Title: The most awesomest game ever.
Post by: madtoaster55 on August 25, 2010, 02:48:46 PM
I got Aurora a couple of months ago (3?) and I have to say, it is the most awesome game I have ever played. The complexity of it, the ship design and varied planets are so very very amazing, and I would like to congratulate the dev for a great game. I havent had time to make a proper game (Im gonna start one and actually stick to it this time :P) but I have had a lot of very short ones, one of them ending with me ragequitting when all my survey ships were destroyed by precursors in the jump from Sol. If someone could give me some ideas for how to start a game (Not with things like technology, just what direction I should go), and also, how I can effectively manage my map, its always cluttered with systems all over the place >.<.

Glad to hear you are enjoying the game!

There is a thread about organising the galactic map here: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=2782 (http://aurora.pentarch.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=2782)

Also read through the Academy forum as there is lots of advice for newcomers starting new games.
