Fair enough, there are certainly notable advantages to Nova that appeal to some players more than Era. Season 9 and 3 would be really fun; I hope one day we can play late season 9 when we had a 3 shotgun meta (pump, combat, tac) and experience multi-shotgun again in season 3!
nah bro said more players💀💀💀 i get max 40 players on nova and at least 80 players on era consistently. And Nova has so much cheaters its crazy, you can barely play a normal game
Interesting, I am surprised you find more players on Era, but it depends on your server, timezone, and when you like to play so that's totally possible. I agree though, the hacking in Nova is out of control in my experience too, hopefully they get it under control!
For me hacking in Nova seems to have gotten worse over time, but it is luck of the draw with finding hackers or not. Also, some of the hackers are subtle with less aggressive aim hacks, so it can be hard to tell sometimes.
I’ve been in the og fn community for a long time since June last year and I can say both these servers are 100% safe nova is better for good players or players who wanna get better era is for people who want a more 1:1 experience.
Yeah, assuming little to no hacking, both Nova and Era have their own appeals, there's not a right or wrong answer in that debate. In terms of Nova and Era skills transfering to regular Fortnite, it will somewhat apply, but so much has changed since Season 6/7 to today it would be inefficient practice for modern Fortnite. Almost every gun has received balance changes in the past 5 years.
If you want to get better play the normal game that’s what it’s for Adderall addicted teenagers I don’t understand why you would play nova or era if ur gonna try hard ur actually a fucken looser if you try hard on either
server manager for nova here, great video with no biases just straight comparisons (loot pool comparisons were super interesting to hear about), glad to see high quality videos based on OG projects !!!
Thank you for the kind words! It's great to see Era and Nova doing well, a couple years ago I never thought I'd see the day we can play old Fortnite again!
Hey I have a question. I've played Project Era and They don't have a playground mode, where I can just explore the map by myself. I wanted to know if Nova had playground or something where you can play by yourself or not. Because thats what I'm looking for.
@@ItsAstreo we offer a public playground mode for subscribers for every region 24/7 as well as paid for servers privately where you can host playground !!
i played a couple games on Era, haven't played Nova yet but i think that there are a lot of sweats in Era, which is ofcourse to be expected, but i personally don't feel like it gives me the nostalgia of what fortnite used to be, i want there to be a lot of casuals like myself playing the game without having to worry about getting fullpieced in a matter of milliseconds after seeing an opponent, other than that i don't have any complaints about era, it feels really nostalgic and good to be back with the old movement and mechanics of the old fortnite game, it's just sad that there are that many sweats and half-full lobbies
I can see your point; Era may seem sweaty if you are looking for a true casual experience. I've seen the Fortnite player's ideological divide on full display recently, I've had people argue Era is both too casual and too competitive. It just goes to show Fortnite players aren't in even the same universe in terms of what they want.
Era: - Better suited for casuals - Harder to get in matches one after another - Incentive to play (Battlepass/Item shop) - Awful delay on building, unstable servers, high spikes in packet loss (75 EU avg) Nova: - Sweaty - Higher player base - Lobbies empty out very fast by 2nd zone - Better ping (40 EU avg) - Cheaters galore (anticheat pretty much non existent) These are the defining differences. Era is more nostalgic, Nova is a sweat's wet dream. Both are clunky and annoying to get around, but there are no current alternatives since fmod's death.
I think this is a great summary; they both have their advantages and respective problems. It would be interesting if we had a third competitor, but as of now as you said, there are not really any other viable options.
The last time i played a private server it was fmod and was some of the most fun i have ever had playing any game until you know what happened with fmod happend with og fn ending im probably gonna try both and see which one suits me more im leaning towars nova since i love cosmetics a ton but maybe era is a more fun a casual experience
They are both are fun, if you have the time, giving both a try is probably your best bet! Keep in mind even though you don't get every cosmetic at the start in Project Era, you still get a lot of cosmetics as you can get vbucks really fast! But if you want to try every skin, then Nova is the only option.
You still have some time until Era moves to season 7, so don't give up hope! One thing to note is that Era is available on other platforms, so any PC from the last 10-15 years would be enough to create an account and get it on another device, even if the PC itself can't play Project Era.
I'm hoping both can get more server options later down the line. I play in Australia and i can't even play this game due to high ping. Ik other people also have this issue which sucks for those not in the regions these 2 versions target. I'm not sure how that would work since I am no game dev or coder/programmer but hopefully it's possible. Either way both of these 2 og fortnite emulators are great and are doing good work to allow players to relive the old versions of fortnite.
That would be great if there were more servers; the ping has got to be really high from Australia. Era used to have OCE servers, but the player counts were really low, so it's gone; maybe if the demand increases with more players, they can add it back!
what do you think will happen after either of these reach chapter 1's last season? do you think they'll go to chapter 2? I really hope they just start all over again and keep doing that forever since it'd be kinda dumb to move from the og map
Honestly I don't know right now, I haven't heard a concrete answer. They could technically go backward in seasons at any point, so we will have to wait and see! I'm curious whether they will do Season 7 because Nova is on season 7 right now.
Epic will sue ppl who will recreate chp 2. Originally, recreation of chp 1 map was banned by fortnite but the community begged for it so they allowed it
im no pro but with the l2 spamming id recommend not spamming at a distance as the bloom makes it nearly impossible to hit shots, same when your using a deagle you should get your reticle near them and then hard scope to line up better, great vid tho
Your not wrong, at a certain point you are better off tap firing than full auto even with L2; I should probably start tap firing a bit sooner. Also, your method for Deagle shots is perfectly valid, you can either line it up while ADS and then untap and retap L2, or line it up with hipfire and tap L2; both methods work. I always found the second method to work better for me, but that's just my preference.
I would definitely choose project era because there is no hackers and in era but there’s hackers everywhere and on nova you just get free skins and everything but in era you work for it which is nicer and funner and you can actually play matches without hackers and you can play seasons like different seasons but nova has 2 seasons but I choose era
Yeah I have experienced serious hacking problems in Nova while Era it happens very rarely so I agree the experience is better on that front. I totally see the appeal of a progression system with vbucks being better in Era, it makes you want to complete the historical challenges!
