Similar Games?
Anyone got a game that is similar to this because this game scratched such a niche game itch that i have never been able to satisfy with any other game

indeed, Starsector looks interesting. Will it hit Steam?
-
not a really recommendation of similar game, but remembering more...
anyone here remember Star Trek Deep Space Nine Dominion Wars from 2001(even before Nexus was)? =)
not 10\10 game but very similar concept with Nexus - 1. briefing 2. choosing ships for our fleet 3. equipping our ships with stuff(shields, weapons etc) and hiring team 4. mission itself 5. victory screen with stats 7. back to №1.
beated this game 3-4 times, back in the years ;) sadly it's not working on modern GPUs and OS's

"sadly it's not working on modern GPUs and OS's" hmmmmm...

Like I say, if you're interested in all that stuff check of Shallow Space: Insurgency which is about to hit Early Access. The idea behind Shallow Space is that all ships large and small are grouped into Wings and then Flotilla, these formations are reinforced in the UI and perks and attribute bonuses earned by Officers and equipment alike will influence ship attributes and abilities in those respective formations.

It's shaping up to be a game where you can pre-stage your orders and fly around marvelling at your forethought or get stuck in activating abilities and tweaking battlefronts. Abilities such as 'Short Range Jump' will allow you to instantly withdraw your forces from battle, cycling the Flotillas acting on the front lines pulling them back to recharge shields (and abilities) with the relief effort going in - rinse and repeat as appropriate.

Other examples of diverse tactical choice would include:
  • Missile's will come in different types for different jobs
  • Ships can be rigged with different type of weapons (Energy, Kinetic, Precise and Artillery[AOE])
  • Ships can be rigged with hull modules kinda like Eve Online
  • Aggressive Abilities will be by default auto-activated, but you can control them (think about activating those Battlecruiser spinal mount weapons when an enemy Capital Ships shields are down)
With all this in mind you can play the game in two ways, lots of cheap ships as cannon fodder OR spend your points developing hulls with load-outs suitable for certain tasks and crush your enemy cleverly (or even just remove their ability to fight.) You'll configure these hulls by spending points and fitting modules much the same as you would in a 4X game such as Endless Space.

The intended field of play for a singleplayer campaign will be an entire planetary system chopped up into chunks situated around 'Lagrange' points which we call instances, the limited alpha demo represents one such 'instance' of combat - with a very very small tactical bound at that. We've prototyped the campaign system and it works, but whether we see it now or in future depends on funding (and there will be multi-player restrictions.) If not, the campaign will be a set of big linear instances much like Homeworld.

The game is a single player, campaign driven type with skirmishes, multiplayer planned for the skirmish modes at the least. We're going indie on this one so expect Early Access around August, if it peaks your interest the latest version of the demo is now live, click here to be directed to a set of notes highlighting improvements, a link to the goods is at the bottom of the page.

I couldn't find anything about Steam on the Star Sector site. It looks VERY different from Nexus. More like a 2D Mandate (not out yet but has a page on Steam) which could be fun.

I just watched some videos for Shallow Space. Looks really good IMO. I'm hoping all these customization options make it in to the end product. I love being able to tack on new guns and stick officers where I want them.

Does Shallow Space have forums on Steam yet? I didn't come across any.

Shallow Space is on Greenlight. use the search function there.

Anyone tried Nomad Fleet? released to Early Access recently.
Mitth'raw'nuruodo 2015 年 7 月 3 日 上午 5:59 
Nomad Fleet looks like it has unit building inside battles like a generic RTS. (if that is really the case) Immediate pass for me.

That seems more like Homeworld and that game royally sucked due to its adaptive AI, severely and over the top cheated.

Into the Void is a nice game. ship kitting out gives a nice nexus vibe even though games are not comparable directly.
Talint 2016 年 2 月 3 日 上午 4:25 
If anyone has not yet seen. check this, since release is pretty soon - Battlefleet Gothic: Armada
PS: it's even have "copied-like" elements of Nexus UI and control options, in the game Interface. Also one of the pros - game is on UE4 engine. Which means, space will be beautiful for sure :)
PPS: i can see only one con, battle seems in 2d =( but i'm not sure. Oh, and since it's a licensed game, also one more con, it's a price of course.(and probably expensive dlc's milking incoming)
