Homeworld & Homeworld 2 HD remakes in the works

Preload's done me no favours really, still saying it'll take 3 hours to download the rest and if I let it do that the internet's basically unusable for anything else anyway.

Shame, will have to leave it overnight and come back to it tomorrow afternoon.
 
Even the tutorial is broken; instead of waiting for you to "click OK to continue" she just keeps talking. Also noticed that ships momentarily flash into view before they actually hyperspace jump in, and there are all sorts of tiny UI niggles and inconsistencies too.

I still haven't started playing this properly yet, but after playing the HW1 tutorial and reading comments on forums, I think I'll give it a while for them to patch some of the issues first. Maybe it's not as bad as some are making out, but it does sound like some relatively annoying bugs and design decisions have been made so hopefully they're listening to feedback.

While I loved the original release, this 'remastered' version is just a pain with so many obvious issues.

I'll come back to it in a few months when the issues have been corrected but I won't be buying another Gearbox release.

I'm quite disappointed too, after all the talk of it being "a labour of love" to them I really didn't expect it to be released in this sort of state. After tomorrow I'm off for two weeks until I start my new job so I was really looking forward to spending some real time with it but I'm just not sure it's worth it yet.
 
Anyone tried it with the new update? I didn't actually ever get round to playing it last year and then decided to wait until they fixed the issues people were talking about.
