san tok yai has custom weapoms some sort of rapid fire repeaters Edit - copied from the wiki The Yeng'tu Laser Repeater ( Xi'an: ro2thli Yeng2turo’thli Yeng’tu (Proper); literally energy weapon of Yeng'tu; ) is a Xi'an size 3 vehicle laser repeater manufactured by Torral Aggregate.[1][2] It is named after a type of flying insectoid with a painful, burning sting.[3] It has a higher rate of fire than traditional Human-produced laser repeaters of comparable size.
Oh REALLY!?! if that's the case then it could be quite formidable, as it actually has pretty damn good capacitors... I might have to give it another try when they fix the bugs with it & it goes to live...
Totally agree, SpaceCrab has 2 beds, space to sleep, put bodies, take your helmet off etc and has like 5x as much quantum fuel... Is it 5x better in combat?...
I’m wondering how it does stack up in combat. It looks like it has very similar thruster technology to the Fury and the scm speed seems to be sitting close to the m50. It also has an extra size 3 weapon slot. The downside being that front profile. I can imagine this thing being a beast after master modes release
It's a sad ship because CIG will never improve it. They had a chance and didn't. One day, they will, maybe. But that's Soon TM, meaning year 2070 or never.
@@Mr_J112 It has nothing to do with ''approve'' releasing the Raven, it was a released as part of a contractual agreement. So its not happening unless iNTEL/CiG come to some agreement: ''During the event, Intel demonstrated the unique universe of Star Citizen on Intel Core i9 processor gaming systems equipped with the Intel Optane SSD 900P Series. The two companies also announced that an exclusive in-game ship, the Sabre Raven, will come with all Intel Optane SSD 900P Series purchases for a limited time.''
Ah it is a beaty. Love the carbon viber details. Hope they fix the issues before the patch or atleast quickly after as a hotfix. New weapons look really clean (faster firerate aswell? maybe we can cook up some cheese.. More Alien in the verse please CIG !
@@KillRedBeard that would make for a 50% increase in firepower but SPviewer seems to indicate a 33% increase in firepower, so some data is wrong somewhere...
Great content! I'd hope you'd try low flying with VTOL, because there's some neat tricks you can do with some ships like the Corsair with VTOL and wings up!
Yo Ditty! No worries, I think it might still be good if the weapons stats are accurate, so I'm not melting / upgrading it yet...But I'm also not willing to grind EPTU bounties. Will see how it does when it hits LIVE.
Yeah! Thanks for your comment & I think I have to, I'm aware that those bugs and my dislike of the colour green (and my low bounty rep.) may have weighed heavy is my initial impressions for this ship and I've since found out some interesting aspects to in that I didn't know before, so I think I'll give in a second review once it's in LIVE! :)
Wow that ship is very loud!! Haha well they are really not doing a good job with the ship sound effects anymore . Just look at the crossair , such a beauty but it sounds like a little propeller airplane . Lol
Yeah I agree, WAAAAY too loud, I totally toned it down in editing, but it was pretty deafening to play especially if you want to hear your weapons etc.
Sucks that they launched it with the bugged landing gear. Also that it has such a low QF tank. Not sure yet about the single S2 shield. Have not fought with it yet. Also sucks that the custom repeaters have the same red lasers like the other generic repeaters. Also that they are still so silent. Its expensive aswell. I was rly hyped for it but so far its a letdown. Also its big front profile is bad for combat. I wonder if you can switch out the 4xS3 for fixed S4. But with how fked it already is in the current state i guess they wont let us upgrade them. Also it is not as agile as they sold it to us. That all really is a kick in our alien balls. I guess it wont stay long in my fleet sadly 😢
Yeah man the Quantum Fuel tank is pretty useless, especially if you want to use it to travel around stanton killing bounties, Spacecrab has like 5x it's quantum fuel. Those weapons were definitely an opportunity to break the mold with the weapons at least they fire faster!
It seems to be very effective in combat and I am sure the clipping will get fixed but... I wonder how easy it is to shoot one of the arms off because they hold vital components! Fly too low and lose the bottom left arm and the ship loses its power supply and cooler so it is effectively dead. Way too expensive. For £65 you can buy a Syulen that has 3 S4 guns plus bed, cargo, 12 S2 missiles and about four times the fuel. OK the Syulen would lose a head to head fight but I still wonder if getting a bigger shield and an extra gun is worth having no interior and paying three times as much.
@@kaventiaplays it flies just as badly on live servers as it did on the EPTU. Despite looking good it’s all around very poor. It’s maneuverability (save cutting the wings off) is still nowhere good enough to compensate for its enormous profile. In fact it’s worse than the Gatac Suylen on the whole in terms of pitch yaw and roll. Sadly it’s always cut to pieces by the time it’s close enough to its opponent to begin trading fire and I say trading fire because that’s about the best you can do with it since it cannot fight positionally at all. The boost tank runs out too fast for it to be maneuverable by the time it’s closed the gap Since the guns will be nerfed soon it really has nothing going for it at this point. And the guns just awful who thought mandatory size 3 gimbals was a good idea. We’ll see how they tune it. But as of now it hardly matches the highly maneuverable super predator that we were sold.
@@MadM0nte Yeah I agree, on pretty much all of your post, but; it does have decent tri-cording and I think the alpha has already been nerfed, meaning despite having great capacitors it's not as good as I'd hoped.
Love the green goblin paint!
I'm glad you do, Green just isn't for me... :-/

