If a CD soundtrack of uncompressed, remixed Homeworld2 music were published, would you buy it?

This is an official poll of Relic's asking.

Please only vote a simple yes or no.

How much would a sound track like that cost?

Why would I want to buy such a thing if I can extract it from the big file ?

Homeworld2 Soundtrack

Yes, I'd definitely buy it, if it would ever arrive in our country. But, I have done some amazon shopping in the past and will probably do it again.

sounds kewl to me, id love to have the soundtrack on CD. i have all the music extracted to my comp as well. Sure add more bells 'n' wissles, however wont make much difference to me. id like to have some artwork as well, also maybe some groovy jpg's of blue prints of all of the ships. Actually if someone has some of the blue prints right now id love to have them ^^.

Do birds that can fly have wings?

Sure! :thumb:

Would be nice to hear this stuff minus the beeps and mission effects mixed in!

I wouldn't pay for it, but it'd be a good idea to put it in the GOTY edition of HW2 if it comes out. Otherwise I'll just dl it from somewhere.

Yes and I'd order international to get it.

Blatantly defying your "yes or no" stipulation I also want to add that if a CD soundtrack of the original game was reissued I'd purchase that, too.

The remixed soundtracks of HW and HW2 would be nice, but I wonder how they want to distribute it. US and Canada isn't a problem, I wonder if they would make it international available.

Definately.

Homeworld2 has the best "ethno-ambient" music I've ever heard. Heck, I've ALREADY remixed and burned my .big extracts with Nero and I'd STILL buy a copy (plus maybe one or two more for friends). I'm not kidding, the quality of the music on HW2 is simply outstanding (if not all the track sampling).

It would almost be a crime _not_ to publish a HW2 OST. Rhett Brewer totally rocks, man.

Of course, it would be real nice of them to throw in a couple of bonus extras like Angus Dei and and maybe the first misson track from Cata (that one _really_ rocks).

The beauty is they can release the extra CD's with later releases of HW2.

Quite apparently a "GOTY" edition is unlikely, as reviewers are drooling over the FPS' and their years of failure. More likely though is Sierra could nab a few of those Strategy Game of the Year or Game of Choice awards from your random reviewer. Throw on a big pretty sticker for the included music CD and you've got a few people going for it. But that's a guess, I'm not an expert.

Yeah, that is indeed strange...Maybe there is a secret "download homeworld 2 soundtrack button" on sierra.com. I'll go look for one such button, but the site is huge, it could take weeks. Wish me luck...

Even strategy game of the year is going to be tough, however....*cough*War3:Frozen Throne*cough*

HW2 is a great game but TFT is so much more popular that I'm pretty sure it's gonne rake it in

I would buy such a CD, in fact I am waiting for such a CD since I completed the game for the 1st time. I have extracted the music files from the game but still I would like to buy an official Homeworld II CD to add it to my collection simply because I think it is the best game I have ever played since I own a computer. And this matter is not open for discussion since it is my own personal opinion.

Yes. Count me in.

In case anyone's asking, I'd also be interested in HW1/HW2 clothing (t-shirts or hats) similar to what is available with the Relic and IC logos.

Ditto. It would be nice if Blizzard re-released the HW1 GotY soundtrack CD along with the HW2 score. Maybe a 2 disc set. They could sell it online from the Relic and/or Sierra web sites. It would have made a great "stocking stuffer" this Christmas had they released it in time.

That said, does anyone know where I can buy the Homeworld 1 soundtrack these days? I LOVED IT, but I can't find it anywhere.

If Relic releases a homeworld 1&2 soundtrack double-pack, I'd buy five! Seriously!

well, i will openly say i voted no

reasons being: the first official hw soundtrack sucked... i hated the remixed crap and utter gayness of it, secondly i feel that the raw extracted music files extracted from hw and cata then burned onto cd made a much more fitting soundtrack than that which was published with the goty edition, thirdly i wouldnt pay for something which i could make better on my own...

thats my 2 cents... peace easy mates,

meda out

You mean they changed the original game-music for the soundtrack? Why?

And how do I extract the music files?

The soundtrack that came w/ the GOTY edition of Homeworld wasn't remixed. It's the same stuff that's in-game. But to be fair, the only tracks I find myself listening to are Agnus Dei and the Turanic Battle Music (both of which more than carry the disk).

BTW, if an admin could give me some help, I'm not being allowed to vote in any polls.

To avoid the hassle of trying to download all the tools all over again and everything...

My answer is an unwaviering Yes.

Even though I do not own the game yet, HW has remarkable music (Even Cata!) and I'd love to get my hands on a CD.

Now...what about an artbook?
