What a wasted opportunity. The trailer didn't have the famous adagio for strings.

God, it's been damn near a decade since I played Homeworld... but I still cannot hear this music without tearing up.
"Kharak... is burning..."

I wonder how many mothers played these games that we played I know they play mmo but RTS 

you are not the only one thats y there is a father gamer thread 

Even as fathers/grand fathers we still game. Since we are chinese we should have our offsprings burning us steam$$ or just burry us next to gabe when we die 

TB's video

Most probably well in another 15hrs we will know btw radkliler you getting this game?

Dayum

quazacolt How large is the game?

Is it me or after all this years nobody has actually made a HW clone? even surpassing this glorious gem?

Wut took u so long?

Other games?

well... i found a few bugs on homeworld remastered version....

1. tutorial keep continuing without me hitting the "OK" button
2. Support frigates are useless.
3. Capturing mechanics broken
4. queues limited to 2?
5. Collision system is broke, stuff like resource collecters and other ship crash into astroids or other objects and then attempt to push through them instead of moving back.
6. camera views are glitchy and does not allow you zoom in far without annoyance or get a good view of battle without going to tactical view

maybe its just you, but for me:
2. they repair my ships just fine....try this; instead of having them in the strike group, have them guard that strike group...also..set them as passive/neutral stance...if u put them on aggressive they will focus on enemy instead of providing repair support (just a theory...memory a bit hazy after 10yrs not playing)
5. never had this problem...they seems to move around objects just fine ...except for mission 6 (or was it 7?) where ur fleet need to navigate through the asteroid field...thats normal (i lost my captured destroyer in that mission =_=")

Playing the remastered, there are some issues which I feel the original is vastly superior. When playing as the Kushan, I noticed it is dumbed down:-
1) The support frigate and support corvette has an extremely short healing beam. In the original the healing beam is at least a frigate's length and it is a huge water spray compared to a trickle in this version. Now the support frigate/corvette need to be right next to the ship you are repairing before it even starts repairing.
2) Formations are USELESS. UTTERLY USELESS. I cannot have a wall of frigates like last time. No sphere of defenders around a friendly ship. No claw of bombers swallowing a capital ship.
4) Construction queue system is weird. Can construct 2 things at a time? Last time the mothership can build multiple items at the same time so long you have money
5) More options when it comes to resources. I want resource injections every 1 minute

Also, the heavy cruiser is now extremely overpowered. I recall its ion beams isn't so overpowered and the range isn't very far.  Now it has high health, no weaknesses since you cannot destroy the ion beam sub-system and has super dooper range.

From what I can see, it is the HW 1 units in a HW2 environment. Hence the way the support frigate and corvettes act the same like the HW2 repair unit. Also the resource collector works the same like the HW2 resource collector.

Then the bugs I encountered, in 1 skirmish game the battle and fleet command chatter just stop. No more battle chatter from my units anymore. So the rest of the battle very silent.  Still got sound effects though.

Atleast the salvage corvettes still works  managed to capture a few HW2 carriers and destroyers in skirmish haha.

You dont need to play HW1 to understand HW2. They have their own separate story going, although they are some reference to HW1.

Though i find that HW1 was much harder in the remastered.

Afk means away from keyboard  meaning auto collect?

I just finished the campaign in hw 1 classic as the taiidani. To my surprised the the cut scenes and voiceovers for some dialog has been changed so that you are fighting the evil Kushan empire rather than the Taiidani. Like captain Elson mentioned that the Kushan empire is corrupt instead of the usual cut scene where the Taiidani empire will be mentioned instead. Then at the end you get to destroy the banana mother ship in Kushan elite guard colors.

Also, resource gathering is a pain. I actually let my harvester go about its thing in the Kadeshi mission and do other thing like build a Lego set in front of the monitor. Another terrible mission is the ghost ship mission where the resources are scattered over the entire map. That mission is a short one, but the asteroids are all over the map!!!

At the end I stole about 55 ion cannon frigates from the second last mission. Plus 4 turanic ion frigate and 4 kadesh multi beam frigates. The last mission was stupidly easy and I was so in control of the battle that captain Elson never showed up!!

Have not played the remastered hw 1 campaign yet. Heard got a lot of game breaking bugs.

So true! In the last mission my 1 dozen salvage corvettes overwhelmed 1 attacking heavy cruiser and still have left over to steal 1 destroyer after they snag a heavy cruiser. If only I can record how hilarious it was stealing frigate after frigate in the hyperspace inhibitor mission. All you have to do is:-
1) Lure a group of frigates with a group of scouts.
2) Move the scouts away from the group, preferably some distance so that the frigates never reach those scouts.
3) Slowly command a pair of salvage corvettes for each frigate as they move to attack the scouts. They will totally ignore your corvettes as long as the scouts are still alive and they never see your corvettes when you first lure them.
