Star Trek Enhanced Space Combat Nexus: The Jupiter Incident mod

[Xanketh]

Best Star Trek Game ever they should make games like this instead of all those other pathetic poorly made

Star Trek Games

[Idazmi7]

This IS probably how it would look, though.

[TShafe88]

So. Just in case anybody was wondering. This is a game. From 2004. That is not in any way related to Star Trek. Yet it has been modded to look better than ANY commercial Star Trek game on the market. It outperforms any contemporary game. This game is 7 years old, people! Interplay needs to hire this modder right now, and as for you, Mr. Video Maker--I honestly got chills down my spine when Epicon kicked in--that was like a new Star Trek trailer...I haven't seen battles that awesome in--ever.

[Idazmi7]

@TShafe88 Bridge Commander...

[gamerscircle]

What is the music again?

[OperationDx1]

This is the best startrek game I have ever seen. And it's a freaking mod. Very impressive.

[Idazmi7]

@OperationDx1 Bridge commander...

[stevo5213]

@OperationDx1 that's because the base game nexus makes fiction reality

[mangomango999]

The company that made this game should pull together the mod makers, license their work and re-release the game with the upgrades. Giving them new life. Maybe they would even update the compatibilities like give us access to Win 64 bit memory. Money could make this happen. Does Bill Gates like Star Trek?

[Wimpoman]

Epic!

[gurujee666999]

YEAAAYYYY!!!!

[LirrenShentai]

You know what the saddest part is? And by sad I mean that it's sad the game companies can't make games that look this good...at least ST games...but this game runs on an engine that could run on a WINDOWS 98 OS!!! Legacy can't do that, and it looks like some kid went crazy with the blur tool in photoshop. And don't even get my started on the weapon effects...that's what makes/breaks a ST game for me, and legacy didn't even come CLOSE.

[CwazyIndian]

How can you play this MOD in single player? figured the single player only had missions o.o

[chas551]

what game is this????

[HorusHunter31]

@chas551 It's a mod for Nexus the jupiter incident, you can buy that game for 10 bucks on Steam. ;)

[ekofourtwenty]

if STO was half this vid, i woulda been 10 times more happy then what crypic did with this IP

[kazgimar]

if star trek online looked like this i would play it

[tji74]

Is this for Star Trek Online? If so where can I get this mod? Totally Awesome!!!!

[JohnSheppard94]

@tji74 You cann not get mods for MMORPG's like Star Trek Online. This is a Mod for the game Nexus.

[lcmorgan1221]

Read the description.

[disabledlife]

I thought the game comes out on tuesday?? SYFY will be hosting it by showing star trek shows all day.

[marco0798]

way too much defiant action for me, who cares about a puny destroyer when you got Sovereign Battleships in the background

[TheMarokii]

@marco0798 but they arent battleships...starfleet doesnt believe in them, they are basically just exploration vehicles. they only ship designed for war is the defiant.

[ArcadiaCv]

@TheMarokii 1 word, Prometheus. Starfleet believes in combat ships, they just do it secretly.

[SirBroadsword]

@TheMarokii

Actually, the Akira, Sovereign, Intrepid, Norway, Sabre and Steamrunner class ships, whilst capable of scientific exploration, were all designed in direct response to the first Borg incursion and with combat missions in mind, with the Intrepid's mission profile designating, "Long range tactical assignments". It would be more correct to say that Starfleet's only pure warships are the Defiant and Prometheus, but all the others I listed were "designed for war", just not pure warships

[PhilosopherGaming]

@TheMarokii and so you think they decked them out with powerful shields and weaponry purely for self defense? They are also the offensive arm and quite a few of the ships featurered here were designed as combat ships first and foremost (the bord gave starfleet a much needed dose of reality I reckon)

Sorry I know its an ancient comment but i couldnt resist :)

[TheFailedAssassin]

bad back ground music, don't fit the vid most of the time

[JohnSheppard94]

Very nice Video

[BonScottAC]

Beautiful, goose bumps good.

[dussan2]

anyway to just get the ships in the game and play through the singleplayer campaign?>

[Atowntrekkie]

Amazing! EPIC!!!!! FIVE STARS!!!!

[lcxantos]

I want to know wha this song(s) are called. Pretty epic music.

[picard81]

Immediate Music : 1 farenheit, 1 Strength & Honor, 3 epicon

[PAA4life]

mission lost: the romulan's are still alive!

supercool video 5*+fav's

[Pilkingtube]

ty :D

[Pilkingtube]

sorry can i ask the name of the first track? :o

[buk1237]

Its a shame Nexus 2 never got released, just imagine the visual quality if this mod was made for it instead!

