Dreadnought in Action

[poopoopanties]

IMA FIRIN MAH LAZORS

[50LightSabersInAPack]

Probably one of the best scenes in the game.

[LunkvanTrunk]

fuck was homeworld great

[ImperialEarthEmpire]

they said the dreadnought was not intended for battle it purpose only as the gatekeeper of sajuuk... i wonder what kind of ships used by progenitors in battles if their non-combat ships kick-ass like that...

[Heydshaut]

Yeah... PARTIAL CONTROL has been established. Tell us when you establish FULL control.

[amitakartok]

@Heydshaut

Once the Bentusi fully repair it, I think? Then again, it's unlikely the Progenitors equip their Keepers with shields but not the dreadnoughts.

[u45uify]

that phased cannon array is a beastly weapon i hope wen/if they makin a HW3 the hiigarans get to use that tech agenst there foe cuz that wep is beast.....but sajuuks array is PWN!!

[Trollingwithmyhomies]

pshh this isn't warhammer 40k =/ gonna spam flag this false text

[merdaporrenta]

Damn! Polishop Laser.

[kensoh1997]

IM FIRING MA LAZER WAAAAAAAAAAlmmmnnnnn ??? Crap it broke :(

[Zardul]

They must have really messed up the cannon. Whenever I tried to take down a battlecruiser with it, the Dreadnought would get pwned. -_-;

[TheHinsonator]

wait isnt that a battlecruser?

[norad01]

@TheHinsonator Its classified as a Dreadnaught, only useable in single-player...unless you have a mod for the game.

[guyincorner]

@TheHinsonator a dreadnaught is a class of ship BIGGER than battlecruisers

[nainladed101]

@guyincorner

the gatekeeper of sajuuk is like a primadonna.. great girl to have around is sexy as hell and is awesome in bed but will cost you a hell lot of money in maintenance and will always bitch about her Phased Cannon Array needing repairs

the keeper on the other hand is Colonel John Matrix... will commando through your fleet unscratched and go fuck your mother....ship in the ass before vanishing leaving it's annoying drones behind

and also.. can eat your ENTIRE FLEET for breakfast

[tjguzik68]

I spend over 300 hours on Homeworld

pure magnifica

[goliathlup1]

This game is a freaking legend. The whole storyline and music are awesome. I hope that thing with the copyrights gets solved and somebody makes a third one soon.

[avengerizer16]

@goliathlup1 actually it is solved...THQ bought back the license of homeworld from sierra ent. Since THQ owns relic ent. now there has been rumours that hw3 is in close doors development...but we cant be too sure..but if its real it might take like2-3 years b4 it comes out.

[goliathlup1]

@avengerizer16 I dont think they would have bought it just to sit on it. Its better if they take their time they have a very high standard to uphold.

[MrLOLasuarus]

Ok im confused what game is this???

[Jeff55369]

@MrLOLasuarus Perhaps reading the video info might give you a clue? Just a thought, :P

[MrLOLasuarus]

@Jeff55369 It still dont tell me what the actually game is called all i know it is something about Homeworld 2 and its a ship called Dreadnought.

I thought it was about a dreadnought war Robot out of dawn of war not a space ship out of what ever this game is called

[Jeff55369]

@MrLOLasuarus "..during the Homeworld 2 campaign..." This should tell you the game is called "Homeworld 2."

[SuperHaloStarwarsFan]

Poor tactics on the Vaygr's part, sending their Battlecruiser directly down the barrel of a Dreadnought. If this were real, and the captain survived, I would've killed his ass.

[Jeff55369]

@SuperHaloStarwarsFan

"You have failed me for the last time!"

"ack!" *cough cough*

:P

[routhoula]

i can hear mckane shouting "you overloaded the zpm you idiot"

[ibnakhal]

its a vagyr battlecruiser...

