I just saw this on Steam and immediately came here 
I can find very little info about it, just one story each on Polygon and IGN. Nothing I've seen looks super-exciting (sand < space) but here's to hoping that it turns out well. At least the controls are guaranteed to be less confusing than Homeworld 1 & 2.

Back when it was Hardware: Shipbreakers it was described as "the world's first planetary-scale social strategy game."
Hopefully, it's not Clash of Clans.

Bump! As a massive Homeworld fan I am going to play the crap out of this game. If anyone wants to do some MP matches with me when it releases, add me on steam!

Ok let me feed you all with this latest and only good gameplay vid. Lets be honest what they release was could only be 'Vine' but there It is.
Is it me or the resolution is stretched? I saw this from other "gamepaly videos" and allways questioned me for how can this be? Does It look stretched?

So I've preordered it and will be playing on launch.
Lots of good coh 2 guys were involved in a balance test for the game, so there should be some familiar faces kicking around in game. Game is confirmed to cap out at 3v3 in automatch I believe, full ranking system and everything too.

Well, I pre-ordered. If anything, just for the story line, because I like Homeworld. And maybe, this will spurn a Homeworld 3...?

Twice the price of homeworld remastered for an unfinished game that looks like a homeworld-mod with 5 maps.
Oh well, I still have hwr to scratch that homeworld-itch.
I was happy to see it released, but the reviews I´ve seen are realy disapointing.

Ya, I'm not all that impressed. Just playing the campaign so far, but it's a simple RTS. The so-called advantage of having high ground doesn't seem to matter much. Focus attacks and attack moves works well enough. And with the NLIPs off for proper scaling, you really viewing mainly just the tactical symbols rather than the units themselves.
What I really don't like are the controls. As said in the review, you can't reassign/assign any of the keys. Worse, IMO, they don't have the same controls as Homeworld. IMO, if you're going to carry the name, you should have a majority of the controls the same. Especially the mouse controls. Lack of mouse Focus being the most irritating, and when you do manage to Focus, because of the controls, you can't "explore" your moving units like you could in HW 1 & 2 the way they have the mouse work.
Story is great Homeworld fanfare though. Campaign, in that regard, is just like HW 1 & 2.
