OS Neutral Homeworld Remastered Collection (Steam)

It's out, I leaped and it's as good as I remember it, although it's a repeat for me! No Mac version.

Update: Mac Version Planned...

Thanks for pointing that out! I changed the prefix of this thread to reflect OS neutral.

I popped in to post I'll be holding out for if and when there's a Mac version. I guess there's hope there will be. My bet is on Aspyr for this who made mention of classics for this year and their recent work on Gearbox games. We shall see!

Already bought the PC version, as Homeworld 1 was one of the greatest games of all time. The Mac version that would allow me to not reboot to Windows will just be gravy on the cake. The remastered versions are really well done.

2025- Desperate for some good space, restarted HW1 (remastered), I had forgotten how tough the first big battle is in the Great Wastelands. There are elements you must address, kill the enemy harvesters, knock out the probes probing your forces, hold back your attack bombers until you sic them on capital ships. Number one is focus fire on individual capital ships and frigates.

Well before that you have a situation where Cyril pods are being attacked by enemy ships. You are tasked with saving as many pods (your people) as possible by killing the enemy, but also to capture an enemy ship. You have to wait for the last minute to send in the salvagers to nab an enemy ship or the salvagers will get annihilated.

I tried playing it awhile ago but kept getting a bug in the 3rd mission or so, read that a lot of people had the same problem and just refunded. I guess that's not been a problem for you?

I’m confused. Is this separate from the Remastered Collection?

Do you remember what the bug was you experienced?
If Return to Kharak, that was a tricky mission that I referenced in my post, saving the cryo trays and capturing an enemy ship so it can be researched.

Part of the remastered collection. I edited the thread title to make that more clear.

I don't really. I know it was an early mission. It was a bug where I completed the objectives, but then the mission would like fail to register that the objectives were completed and just stall - the game didn't crash to desktop it just sat there. When I looked online I found others with the same issue and some even claiming the bug was in the original game (which I thought was odd for a remaster).

Sorry to hear that. 😐
