Hey, I remember the line from the manual.

Too much adorableness
SALIVATE
I'm kinda sad they didn't make it so that the battle BGM is dependent on the era of the race you're playing at; that is, HW1 races get HW1 battle music instead of everyone always getting HW2 battle music.

Just a reminder, this comes out tomorrow, and the Steam Pre-load option is now available.

If you have the Remaster on Steam, you can preload starting now.

Is that on the game's Steam page?
Also I'm guessing CVBG 52 is "Something something Battle Group 52".

Unacceptable. Respinning sequences to give Homeworld priority over World of Warcraft.

World Of Warcraft taking priority over Homeworld not efficient. Sequences must be respun, mental functions adjusted.

"Also I'm guessing CVBG 52 is "Something something Battle Group 52"."
"CV" is the naval nomenclature for aircraft carriers, so in this case it'll be "Carrier Battle Group 52".
And as someone who has never played the original Homeworld due to financial reasons but has always wanted to, being able to play it now is making me giddy.
Correct.
The Other Wiki uses that acronym too.
Time to get on the steam machine.
Never got my original discs working on my current rig, so this will be WONDROUS.
Also, the HW 2 UI in HW 1... actually works for me. And I like what they're trying with MP. Now, I never really played MP much except one LAN game that went... weird.
Due to ow HW 1 calculated damage, my friend and I had a game where in his game a shot went wide, then in mine it DIDN'T (Skipped bit of data)
As such in my game, a frigate was destroyed. In his, the frigate survived and limped out of the fight. The Computer promptly disconnected both of us, but KEPT PLAYING with AI as rivals... without either of us realising.
Cut to 15 minutes later as we both go "YES! You are defeated!" followed by some confused back and forth and screen sharing.
Ah, memories.
FYI, Scott Manley is already running an LP of Remastered. He just finished the third mission two hours ago.
That all you got?
Unit Lost is also doing an LP of it, they got done with the second mission.

Twitch has a few streams up. There seem to be some UI glitches. The top streamer by viewers is quite sarcastic. ![[lol]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lol2v12_4863.png "[lol]"){kind=small}

Did I see it right that you can use strike groups with HW1 ships? I don't mean control groups but the multi-unit formations HW2 had (Fighter Screen, Frigate Wall, Capital Phalanx).
Lost in Space
It would appear so, yes.
Edit: Did they dump Salvage Corvettes in favor of Marine Frigates in both HW1 and HW2 campaigns? That's an "aww".

I played the first couple levels of Homeworld 1 and it still has Salvage Corvettes. I got a couple Missile Corvettes out of it and they didn't show up on the unit limit counter thing.

Yeah, salvage corvettes seem to be able to nab strikecraft without assistance from a gravity well generator now.
Lost in Space
That's interesting, but I'm curious why one would be that concerned about stealing enemy strike craft. Doesn't seem worth the effort.

I unfortunately haven't read the booklet that came with the game, so unfortunately I had to Google it XD