I just started researching this but Nova has verified Trojans and I’ve seen multiple people talk about losing their accounts. You also get banned if you even talk about viruses in the nova discord. If I were you I’d go with Era.
Unfortunately, I wanted to bring Nova gameplay as well, but for me, Nova is basically unplayable right now, I run into hackers every other game. I'm hoping they fix the hacker problem; if they do, I would reconsider, but right now, playing Nova is honestly a complete waste of time for me. It's unfortunate there are some things Nova does better than Era, but the hacker problem is rampant.
Assuming you take standard security practices, Project Era/Nova should be safe on most reasonably modern computers, I don't think you particularly model would make it unsafe. Low storage shouldn't be a problem as long as the game fits, and I don't see a security problem with the geobook 140, though you might have a hard time running the game at playable frame rates depending on your computer's specs.
Atm there is more people in matches in era, and in there you get go grind aswell unlike nova where you already have everything, plus there is way more hackers in nova
Yeah in Project Era there has been a huge boost to player recently, it's been a lot of fun! I can totally see why the vbucks grind might be appealing in Era as well.
I like era better cuz it has access to more platforms including Windows Android and iOS and apparently the Nintendo switch witch that last one shocked me but I will be playing that version
Personally I prefer era because there isn’t edit on release so it takes more skill to get good at , plus I like having to earn the skins whilst also not spending any money where on nova you get them all for free
I'm in Australia so I get high ping no matter what. Nova has OCE servers, but max 10 players. I prefer Era though because I like the battlepass and items hop, as it gives skins some sort of rarity. I also like Era because of the changing of sesaons.
Yeah Era used to have OCE servers but there were only like 2-3 people per game so it's gone now, hopefully Era grows to support OCE servers properly! I can totally see your point on the changing seasons, makes the game much more dynamic!
my main problem is there isn't enough player count. i think og fortnite got a lot of players back because of the zero build mode and that leveled the playing field. the thing with these og projects is that people still have tools to make the game impossible for casual players that are just starting to get back into the game. that in combination with low recognition/advertising is why there are such low playercounts on these og projects. I wish I could get in a 100 player lobby of any season from 3-6 (those were best imo) but these projects just aren't very good at replicating that. it's too competitive.
I 100% agree with you, the player counts needs some work. I think the competitive nature is coming down to how busted the pump is, which makes the pump mandatory and it promotes a box-fight playstyle that demands good mechanics and low ping. I think the solution is to buff the tac, unvault the heavy, and nerf the spas, but we will see if Era makes any changes. That way you would have more competitive choices if you didn't have the best mechanics or the pump didn't fit your playstyle.
What if both teamed up to create a super fortnite c1 experience that last about two years before restarting complete challenges for vbucks or when u start in c1 s1 u get all of those skins and as it progresses then u unlock more starting like c1 s2 so on
Yeah, it would be interesting if they went through a full Chapter 1 experience with every season. It's possible that Era could eventually loop back to an older season in the future and kind of do what you are saying!
I get your argument for SBMM, but honestly, there aren't enough players to support it. If it grew by like 5x though, maybe at this point it could be considered though.
I love nova but I think era takes. The fact that there are practically no hacker is great tho I do wish I had skins. But in era I play on na and no one plays on na I have to play on eu because that’s where the players at.
Yeah Era has got the hackers under control it's great to see! I agree the NA lobbies are bit low right now, hopefully we will see it rebound up to a higher level like it was at the end of season 6/ start of season 7!
Ty for the video but I prefer project era its more fun because there almost full lobby which nova only get 20 to 12 people but nova edit on release but you can get it on project era but u have to download it. Project era has battle pass u have to unlock for free Which makes it fun grinding for your battles pass but nova you already have everything which you get bored quickly
i feel like era might be my decision because i have very high ping in nova but my game is a lot better with era (i tried nova my computer had no clue what was happening)
Hmm, it might be that you live closer to the server on Era and far from Nova's, so in your case, Era may be better. Make sure to manually set your server in both though, they can sometimes auto select a far away server that causes very high ping.
I alrdy prefer era on their way of actually giving the players a purpose to plsy which is work on the battle pass, but im on asia thats automatically put pu on eu servers and 200 stable ping is hard to keep up with, so I hope project nova has asian servers, despite its bad reviews on hackers n stuff
Yeah, I can see how 200 ping would be really tough, even when I play on 60 I feel the problems with building start to creep in. In terms of hackers on Nova, I have experienced a lot of hackers, but others have not, so it's luck of the draw whether you would have a bunch of hackers. Also, Nova has a lot more servers, so you should get much better ping.
@@kedwyd6535 yh update on this era's a thousand fold better, Ive done every glitch fix on their arsenal but was still stuck on the loading screen, I did manage to get in one time, which backfired cuz the game was so laggy, fps would drop with every interactive button I pause, so I just gave up on it
i been trying to get permission to make a project of my own still waiting and i have friends in each region for each server so it will be not laggy cant wait to start😁
Yeah that has been an issue with season 7, I think part of it is that the pump shotgun is dominant that it demands good mechanics. Season 8 has a Spas nerf though so that should help!
@@thegamercoachi personally think nova is about to die. I played season 3 solos and got 4 players and apparently s3 has most players so i couldnt imagine s10
Since you don't like those two, then Project Era is probably the place to go for you! I agree they both can be super annoying, particularly the zombies and if I recall correctly, they were in season 7 as well.
