- STAR CITIZEN - THE RAILEN WILL BE AMAZING
In this video we take a look at Star Citizen's Gatac Railen.
This alien concept ship is a cargo hauler with some pretty impressive attributes. External cargo holding 320 SCU, multiple decks and plenty of moving parts this 4 man ship appears to be on a very impressive trajectory. Gatac’s first foray into the human market, the Railen is an elegant interspecies vessel perfect for any Human or Xi’an pilot looking for a safe, reliable solution for commercial-grade medium cargo hauling. Utilizing patented grav-lev technology, and time-tested designs updated for 2951 and beyond, the Railen is a prime example of why the Xi’an Empire has trusted House Gatac with production of its industrial vessels for centuries.

Star Citizen's Gatac Railen , this ship really surprised me. Packed with cool alien tech and many moving parts the Railen looks fantastic inside and out. I look foward to seeing its arrival in the verse if the concepts images hold true, the Railen from Gatac has the potential to be a classic! BUT what do you guys think about the Railen? As always let me know down below!!
One of my most anticipated ships. I was sad when it dropped off the in-work list, considering they told us it would get worked on after the San'Tok.yai.
renaming this ship the HAWK'TUAH
We'll probably never see it. Bought it a few years ago & it's not on the work list and basically just pictures. They dropped it for the tiny Syulen.
I too at first said meh, but when I took a closer look a few months ago, I was impressed by what I saw, so I purchased a cheap Terrapin to Railen CCU to hold a spot for when this ship comes out.
Now, this ship will compete heavily with the Hull B, a much cheaper ship that holds more cargo. I'm hoping the price difference isn't merely in the style and animations. Now if it indeed has two S3 shields, that's already pretty impressive. My *hope* is that CIG will make her fast so she can act like a proper blockade runner. Sadly, it doesn't look, despite its size, that it will be able to fit any ground vehicles at all other than maybe trying to cram a Pulse into that gravlev elevator.
the pods at 9:30 are nutrition amphoras for the xi'an, because from what i remember they only eat fermented and aged food otherwise they wouldn't digest it, so it's just the alien kitchen
@potatomicrowaves oh that's awesome! Thankyou, I like the ship even more now!
I have one and will also be getting a Hull B for similar cargo size, quick load/unloading but still for different uses. The Railen will be great for long range more protected runs while the Hull B for more security bound system to system runs.
makes sense
Love the look of this ship, still secretly hoping that the cargo pods use the Xian tech & float to surface for quick loading/unloading
In Q&A for gatak they mentioning that the triangle pots are just cans to hold standard SCU boxes
So it is mix between hull series and fully enclosed ships
why I bought a CCU to it at concept is because there are many ships that can hold 66-128 SCU. (the Taurus wasn't in game at the time) and then there was this big jump to the 450-ish SCU level with the Carrack. 576 in the Cat, and 695 (I can't remember) in the C2. then anather HUGE jump to the 3000 neighborhood of the BMM and Hull C. I needed a stepping stone between the 120 of my FL Max and the 450 of my Carrack. Railen: 320. and now even better, Taurus at 174(?)
Another big advantage to factor in here is it is fully integrated to work with Xian freight services. Currently all other ships use UEE standards which do not interoperate well with Xian standards (time sink). Listen carefully this was the point she emphasised, it interoperates with both UEE and Xian standards hence the pinnacle of High tech cargo haulers. I suspect it may be able to matter beam the materials into those pods.
I am waiting for the BMM to be released. I purchased by BMM 2 years ago and cant wait for it to come out. I am going to be living in my BMM. It will be my mobile home base
Great video and extra points for putting the clips Cherie in it.
@@Ryecrash617 thanks
great video, thanks for digging and making us a video
@@donnys2965 thankyou, glad you enjoyed it.
Great video, I would love to justify a pledge to one of these. I was never interested until I got a Syulen, and the design of this and the Syulen is amazing! I'm hoping it has Syulen-like speed and long range/efficiency. I cant wait to see what CIG does to make it attractive over other cargo ships that transport more goods and are cheaper to get.
@@JL-rj9fl I'm hoping for sorcery cargo removal with some xi an hover tech XD
@@PIN-o7 lol, if we can get floating stairs I feel that if there's a will, there's a way. 😄
We'll probably never see it. Bought it a few years ago & it's not on the work list and basically just pictures. They dropped it for the tiny Syulen.