Oh, are they better than Panthers?
@@KG-jt1mw acording to the leaflet the ship has size 3 Yeng'tu Laser Repeaters
that have higer fire rate than average repeaters

Thank you for your comments @ParanoidCarrot !
@@kaventiaplays yes im very curious are they any good. i usually like absurd fire rates or one big old cannon shot
I have to admit i bought it, xian ships are just so cool, if there ever is a xian combat ship size of constallation im all in
Sounds like the GATAC Railen to be honest... Carries more cargo, and might have the same guns on the turrets... 😉
But no internal space for vehicles.
こんにちは TokYai San! (^_^)
Arigato Gozimasu!
My main issue with this ship is that it is too expensive to not have an interior
Totally agree, SpaceCrab has 2 beds, space to sleep, put bodies, take your helmet off etc and has like 5x as much quantum fuel... Is it 5x better in combat?...
Totally!
Yeah I totally agree, for dollar price, but you could say the same about the F8, F7 etc.

@@g-mon2369 Yeah, it's going to be agile as hell and those weapons might be something special...
What is the Sabre Raven? Why is it so Rare???

Have you tested it out much? Is the extra fire rate significant?... Is the Alpha the same?...
allpha is the same but the firerate is 750rpm where other s3 only has 500rpm@@kaventiaplays

Of course it's noisy, you're litterally in a bubble surrounded by 4 main thrusters + the manoeuver thrusters ^^
Yeah but it was poor audio design. I madr it MUCH more quiet in editing. My issue council bug report was about the sound was accepted by CIG. ;)
two of your negs are bugs lol, i own one as i

I bought the Syulen just because… now thinking for the others 😮

@@kaventiaplays yeah and the rocket launch everytime 🚀
Sucks that they launched it with the bugged landing gear.
Also that it has such a low QF tank.
Not sure yet about the single S2 shield. Have not fought with it yet.

Syulen has 3x S3s but you're right on the rest Syulen is a GREAT value alien ship in comparison, but we both know which would win in a fight.
Give it a chance after they fix it!
Yes, I think I will try it again when it's released to LIVE Servers!
@@kaventiaplays it still sucks :'(

Falls apart super easy as well. Kind of a glass canon.
Yeah, I haven't checked HP yet, but feel like it needs more testing!
Your dedication to your craft is truly admirable, keep it up.
Thank you! ❤
I like the green meany, apart from on the yellow planet. 🤮
Yeah, maybe I should have picked an Ice planet for the cool blues...
