Well done, you did the switching of sequences very well and in time with the music.

0:38

Makaan: “OH SHI-”

My god. It’s been soooo long.

Homeworld was my first online game. The memories are… horrible xDD

I’m not sure how you could get stuck in the original Homeworld. For the first three missions, wings of Interceptors will wipe out enemy Fighter and Corvette attacks, and by mission three have a couple Salvage ‘Vettes to swipe and retire the enemy Assault Frigates.

On the fourth mission, again Interceptors on the strike craft and Salvage Corvettes to steal the Ion Array Frigates.

After that, from every mission out, steal everything that’s an Ion Cannon Frigate or bigger. It’s almost too easy.

The litle intro song can be found with: Oh fortuna

From 0:05 it’s all the opening theme for the TV series: Battlestar Galactica, the newest series.

6

What is this music????

7

It would actually fit well in the Homeworld series music…

8

Yaay dude :D Battlestar galactica theme song

9

Hmm yeah i haven’t really played HW1 that long, since i got raped by ion frigates in a mission pretty hard :p

10

ok, i found my disk but now it freezes up my comp whenever i put it in!!

its maddening!!!

11

hmmm. i often have about 4 carriers, each one devoted to a specific kind of ship and i have them on backorder, so as soon as ships die they are replaced.
you make me curious, i wanna play that game again, it’s been quite awhile, maybe i can get a tip for you

12

but there are limits though,

and even at the limits i have trouble even though i obey the walkthrough on the internet

13

hmmm time to evaluate your tactics! i beat the game easily in a few days, without really trying. i found HW1 harder. you know you can take all the time in the world to build and gather before going to next mission….

14

Or just do what I do when I really get stuck in a game. Do an online search for a walkthrough. :)

Come to think of it, I think I pretty much did what SNoRRo suggested and built a big-ass fleet at the end of the previous mission.

15

Uhm, you should make a big fleet in mission 2, because they will all spawn in the next mission,..

Also, if you look in your game directory there’s a save file of your mission begin status, you can change that in a way you have a ridiculous amount of recourses and units.

16

well, i like to build up my force before going into combat, and on mission 3 you cant do that, nor do you have time to research

and on mission 3 (at least cos i havent gotten past it yet) you can’t gwet a big enough force for ANY tactic to succeed.

iv been stuck on that one level for over a year

17

Gotta disagree. I thought the gameplay was great! I remember having plenty of exciting, edge of my seat moments while playing, hoping I had enough ships and trying to get my forces in the right places once the attack came.

18

the gameplay suks though

19

god homeworld 2 looks as good as any modern rts!

20

This game is very good and very hard

21

Nice job! The music fits in very well.

22

It’s as hard as a bitch to beat.

23

This game is already pretty old, but for its age it can still compete with some of the modern RTS games.
It has an interesting story line, though it is not that complicated.
Its more about controlling fleets than being the commander of 1 ship.

anyway you can get the game for 5 dolars so its worth a shot

24

The graphics look pretty decent (or you have low values because recording) But is the game itself good? Im big fan of hard sci-fi (Alastair Reynolds’ books for example) and Id like to know more about this game. So is this all about commanding your units or can you fly your own ship itself? And how big the galaxy itself is?

25

easy way to edit your units caps, and if you find that the maps are to small you make one your self
there enough tools out there