I picked one up even though I knew it be a while before I'd see it, the loaners are decent. Just hope I get to fly it before I die ..my goodness sc is falling behind dramatically!
granted its bigger than most think but its also smaller than you think. it has 3 levels sure but the first 2 are looking like they will have to be really narrow. so it wont feel so large. last level seems to be really wide tho looking good in art anyways..
i also love this idea and pledged it as soon as i could :D
loaners are Conny T and Zyulen
I really want the railen to be released but I would be suprised if we get it in less than 2 years simply due to it being a ship that probably needs at least a year of development from a moderatly sized team, this year and next year has some pretty big rsi projects (polaris/galaxy/perseus and potentially the arastra). I am allways up for being plessantly suprised but I would reccomend having patciance with this one.
Not sure if you see this, but just as far as those ‘cylinders’ go in that shot after the bathroom, that’s the kitchen area.
In the lounge coloured concept there’s two sorta halls, one each side, of the big dining table with archways leading through. Those are the kitchen and bathrooms respectively, and the kitchen has both a human food and drinks processor in the centre section, along with a general prep table it seems, and all those cylinders are fermentation vessels as Xi’An only eat fermented foods. It has been confirmed in the original dev diary about it I believe but I can’t find the link right now, but yeh those are for fermenting foods to eat for the Xi’An crew
Other interesting facts is that the bathroom has a human toilet shower combo on the left and a xian on on the right, the reason for this is Xi’an showers ideally need to have a very rough and sharp exfoliation pad for longer journeys, not an issue with the syulen which is more a runabout, but for the railen it’s vital for keeping their carapace clean.
The sink is also a human sink(?), notably it doesn’t have the same appearance as the one we see in the syulen, which is designed to be both a sink and toilet for human and xi’an respectively. Xi’an pee wierd…
But given this is a multicrew ship they can’t just mix them into one like that as, well no human wants to wash their hands and face in a toilet…
So I assume they will have either two ‘sinks’ to cover either ourpose or have a dedicated and different looking urinal system for the Xi’an
Other fun facts, just behind the cockpit area is a components roulette system, so a large proportion (not all) of the components are stored there behind a control panel, when you need one you can simply interact wi th the panel and tell it to bring up a component and it will lift it up and ferry it directly to you for repair or replacement.
This will be a MASSIVE benefit once engineering comes fully online and also make crewing this thing with fewer people much easier.
This is why imo the galaxy is a 6 crew while this can operate with only 4
Another group of players are also very happy for u to fly this thing in the verse, they are called pirates.
@9:48 looks like engineering, i remember hearing or reading somewhere that the components would come to the engineer instead of the engineer going to the components, or at least for most of the components. the missiles, 2xs4 rack and 2xs3 rack
9:30 having seen all the alien movies, I would not put my face over the top of those cylinders.
good job there not on the reclaimer!
This ship looks incredible, but probably won't get it since I'm not interested in cargo gameplay. I hope we keep seeing more vehicles from this manufacturer though.
Got the Railen myself. I picked it up on the first sale. Can't wait for the ship to release!
I've been waiting for years for the one I bought, doubt we'll ever see it.
I pledged for the Railen, seeing a potential for a really interesting ship, and if the Syulen is any indication I do think it's going to be a very unique experience.
I do wonder if it would have been better for the turrets to be angled towards the rear instead of the front to better deal with enemies pursuing the ship though.
Excuse me? Just discovered? Dude. 😂
Great video. I have brought, and am waiting for this ship just like I did the MSR. I'll be living inside this baby! 😅
@@JohnnyStroud yep. Terrible I know lol
@@PIN-o7 😆NO Worries, all that counts is that now you know its a GEM!
I wonder if they decide to change the landing to be more like the syulen with vertical takeoff perhaps when it is fully loaded
I bought this ship a while back and still have it in my hangar line up but I will be surprised if it gets in game before 2026. CIG has so much work to do in bug fixing that I don’t know if much development of ships is high on the priority list. I want this ship in my hands so badly it irritates me when ships like the Syulen and Zeus get completed in game before ships that were announced and sold MUCH longer ago.
To bad all the designers and builders quit CIG.
Railen has potential as a fast long range hauler.