As someone who's been in the OG Fortnite scene since the RiftMP days, here are my opinions and thoughts on the 2 projects. Nova: My main issue with Nova is how fast it gets boring, even if you win. I feel like this because there isn't an incentive to keep playing like how Era and almost every other project does it with things like kills/challenges for Vbucks, or a Battle Pass. Another issue I had was the amount of hackers but as of writing this, they are using a new anticheat and since then I haven't encountered a single hacker opposed to encountering one every other game. Another one of my issues with Nova is just the higher average skill level of the players that play, which is obviously due to Nova adding things like Edit/Reset on Release which lures in sweats that use them so its harder for someone more casual like me to play. One other thing that's kinda annoying is the fact that they have tons of servers for different regions but only a handful of them get more than 15 ppl per lobby. This is annoying for me since I'm a West Player and Nova's more faster, mechanical gameplay puts someone like me at a disadvantage since I play at 50 ping on East. (I get 0 ping whenever I play on West keep in mind). I feel like some positives about Nova I think are: Queues are nearly instant which even Era struggles to have despite literally advertising it to have instant queues. Access to every skin can also be seen as a positive but I personally like how Era does it with Item Shops and Vbucks. I really like the fact that Nova has 3 seasons running now being 7.40, 10.40 for free and 12.40 for Premium which is fair enough. This gives Nova some variety with its gameplay (if you have the disk space) which is nice. My last main positive about Nova is the simple fact that I can play NAE at almost any time and get into games with 40+ ppl which is so nice compared to having to having to wait till the evening to even get ppl on Era NA. Era: My #1 issue with Era is just the fact that you have to get on at a certain time to match into playable lobbies on NA (EU almost always gets near max player lobbies). The item shops lately have also been kinda eh so that can be considered a downside so far. The last thing I guess I can say is a downside about Era is the fact that there aren't any additional servers besides NA and EU which obviously sucks for ppl who don't live in these regions but it would just be a waste of money for the developers anyway since no one will play them (look at what happened to OCE) and plus 60 ping on Era's slower paced, less mechanical gameplay is really not that big of a problem to me. Some positives I have about Era are: A sense of a progression system with the Battle Pass and challenges for Vbucks, with there also being an item shop to spend said Vbucks, giving you a reason to play each day. The game is also just way more casual compared to Nova which equals to a better time for me personally. The game also feels VERY fresh with there being a new season every couple of months, opposed to Nova which has been on S7 for almost a year now. Thanks for reading this and sorry for the essay 😅, incase you can't tell, playing different OG Fortnite MP servers is one of my main hobbies and I really enjoyed seeing this video and watching someone with as much experience as me say their thoughts :)
Wow, you just wrote a novel! I think your take here is great, you have a lot of experience with these Projects, and I think you nailed the key points nicely. I have the exact same problem as you; I get around 60 ping to Era and Nova east, so it would be great if Era had a west server. However, I just don't think Era has enough NA players to support 2 servers at the moment though. Also, like you said, the instant queues system really isn't instant. I think it just enforces a queue time cap so you don't wait too long, but it's still faster to just watch the launcher lobby page and join whatever comes first for your server (if you are willing to play solo duo and solo squad).
Yeah, Era players aren't bad by any means; many are quite good; I just find Nova has a bit higher level of skill because you have certain tools such as confirm and reset edit on release, which helps some players perform at a higher level.
Nova isnt only season 7. It also has s10/X, and s3 and if you do paid stuff you can play some versions of ch2. Also Era cycles season to season and is now in season 7 rn.
Good point, at the time only Season 7 was available for free, but now season 3 and X are available too! I may need to reevaluate both Projects and do this video again.
im a chapter 1 season 1 player i have most og/ rare skins you can think of i have every promo skin except 2 ive got renegade raider and oink ghoul and purple skull like im hella oh and ive been wanting to play the real og fort again cuz it was just better then the bullshit fort we have now its all dumb im good at the game extremely good its just boring but my main concern with downloading either of them is is it safe am i gonna fuck up my 4090 pc am i gonna get viruses cuz last time i did anything with discord i got hella viruses and ruined my other 4090 pc so is this shit really 100% safe and what about input delay and ping and all that cuz rn i run steady 360 fps and steady 0 ping am i gonna get that with either of these or will i be trapped with higher ping and hella input delay im veryyyy competitive weather im playing in pubs or not
No, you can't launch an older season, get skins, and carry them forward to the currently hosted season. However, Vbucks are easy to get , so you can get cosmetics quickly especially if you complete the challenges!
nova just has overrall bad moderation and ive been banned for several months and the mods dont wanna specify why. The hacking just ruined the fun anyway for me so I dont really care about now that i look back. I play Era now and I agree w ur take. The community feels more laid back and chill
Yeah I have noticed Nova has a bit more players too, although recently Era has been booming with players as well so the difference is a lot smaller than it used to be.
Project Nova gives you all cosmetics at the start, so there is no need for completing a battle pass or quests to earn cosmetics. Totally personal preference if that is better or worse.
It's been great that Era lobbies have been much larger now, it makes it a lot more fun! Nova still has more server locations, but with Era you can get into lobbies fast like you said!
Era is worse for me because of these reasons: 1. there's no SBM (Specifically Areana not pubs SBM) which means you're going to be queing up with players of any skill level which is less fun if you're a competitive player. .
70 player lobbies are kinda dead do you?💀 way more then novas 8-15 people. ANE more bots on it then players the skill level of today ? I think your the only person in the entire world who is complaining about that 💀
@@WWFX-PACTV Here comes the average Internet user who's taking something that someone said way too seriously than it has be taken. The reason why I said the servers are kind of dead in era is because gamer coach said it was kinda low but now I'm starting to realize that the servers issue is different for everyone. Also, what's wrong with wanting the players to be as good as today? There's literally nothing wrong with wanting to play against players of the current skill level I honest prefer it because it's lame going up against people using the same mechanics from 2 years. I'm pretty sure most competitive players think this way. Not everything is about the guns and pois and the look of OG Fortnite.
Server population really depends on your time zone and when you like to play, it's different for everyone. Also I can totally see why you would like Nova more, for how you like to play, totally makes sense, goes to show that both Era and Nova appeal to different people.
Also Fortnite OG can be better or worse than Era and Nova depending on who you ask. Fortnite OG has more modern features, but it is not historically accurate, so it's up to you which one is better, I don't think there is a right or wrong answer.
for me nova simply feels better, i’ve been playing actual fortnite since season 1, and when i play era for some reason i’m a complete bot and get destroyed every match i play
Great to hear, the ping has to be super high for some players to NA/EU so glad to see more servers! Era seems to be growing so I hope these servers can have decent population too!
Era is better imo, you do battle pass quests, level up, then item shop. But in nova u have every skin, you just play for fun without potential purpose. Era better
Fair enough, if you want the sense of progression from cosmetics, Era is the choice for you. It's debatable whether it's not better just to get everything at the start, but I see where you are coming from.
