So this happened, surprising very few people: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2013/09/02/hardware-shipbreakers-is-now-homeworld-shipbreakers/

I wonder if this maybe explains the insane prices they were throwing around, maybe to get the Homeworld IP back for themselves?

ptw for the heck of it

PTW. Is this.. What the hell is this? The webpage gives me no sustenance.

it is not just the dated graphics, which may be voluntary.

1995 3d rts had better atmospheric planes altitude control that 'follow terrain at x altitude fixed'

The alpha video they have up is homeworld-like enough that I am tempted to at least sign up for free. I don't really care about 'oh it looks dated/not as good as it could' if they get the core of it right.

Ok let's see...

Homeworld setting... check.
A bunch of scavengers fighting for spaceship wrecks on a desolate planet.
The premise is interesting.

Graphics... dated but practical. Thay might improve later.

Combat mechanics... pretty much unknown... all i can assume is that fighters don't stay in place when attacking (unlike Starcraft) other than that... nothing.


Well guess there's no other option than just sit and wait.
