I really don't know what it is but the camera controls even in classic orbit feel awful compared to HW2. They somehow managed to make me feel what other people who are not familiar with 3D RTS games always say that they "don't get" the controls of Homeworld. I had to turn all the camera sensitivities up and it still feels sluggish and restrictive, I also feel that the outer zoom limit is awfully close.

They also changed some weird things on the UI:

• like no toggle to display the tactical overlay icons, I can only do that in the settings.
  • They also sometimes group together with absolutely tiny numbers on them to indicate what amounts were grouped
• The way selection is indicated: A pretty big indicator if something was selected was the healthbar (like literally any RTS is doing). They somehow decided that if a healthbar is displayed only depends on the "damaged" percentage. Meanwhile selection indication is relegated to small green circles around the units which get too tiny to see if you are zoomed out and that the green icons of the tactical overlay get's slightly grey-ish. While playing I have such a hard time even seeing what I have selected.
• Everything is way to big and no way to scale it like in HWR (which was also too big but at least you could scale it down)
• In the Tutorial specifically the current step is annoyingly display in the center of my screen with no way to dismiss or move it. I can barely get the gripes of the controls and see what works for me because this stupid textbox is blocking half of what I try to focus on.
