Computer Gaming / Re: Homeworld 3 Trailer

I'm really enjoying the campaign so far. It has that Homeworld immersive feel and they have nailed the aesthetic and sounds of the original titles. Story is good and the combat is fun.

No regerts here yet.

Thanks guys!  High praise indeed.  Jarhead polished it up a bit, took out the worst jokes and added some flair compared to the original guide.  I've learned some pointers. 

If anyone has any questions, comments or just want to ask why the hell I did something, please ask away.

I've been hearing about the build up for a couple weeks.  Interesting, cause this is one where Ukraine won't just give ground.

A brand new social version called a multiplayer engine upgrade that allows coop play? :)

An AI that no longer follows a random choice of 3 predetermined paths?

I'd love for combat mission coop. It can't be that hard, if you can connect for pvp, how hard can it be to have two players on the same side against AI ?  This is why I love and hate battlefront.

The irony is, of course, that he said he didn't want to throw any premature announcements out there, because they would raise unreasonable expectations in the community, and yet he did and now there are

Hilariously enough, as I recall, the whole "no more premature announcements" thing was because they announced release months and then missed them without any notice multiple times in a row.  Apparently putting out a "Hey, we're gonna need to delay this" sometime during the month when it becomes clear you won't hit the deadline is just too much to manage.

Space Lobsters?

Years ago, back in the days of CM Shock Force 1 I believe, BF Steve (I believe), with the usual acerbic stabs at the CM fanbase, started saying something like the next game would be 'CM in space' with "Space Lobsters." At first, nobody was sure if it was a joke or not.
