The_Frag_Man posted:Are you making GBS threads on Cataclysm, which is one of my favourite games, or is Deserts of Kharak totally amazing? The exact kind of nerds you would expect hate Kharak because it's different and it's not a 3D space RTS but it's actually very, very good.

He's on it, yeah. Turanic Raiders is probably my most listened to song of all time.

The Fig thing feels a little scummy because of the already funded thing so it's basically "We know nerds are gullible morons for nostalgia, give us your money."

Slashrat posted:A greater durability and range disparity between ship roles might make the 3D-playspace more meaningful. Lemme just "well actually" from half court here: Heavy corvette walls supported by Support Frigates was the actual be all end all of strike fighter and frigate combat but that's hot hot multiplayer tactics and I've never actually tried it in the campaign, but presumably it works just as well. It can even chew up a missile destroyer without too much trouble.

Rhjamiz posted:Am I misremembering or wasn't there a stance in Homeworld 1 that had strikecraft automatically retreat to a support ship to repair when they got low on health? Maybe? There was definitely a command that issued that order, go to the nearest carrier/support frig/mothership. You wanted to have the support frigates flying behind the corvette wall to heal it as it fought, in that particular strategy, so it wasn't necessary.

Hopefully the inclusion of 'terrain' means the inclusion of huge fuckoff laser cannons to block with said terrain.

You were probably told a wrong version of the right story, which is that the Homeworld 2 that exists and the Homeworld 2 that was planned are vastly different things and Homeworld 2 was, while not massively slapdash, definitely a shortened effort.

Lmao, loving Gearbox jesus christ. https://www.pcgamer.com/gearbox-acquisition-kills-homeworld-3-fig-investments/ Apparently anyone who backed at investiture levels on Homeworld 3 can go gently caress themselves and get nothing. I still think investing in Fig on an actual meaningful amount of money level is a very dumb thing to do but what a terrible way to handle things. E: The game is still totally happening, to be clear, it's just dumb business bullshit and loving people over.

The Cata dreadnaught is still one of my favorite sci-fi designs ever even if it's extremely simple in the end.

For the rest of the series it's the Taiidan destroyer from 1, for me. Looks cool as hell, like an animal.

Rhjamiz posted:Yeah no one lost any money on this so while kinda lovely-looking it's not exactly a huge scandal or anything. Nobody lost any money and it's not a huge scandal but it's hyper greedy move #5,000 by Gearbox who already just sucks a ton.

They're being extremely slow about revealing anything, but also to be fair I was under the impression that the game was just coming out of pre-vis when they announced it. It's gonna be a solid 'nother year or two.

HallelujahLee posted:werent the starship breakers and dok very well received though i guess i dont know sales wise how much they made They were both well received but they’re both very niche games to begin with. RTS and… whatever the gently caress Shipbreakers could fall under, which pretty well makes it niche either way.

The given reason at least is that their engine was coming apart at the seams trying to do more complex or larger ships. Which given how that game can go occasionally when you hit the wrong fuel line or something isn’t that far fetched.

Can't be worse than 2! I dunno, Blackbird seems to have some good chops, I'm not entirely without hope but I'm definitely not as jazzed as I once was.
