I'm going to begrudgingly buy it because Homeworld 1 & 2 were amazing, but I'm still pissed off at Gearbox after the Aliens: Colonial Marines debacle.

All the *skeets*. All of them, everywhere.
It's sad to me, honestly, that old games and HD versions of old games (read Lucasarts on GoG) are more exciting than anything actually new right now. Hollywood is the same way, mostly reboots. |

This is exciting news! I hope they either rerelease the Collector's edition, or release a physical copy edition because I don't want to use steam for this.
Honestly though, I'm excited! |

Yes, but perhaps they will make more for sale, I might actually get it as this would be the only collector's edition that I would want for any game. Really though, I just want a physical copy of it and not some digital copy via steam. |

Awesome... on the wishlist it goes.
Really hoped they fixed the fleet mechanics. Capital ships should stay in formation, while fighters and corvettes patrol within a sphere around the task force. Micromanagement and stupid low unit caps pissed me off to no end. |

Seeing the Ads for this. I reinstalled my old copies of the Homeworld 1 & 2.
And while looking up how to play it at 1920 x 1080, I ran across thishttp://www.moddb.com/mods/homeworld-2-ultra-high-graphics. Its a update for Homeworld 2. I'm downloading and going to install it later. Hold me over till the remaster comes out. |

So this thing comes out Wednesday the 25th (The day after my birthday ). I don't have class that day, and I also don't have work that day (for some inexplicable reason). I think it was meant to be!
I'll probably even wake up and go to the range first! |

I really wish I had $30 lying around right now. Used to play HW2 a good bit and helped out with a mod some years back. Really looking forward to this game.

I have a date tonight so I probably won't get to play much if at all. Plus last night I accidentally knocked a glass if tea over and some of it got into my fancy mechanical keyboard so I quickly disconnected it and disassembled it and cleaned it out and put it in front of a big fan ask night and day. Hopefully it's ok.

Ok so I'm only about 4 missions in to Homeworld 1 but DAMN they made this game look good. Turn up all the graphics settings. Trust me.

The original game is looking amazing now. It'd be nice if Bethesda remastered Morrowind. I never played that one in its heyday. I know some modders are working on bringing it into the Skyrim engine but who knows if it will ever be finished or done properly.

Anyone having issues with Homeworld 1 crashing? I can't get it to load. HW2 is working though. |

Quoted:
What did you mod I worked with the Homeworld Reborn group, painted some of the very particular HW2 vertex-color based background spheres. Was an interesting process to learn, and Gearbox picked my brain a bit about some artistic and technical stuff. |

Got to Mission 4. Loving it all over again so far with two exceptions.
1) The newest saved games should be at the top of the saved game list. It's a small gripe but it makes little sense to have to scroll down to see the save game you're most likely to load. 2) No windowed fullscreen mode/borderless windowed mode. It's 2015. This should be a standard feature in all games. If a game lacks it you can usually still force it through a few different utilities (which I do). It's annoying but not a huge deal in most games that lack it. BUT!!!!!! Gearbox limits your windowed resolution to the resolution tier BELOW what your native/max resolution is. So Anybody with a 1080p monitor can only play in windowed mode at a 1680x1050 max size. I have a 1440p monitor so I can only window up to 1980x1200. WHAT IN THE HELL were they thinking when they implemented this feature? Trying to force it by editing the CFG file doesn't seem to work. So basically you can't do borderless windowed mode even with a utility because only part of the screen shows the game when you expand the window to full screen. |

Wish they fixed the AI... strike craft have a bad habit of trying to fly directly through things and exploding. Formations still wonky; selecting one cancels all your queued up orders for the group. Capital ships spin slowly in circles trying to figure out where the formation starts.

Capital ships spin slowly in circles trying to figure out where the formation starts. Solution: cheat in a ton of RU's and spam a fuck-ton of strike craft at things. Overall, I'm pleased with it. Strong sales should help HW: Shipbreakers and lead to a HW3. |