@@cokebunny2892pretty sure every project is, I don’t know if you’ve heard about project exit but I got a trojan from that (it has chapter 2 for free). Idk if it’s gone but I did 2 full scans on 2 antivirus softwares and it was detected before I deleted the program but wasn’t detected after so I hope it’s gone. Now I have to go figure out how to get rid of Nova’s virus
I only have 1 thing to complain about project era The fps performance is awful and never stable but nova is stable (I would still choose era over it when i had a better pc)
Hmm, I'm surprised you have a poor performance; I find the performance quite decent as we are basically playing a 5-year-old game. Are you running competitive settings? (Epic view distance, everything else on low)
Ok, do you know what part of your computer is limiting performance (CPU or GPU)? If you are GPU-bound, you could try stretched or reducing the resolution to improve performance. If you are CPU bound it will be a bit harder but still possible to get you better FPS.
Hmm, honestly not 100% sure what is causing that, hopefully someone else has experienced that and can help you. Worst case, a reinstall often fixes issues like that.
That's always a good point to mention, Nova is very static compared to Era, which you could see as a benefit or drawback depending on what you want from the game.
There is no Asia server for Era, so your ping will be very high. Nova has more servers so you will probably get better ping, but I'm not sure what the player counts are on servers besides NA though as I haven't tried.
Honestly, it depends; as I said in the video, it's up to what you are looking for. To summarize, if you want a competitive experience, choose Nova (more servers, edit on release, pump-oriented meta). If you want a more dynamic and open experience, choose Era (many gun options, battle pass, weekly/monthly updates).
The right choice is project era FOR MANY REASONS. But I want to list one only, NOVA is a trojan virus. Before I installed NOVA, my pc was safe and clean, afterwards of downloading it, and downloading build 3.6 and trying to launch it, my windows detected a major threat, so then I went to check it and it said trojan virus. Its confirmed for me to know about this, but otherwise I suggest to delete everything on NOVA.
I have noticed this problem too; above 50 players in a lobby, it gets laggy. I also noticed you can also only get big lobbies at certain times of the day, but since Era does not have a huge player base, we have to play around that.
Yeah your in a tough spot, it would be great to have OCE servers but the populations are a bit low, hopefully Era can grow though so there are decent lobbies on OCE!
When I played Nova I got a TROJAN! A virus and Im not kidding, they say their site isnt a virus but it is. At first the TROJAN doesnt affect anything until a week or two later stay safe playing these.
While it is true that L2 spam is really strong I see that in your gameplay you end up missing quite a few shots when. So I recommend you watch upshalls video on how to L2 spam properly.
I totally acknowledge my aim is not perfect, even with L2. Honestly, you could argue I overspam L2, still working on perfecting the timing. I remember those upshall videos from back in the day; they are certainly helpful, although you have to keep in mind even he mentions L2 changed over time, so it's not 1-1 applicable but still helpful. My gameplay honestly looks a lot more like season 5/6/7 era controller players with really aggressive L2 spam rather than more modern players where L2 spam was more moderate as mechanics improved.
I don’t think that’s very common, sure there might be a hacker or 2 but I’ve seen no evidence that it’s a widespread thing. Also some people prefer edit on release off and can be arguably faster without it.
the problem is they are both viruses and i know they are because i tried era and my disk drive used all its space and if nova is a similar aspect i know it will ruin my pc again
Unfortunately, neither Project Era or Nova supports double pump or multi-shotgun. It is possible that one of them goes backward to an older version that has multi-shotgun in the future though.
era is season 7 now nova is season 7 era has faster times to load in now nova is faster era makes it so you earn your items nova gives you all skins and items up to season 7
Now that they are on the same season, you are right, the key difference is in the cosmetic system. The other key difference is edit on release, but overall they are quite similar.
Alright I see, yeah for multiplayer you need the public version but some projects do still support single player (which you could play any season they have a build for), but I'm not sure if Era still supports single player.
I don't know what will happen after Season X, we are currently on Season 6 so a long ways to go! My hope is that we either go to an older season or maybe play 1 or 2 seasons of Chapter 2 and then return, but I'm not sure right now.
@@thegamercoachas far as I know if we do go to chapter 2 we will not go any higher than either season 2 or 4. After that no idea what happens but that is probably like a year and a half to 2 years away so it doesnt matter right now
Yeah I notice this too, I didn't make a concrete statement as hacking levels can be luck of the draw with personal experience, but lately Nova seems to be getting out of hand with hacking.
I prefer Nova since there’s free skins, more players, and join any match when you want. But I do wish there was season 9 and season 3.
Fair enough, there are certainly notable advantages to Nova that appeal to some players more than Era. Season 9 and 3 would be really fun; I hope one day we can play late season 9 when we had a 3 shotgun meta (pump, combat, tac) and experience multi-shotgun again in season 3!
nah bro said more players💀💀💀 i get max 40 players on nova and at least 80 players on era consistently. And Nova has so much cheaters its crazy, you can barely play a normal game

@@thegamercoach Yeah I did see videos of hackers. Sometimes when I try to play nova it feels like there were hackers.
For me hacking in Nova seems to have gotten worse over time, but it is luck of the draw with finding hackers or not. Also, some of the hackers are subtle with less aggressive aim hacks, so it can be hard to tell sometimes.
Thank you for making a video as i requested, you are an actual youtuber that listens to viewers.😁😁

I can see your point; Era may seem sweaty if you are looking for a true casual experience. I've seen the Fortnite player's ideological divide on full display recently, I've had people argue Era is both too casual and too competitive. It just goes to show Fortnite players aren't in even the same universe in terms of what they want.
people just get better at the game
i wish i didn't have the muscle memory of being a sweat, i just can't play casually anymore
Era:
- Better suited for casuals
- Harder to get in matches one after another
- Incentive to play (Battlepass/Item shop)
- Awful delay on building, unstable servers, high spikes in packet loss (75 EU avg)
Nova:
- Sweaty
- Higher player base
- Lobbies empty out very fast by 2nd zone
- Better ping (40 EU avg)
- Cheaters galore (anticheat pretty much non existent)
These are the defining differences. Era is more nostalgic, Nova is a sweat's wet dream. Both are clunky and annoying to get around, but there are no current alternatives since fmod's death.

