Yes, it is the sequal to the Game of the Year Homeworld. It is a real-time space strategy game.

Fighting is terrible, but not as terrible as losing the will to fight.

I was just playing around, Cain, your alright. :wink: How is Homeworld 2 compared to Rebellion in terms of gameplay and functionality? I am sure the graphics are much better giving it's new(ness). :wink:

 

Might have to pick it up if it's any count. :)

It's more tactical, less of the mouse-clicking and more worrying about how best to quash the enemy fleet :)

 

I think its very much what the tactical mode of Rebellion could have been... with better controls and graphics.

So what is the point to the game? Are their planets like in Rebellion or is it just big space battles? And is it in real time or turn-based?

It's to destroy the enemy fleet, what else? :)

 

No planets (only as background), just space. And it is real-time.

 

Trust me, you'll love the game. Get Homeworld 1 and play it, and then get Homeworld 2 and play it.

Is Cataclysm a mod or a purchasable product?

Cataclysm is a fully playable game with its own storyline etc. Its like Homeworld 1 and a half :P.

 

Right, but what I want to know is if you have to buy it or download it.

it is downloadable. illegaly of course.

it is like another homeworld game. i only have the original homeworld. my CPU is too crappy to handel H2. star wars mods are great for HW games. especially love it when 5 ISDs go up against a smaller force.

their full braodsides are absoulutly beautiful :cry:
