"Hey, we totally saved your bacon back there. Mind helping us out?" "Nah, we have poo poo to do. Later, taters!" *warps out* The other Kiith can be such DICKS.

Superstring posted:Dust Wars was supposed to be HW2 straight up. Apparently it was supposed to involve fighting against a corrupt Hiigaran empire and have gameplay focused around fighting in and building on megaliths, like the one in the background of the Kharos Graveyard. Whether they ran out of funding or they couldn't get the tech to work right, they had to abandon the concept relatively late in the development cycle. I would still love to play the Dust Wars seen in this trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnvEFFCjSCw Even with the out-of-character explosions. Somewhere I had an early script that had mission dialogue from the first one or two missions, I don't even recall where I found it now.

JcDent posted:In all fairness, bionightmare hiveminds account for what, 70-90% of all space artefacts and poo poo? I mean, System Shock 2, Halo, Dead Space, Mass Effect to a certain degree... Plus, like I said, the Exodus encountered: I'm sure the Kadeshi gardeners were just looking for more fuel to power their ridiculously-hungry engines. Still a little surprised they allowed the ambassador's ship to live.

Willie Tomg posted:Ramming frigate aside, though, Somtaaw gets the best frigate entry in the entire series bar none. For reference, in this series the Kadeshi multibeam frigate can solo the HW1 Mothership in about two minutes. That is, if the frigate can keep all its beams on target. Since all Kadeshi multibeam frigates appear to be hammered on booze, this is not always guaranteed. Dammit, I am attempting to play the original Homeworld and it has crashed to desktop like five times on me this evening. It's like the Exiles don't WANT to go home.

Wasn't there a Homeworld mission that was only on the demo disc? I wonder if they've managed to integrate that into the main game...

I love how they decide to scrap the harvesters immediately after they dock. It's as if they are unclean uni-taskers and contact must be minimized.

Gothsheep posted:I'm kind of surprised that never got fixed. It seems like it's just a global variable that needed to be changed. Couldn't have been all that hard. Fixing it might not have been that hard, but distributing a patch like that at that time was a huge pain in the rear end.

John Liver posted:A secret project under the codename "Nomad Moon." Since codewords for projects aren't supposed to have anything to do with what they are, maybe it's just a really efficient way to grow corn? The Beast has no need for crops, though. Does the Dreadnaught get converted by the cruise missiles or does it just take damage like the Destroyers?

Dr. Snark posted:I like to imagine that after Cataclysm, the Somtaaw are perceived as an entire clan of loose cannons: your average Hiigaran will want their badges turned in (metaphorically speaking), but dammit they get results. Godsdammit, Kun-Luun command! You wrecked 26 stations while defending that convoy! The Admiral is crawling up my rear end on this! Turn in your badge, you're flying a desk for a while.

berryjon posted:This Mini-Update brought to you by fine purveyors of explosions everywhere. The command ship is under attack by purple crystals! Thanks so much for doing this LP, it's been really quite a ride. Strange how so much of the concept art at the end has human figures that are never, ever seen.