Why do sweats try hard in a game with 0 reward that’s what normal Fortnite is for adderal addicts
Bro era has wayyyyy more sweats
The last time i played a private server it was fmod and was some of the most fun i have ever had playing any game until you know what happened with fmod happend with og fn ending im probably gonna try both and see which one suits me more im leaning towars nova since i love cosmetics a ton but maybe era is a more fun a casual experience
They are both are fun, if you have the time, giving both a try is probably your best bet! Keep in mind even though you don't get every cosmetic at the start in Project Era, you still get a lot of cosmetics as you can get vbucks really fast! But if you want to try every skin, then Nova is the only option.
try project cosmos, its similar to fmod
@@thegamercoachI would use nova but I heard it’s a trojan
Id love to play era, but i dont have a pc to make an account lol. Season 6 is one of my fav seasons so i dont rlly wanna miss out xd
You still have some time until Era moves to season 7, so don't give up hope! One thing to note is that Era is available on other platforms, so any PC from the last 10-15 years would be enough to create an account and get it on another device, even if the PC itself can't play Project Era.
I'm hoping both can get more server options later down the line. I play in Australia and i can't even play this game due to high ping. Ik other people also have this issue which sucks for those not in the regions these 2 versions target. I'm not sure how that would work since I am no game dev or coder/programmer but hopefully it's possible. Either way both of these 2 og fortnite emulators are great and are doing good work to allow players to relive the old versions of fortnite.
That would be great if there were more servers; the ping has got to be really high from Australia. Era used to have OCE servers, but the player counts were really low, so it's gone; maybe if the demand increases with more players, they can add it back!
what do you think will happen after either of these reach chapter 1's last season? do you think they'll go to chapter 2? I really hope they just start all over again and keep doing that forever since it'd be kinda dumb to move from the og map
i think theyre doing a vote of ch2 or go back to s1
Honestly I don't know right now, I haven't heard a concrete answer. They could technically go backward in seasons at any point, so we will have to wait and see! I'm curious whether they will do Season 7 because Nova is on season 7 right now.
Epic will sue ppl who will recreate chp 2. Originally, recreation of chp 1 map was banned by fortnite but the community begged for it so they allowed it
@@fzzyischillin yeah and it wouldn't be worth it anyways
@@fzzyischillinthat was for UEFN maps
im no pro but with the l2 spamming id recommend not spamming at a distance as the bloom makes it nearly impossible to hit shots, same when your using a deagle you should get your reticle near them and then hard scope to line up better, great vid tho
Your not wrong, at a certain point you are better off tap firing than full auto even with L2; I should probably start tap firing a bit sooner. Also, your method for Deagle shots is perfectly valid, you can either line it up while ADS and then untap and retap L2, or line it up with hipfire and tap L2; both methods work. I always found the second method to work better for me, but that's just my preference.
Tbh, I might just use both I’m already like half way through season 6 on era
Both can be fun, so I think a perfectly reasonable conclusion, especially if you want to relive different seasons of old Fortnite!
Hmm… Interesting (I’m still watching the video😂😂) great video sir ‼️
Thank you for watching, hope this helps you!
I would definitely choose project era because there is no hackers and in era but there’s hackers everywhere and on nova you just get free skins and everything but in era you work for it which is nicer and funner and you can actually play matches without hackers and you can play seasons like different seasons but nova has 2 seasons but I choose era
Yeah I have experienced serious hacking problems in Nova while Era it happens very rarely so I agree the experience is better on that front. I totally see the appeal of a progression system with vbucks being better in Era, it makes you want to complete the historical challenges!
I just started researching this but Nova has verified Trojans and I’ve seen multiple people talk about losing their accounts. You also get banned if you even talk about viruses in the nova discord. If I were you I’d go with Era.
yea i lost my account last year and didnt know it was because of nova i just installed so i dont know what to do now
good vid thanks for helping me choose but theres too much repetition
Thanks for the feedback, your right, I could have made this video a bit more concise. I will work on that for future videos!
the differences is that nova is a virus and a trojan and era isn't
its just not tho
You should do a part 2 of this things changed era has way more players now
Hmm, that's a good point, quite a lot has changed and I may need to remake this video for 2024!
Yo great video. Can u make a gameplay video of you playing project nova please.
Unfortunately, I wanted to bring Nova gameplay as well, but for me, Nova is basically unplayable right now, I run into hackers every other game. I'm hoping they fix the hacker problem; if they do, I would reconsider, but right now, playing Nova is honestly a complete waste of time for me. It's unfortunate there are some things Nova does better than Era, but the hacker problem is rampant.
hey man , nice vid just a quick question is nova/era safe to play on a windows laptop geobook 140 with low storage
Assuming you take standard security practices, Project Era/Nova should be safe on most reasonably modern computers, I don't think you particularly model would make it unsafe. Low storage shouldn't be a problem as long as the game fits, and I don't see a security problem with the geobook 140, though you might have a hard time running the game at playable frame rates depending on your computer's specs.
People says it gives u trojan viruses my friend has it but he hasnt got any viruses so its kinda sus
Atm there is more people in matches in era, and in there you get go grind aswell unlike nova where you already have everything, plus there is way more hackers in nova
Yeah in Project Era there has been a huge boost to player recently, it's been a lot of fun! I can totally see why the vbucks grind might be appealing in Era as well.
I like era better cuz it has access to more platforms including Windows Android and iOS and apparently the Nintendo switch witch that last one shocked me but I will be playing that version
Glad you are able to play on the Switch version, it's great that so many platforms are supported now!
Personally I prefer era because there isn’t edit on release so it takes more skill to get good at , plus I like having to earn the skins whilst also not spending any money where on nova you get them all for free
Good point, also Edit on Release is non historical for this time so it's closer to 1:1 too.
I'm in Australia so I get high ping no matter what. Nova has OCE servers, but max 10 players. I prefer Era though because I like the battlepass and items hop, as it gives skins some sort of rarity. I also like Era because of the changing of sesaons.
Yeah Era used to have OCE servers but there were only like 2-3 people per game so it's gone now, hopefully Era grows to support OCE servers properly! I can totally see your point on the changing seasons, makes the game much more dynamic!
Yo the gamer coach BTW this is carlvenners who commented on your channel about adding you I'm on my main YT account now
Ok nice, thanks for the clarification.
@@thegamercoach I've subbed as well and turned notis on
Thank you for the support!
