You can steal the taidani heavy cruiser at the end of the mission. It is a bloody fight, but it is kind of fun to have a big battleship so early in the campaign. Just mind beast beam and infection missiles, or else 💀 ... You can get some taidan destroyers (safer choice beacause non infectable by the beast) too if you raise the alarm, but this is going to be very painful, you'll have to deal with the whole garrison.

"What's going on down there' Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I dunno I'll check. *screams of the damned* Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I dunno.

The real ones remember this because it played so much on multiplayer maps. Endless hours of it being drilled into my brain. Annoying high pitch keeping the house awake at night (oops) I have a lot of nostalgia for playing this game online. Trying to line up perfect Siege shots, Mimic bombing crystals just as a Command Ship lazily drifts through, me failing to play as the Beast properly, having people try and fail yet again to make EMP work on me, and playing King and Fools which was the closest thing we ever got to a custom map. I don't miss dial-up! Or the constant crashes this unstable piece of software suffered from!

i don't know how they managed it, but even the song sounds zombified

- They come. Good.

- We arrive to secure one prize and find two instead! Attention Hiigaran vessels! You are hopelessly outmatched. Surrender your vessels now and prepare to be boarded.

I'd like to remind everyone that Paul has the Masters for the soundtrack but it is up to Gearbox to let him release it, please express interest in seeing that happen, guys.

I love the fact that all of the Beast we see is just a few fleets. Imagine the horror if it ever devoured a planet...

It's a story that could've lasted an eternity as every race fights down to their last to avoid extinction from something that comprises all of them.

Me whenever I hear the word signal:

Love the electronic core of cataclysm music, this seems to have been tilted towards more ethnic music in hw2 and hw3. Makes sense though

Time will tell if the fandom will treat Cataclysm/Emergence as the definitive final game in the Homeworld chronology or not, with 2 being neatly skipped and Deserts of Kharak being a fine prequel that should also be a fitting last game in production order.

Somtaaw Fleet Command: "I'm sure they'll forget to thank us later." Worker pilot: "You got that right."

Just "Hiigara", not "Deep Space", man.

Awww nuts, now it's birb flu

This game nails the atmosphere, better than any other in the series. Even the graphics looks good, after tinkering with some stuff in Regedit. :)

The theme of calm and reasonable people.

This was probably my favorite track of the whole Homeworld series. The environment of the mission it plays in is what makes it so great. The music is haunting, but at the same time oddly peaceful. It's mesmerizing against the sky-blue nebula covering the background.

WE ARE AVENGING THE IMMORTAL EMPEROR WITH THIS ONE 🗣️💥🔥

Hey there, I've always loved this piece of music so I made a slightly extended version, here if anyone is interested: th-cam.com/video/e-OT7SHfy7I/w-d-xo.html Just a simple blended loop but it does the trick :)

The beginning of this track feels like someone groggily waking up from a dream filled with nightmares... except the nightmare won't end.

Oh god, there is a pilot's comments at 19 seconds in. "what's that?"

ok hear me out, what if we link 2 dreadnoughts together

When you think that all of this could have been avoided if the Turanic raiders didn't have brain cells numbering in the single digits.

Nothing sucked you into the reality of the universe you were in faster than this track.

when level 100 goes back to level 1 lobby

0.50 , half life theme

Still creepy. Nice.

Relentless. Incomprehensible. Flooding. Hollowing out.

sound quality of these is awfull

'SOooo ThE MINers aRe now warriors?'

god the voice acting goes probably the hardest this mission

The downtime mission, to really let the happenings of the previous mission sink in.

this track is so sick. Really catches the feel of finally enacting revenge on the beast mothership.

"You Somtaaw have guts, that's all I can say. Good luck, Kuun-Lan. We will spread the word about what you're trying to do. Manaan Fleet Command out."

Ah, that track really gives both the feel of peering over a low bandwidth recording and the feel that you're about to see some heavy shit.

“Hang in there, Republican fleet. This is the Kiith Somtaaw warship Kuun-Lan”.

And I'm basically hearing what is now known as the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare nuke alarm.

Sure was spooky, them not responding.

Still one of the best moments of the series, Shaming the Unbound. HW2 forgetting about it is why I treat that flawed game as apocrypha.

The Taiidan Imperialists sure sound like temper-tantrumed spoiled brats and warmongers when it came to them foolishly helping the Beast as a means to topple the Hiigarans and their Republican counterparts.

Location Unknown? As Filip Ranogajec says in the comments, it sure looks and feels like the Kadeshi Great Nebula.

May the Turanic Raiders be all wiped out in the far future.

As much as the Emergency Hyperspace might irk some, it does actually help a lot when it comes to saving the Faal-Corum in the next mission, assuming your fleet position is timely.

Time to retire those Ramming Frigates.

Entire hangar disabled due to a sabotage. Strange location in the middle of nowhere which resembles something familiar... yet unusual. Enemy ships slowly emerging from within the dust clouds like some dreadful ghosts. So many memories...

You’re all alone in deep space… and something is out there… but you don’t know what.

When you disturb a nest of KILLER BEES!!

Soundtrack which perfectly illustrates a last-ditched attempt at something that no civilized race had dared to do for sixteen years - antagonize an ancient, highly advanced race with unknown powers and superior technology... for the good of the galaxy.

full compliment built just in time. see the wide gape of a claw formation inbound. deploy all fighters and engage in plane formation.
