizen Gatac Syulen starter ship review is from patch 3.22.

I’m surprised how much I love this ship. It handles great and it feels kind of homey on the living quarters deck compared to any of the other starters. It definitely has me excited for the Railen in the future!

[sherky]

It may not be the best, but it is easily my favorite starter ship of all the available options, simply because of the unique and beautiful alien design, and it makes me incredibly excited to see how the Railen will look.

Since I purchased the Gatac Syulen during IAE, this has become my daily driver. It is simply a fantastic ship to jet around in. Love it!

I love the design and really hope they redesign the Railen to be vertically oriented also.

My Starter Ship was a Cutter but I never played with it (needed a new PC) and by the time I acquired a new computer this ship was in the store so I turned what was probably the easiest ship to learn the game through for one of the hardest and honestly I wouldn't change a thing. I love the aesthetic, the design both reminded me of the Gorgons from Destiny 1 AND had a more Forward positioned Propulsion system which for some reason is my absolute favorite design in ships like the Naboo Starfighter. It feels nice in combat, I have better ships for that now but it's still a great piece. Being able to just blast off like a rocket off every planet or top-hanger is always funny to me, but leaving side-hangers is where I really feel like I'm a better pilot than I really am.

When I first saw someone just immediately jettison themselves out of a New Babbage hanger while still facing straight up I had to learn how to do that every time. It's not that hard, just need to realize what direction you actually move when you strafe but it's always super satisfying when you do it. It makes me feel like I'm actually becoming a decent pilot as I get more acclimated with it.

Light controls. They allow internal color scheme changes. they are very noticeable on the bed floor and flying but it’s nice for a custom vibe

I love this ship but I spent 20 minutes looking for the cargo hold. I didn’t realize it was outside 😅

Love the Syulen. As I've said in other content, as long as you can get used to landing on your back and not your butt it can do everything the non-vehicle moving starters can do. It's great.

[ericstlouis]

This one looks massive! So I can't wait to see how the Railen stacks up!

[christopherhancock]

Wow, that thing is bigger than I thought it would be.

Love the Syulen. It's fast, agile, has the same armaments as a Gladius. The Avenger and Nomad are the only ships that really come close, and on paper they both blow the Syulen out the water, but I think it is not a controversial statement that the Syulen just looks so much nicer and feels cozier (or just as cozy as the Nomad). Besides, it reminds me of Vex Harpies from Destiny, so that's cool.

I've really been looking forward to this review, thank you. o7

Fascinating, I love this ship and I think I will upgrade from my other starter ship 👾

[atomicwrath]

Love my Syulen. Sure, it's not a great pvp fighter, but the look alone and the maneuverability makes it a satisfying purchase.

[Neoai]

One of the highly polished ships I have ever seen. Really shines.

I've found my Syulen extremely easy to fly. Take offs and landings are a different story. Take offs are only difficult in side entry hangars and even then they are easy enough with a few steps.
1). Request take off
2). Use freelook to look at the hangar doors by looking between the players legs.
3). Wait for the hangar doors to fully open. While waiting set the ship speed limiter just above zero.
4). Once the hangar doors are open, press W (forward thrust) to lift the ship just off the pad. Once the ship is about 1 meter(yard) off of the pad you can hold control to strafe down and fly out of the hangar. Wait until you are full out of the hangar before trying any maneuvers.
Landings are more difficult. The easy way is to engage landing mode. Fly straight into the hangar then hold N to auto land. Auto land only works on landing pads and hangars though. Landing out in the wild is all manual. If the ground is flat you can use the pitch indicator and set the ship pitch at 90° then press S to reverse to land. You can also press F4 and use the simulated 3rd person landing camera.

I wish the seat just went straight up then you can fly in landing mode like a lunar lander, then when retracting landing gear the seat swivels to normal flight mode

[votpavel]

wow, i cant believe its got so much interior

[BigBobBlazer]

The alien ship we never knew we never wanted. Where's my Railen!
