Since we don't have an Off-Topic section... I will post here. I just got Homeworld Remastered! It is good. Seems a little easier than the original, though. Could be because I sorta know what to do now  Ion Frigates are the best thing. And Swarmers are the worst. They killed all my strike craft and most of my Corvettes >.> Anyone know how Drone Frigates work though? I watched one throughout an entire battle and still can't figure it out. Anyway, anyone else got it? It's on sale on Steam now, if anyone's interested. |

I F**king love homeworlld re-mastered. (pardon my language)
Drone frigates work as a wall of fighters. i use them mostly for defense, or escort.
there should be a "Deploy button"
The drone frigates are an AMAZING addition
But watch out for the JUnkyard Dog on the second to last level!!! he can steal your whole fleet AND he takes Quite a hit to kill

Haven't had a chance to try it yet, but it's definitely on my todo list. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a Mac version.  |

Yes, you need to activate the frigates defense grid. It will be on the bottom right of the screen.

Yeah and then they just sit there and refuse to move, and the drone just keep dying.
Doesn't seem very effective :/
I just use them to distract enemy Ion Frigates (they keep trying to shoot down the drones).

The drones do fire, it's just that they die super fast and them my frigate just sits there being useless.

i think thats the point of them
use them tactically. they self destruct within a matter of time but if you have say 5 of them, the can be useful
