Homeworld Deserts of Kharak

Ah, shipbreakers.

At least gearbox was nice enough to give them the name and IP rights.

lets make this a general RTS thread

anyone got the last AoE2 expansion, how is it?

>>322924739
Let's not.

I guess this this means a proper Homeworld 3 is probably at least a year in the making

>proper

Unless Blackbird Interactive is making it, I dont have much faith. Would much rather let it lie in the RTS graveyard than see it done by Gearbox.

>>322925954
We don't even know of they have the chops to do anything good yet

Shipbreakers was initially going to be a free to play facebook MMO I have to remind

I'll keep an open mind and approach this with careful optimism. I wonder it it'll have basebuilding or it'll just be Homeworld 2.5D: Ground Control Bloogaloo

I guess we'll find out in a week.

I think the game looks great and the setting is perfect. I'll carefully wait for release reviews before checking it out though, I was disappointed as fuck by the HW remaster.

>Gearbox

Nah, fuck this. If I wanted to be submerged in unfunny shit and memes, I'd got to reddit.

>>322926910
Disappointed how?

Trailer suggests it doesn't, and you're just controlling a landship carrier that builds your units - with missions/story structure patterned the same way as in the original Homeworlds. They are relying too much on the nostalgia factor to try changing the formula in any way.

Fuckin Unity. I still can't decide if that looks horribly bad in technical sense or decent for the budget they had to work with. It's like both at the same time.

>Homeworld without spaceships
>2D RTS


Pass.

Is Homeworld Remastered easy to run? I'm stuck with a shitty laptop for a month or two and really want to play it.

You do know there's a difference between developers and publishers right?

>>322926567
That fukcing awful artstyle. It's nothing like Homeworld - it's an uninspired attempt at mixing our current technology with colorful surfaces Homeworld was known for.
It's probably going to suck anyways - a failed attempt at a franchise cash grab from people who had nothing to offer the genre.

you can say "fucking" here, we wont tell your mom.

I'm more interested on when this big patch for homeworld remastered is coming since they only said they are working on one and it's nearly done but that was a long time ago and they ignore any requests for patch notes and what not.
