Judging the pictures on Amazon, I would say that it isn’t a hub. It’s just a really, REALLY nice desk ornament.
I’ve got an idea. Lights start to flicker when your ingame mothership receives damage and even more when it gets critical damage.
That would be cool.
UK and EU pre-orders now (Since Tuesday) available on Amazon. I got mine
We are nearing the release date! Can’t wait to load this puppy up!
Surprise, surprise, the ‘release’ date was pushed back until next christmas. They say that this is only a ‘placeholder’ date, and the date might actually be considerable closer. Or farther.
The ‘release’ date was always a place holder. As far as I am aware no actual release date has ever been announced. It’s just an Amazon pre-order technicality.
I know, but STILL, its yet another game on my list that has a ‘release date’ that keeps getting pushed back. Wait, maybe this is all an elaborate long-con designed just for me…
I pre-ordered the EU one from amazon uk when it first became available, then recently I discovered there was also a separate listing for a UK version, so I ordered that one as well… you know… just to be safe.

I’m really looking forward to playing this.
BIG NEWS!!!
#THE RELEASE DATE IS SET!!!
#FEBRUARY 25!!!
It’s even on steam:
#YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!
After taking the time to calmly deliberate about this, I think the most honest, rational answer is:
Squeeeeeeeeeee
(I’m still miffed about the loss of Cataclysm, though)
I haven’t been following what happened with Cataclysm, did they not get the rights to that?
No, they didn’t.
As it turns out, Cataclysm, although part of the Homeworld franchise (although still debated to be canon), was produced by another developer. Although Sierra did have a part in development, as a result Cataclysm wasn’t part of the sale.
Cataclysm was my introduction to Homeworld. I loved it.
I skipped Cataclysm and went straight to HW2. I managed to find a box copy a while ago, though, and I made it about 1/3 through the campaign. However, I was suffering from severe performance issues with it, eventually making the game unplayable. Which is odd, because HW1 plays without a hitch on my same machine.
I heard the source code for Cataclysm was also lost. But that only means it would be harder to remaster.
25 days until release!
