Homeworld 2 Demo!! weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[roXet]

OMG I can't believe I will finally able to get my grubby little hands on this one. Bluesnews has a crapload of download links if anybody else wants it. The demo has 2 multiplayer maps, so providing my POS computer will run it at more than 0.5 FPS I'm gonna want to play against somebody. =)

dude...post some links...i want it too

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

I missed thefirst one... :doh What's this about?

[roXet]

did you get it mercy?

Dirge, it's basicially a RTS in space. You have a mothership and you build your fleet and fight the baddies. Cool thing is you keep your fleet between each mission.

I was playing the demo last night and I found out when you are fighting capital ships you can attack their sub-systems (like their engines, fighter module and resource collection module). It's really sweet. =)

[LA_MERC_Mercy]

your kidding? they added that in? sawweet...

yeah i got but it took all night...the links off bluesnews where getting raped big time...it finished up around 1am this morning..so i will be trying it out some tonite...

we will definetely have to try out the multiplayer...

[LA_MERC_Mercy]

oh how does it play?

[roXet]

in the single player missions it worked pretty ok, but the graphics are horrible, but it's good that they made it that scaleable.
