great song. i like listening to stuff like this but i have no clue what it's called. it's like middle eastern with hints of ambient/techno? i have no clue can someone help me? whenever i hear stuff like this in soundtracks i try to look for a certain genre but can't pinpoint it
games don't have good soundtracks anymore... A good soundtrack to a game reveals just how much the producers worked for the game. It's a pinch of soul in the game. I can't remember games with good soundtracks except hw, half life and thief.
Such an AWESOME game! I dont usualy play strategy games i am more of an fps guy but this was a masterpiece. Too bad there is not gonna be a third one.
@blahbutt23 yeah i think you might be right there, i bloody hope so the homeworld series is the best series of games ive ever played, and i will remember them always, i think they should do an online one next in the style of the x games or eve, it would kinda makes sense with the hyperspace gate network being found at the end of homeworld 2, think how awsome it would be.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What they did to Homeworld 2 was inexcusable. In order to reach a deadline they essentially raped the saga and turned the campaign into an incoherent pile of rubbish. This is why hard-core gamers should be the people making decisions not some suits that only care about dollars and cents. The game would have made just as much if not more money if they had given it time to be a game worthy of its predecessor's name. Graphics were great, everything else suffered. Same as KOTOR 2. Shameful.
I have to agree. The Keeper always seemed like a terrible beast that was beyond you. You couldn't kill it, only try to defend yourself and survive. It was a testament to the power of the Progenitors and a fearsome foe that would always wreck my fleet pretty badly.
The Rescue/Assault on the space station nearing the end was even more difficult though; I never did beat that mission because you're outnumbered about 5-to-1.
The trick to that one is to build turrets pulsars and ions and try to maintain a full unit of cap ships and stay in a pocket around the mother ship and the rest of the producers. Take the enemy cap ships first and try prayer.
lol it was exiting from hyperspace 6 destroyers quickly made him go back in hyperspace and all that happened until i overcharged that thing and made him never hiperspace again....
for all of you who actually have Homewrld2, we should start playing the online part on game spy, just choose multiplayer, and choose game spy! Cause I feel like I'm the only one who plays it still! Come on all you HW2 fans, lets get this game in business again! If relic gets the message that the HW series is popular again, they might actually start making Homeworld 3!
tht wuld be so awsome!!!! but i doubt ppl would be able to handle it with todays graphics and detail etc, just look at empire total war, i got a good pc and it struggles with tht on large scales
when ever the keeper came out of hyperspace, i had so many ships, once it was finished coming out, it would immediately go back into hyperspace, lol, seriously, i was preparing for the next mission and so i hadn't put the last switch in yet, so all my ships were in aggressive, so they would all start bombarding the keeper, i couldn't even see it, and when i zoomed in, it would cause mayjor lagg! lol
Best game series ever made together with Half Life. Although this is more than a game! The story is just as epic as the game and music! Too bad HW 2 doesn't work on Windauz Vista.
i love the music style in the homeworld games... i think it conveys a greater sense of loneliness and danger than the bomming battle orchestras of other games
this game is so awesome.. but it realy sucks now that there are like no players online anymore, i never saw more then 50pll at once online even just after its release, shame for the game.. i hope they will make a homeworld3 and make it great!!
OMG! I love this game's soundtrack, specially this one. I still play agains the cpu, but this track wont play =S. Anyone know how to speed up the game? Cause it takes a little bit to take off. LOL @ "money, money, money"
Probably my favorite track out of all the music in Homeworld 2. The vocals really give it a... mystical and regal feel, fitting for the indestructible Keeper of the Dreadnought.
I heard this music when I was capturing the Dreadnaught. Not so hard though, but yes, the keepers' beams can shoot so long that it easily wipes out 1 destroyer!!
I'm a veteran of Homeworld, belonged to the great Warclan 666. =) I put up the three battle songs from homeworld 1, as a personal tribute to one of my all time favorite games.
those people who makes those pics for HW 2 is very good they really know what they are doing. i wonder what programme they are using or do they do those by hand?
They are legal. The torrents are usually extracted from the game it's self. I forgot the name of the extracter though. It makes it easy that way, rather than everybody extracting as some don't know what they're doing. (Like me, I fucked up with it.)
i remember the first time i heard an enemy battle cruisers hull buckle... just before it exploded and illuminated the entire screen. was so epic.
