funny enough.. i gave the AI's separate logos.. all of which were hiigaran,
Me: Foxfire Logo
CPU1: Random logo
CPU2 : PVN Logo
CPU3: GTA Logo
CPU4 : HoL Logo
CPU5: SGC Logo (Stargate)

Funnily enough, i got my arse handed to me by the SGC...

Don't s'pose anyone knows what polycount (roughly) the various ships HW2 has are?  Might buy that game tomorrow - not sure yet.

I thought the demo was merely OK, and I liked HW way more. I figured that was just 'cause I was in a different mindset with HW, but I went and played HW again, and, yep, HW is way better than HW2.

Although the whole fleet badge concept is nice. I'm hoping the  full game will be better than the demo.

EDIT: The average poly count is around 2000 per ship, compared to 200 from the original.

Homeworld IS better than homeworld 2 no doubt.. Its hard to beat the story you had in that or the gameplay. If they had kept homeworld gameplay with Homeworld 2s story it would have been a better game.

I mean lets compare stories.. in Homeworld you new explorers to the stars just spreading your wings when your viciously attacked and your people slaughtered. You slowly learn there is more to your people than you ever realised and struggle to survive.

Homeworld 2. you simply fend off threat after threat agaist your race once again while being forced to go (immidately at a breakneck pace) to solve a mystery of the origin of the hyperspace cores..

Which sounds better to you?


Homeworld =)

Don't you have that in wrong order? Should be vice versa.

[JC128]

No what I meant was if they had kept homeworlds gameplay and used Homeworld 2s story in HW2 it would have been a better game. sorry it wasnt clear

Overall Homeworld 2's gameplay has a much better pace and the interface once you get used to it is actually much better then Homeworld 1's. It's also easier to learn

What is funny is how in this game you have people swearing that a certain unit is useless until they find themselves being beaten by it.

more than two, races would be nice.. (for multi at least..)

Good luck moders. God speed!