The cargo boxes look like nightmare fuel for manual loading.
If they made it more flexible (external cargo grid) then it would be a winner.
I have one but I'm thinking of trading it in. Right now with the proprietary cargo, I wonder how it's going to work in a 3.24 and beyond environment
For me, it looks that Railen will by more pirate ship.
@14:02 those beds are on second deck no? if you look at the walls you think they are sleeping close to the cargo, at least that is my guess
So are they FINALLY gonna make it? We also need a medium alien salvage ship
is said to have a tractor beam and as far as i know the only/first ship to have a 'shield emitter ' component.
I have one from original concept 2021, i'm a bit disappointed that the Syulen came out first! But I guess CIG will learn from the smaller version!
Its a little odd that its around the same size as the Hercules but half the cargo size.. Also the cargo containers look very specific to the Railen. These don't break anything for me but noteworthy!
@1R3TR01 good things come to those who buy alien ships and wait!! Ha ha, like yourself I will be buying this ship!
Sadly I think it will be on the back burner for a long time because of the shape of the cargo pods
The cargo boxes have the potential to be a huge downside.
Kills flexibility for salvage, potentially makes manual loading a nightmare, and for the cargo capacity gives zero vehicle hauling.
@@Kyle-sr6jm I just found out there not cargo boxes, they are fixed to the ship and either containers go inside or the product go inside them, sort of like the starferer tanks.
Waiting for mine as well!!!
So with cargo now physical, how is that gonna work with proprietary alien cargo?
Hmmm another long wait... ow well...
@PIN the containers in the particular image you were looking at are fermentation pods in the galley of the ship. Xi'an like molds and fermenting various foods sauces and drinks and have various recipes passed down through their long lived families its a very cool addition showing its a dual species ship
thats awesome thankyou! thats so kewl
I bought this like 3 years ago, I've stopped playing and your telling me this ship still isn't out. Yet! 😂 haha
Having triangles just to have triangles makes absolutely zero sense. But even if it somehow works in Xian infrastructure, the human infrastructure likes to stack cubes. Our current SCU containers can snap in anyway you desire because they are cubes. Not sure why they couldn't just do square SCU containers. Even more confusing since the Syulen uses 1SCU cube crates.
The lighting needs to be better in their ships line, its to dark now.
They'll never put this ship into the game. If they do, it will be nerfed until becoming completely useless and will include almost zero features advertised in the original concept.
The worst $1368 USD I ever wasted in my life. Scam Citizen... the game that fits into no genre, and gets worse with every patch ™️
Stay away from pre-Alpha video game projects & buy yourself a nice motorbike instead - ideally over 600c.
A much better way to spend your hard-earned & you'll forget about most video games in an instant.
This moron goes to every SC vid and says the same stupidity. Nothing but an attention seeker
I wish you spent more to have a cry about kid you will never get any of it back and that is hilarious to me
the features are already here there is xian ships in squadron 42 they already showed in the past and the serv will get better only with dynmamic sever meshing this is what we all waiting for i dont know if we follow the same project but you can sell your ship in grey market if you want
When you stop crying, close the door when you leave, sir.
Remember the Railen
I'm surprised this ship never dropped in alien week or with 3.24.....
@@thegamingtribunal shame it didn't tbh.
Damn, looks like this ship will be huge, like reclaimer.
@qutatron it's very deceptive size wise. I believe from memory it's 55 or 60 metres long. I look forward to it.
Its going to be another gimmick ship with no purpose. The fact that it has those triangular cargo boxes means there will be no cross compatability with literally any other ship in the game, or there will be immersion breaking transmog.
Got one last year and melted it for a Corsair later. Kinda regret that now ngl.
Lol i have that jpeg... im doubting i will see it in my life time thoug...
Genuinely excited for the release of this ship. Probably this will release before the Merchantman.
im happy for either to release before each other, both fantastic ships.
This is an efing Tristan from EVE online... They can't design a single original ship....
I need this!
@@Tiggerlooker yep. Me too!
I love gatac. when they released the concept of it i was in love. the Syulen was an instant pledge for me and it is my most flown ship! Can't wait to see this come to live
i like this ship
@@burgerpops7182 me too
Not seeing it anytime soon but it is a beautiful ship
This ship will likely be aweful for hauling. It either gets unique cargo sizes/boxes, or you'll have to fit cargo in the triangles. Either way, it'll be an absolute nightmare to load because it seems like you'll only be able to fit smaller scu boxes. It was only designed for looks with no gameplay in mind. It looks awesome, and i was sold initially, but now it's seems like a huge waste of money
The top of the railen should be a landing pad for a syulien
that is a superb idea!
Bigger is not better.
Been waiting on this one for a while, really hoping it comes out soon.
I believe it was in long term production, so fingers crossed!
Cracking ship and it’s in my CCU chain up to something else. I really hope this comes out soon as it is so cool. In terms of SCU capacity it’s similar to the Hull B (though not quite as much) so in my mind it’s in that Hill B category of cargo hauler. I wonder if we will see Gatac Mining ships 🤔
@@PsyEm-p1j a gatac minig ship would be amazing. I bet it would look super cool.
@@PIN-o7 just thinking about this. Wouldn’t it be awesome if the mining arms deployed and retracted using that invisible grav-lev technology used in their lifts! 🤩
@@PsyEm-p1j YES!
Oh yeah i just can't wait to try this ship.
I already love my Syulen so yeah, hyped.
Another Rule of Cool design without a purpose.
How would you interact with those absurd containers?
In and out if an hangar with front doors?
A single entry?
How many Suy'Len ship do you see flying, a months after release?
Hard pass with an alien tax!
I just want a stealth cargo ship. I love the idea of smuggling and have been having a lot of fun with stealth gameplay in the current build
That's a good idea to be fair. Stealth cargo sounds good to me.
Much like the Endeavor, the game has progressed to a point where these ships could in principal be viable, in the case of the Endeavor, CIG have the Hull assets, which is what they intend to build out the Odyssey with, to a certain extent, also CIG have Cargo sorted in principal, Modules are also possible now, tractor beams are well developed, and we have Pyro, jump points and a massive dev pool to draw from, quite possibly a couple of years away though. The Syulen was possibly a prototype to test out the concept/mechanics and flight dynamics for the Railen, this ship could get dropped in Alien Week, or even IAE, the Railen is a more realistic, practical and useable ship for many. PS: You also get the: Constellation Taurus,/Syulen as Loaners, which is a nice choice.
@davewills6121 CIG are certainly making progress and seem to be on the right path. The next few years is where I think all the pieces begin to fall into place. One step at a time we are getting there.
The Syulen came after the Railen being the little brother of the Railen. To bad all the designers and builders quit CIG leaving us with these old concepts @Pin showed.
thanks for the video, this ship struck me immediately, and many others like me. I wonder when we will be able to see her in game? Having the syulen in game gave me a lot of hope because it means that technologies, lighting, sounds and much more are available for the syulen "in game". But time passes and this ship still cannot be seen on the horizon........ 😒
Oh Greaaaat! You made me get another ship, before even the video reached to the end... D'OH!
Dammit @Spaceman-PIN , stop making cool promo videos, wallets have feelings too, you know?!
ha ha ha ha...my bad buddy. My wallet is also pretty pissed at me right now lol.
It will be shit like every other alien ship they put into the game, a cool but flashy side grade at best that costs twice as much as similar UEE ships. It will be broken on release and won't be "fixed" until two years after release and demonstrate few if any of its advertised strengths and attributes. Best it can do is be a rung on a CCU ladder if the game is even still alive in two years.
This year will either be the highest or second highest earning year for the project. So it’ll be alive in two years.
If it’ll be any closer to genuinely playable…. Well, who knows. Gotta break that 0 for 12 years with a stable product streak at some point right?
@@piedpiper1172 I think it’s take the money and run time soon.
@@MadM0nte Who takes it? With what goal?
This isn’t a publicly traded company that can do an action legally distinct from pump and dump by using company revenue to buy stock before cashing out.
Chris Roberts is already independently rich, and he’s being given millions a year to chase his wildest little boy dreams. He’s already reached the point of “taking the money and running,” only backers have actively agreed for him to just… keep chasing that dragon.
I want to be clear. I think CR is a trash tier project manager, and I think SC suffers for it. But, again, he’s already rich and he’s actively being given millions with which to stroke his ego.
There is no better island for him to abscond to. No hobby he wishes he was doing instead. Man turned his hobby into the most supported go fund me ever.
