Homeworld: Cataclysm

Game review

Play as the ill-equipped, unsure, and unready Kiith Somtaaw fleet as they journey into the lonely outskirts of the new Homeworld and unwittingly unleash a beast upon the galaxy. Research new abilities for your fledgling armada to tackle the new alien threat, a fearless enemy that is solely interested in reverse engineering anything you throw at it. Watch the thrilling space battle ensue, as both the new and old occupants of the solar system vie for power in this epic conclusion to the Homeworld saga.

Mod review

This mod is fatally flawed and has obviously not been tested very well outside of the authors rig. The "ETG" folder, as far as I can tell, causes an immediate crash to desktop after selecting "skirmish" or "singleplayer." I tried all manner of configurations until simply deleting the modified file folders actually got the game working just fine again.

I've had years of experience with mods and I guess its fair to say that even though I'm running more modern hardware their are always ways to bypass and troubleshoot these sort of things- I even gave it a go on my old 98se machine and Windows XP service pack 3 on another desktop. Same crash. Same collection of folders caused it to misbehave. I saw their was a recent crash fix and tried that as well. Same error. Not sure what the author is running, but the only thing I can possibly think is that *MAYBE* just maybe they need to consider another crash fix. Otherwise I used to run very old mods for Homeworld in my spare time years ago- and I still had Windows 7 x64- and they still all worked.

Mod review

This is unbelievable. You guys finally made this game not broken. It seemed like after Opposing front came out their was nothing but broken combat- this finally fixed it. The new Wehrmacht is simply fantastic. The balance of each unit feels more fluid in combat and even the tanks feel more realistic. Armour is much easier to lose which makes them not seem like impossible targets early game and late combat is terrifying with the additional units available on both sides. I was almost waiting for a re-tweaking mod like this, as I've never bought anything past the original company of heroes (which always felt the most balanced just before the patches for Tales of Valor and Opposing front. Thank you for making this wonderful mod. Its breathed life into my stale experiences and now its a lot more interesting to just play.
