Lets Play... Homeworld 3 - Ep 2 - The First Gate Jump

[@ChristopherMocko]

Pro tips not in the tutorials: Some unit abilities can be right clicked to set them on "auto cast." This is useful for bombers with their cloak ability for example. They move slow but invisible, appear, attack, and then ghost away. with a unit selected, Alt Right click to open a contextual menu. This is where you will find retire and scuttle for when you inevitably steal 48 destroyers. Bippity Boppity, keep stealing their property.

[@aurorathearcticwolf4243]

funniest comment ending ive read all year

[@TestName286]

Why would you retire the destroyers, they're are actually better than the ones that you build

[@ChristopherMocko]

End of Mission RUs: 13,349, beginning of next mission RUs... also 13,349. If you don't harvest it in mission, you don't get it.

[@unknown9126]

Yep. Not like in 2 where you got everything when the mission ended.

[@TheMegamaster44]

@@unknown9126remastered got that for 1 as well

[@caseylorenzen2889]

It's so satisfying to steel enemy ships and just be like "this is mine now thank you" and then proceeded to laugh like a gremlin.

[@generalsanis3612]

shack playing space strategy games: good ol classics: literally all the games i play (empire at war, STA3, XCOM, space engineers, DOW, Stellaris) i all got into thanks to you Shack, been here since 2014 (when i was 13, outch) and have loved everything you have doen man, thankyou

[@dasmoools606]

Just watching you yoink the frigates gave me so much nostalgia from HW1 an 2.. lmfao, the fun of just building a fleet of ion frigates. I always imagine them screaming down coms going. "WHY ARENT THEY FIGHTING?! WHY ARE THEY JUST STEALING US ALL THE TIME?!"

[@admiralmolinaro6830]

41:28 “here I thought we were supposed to draw attention to ourselves”

[@diamondq7s124]

The Mother Ship is like a knife going through that ship when leaving the jump!

[@SirButtz]

If Shipbreakers got lisenced DLC for other franchises I would give it all my money

[@wills9482]

Enemy Frigates: We pose a threat to your early game experience! Shack: Hmmm, new toys.

[@jeremydale4548]

Me: Gankinng all 5 of the frigates they sent after me. Now I have new toys to use against the Incarnate fleet. That I didn't have for a while during my first runthrough

[@jeremievigliaturo1317]

When I'm In Command, Every Mission Is A Suicide Mission.

[@TheHawaiianc]

I never knew that about the song chee I learn something new heh I love your style of play shack its soo military lol makes me wonder how you treat your sail boat lol

[@lance7135]

Homeworld 1 had the fuel mechanic. From HW2 on it was discarded, which I always thought was a shame. Fuel concerns made carriers far more useful, especially on larger maps.

[@wingren13]

the game already has the kushan carrier, it was a preorder bonus, you can use it in wargames

[@zombothedemonneko1315]

"Oh is that yours sorry i call space dibs on it so its mine now"

[@laverniustucker8198]

I have been watching since your homeworld star wars mod video

[@jeremydale4548]

In the Kesura Minor mission, I actually ganked all 5 of the frigates they sent after me. Their Cluster Missile ability is SO satisfying

[@dreadwing01]

Cutting it pretty close there captain. Nice video .

[@ThatTinyDude]

SHAAAACK YOU CAN RETIRE SHIPS! hold Alt and then right click on units to open the context menu

[@TheHawaiianc]

He knows you could do it in hw2 lol

[@TestName286]

Never retire ships

[@bioboy1819]

Koth Vortana upgraded from the Gravestone!

[@octavius32a64]

Refueling was hw1 you even had frigates for refuelling

[@ciselkane05]

the funny thing is, Hiigaran's have kith Somtaaw to thank for fixing that little issue by the time of Cataclysm/Emergence. Somtaaw found a source of extremely rare/hard to mine material's in there literal mothership tier mining ship that made collecting that material much easier and possible, then the Bentusi showed up like "Yo, we have a mighty need for that stuff you found, we are willing to trade some sweet sweet tech for it" and among the technology traded was a strike craft/corvette engine type that was so efficient that fuel worries literally stopped being a thing. for the same amount of fuel a scout could go through from launch to tank empty the same scout with the new engine the Somtaaw got from the Bentusi could operate for several *centuries* before emptying the tank. Somtaaw freely distributed the tech to the rest of the Kith of Hiigara and promptly got nothing, not even a "Thank you" for there efforts.

