Kickstarter - Novus AEterno

Ill shut up… See you guys after christmas!

After watching that movie I’m starting to doubt. I’m not such a fan of micromanagement either.

What movie?

This is just filler

i wager he was referring to the campaign video…

I want to know 2 things

1: How long will it take to build stuff because I don’t want this turning into a supremacy 1916 thing where it could take a week to make decent progress.

2: How will I play with my friends? because I would love to play this game with friends but how do I do that if my friend spawns on the other side of the galaxy and we might not even be able to find each other.

@Newf This one, check it out :slight_smile:

this mmorts genre reminds me of supremacy 1914. Anyone played that?
It was pretty fun the games I played there.

I have played it but while enjoying it extremely I found it rather annoying when it would take a week to build a battleship and I have not played in a while so it may have been longer but overall I don’t want this game having the same long drawn out build times. Im just saying the longest I want a build time to be is 24 hours maybe 48 but anything above will be a pain in the ass.

yea you need a harbor (2 days) and 3 levels of factory (2 days each). And battleship itself 4 days buildtime at level 3 factory.

But to me that is a strong point of the game. You can play it even when you have a busy RL, no wiping out overnight. You can spy out the factory, sabotage it, conquer it or prepare for what is coming out of the factory. Or try to form allies by diplomacy.
But I have to admit it can be boring some time into the match if there is not a lot of action going on. Usually the first 2 weeks or so.

Usually for me I end up getting stabbed in the back unless there is a decent amount of land owned by another

Side Note: Anyone wanting to ‘prepare’ for this game I would recommend Stardrive and Supremacy 1914 because they are very similar games.

yeah yeah right… you meant to say unless I have the time to do it myself nyaa :smirk_cat:

hmm, I mostly did not get backstabbed when in alliance, happened only a couple times. My experience was that you could reliable feel if people were going to backstab you.

I was quite paranoid so maybe thats why I was backstabbed so much…I always had a decent gaurd on my borders so people must of thought I was going to invade them…

In a free for all kind of game, even if you ally yourself, there’s only gonna be one winner, so you have to at some point fight your ally whether in an agreed battle or not.

And if said ally shows you a weakness during the game, not taking advantage of that opening would be like saying that he is not worthy of your effort and would only be disrespectful to your ally.

That’s how I explain it usually to my disheartened allies.



TO get back on topic here, the campaign seems to progress slowly but steadily for now.

I don’t understand those pax awards 2012 that are written about in the campaign, like best rts or runner up best indie. The game’s not out yet so where does that come from?

A preview version they presented maybe?

Just trying to revive the thread for any new comers, I want to make that 500k stretchgoal!

These devs are pretty awesome, they gave me the game 2 weeks ago, you can check out some videos I made, including a dev interview with the founder and lead dev:



COME ONE! COME ALL! Throw your money at the screen!

This game looks like it will reform the MMO genre and finally do away with WOW (World of Warcraft) copies and if that is not enough incentive to fund this game, Some of the ships have teeth and will EAT other ships,

Again, The game looks good but all my money is in [Novus Aeterno][1]'s hands…

P.S. Yes I am shamelessly advertising this game…I do it because this game needs more money. Stonehearth got 500K So far these guys only got 170K I feel that this game is atleast on par with Stonehearth if not better and I really hope these guys get the public they deserve. Stonehearth got a hundred youtube videos from the Celebrities of Youtube…These guys got one from Rooster Teeth…

I know you’re excited because you said you’re excited.

If we could keep it in the thread for Novus Aeterno that would be great.

That thread is old and most of the regulars have seen it and the new threads are the ones that get all the publicity because users get a notification, The only way I can do this game any good is by hijacking @SteveAdamo’s kickstarter threads…Although I would rather not get in the way of other Kickstarter Devs this game is nearing the end and needs the support now whereas these campaigns have a long time ahead of them…