[Jacen436987]

things bad ass in the campaign

[marrlock]

What's homeworld 2??... Looks interesting

[TheRealhalohunter]

@marrlock What!?! How could you Not Know?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! It is the best game EVER! (yes... better than HL-2) What it is, its a 3D space RTS game that should be played by little kids! (my sister beat it... she's 6 years old)

[marrlock]

@TheRealhalohunter

Umm... I probably don't know cus I havn't been into RTS games for long. I started out with the original starcraft, then moved to LOTR BFME, then Halo Wars (Halo series FTW), and SC2... Also Civ.... Never heard of Homeworld before though...

[TheRealhalohunter]

@marrlock Just giving you a hard time my man. >:P

[knifelover78910]

@TheRealhalohunter yeh Dx it is so hard i could never pass the whole game, i just always got too overwhelmed and ended up selling it along with 200 games as a big pack for someone on ebay. NOW I WANT IT BACK... i miss all the games i sold lol! ;(

[TheRealhalohunter]

@knifelover78910 Im stuck on.. 14? i think! I get MALLED by 35 destroyers, 10 Battle Cruser and a &%*# Ton of Frigs!

[knifelover78910]

@TheRealhalohunter i found it hard enough defeating a medium AI in skirmish mode without being nearly instantly rushed with destroyers too :| guess it was not my game... still enjoyed it though

[gelatinousturncoat]

"This is Fleet Command to Dreadnaught: This is why we can't have nice things! Can't you take care of ONE goddamn superweapon? You're definitely not getting a puppy this year for Christmas."

[0nkelD0kt0r]

maybe relic is on work for hw3 by now. as far as i know they have no main project at the moment just coh online.

[SpartonDan]

what game is this?

[Homeworld5000]

Like so much this part!

[Homeworld5000]

Like so much this part! :Q

[lopatnik]

To bad the in-game dread lacks the full auto AA turrets firing like from Battlestar Galactica. And on the funny side those rockets fired from the Battlecruiser will hit the dread after a few seconds after starting the mission. Always maked me laught how in order to get a nice action shot the vaygr decided to fire those rocket like some submarine.

[Apollo11222]

@lopatnik no but a bust from one of the AA turrets on the Dread will still kill a FT or Bomber :) in one burst

[brian0714]

this animation style reminds me of some of the scenes in "beast wars"

oh...nostalgia time.

[ajom010k]

ok barry, i know its your first day on the job but there are a few things you should know about operating a dreadnought cannon, most important of all the things is never press the big red button while fireing the cannon...

dreadnought: cannon array offline, cannon array offline...

barry...your fired

[AirWaterLandBuffalo]

LOL SPAM TROLL

[Tachonaut]

HW 2 was always good for the big final clash...

Awesome graphics, which are quite timeless to me, because they always look great.

Comparing Eve with HW or the vice versa is like saying "I like bananas, but I enjoy bike riding more!" -.-

[SuperboyConnerKent]

that one shot one kill would have come in handy on Thaddis Sabbah

[urghurghurgh]

Got to laugh at these EVE players who compare RTS's to EVE(Even though they are probably bad trolls). Homeworld and EVE have little in common as far as gameplay and style goes.

Both are excellent games, and you don't need to bash great and classic games like Homeworld to make your e-peen feel bigger for playing a better game.

For the video, "Holy shit! Vaygr battlecruiser destroyed?! That fast?!" Sums it up pretty well.

[TheCrankyCow]

@urghurghurgh yea there trolls most eve players respect Homeworld

[Jayvaughan08]

@urghurghurgh yea, TheCrankyCow is right. A lot of Eve players respect HW2. There are still a lot of Eve players waiting for the HW2 eve mod completion yet sadly I don't think it will ever be completed.

[pspfan68]

jesus and i though battle cruisers where big this things huge and alot more powerfull

[Lagmaster56]

Homeworld 1 and 2 are awesome games. I've played them multiple times and have enjoyed them immensely. Not so much for Cataclysm.