[@DemTacs]

Higaren Proverb of dumbfoundness: "Are figate kidding me?" ;P

[@stuarthawes5322]

You can capture all the missile frigates

[@Lonely_Bearo]

love the gameplay so far

[@SirButtz]

It's not ship theft it's premptive salvage

[@TheFlyWahine]

The way i think understand it is that i think her body and mind merged with the ship so they are not two parts they have merged to become one big unit. And i dont think you can undo that.

[@lightspeedvictory]

I assume this is taking the place of the Imperial playthrough of AOTR for a bit?

[@stilllostwolf8813]

I can't wait for the next part

[@grimreaperkeeperofsouls6990]

Hey shack I don’t know if you know but that battle cruiser looks a lot like the mothership u used to save everyone in Homeworld 2

[@grimreaperkeeperofsouls6990]

So it might be that she was corrupted or something

[@TheFlyWahine]

At 24:52 and i think i know who the big bad of this game is, the one you are trying to "save" the previus capitol ship of the one you fly in this game. THAT might be the big bad of this game. And saving and killing is the same sins you cant keep them ether way so its up to them. But if you can steal and convert them then they are usefull.

[@warhead_beast7661]

wasnt hardspace shipbreaker also done by the same studio (i know sadly no homeworld ships in there)

[@StephMcAlea]

"We need a shipbreaker game..." Nah. We need a Homeworld galactic 4x game AND an official BSG game from the sane studio using the same mechanics and the same composer. Or Bear McCreary. :) And if anyone disagrees? Box the line.

[@ciselkane05]

Barrage Frigate 4/*200* good lord.

[@Rosivok]

i miss space GTA. You should be able to steal everything right from the start.

[@emmanuelampong9388]

Was that battle cruiser not the super shit that defended everyone at the end of home world 2

[@rommelfcc]

🤔🧐🤔 wasn't there sub engines, weapons and drives targeting for Capital class ships?

[@kafaifong4427]

What happens with Awakening of rebellion ?

[@stilllostwolf8813]

Hey XP the playlist for this series is messed up

[@Sentinel-Ai]

People miss large maps not necessary large open ones, the maps are very small in comparison.

[@davidgray3061]

Can I get a sound track of Homeworld 1,2,and 3 songs

[@TheFlyWahine]

I actually enjoy watcing this, and it reminds me alot of EVE Online. But i dont like that you can leave everything and still have it come with you i also dont like that you leave resources. My ocd hates that.

[@Syco108]

Find her

[@DragonxFlutter]

I really don't understand these popcap numbers. 45 Recon, 35 Interceptor, 35 Bomber, but only 75 Total Fighter cap? Why is it not 115? And 15 Assault Frigates, 15 Support Frigates, but 50 Total Frigate cap? 5 Resource Controllers but 10 Total Resource cap? Like, if you're going to tell me how many of a class of ship I can have at one time, why bother capping the associated category? That makes no sense to me. If the point is for me to build up a massive fleet, then let me have that massive fleet.

[@orckingi1208]

It might just be me but the bridge uniforms on the Khar-Kushan kind of give me a Star Trek Online vibe.

[@garicb9271]

The Empire at War videos are too far apart. imo

[@AutomatorMC]

Better games for a lot less.

[@lvgenivs2319]

lmao still 41% mixed on steam such is the path of ESG money injections.

go woke go fuckin broke i wated 20 years for hw3... i will not buy it after finding out woke morons were involved with it

[@commanderwookiecopc806]

Some of the worst writing for a game possible.

[@paddykickinitubint1692]

Homeworld 3 another DEI crap show from the same hypocrites like Sweet Baby Inc

[@TestName286]

What does dei mean and what is sweet baby

[@fellnase98]

@@TestName286 DEI refers to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. SBI is a video game narrative consultant group which consults game studios on the scripts for games with a focus on DEI. He seems to be upset about the representation of marginalised groups in games made in a world full of diverse people. Maybe he wants the cast in Homeworld 3 to be all-white and all-men again like it used to be in the gaming industry.

[@TestName286]

@@fellnase98 I really don't see how that changes any outcome tbh. Consultants are just consultants, I've worked with those kinds of people before and they just have input on how characterization should flow, not exactly how whole arcs are written. They aren't the main writers. This game had a lot of red flags that was totally not even related to the story, it's actually the gameplay that suffered the most. The homeworld story in hw2 also kind of bad.
