New changes to the game-at-large:
  • Frigates are a more viable option and are not just exploding armor for your Destroyers/Cruisers. Frigate health has been increased across the board while Destroyer and Battlecruiser health have been lowered to more appropriate levels.
  • Probe cost/time adjustments. Base probes were never worth their cost compared to the utiltiy of the scout.
  • Cloak Detection and Cloak technology cost normalized. Previously cloaking tech was expensive while cloaking detection was cheap.
  • Fire Control Tower/Vaygr Command Corvette weapon accuracy and damage boost lowered from 15% to 7%.
  • Weapon and Accuracy accrued cap lowered from 40% to 20%
  • Retaliation ranges increased on all Motherships, Carriers and Shipyards. In Homeworld 2 Classic these ships would frequently perseverate on targets well outside their weapon ranges leading to them not utilizing their defense weapons on attackers.
  • New defense weapons on capital ships to help counter strikecraft swarms
  • Cruiser/Battlecruiser unitcap set to 2
  • New scuttle damage set for most ships
  • Single tiered upgrades. Yes, there was a definite strategy between the original HW2 races that is lost but now there are two races without upgrades who must remain a viable play option. HW2 base stats for ships are higher than Classic and when upgraded ships usually fall close to where they would have been at the level 2 upgrade. For HW2 races this frees up Resources that can be used elsewhere. Vaygr, with their particularly expensive family-wide upgrades benefit from this.
Hiigaran:
  • Gunship Corvettes now have less banking to allow their turrets to more properly do their job
  • DefenseField Frigate duration increased, unit cap lowered to 2 to reflect their effectiveness
  • DefenseField Frigate can now fire its turret (HW2 Classic bug)
  • Marine Frigate attack family now set to Frigate instead of Capturer. Utilizes AttackPriorityMultiplier instead of making every weapon have 100% accuracy against it
  • MineLayer Corvette has increased health
  • Ion Cannon Frigate now has increased anti-corvette capability to help surgically remove Salvage Corvettes.
  • Ion Turrets have greater declineation values to minimize a deadspot they had right at the horizon against certain ships
  • Resource Collector health boost
  • Destroyer health lowered to reflect its cost
  • Destroyer damage against resourcers lowered. Hyperspacing a single Hiigaran Destroyer into a Resource patch and wiping out all the collectors should be a lessened threat
  • Battlecruiser health and damage lowered to reflect its cost. It is still a heavily armored projection of force but does not have 3x the health of a Destroyer
  • Increased subsystem health on select production modules
Vaygr:
  • Assault Frigate has been updated to provide Vaygr with a more viable anti-strikecraft frigate platform and has been refitted to more closely reflect its high cost
  • Vaygr Command Corvette health increased and has gained the Sensor "Ping" ability
  • Lance Fighter damage against resourcers increased to supplement their role
  • Laser Corvette firing rate normalized. Vaygr Laser Corvettes have always been good at frontloading damage on their first pass but:
    • upgrading their speed meant that when targets move towards them they occasionally could not realign their weapons after a pass, resulting in a large loss of dps and:
    • they have an unusual firing cycle that could prevent their weapons from firing until they were passing over their target
  • Vaygr Missile Corvette effectiveness against fighters slightly upgraded to provide Vaygr with a moderately more viable anti-fighter corvette platform. Their overall loss of DPS due to firing weapons into their wingmen has been erased.
  • Vaygr Hyperspace Gate is now slightly faster and has a minor built-in sensor distortion ability to incentivize its use
  • Infiltrator Frigate attack family now set to Frigate instead of Capturer. Utilizes AttackPriorityMultiplier instead of making every weapon have 100% accuracy against it
  • Vaygr Heavy Missile Frigate range slightly increased to help it compete at the same level as Ion Cannon Frigates
  • Increased subsystem health on select production modules

    Resourcing:
  • Vaygr Resource Collector load increased from 200 to 208
  • Vaygr Mothership resourcer exit paths altered to expel resourcers faster (to compensate for Vaygr Resourcers ejecting from the opposite side of Resourcing patches)
  • Vaygr Mothership resourcing paths altered to allow for faster resourcing.
  • Vaygr players start matches with 7 resourcers instead of 6
Kushan/Taiidan:
  • Cost/Health/Performance adjustments for almost all ships

    Fighters:
  • Scouts now suitable for harassment and can take down Interceptors with numbers
  • Interceptor effectiveness now carries through HW2 fighter upgrades
  • Cloaked Fighter cloaking rate adjusted. They do not cloak while attacking but they do have a cloaking rate that allows for hit and run harassment. Effectiveness vs fighters adjusted to reflect their research cost
  • DefenseFighters updated with a smaller version of the MagneticField to help block projectile munitions.
  • Defense Fighter anti-missile laser adjusted downwards to help reduce their overwhelming effectiveness against Vaygr (being the most missile based race)
  • Defenders are less of a DPS monster but are still effective against fighters and corvettes with their high rate of fire and high health

    Corvettes:
  • Light Corvettes now properly effective against fighters.
    • New AttackStyles for circle strafing and facing targets
  • Heavy Corvettes now moderately effective against fighters and have the punch and health to hurt Frigates
    • Properly utilize frontal attack styles
  • Multigun Corvettes now very effective against fighters and have the fire rate to hunt Corvettes
    • Properly face their targets and turrets adjusted to reflect their coverage