[nicky6shit]

how do u get homworld because i downloaded it and i needed a code so do i go to eb games or game cause it looks cool

[AirWaterLandBuffalo]

You could, you know, actually buy the game rather than pirating it?

[jcgamer892]

played eve and i hate to say it, but it's just like Wow only in space.

Homeworld 1 & 2 fun games. have never completed either of the campaines (lost the serial code to homeworld 1 and never really gotten into homeworld 2), but i keep seeing vids like this and making me want to complete hw 2 campaine. (sorry for any bad spelling)

[juicifer]

eve is WoW in space? Clearly u have never played the game eve...

Its almost the EXACT opposite...

[Helge129]

I hate to say that you didn't play EVE then. You probably put it on, went mining and decided that it is just like WoW. While the gameplay of both is completely different, and so is their setting.

[GoombaDaddy]

the campaign is fun, but some levels are FRUSTRATING. it can be very difficult, but it's worth it. the last 2 missions are fun

[Talyn81]

@GoombaDaddy I agree with you on that one. The only level I have the most trouble is the one where you have to rescue Captain Soban from the Vaygr, I have to deal with so many Vaygr battle cruisers.

[NAUCampusDining]

@Talyn81 yes that was one tough. i found the arrival of the movers mission to be kinda hard too. the last mission was actually quite easy, although still quite suspenseful!

[Helge129]

In that case, you lie. because You haven't played EVE if you think that. WoW and EVE are quite much the opposite.

[WonkeyWarthogWheel]

If this is in space why does the smoke go up? it should go out the way it came out and keep going that way

[rfry]

This was actually discussed in other games, many people are not familier with what smoke looks like in space.

[Lordpeppe]

Uh maybe I should buy homeworld and begin to play. Reminded me of once I tried it and it was cool. What do you all say?

[halffliffe]

Dreadnought kickin the shit out of a vaygr flleet, this was the counter attck mission, lots of angry ships

[braetar]

What is this from?

[founder3]

Homeworld 2, read the description before posting questions :)

[ForceUnleased08]

well der home word 2

[EBTcraft15]

Ummm...why do you say that?

[DeuceVexxHara]

Dreadnought FTW!!!!

[ThisScreen4Rent]

ya, this is definately not EVE. lol

[pfaffgod]

Of course this isn't EVE, it's much better.

[ThunderWindz]

eve own all

[PolArbezcukru]

it's not better.... it's DIFFRENT!!!

[Mattisbehindyou]

better than eve? hah!

[AsianManZan]

In every single way Eve Online is better tha this poorly pieced together shit, its old and hasnt been updated, the graphics suck, horible campaign, so i guess that sums it all up ehhh?

[Ghostwind1]

Obvious troll is obvious.

[amitakartok]

does someone has a vid from the Archangel dreadnought (the curved ship with brutal firepower) from cataclysm?

[dokaw]

Someone uploaded videos of pretty much 2/3 of the Cataclysm campaign....maybe you can find it in there somewhere?

[rainbowsixisgood]

my brother finished homeworld 2

i played with sajuuk and the dreadnoughts

and i cant finish mission 3

how odd

[Livingforpace]

I remeber this mission and it was pretty hard to me

[MKllDark4ngel]

dreadnought is a common name for a ship but u need to say this isnt warhammer 40k bcoz i thought it was a 40k dreadnought

[tezzquill]

me too....how exciting i thought it was bjorn of the fallen-hand itself, MKllDark4Angel

[MKllDark4ngel]

sorry?, i dont understand what you mean

[tezzquill]

Bjorn the fell-handed is the oldest dreadnought (from Warhammer) in service ever....he seen the Emperor during the Emperor's living days...after the Emperor was inserted into the golden throne, Bjorn got wounded and as a fallen hero was inserted into a body of a Venerable Dreadnought...

