Because they exist as much as anyone else I assume. The hair's gonne be there a lot, I can spoil you as much, and the overreactions are sadly not going to get better, that much I can spoil. :/

I was thinking it might've worked just coming out of one of the ports. :D

I agree. That doesnt mean it's completely bad though.

I'll be with you all the way!

And thank you for watching them!

I stick with "better than no Homeworld at all". Maybe I'm lucky and they patch at least the pathfinding and some other nuisances.

I guess people would then complain about the stupidly simple plot.

Might've been multiple writers, might've turned out not to be fun otherwise, we might never know.

Yeah... we will never know why...

As with many Strategy games, if they wouldn't have cut down their forces into small, defeatable fleats, we would've lost at Kala Terminus..... or, if they didn't all rally up in time, just a few missions later, but then it wouldn't have been a game. *G* Thank you for watching, it is appreciated.

Well all I can say is it's not gonna get better, so if that annoys you so much you might want to consider sparing you the waste of time.

There are similarities to the beginning of Homeworld 1. Back in this very early part I thought it to be a nice touch, even if similar~ish to what has been done before.

Now having completed the Story it feels like a modern take on a 20 year old Franchise, happily ignoring anything inconvenient to the plot, sadly not having the best story and focusing on things that are modern today while messing it up for the old fans. While I was happy to have a new game, the turnout could've been way better, yet I prefer this over no Homeworld 3.

I am a die hard Homeworld Fan, been playing the Original when it came out etc..... it is certainly a lesser Homeworld than the previous entries, but it could also have been much much worse.

You exagerrating is an understatement... game is good. Plays well. Finished it twice already on hard.

Yepp... it's like "Don't worry, you'll know what to do when you get there". The smartest thing to do for whoever is behind all this would've been to just let us jump to Noctuua 27 that first time we tried.

It is a very localised cloud though, at least the part where the mothership hides in. :)

That would be even more of a niche game than Homeworld is...

True... but what other recent ones are there even?

@@Taorakis I'd say Nebulous: Fleet Command and Battlefleet Gothic Armada 1 & 2 are comparable as they heavily focus on the tactical side of a space confict. The rest are 4X games that are more focused on managing your empire than in tactics e.g. Stellaris, Masters of Orion (the newest one), not mentioning Endless Space as its combat systems are a joke.

@@georgebethanis3188 Oh yeah I remember seeing reviews on some of them, Gothic Armada in particular.

Maybe she wanted to lure out Karan with that... I am not 100% sure myself.

The villain is an OG member of their species. The kind that gave the entire galaxy a reason to make Kharak into a prision back in the original Homeworld. She is too much Old Testament.

Yeah that one was not the best. Also the Mothership just tanks the Asteroids like nothing, compared to that Collision with the Freighter before you'd think it would get rekt much quicker.

They need to bd tought some Hiigaran Discipline soon!

DoK plays .. I think like 100years before the OG Homeworld even, as it took the Hiigarans that long to build the first Mothership. Maybe it's just a Design that they like and it's totally super upgraded inside. They are EV's now instead of those pesky V12s or something.

As it was destined to happen with Homeworld 3! Welcome back too!

And not a single one more!

They certainly start with a bang here...

Even watching my video of me playing that mission gives me the creeps. This whole situation of "every ship you have can be taken from you" is super scary to me.

Yeah verticalling it would, if it's realistic increase the space to be hit like ... ten times? So better not. :P

Yeah she really needs a Hair Band.... can be a sci fi one if need be. :P

RESET AND TRY AGAIN!

Sorry this wasn't totally clear. There is a video explaining the backstory of the previous games, and what the goal is in this game, you can find it here: czcams.com/video/vrPgq1jToMw/video.html Short Version: We are setting out to find out why the anomaly is spreading and where + why the previous expedition vanished. :)

@@Taorakis Thanks

Yes! Sadly it turns back horizontal in cutscenes and at the start of every mission.

Reminds me of a Nokia N-gage.

Hmm the character is under a lot of stress but I see where you're coming from.

Throwing Asteroids at planets was never a nice thing to do. And hyperspacing them on to planets is neither!

I am pretty sure the Performance issues will pop up once bigger fleets show up and heavy combat comes into play. Fingers crossed it is getting updated till then!

For once, the Hype is real!

The more the less chance any enemy shot gets through. :P

I abuse it as Tank as often as I can. ;)

Thank you very much. :)

I know it's super late for a reply but the things you can check: -Did you upgrade your ship from the startership -Did you upgrade the systems, specially the shield generator in that case -Are you maybe using some sort of mod that might have changed the Weapon strenghs of the enemies? -Are you flying at full speed? I usually boost right towards the enemies, or at least in the vague direction so you can get away from infront of them and get behind them, and then try to pick them off as fast as you can. -Make sure to fire Countermeasures for their Missles It is pretty tough when they all got you in sights.

@@Taorakis Yep, I fly the best ship availabel at the point in the game, best shields and other systems, no mods, full speed. The only thing in your list I did not do is flying _towards_ them. I always try to get away and no matter how I maneuvre they just hit me and kill in no time.

@@Ajhidd Try the head on approach! And if all failes, worst case you can mod your savegame to give you battleship shields or something. I did not do that here in this playthrough, but i've tried a lot of things in the past 15 playthroughs.

I think i really put afford into not loosing too many ships, therefore I don't need to spend a lot on rebuilding...... short versions, i save and load a lot to optimize battles, it is a bot of a cheesy way to play, but that's how i do that.

I didn't even notice at the time, i usually watch the target are and waited for the impact, i just saw it "in post". :P

Well i am happy i could help. Even if i only see your comment nearly a year after the fact.

I sacrifised a lot there to capture that Destroyer, but yes those Coupled Fighters work well!

Thank you for sticking with me. It really encourages me to know there is at least someone actually watching the videos. It was enjoyable, I also redid the ending 2 or 3 times to make it look good, I got one better version ..... were the record didn't record so it was for naught, so I stuck with the original fiorst time playthrough. Also because it would look weird if I somehow react to everything the Mission triggers before it even triggers. I do plan on making at least one more video, with Voiceover to talk about the game and the playthrough, just not sure when i get around to it. :)

You mean the Tech Side of things? This is the original CD Version, with a NoCD Patch for convenience and since I just couldn't afford the game when it came out in 2000. I own it by now of course. I started playing with the D3D Settings and in between switched to OpenGL, which turned the fire effect when a ship is on low health white for some reason and the "bullets" from the ships red instead of white. With D3D it seems to be impossible to get the game run in more than 1600x1200 or 1600x900 (widescreen) so that's what i started with, but with OpenGL i was able to switch to 1920x1080. I could've played and recorded in 4k too, it would be super sharp, but the interface doesnt scale and in the Non-GoG Version the text would be super tiny. So i stuck with FullHD. I hope that was what your question was about. If not, feel free to ask more. :)

Yeah they are "immune" because they have no infection texture would be my guess. :)