[Ykm11]

AMAZING stuff, I'm going to get nexus just for this mod, so erm thanks!

[SirBroadsword]

This... is fan-bloody-tastic!

[Force5]

Great Mod!!!!!! I was just thinking of playing this game again. Now I have a reason. I always loved the black sun engine that nexus used.

[TouchedProductions]

Time to dust off my copy of Nexus, I see.

[Mazryonh]

Quality like Nexus NEVER gets old!

Would that more people have discovered the gem it actually was . . .

[jcstoner]

i'm thinking about buying it on steam. but i've been wondering if the game is hard to get into like X-3 is.

[Mazryonh]

If you read the manual carefully, you won't have that hard a time. X3 is much harder than Nexus is.

If you end up having trouble, send me a message. I can help with this great game.

[Norky100]

I bought it today, i was thinking the same but it is really infact prety simple once you learn it all :)..its worth the buy..5.99 cant go wrong haha.

[jcstoner]

yeah i bought it yesterday. but i bought it on steam, cost me 9.99. really cool game though.

[Norky100]

I thought the same and it isnt, its a REALLY REALLY good game with a brilliant story. It gets prety difficult too.

[jcstoner]

yeah. i bought it like a day after i had posted that comment. it's a great game.

[Norky100]

Oh wait i already commented you haha

[jcstoner]

lol

[LucianManuel]

Version 1.2 is out! Check it out on Moddb :)

[phillip1054]

Bloody hell man, i think thats the best star trek fight i've ever seen yet. Well done mand and hats off to you.

[Mazryonh]

I would like to know the title of the song that starts at 1:48 is as well. Very nice choice, that song.

[phongbong]

How do i beat the borg cube on battle of the Typhoon sector? It's impossible!

[LucianManuel]

Ship balance has been re-adjusted. Make sure you have the 1.1 patch installed :). Try using the attack pattern delta command after a destroy hull command :)

[Ravage86]

Can somebody please tell me what music that is at 1:48 ? Thank you!

[bigd524]

This is how star trek games should be made, none of that stupified crap.

[RayPall]

@bigd524 I think that Bridge Commander, fitted with Kobayashi Maru is great game from ST universe...

[bigd524]

@RayPall Bridge commander is the only respectable star trek game i can think of...

[RayPall]

@bigd524 I don't know, I played only Bridge Commander...but BC is great game, especially with downloaded Stargate, BSG and Star Wars ships...There's nothing better than duel between BC-304 Odyssey with Asgard weaponry against Imperial Star Destroyer, or Pegasus against USS Enterprise-E!

[PhilosopherGaming]

@bigd524 theres sar fleet command 3, thats a respectable enough one (a bit of a pain to get new)

[bigd524]

@PhilosopherGaming Yeah i was able to find the first one but none of the others...

[bigd524]

@RayPall Yeah but they are not worth the money without the mods.... bridge commander is the best Star trek game, and the development of Star Trek Excalibur looks good but thats indi...

[LucianManuel]

Hi, I'm the designer of this mod and I was wondering if you'd like to let me use your video as a way of promoting my mod :) Thanks!

[altgr007]

nice movie

[LucianManuel]

not to worry, version 1.2 of the mod will have a completely different balance, all weapons will do less damage, all ships will have stronger hulls and shields and there will be a lot more cannon ships for all races. I'm also working on a way to bring a ship's shields up to 100% immediately afterentering combat zone. The shields when go up now display a red alert sound :) you can check the mod's progress on the moddb page :)

[Mazryonh]

This my friends, is the TRUE POWER of the revolutionary Black Sun Engine when it comes to tactical space combat! If only Star Trek TV shows could be this intense every episode! If only Star Trek PC games could be this awesome!

LONG LIVE NEXUS!

[AngelOfIron]

How did you get the AI to work so well? I've tried several times to construct a battle like that using NEXUS Skirmisher and the ships usually end up doing nothing more than circling one another, only firing periodically.

[SoulAssassino]

Well, it's more the matter of balancing and weapons programming than AI behavior i think.

[Mazryonh]

In fact, I think this mod made a nice step forward in implementing fixed axis weaponry into the Nexus engine. I like how the Defiant's forward phaser cannons work now; in the original Age of War they barely fired at all, though I think its dorsal and ventral phaser strips should have fired more often in this vid.

Did you help with this mod or not? If not, then maybe you could borrow some of their code to make fixed-axis weaponry in your own mod work!