[cmpunk529]

i thought a dreadnought was some kind of giant robot

[Asiancomedian]

Dreadnought is a kind of ship

[halffliffe]

I notice in this game the frigates always get hit first and hit hardest. the first thin to be destroyed are the frigates

[DuellyO]

wot u building a whole army of marine frigates or something, they always targeted first! mainly the problem is that all frigates break so easyly, u hit them once with the vagra battle crusier death ray and they explode..

[ChaplainVarnus555]

lol someguy: look guys all those sparks and stuff burnt my toast...Sniff...

[cookiehead2]

Fleet Command to Dreadnought: "Way to go guys, you broke it."

[GoombaDaddy]

lol!!

[lungustefan2]

@cookiehead2

best comment ever ;)

funny joke,but that would broke the epicness of the game if it was ingame :)

[abisff]

homeword is a awesome game to well is little sayed but is more than warhammer ...

[Wishazu]

of course it has nothing to do with warhammer 40k, this is from Homeworld 2 a 3d space RTS :)

[mixmunkidan]

What on macragge?

[DeltaSniping]

The Great Devouerer is coming...

[MorteWulfe]

Tyranids?

[minborox]

no reference to warhammer 40k at all

[MorteWulfe]

That's what they call the Tyranids though, the Great Devourer. Is that another thing that Games Workshop has ripped off?

[snylekkie]

Yep.

[AirWaterLandBuffalo]

What do Tyranids have to do with this vid?

[photon101203]

lol guys the drednoguht looks like a pistol from a sede view chek it out XD.

dednought commander:redy to fire and.....

some guy:hey is this the toaster?....*pressed button* dednought commander: noooooo.....

*main cannon array is offline*

dednought commander:-.-'

[Bloodraven678]

fuck the dreadnaught,sajuuk has more firepower!

[Burkle]

lol, you can just imagine the Vaygr Cruiser captain going "aw shit!" as he gets nailed by the beam. Great job.

[OldAndCranky]

Nothing whups Vaygr ass quite like the phased cannon array... good job!

[Fleetleader642]

They should all be destroyed!!

[deathmaster4life]

u can also do it off the pirate smod

[Marine9]

Yeah :D Good thing you say If you guys wana to play progenitor race so badly then download my mod ''The age of the progenitor'' in ''WWW.Moddb.com'' ok?

[llihnroht]

I'd like to fly the Sajuk Kar around in real life. =P

[garthisle]

That is cool where can you get the mods at I think I want to play this game again XD

[comanderBETHA]

over power the cannon?

nice i love that ship (a)

[kopyr]

" if only it did that in the game"

lol it does do that in the game ....

[abchk2010]

He means that the Dreadnaught only did this at the begining of mission9, normally it is very weak!

First: The Defence Gun couldn't fire so fast

Second: THe Phased Cannon Array only do 25000 points damage, how can it destroy a battlecruiser in a single shot?

[magnus1114]

Because after firing it that time, they damaged the hell out of the systems. the bentusi repairs managed to get the weapons back online, but didn't fix the underlying problem. If you took the time to steal makaan's dreadnought, that one works like in the cutscene.

[captainsoban]

cept, you can only do that in mods, in the original game you can only disable it, not capture it.... i prolly shouldnt hit the post button cause i just noticed the date on your comment..... but eh.

[norad01]

it "was" a Vaygr Battlecruiser

[ibnakhal]

@norad01 no its a vagyr dreadnought

[SNoRRo]

lol poor higaaran battle cruiser

[RanaRandom]

If you want to try out the Dreadnaught, you need to download Homeworld 2 Classic mod. It adds a new playable race.

[LordOfTheWolves7]

if only it did that in the game

[Bulgaria]

A lot better is the Sajuk Kar :) =) lol :D 2 times more powerfull dude ;p.Nice video!

[pfaffgod]

Ahh the good ol' Dreadnaught.

[Sikknote]

Ooooh I want me one of those...! The Higaaran Battlecruiser is cool enough..that thing is mad.