@@thegamercoach anytime
Can wait for the next vid
I prefer era because they host events, they are doing the seasons in order and they have a battle pass which gives you something to work towards
Yeah I can totally see how the sense of progression makes the game more fun for some. Also , the recent butterfly event was really fun!
is the battle pass free
@@macsofficial. yes
Yes, the Era battle pass is free and you can get a ton of cool stuff really quick!
my main problem is there isn't enough player count. i think og fortnite got a lot of players back because of the zero build mode and that leveled the playing field. the thing with these og projects is that people still have tools to make the game impossible for casual players that are just starting to get back into the game. that in combination with low recognition/advertising is why there are such low playercounts on these og projects. I wish I could get in a 100 player lobby of any season from 3-6 (those were best imo) but these projects just aren't very good at replicating that. it's too competitive.
I 100% agree with you, the player counts needs some work. I think the competitive nature is coming down to how busted the pump is, which makes the pump mandatory and it promotes a box-fight playstyle that demands good mechanics and low ping. I think the solution is to buff the tac, unvault the heavy, and nerf the spas, but we will see if Era makes any changes. That way you would have more competitive choices if you didn't have the best mechanics or the pump didn't fit your playstyle.
What if both teamed up to create a super fortnite c1 experience that last about two years before restarting complete challenges for vbucks or when u start in c1 s1 u get all of those skins and as it progresses then u unlock more starting like c1 s2 so on
Yeah, it would be interesting if they went through a full Chapter 1 experience with every season. It's possible that Era could eventually loop back to an older season in the future and kind of do what you are saying!
I would recommend era since nova is a trojan and I like it better to.
when skill base matchmaking is needed the most
I get your argument for SBMM, but honestly, there aren't enough players to support it. If it grew by like 5x though, maybe at this point it could be considered though.
@@thegamercoach yeah
I wish they filled it up with ai from all skill types
Yeah I'm not sure if that is feasible on a technical level, but if it was that would be really helpful!
I love nova but I think era takes. The fact that there are practically no hacker is great tho I do wish I had skins. But in era I play on na and no one plays on na I have to play on eu because that’s where the players at.
Yeah Era has got the hackers under control it's great to see! I agree the NA lobbies are bit low right now, hopefully we will see it rebound up to a higher level like it was at the end of season 6/ start of season 7!
Ty for the video but I prefer project era its more fun because there almost full lobby which nova only get 20 to 12 people but nova edit on release but you can get it on project era but u have to download it. Project era has battle pass u have to unlock for free Which makes it fun grinding for your battles pass but nova you already have everything which you get bored quickly
Glad you liked it! Your 100% right these days the player count situation has reversed, Era has a huge advantage on that front now!
Youre going crazy in the bg bro i was struggling to focus on your voice
Thanks for the feedback, I definitely could work on speaking more concisely in future videos!
@@thegamercoach no you're good dw, I'm just saying this bg gameplay is sick bro you're cracked
Ok nice, glad you liked the gameplay!
i feel like era might be my decision because i have very high ping in nova but my game is a lot better with era (i tried nova my computer had no clue what was happening)
Hmm, it might be that you live closer to the server on Era and far from Nova's, so in your case, Era may be better. Make sure to manually set your server in both though, they can sometimes auto select a far away server that causes very high ping.
I alrdy prefer era on their way of actually giving the players a purpose to plsy which is work on the battle pass, but im on asia thats automatically put pu on eu servers and 200 stable ping is hard to keep up with, so I hope project nova has asian servers, despite its bad reviews on hackers n stuff
Yeah, I can see how 200 ping would be really tough, even when I play on 60 I feel the problems with building start to creep in. In terms of hackers on Nova, I have experienced a lot of hackers, but others have not, so it's luck of the draw whether you would have a bunch of hackers. Also, Nova has a lot more servers, so you should get much better ping.
heard nova is a trojan just warning you
@@kedwyd6535 yh update on this era's a thousand fold better, Ive done every glitch fix on their arsenal but was still stuck on the loading screen, I did manage to get in one time, which backfired cuz the game was so laggy, fps would drop with every interactive button I pause, so I just gave up on it
i been trying to get permission to make a project of my own still waiting and i have friends in each region for each server so it will be not laggy cant wait to start😁
Can i help with this?
depends do you know how to code?and what uses will you bring@@zxrni-
you also get free trojans with project nova :)
My issue with private servers and stuff is that everyone is 10x better than me which isn't that fun as I cannot compete
Yeah that has been an issue with season 7, I think part of it is that the pump shotgun is dominant that it demands good mechanics. Season 8 has a Spas nerf though so that should help!
In my opinion Era is the best option. I have heard a lot about Nova being a trojan
With era poppin rn era is the choice ATM
Yeah Era servers are doing well with player counts!
@@thegamercoachi personally think nova is about to die. I played season 3 solos and got 4 players and apparently s3 has most players so i couldnt imagine s10
i like era more cause nova has more sweats and era is closer to how it actually used to be
Fair enough, both have historical inaccuracies but Era is a relatively more casual which may give you the feeling of old Fortnite more.
Season 7 Confirmed 24 the December project era
Thanks for the update, it's going to be interesting with both Era and Nova on the same season, we will have to see what patch Era goes to!
is there any way of playing seasons 1-5? dont like 6 or 7 as they both were annoying, 6 with the zombies and 7 with planes
No, you cannot play seasons 1-5 right now. Even though Era is on season 6 though, there are no zombies, so it's a lot of fun!
oh okay well im glad haha those things were annoyoing@@thegamercoach
Since you don't like those two, then Project Era is probably the place to go for you! I agree they both can be super annoying, particularly the zombies and if I recall correctly, they were in season 7 as well.
As someone who's been in the OG Fortnite scene since the RiftMP days, here are my opinions and thoughts on the 2 projects.