    Frigates:
  • Assault Frigates now properly effective against Corvettes and Frigates.
    • Equipped with the health to properly form the backbone of your strike groups
  • Ion Cannon Frigates now equipped with the range and damage to attack Frigates/Capitals/Subsystems
  • Field Frigates now equipped with a fulltime MagneticField
  • Drone Frigates remain an effective anti-strikecraft frigate platform
    • Drone duration greatly increased to reduce the need to constantly monitor the deployment of drones

    SuperCapitals:
  • Missile Destroyers are now effective at their anti-strikecraft roles
  • Carrier/Cruiser engine health matches HW2 numbers

    Repairers:
  • Repair and Support Frigate healing rates adjusted upwards
    • Healing ranges increased to allow for repairing larger ships like the Taiidan Mothership and increase the overall repair effectiveness

    NonCombat:
  • Gravwell ability range more closely matches the original HW1 radius
    • Hyperspace Inhibitor range set to 10,500 to help protect Motherships from hyperspacing cruiser attacks
    • Gravwell now can not be regenerated once activated
    • Gravwell innate hyperspace ability now self disables upon activation

    Resourcing:
  • Kushan Resource Controller resourcing path altered to compensate for the rotation of resourcers when dropping off their RU loads
  • Drop-off rates specifically tuned by race to allow HW1 races to remain competitive
  • Kushan Carrier's innate resource drop-off altered. Attackers will no longer attempt to attack from the top of the carrier, preventing their weapon fire from striking the drop-off
  • Kushan/Taiidan resourcers have their innate hyperspacing ability restored
  • Resource Controllers no longer have pre-requisite research and can now be built at map start

    Research:
  • Research Ship build times adjusted to more smoothly move through research timings. It is now more desirable to build all Research Hubs.
  • Research time/costs adjusted to allow a HW1 player to choose to start at either fighters, vettes or frigates and not be at such a severe disadvantage when matched against a HW2 opponent
  • attack bomber research removed to give HW1 races more options upon completion of "FighterChassis" research
  • Repair Corvettes no longer have a prerequisite research
  • Light Corvettes are now granted upon completion of "CorvetteDrive"
  • Salvage Corvettes are now granted upon completion of "CorvetteChassis"
  • SuperCapitalDrive now grants Carriers instead of Destroyers to give HW1 players more flexibility in choosing their next upgrade path and to help match the HW2 Shipyards/Carriers they are likely facing
  • Destroyers and Cruisers now require "IonCannons" to be researched first due to their Ion based weaponry
New Multiplayer Gametype Options:
  • Disallow Cruisers - Enable/Disable
New Player vs CPU AI Improvements:
  • HW1 race AI now has better logic for calculating the number of resource drop-offs required and Resource Controllers should no longer circle a resourcing patch like sharks
  • Vaygr AI now better at upgrading its ships
  • Hiigaran AI now more frequently upgrades
  • HW1 races now apply separate scalars to fighters and corvettes to make itself more aware that one interceptor is not equal to 5 or 7 interceptors
  • classdef improvements, ie Vaygr laser corvettes is not an effective anti corvette strategy
  • HW1 races now more likely to utilize their multiple build production queues
  • HW1 AI does not understand how to effectively utilize repair ships so they won't build them just like HW2 won't make platforms
  • HW1 AI now knows about CloakedFighters and Defenders
  • HW1 AI now has a better concept of building mixed units and is less likey to forget about strikecraft when frigates and higher are at play
Effects:
  • New art for Taiidan MagneticField
  • New hit FX for Taiidan MagneticField
  • Fixed missing hit FX for Hiigaran DefenseField
  • New weapon FX for HW1 bombers
  • New weapon FX for HW1 Assault Frigate Plasma Bombs
  • New hit FX for select rapid firing HW1 strikecraft to minorly reduce overdraw
  • New missile/torpedo trails
Missiles:
  • Many improvements to lifetime/maneuverability, etc.
  • Kushan/Taiidan Missile Destroyers are now effective anti-strikecraft platforms
  • Vaygr frigate concussion missile launchers have had a complete overhaul. Instead of having too short of a lifetime and such poor maneuvering stats to ever hit anything, Vaygr Assault and Heavy Missile Frigates have top mounted concussion launchers with separate stats that complement the role of the ship they are mounted to.
  • Mine duration increased from 3 minutes to 10 minutes
For Modders:

Re: Официальный баланс-мод от Gearbox

Модель поведения корветов Кушан/Таиидан, наконец-то стала напоминать таковые из оригинала. ИМХО, им бы стоило её прямо в игру вшить, следующим патчем.
Вообще, игрушка стала более динамичной, но некоторые балансировки, как по мне, были излишними. Впрочем, в сетевые я не заглядываю, так что вполне возможно, что их критичность мною сильно недооценена.

Re: Официальный баланс-мод от Gearbox

Достаточно интересные и долгожданные изменения, теперь есть смысл играть в Ремастеред по сети и даже записывать. Единственное, что я не очень хорошо понял, так это про magnetic field - это просто изменили название поля или что-то изменилось в самой работе поля?
