Anyone know if it's going to be moddable at all? That would be the icing on a beautifull cake

Yes, they've had a mod team that worked on something called 'Homeworld Complex' involved during development.

I've never paid any attention to the mod scene, but a bit of research and the mod seems really well thought of. Can't be bad!

Sooooon my precious

Can't wait....hope it doesn't take too long for my collector's edition to arrive...

Yeah, not long now

I'm excited and impatient to start playing this.

Totalbiscuit has a decent video of him playing a couple of AI skirmish at different settings. Its quite long, but decent to watch while we wait.

I've got a 670 and will be playing at 1080. Really hope I can make it pretty!!

When i had my 580 i still had the original CD and put it on, i was abled to play it at 1920x1200 with 32xAA and every graphics trick my card could do turned to the max and still flew above 100fps, so i think this version will look great on a 670.

The textures looked horrible through so i'm very much looking forward to this one

Watching someone else play computer games is dull....

I watched all of that!!! Sooner the better!!!

Wow, that looks incredible. Starting to wonder if my system will run it as well as I previously thought now!

Chris [BEANS] · 24 Feb 2015 at 11:41

Any news on whether we can preload....

eggcup · 24 Feb 2015 at 11:51

I'm guessing we have to download it when it's released

That's annoying, was hoping to download it overnight tonight but it'll have to be overnight tomorrow now.

Watched TB play this on twitch the other night and got real nostalgic for it, thinking ill take a peek!

Wucked · 24 Feb 2015 at 12:05

I'm hoping we can get enough OcUK'ers together for some fun multiplayer action. I'm going to set up a teamspeak server for this, if anyone is interested.

Reppyboyo · 24 Feb 2015 at 12:07
