    Dagnabbit not Homeworld2! Jesus I saw no merit in having such a clucky and cumbersome interface. Maybe if it where released a few years from now when interface devices catch up with ambitious games like HW will they feel the way they should.

    I will wait until 'Lawnmower man' style interfaces hit the market before I bamboozle myself trying to command units in 3d space, all the while fumbling my mouse and hitting the monitor in frustration.

    Clunky? Everything is hotkeyed. I am anticipating this one because Relic is doing it. i didn't like the way Barking Dog did Cata.. for some reason and neither did Relic.

    I liked Homeworld, but Cataclysm had its benefits. Still have not completed the Cataclysm campaign though