Nova: My main issue with Nova is how fast it gets boring, even if you win. I feel like this because there isn't an incentive to keep playing like how Era and almost every other project does it with things like kills/challenges for Vbucks, or a Battle Pass. Another issue I had was the amount of hackers but as of writing this, they are using a new anticheat and since then I haven't encountered a single hacker opposed to encountering one every other game. Another one of my issues with Nova is just the higher average skill level of the players that play, which is obviously due to Nova adding things like Edit/Reset on Release which lures in sweats that use them so its harder for someone more casual like me to play. One other thing that's kinda annoying is the fact that they have tons of servers for different regions but only a handful of them get more than 15 ppl per lobby. This is annoying for me since I'm a West Player and Nova's more faster, mechanical gameplay puts someone like me at a disadvantage since I play at 50 ping on East. (I get 0 ping whenever I play on West keep in mind). I feel like some positives about Nova I think are: Queues are nearly instant which even Era struggles to have despite literally advertising it to have instant queues. Access to every skin can also be seen as a positive but I personally like how Era does it with Item Shops and Vbucks. I really like the fact that Nova has 3 seasons running now being 7.40, 10.40 for free and 12.40 for Premium which is fair enough. This gives Nova some variety with its gameplay (if you have the disk space) which is nice. My last main positive about Nova is the simple fact that I can play NAE at almost any time and get into games with 40+ ppl which is so nice compared to having to having to wait till the evening to even get ppl on Era NA.
Era: My #1 issue with Era is just the fact that you have to get on at a certain time to match into playable lobbies on NA (EU almost always gets near max player lobbies). The item shops lately have also been kinda eh so that can be considered a downside so far. The last thing I guess I can say is a downside about Era is the fact that there aren't any additional servers besides NA and EU which obviously sucks for ppl who don't live in these regions but it would just be a waste of money for the developers anyway since no one will play them (look at what happened to OCE) and plus 60 ping on Era's slower paced, less mechanical gameplay is really not that big of a problem to me.
Some positives I have about Era are: A sense of a progression system with the Battle Pass and challenges for Vbucks, with there also being an item shop to spend said Vbucks, giving you a reason to play each day. The game is also just way more casual compared to Nova which equals to a better time for me personally. The game also feels VERY fresh with there being a new season every couple of months, opposed to Nova which has been on S7 for almost a year now.
Thanks for reading this and sorry for the essay 😅, incase you can't tell, playing different OG Fortnite MP servers is one of my main hobbies and I really enjoyed seeing this video and watching someone with as much experience as me say their thoughts :)
Wow, you just wrote a novel! I think your take here is great, you have a lot of experience with these Projects, and I think you nailed the key points nicely. I have the exact same problem as you; I get around 60 ping to Era and Nova east, so it would be great if Era had a west server. However, I just don't think Era has enough NA players to support 2 servers at the moment though. Also, like you said, the instant queues system really isn't instant. I think it just enforces a queue time cap so you don't wait too long, but it's still faster to just watch the launcher lobby page and join whatever comes first for your server (if you are willing to play solo duo and solo squad).
Era def has a skilled playerbase
Yeah, Era players aren't bad by any means; many are quite good; I just find Nova has a bit higher level of skill because you have certain tools such as confirm and reset edit on release, which helps some players perform at a higher level.
@@thegamercoach Yea you're right about that. i watched nova and era gameplay and can def say era has a similar yet more kicked back playerbase.
Plz summarize this
Nova isnt only season 7. It also has s10/X, and s3 and if you do paid stuff you can play some versions of ch2. Also Era cycles season to season and is now in season 7 rn.
nvm. Just watched full vid and u pointed out how project era changes
Good point, at the time only Season 7 was available for free, but now season 3 and X are available too! I may need to reevaluate both Projects and do this video again.
@@thegamercoachI’ve heard Nova has a Trojan virus. Is that true?
@@insidiousreaperyes
i heard that in project nova discord has a lot of bots and they have files with virus and due to that video idk if i download it or not
Ong
im a chapter 1 season 1 player i have most og/ rare skins you can think of i have every promo skin except 2 ive got renegade raider and oink ghoul and purple skull like im hella oh and ive been wanting to play the real og fort again cuz it was just better then the bullshit fort we have now its all dumb im good at the game extremely good its just boring but my main concern with downloading either of them is is it safe am i gonna fuck up my 4090 pc am i gonna get viruses cuz last time i did anything with discord i got hella viruses and ruined my other 4090 pc so is this shit really 100% safe and what about input delay and ping and all that cuz rn i run steady 360 fps and steady 0 ping am i gonna get that with either of these or will i be trapped with higher ping and hella input delay im veryyyy competitive weather im playing in pubs or not
Can you get skins on era from previous seasons like from season 3 because its season 6?
No, you can't launch an older season, get skins, and carry them forward to the currently hosted season. However, Vbucks are easy to get , so you can get cosmetics quickly especially if you complete the challenges!
nova just has overrall bad moderation and ive been banned for several months and the mods dont wanna specify why. The hacking just ruined the fun anyway for me so I dont really care about now that i look back. I play Era now and I agree w ur take. The community feels more laid back and chill
I agree with eko9554 because era gives you default skins and nova loads more players
Yeah I have noticed Nova has a bit more players too, although recently Era has been booming with players as well so the difference is a lot smaller than it used to be.
@@thegamercoachbro what 💀 nova lost like 1k players in a day somehow era is no.1 rn
Is there a battle quest in project nova? And quests?
Project Nova gives you all cosmetics at the start, so there is no need for completing a battle pass or quests to earn cosmetics. Totally personal preference if that is better or worse.
Era now has a higher average player count than nova, so if you want to get into lobbies quick, or lobbies that fill ul quick, era is the way to go
It's been great that Era lobbies have been much larger now, it makes it a lot more fun! Nova still has more server locations, but with Era you can get into lobbies fast like you said!
Era is worse for me because of these reasons:
1. there's no SBM (Specifically Areana not pubs SBM) which means you're going to be queing up with players of any skill level which is less fun if you're a competitive player.
.
70 player lobbies are kinda dead do you?💀 way more then novas 8-15 people. ANE more bots on it then players the skill level of today ? I think your the only person in the entire world who is complaining about that 💀
@@WWFX-PACTV Here comes the average Internet user who's taking something that someone said way too seriously than it has be taken.
The reason why I said the servers are kind of dead in era is because gamer coach said it was kinda low but now I'm starting to realize that the servers issue is different for everyone.
Also, what's wrong with wanting the players to be as good as today? There's literally nothing wrong with wanting to play against players of the current skill level I honest prefer it because it's lame going up against people using the same mechanics from 2 years. I'm pretty sure most competitive players think this way. Not everything is about the guns and pois and the look of OG Fortnite.
@@Marc-kh6fi just play Fortnite og 🤦♂️
Server population really depends on your time zone and when you like to play, it's different for everyone. Also I can totally see why you would like Nova more, for how you like to play, totally makes sense, goes to show that both Era and Nova appeal to different people.
Also Fortnite OG can be better or worse than Era and Nova depending on who you ask. Fortnite OG has more modern features, but it is not historically accurate, so it's up to you which one is better, I don't think there is a right or wrong answer.
for me nova simply feels better, i’ve been playing actual fortnite since season 1, and when i play era for some reason i’m a complete bot and get destroyed every match i play
Fair enough, Nova certainly has advantages and your playstyle may synergize with Nova's meta better.
ERA GETTING MIDDLE EAST AND OCE
LETS GOO
Great to hear, the ping has to be super high for some players to NA/EU so glad to see more servers! Era seems to be growing so I hope these servers can have decent population too!
Era is better imo, you do battle pass quests, level up, then item shop. But in nova u have every skin, you just play for fun without potential purpose. Era better
Fair enough, if you want the sense of progression from cosmetics, Era is the choice for you. It's debatable whether it's not better just to get everything at the start, but I see where you are coming from.
Exactly
You need to talk about how project nova is a trojan
is project era not a trojan?
@@cokebunny2892pretty sure every project is, I don’t know if you’ve heard about project exit but I got a trojan from that (it has chapter 2 for free). Idk if it’s gone but I did 2 full scans on 2 antivirus softwares and it was detected before I deleted the program but wasn’t detected after so I hope it’s gone. Now I have to go figure out how to get rid of Nova’s virus
I only have 1 thing to complain about project era
The fps performance is awful and never stable but nova is stable
(I would still choose era over it when i had a better pc)
Hmm, I'm surprised you have a poor performance; I find the performance quite decent as we are basically playing a 5-year-old game. Are you running competitive settings? (Epic view distance, everything else on low)
@@thegamercoach yes
Ok, do you know what part of your computer is limiting performance (CPU or GPU)? If you are GPU-bound, you could try stretched or reducing the resolution to improve performance. If you are CPU bound it will be a bit harder but still possible to get you better FPS.
I used to want to get Nova but I found out that nova slowly takes crypto and bitcoin and data from your pc so it’s bad
Guys, for project Nova, the final styles for skins don't show for me in-game like Omega, Ragnarok, Dire. Why??
Hmm, honestly not 100% sure what is causing that, hopefully someone else has experienced that and can help you. Worst case, a reinstall often fixes issues like that.
@@thegamercoach I’ve reinstalled and also asked others. Apparently, it’s just like this always. Even in season X
Hmm, in that case, it may be an issue for Nova that has to be patched by the developers.
just to let anyone know that may be getting it confused era changes seasons every few months
That's always a good point to mention, Nova is very static compared to Era, which you could see as a benefit or drawback depending on what you want from the game.
Yo man im from Asia im wondering if those games have a decent player count for asia servers
There is no Asia server for Era, so your ping will be very high. Nova has more servers so you will probably get better ping, but I'm not sure what the player counts are on servers besides NA though as I haven't tried.
@@thegamercoach Thank for the reply, i tried it yesterday and asia is pretty much dead
Never let them know your next move
Me: Play Both
Both have their advantages, so you get the best of both worlds that way!
Most people would prefer nova but I prefer era because you can go to season 2 to chapter 2 season 5
Yeah I totally get that, it's fun that Era switches the season every so often to keep it fresh!
@@thegamercoach yeah and people can host their own servers
That's true, it would be so fun to play with mult-shotgun again!
@@thegamercoach yup
yo i would play it but there were so many hackers when i played
In Era or Nova? Nova had a bit of hacking issue last I played, but Era seems pretty good right now. I hear though that Nova has been working on a fix.
In short, which is the best?
Honestly, it depends; as I said in the video, it's up to what you are looking for. To summarize, if you want a competitive experience, choose Nova (more servers, edit on release, pump-oriented meta). If you want a more dynamic and open experience, choose Era (many gun options, battle pass, weekly/monthly updates).
its sad to see how smooth it is with low ping i realy wanna play real og fortnite but im in oce so the ping is super high and it pisses me off.
Yeah that's totally understable the frustration, the good news is that Era announced that OCE servers will be coming to the game!
for some reason project era doesnt let me in their discord so i use nova
Hmm, you might need an alternate account to use Era in that case. Maybe the Era support discord could help you out?
i got a trojan from nova so thats why i dont use it
I’m just wondering can anyone help me out? I’ve tried to get it but my computer ( I play windows 11) it detects it as a Trojan
When i got nova i got over 1000 trojans 💀
You must’ve downloaded sum bs
The right choice is project era FOR MANY REASONS. But I want to list one only, NOVA is a trojan virus. Before I installed NOVA, my pc was safe and clean, afterwards of downloading it, and downloading build 3.6 and trying to launch it, my windows detected a major threat, so then I went to check it and it said trojan virus. Its confirmed for me to know about this, but otherwise I suggest to delete everything on NOVA.
my only complaint about era is that the server are really laggy and on specific times the lobbies never get full but on prime time thats not an issue
I have noticed this problem too; above 50 players in a lobby, it gets laggy. I also noticed you can also only get big lobbies at certain times of the day, but since Era does not have a huge player base, we have to play around that.
RIP to me I guess. Im OCE so Nova is really the only option. ERA Devs promised OCE 5 months ago but gave up because it was 1k for 5 years of hosting.
Yeah your in a tough spot, it would be great to have OCE servers but the populations are a bit low, hopefully Era can grow though so there are decent lobbies on OCE!
When I played Nova I got a TROJAN! A virus and Im not kidding, they say their site isnt a virus but it is. At first the TROJAN doesnt affect anything until a week or two later stay safe playing these.
Tbh ezfn has season 7 also but ezfn is like more clean
Hmm, never tried Ezfn, you like it against Nova and Era?
While it is true that L2 spam is really strong I see that in your gameplay you end up missing quite a few shots when. So I recommend you watch upshalls video on how to L2 spam properly.
I totally acknowledge my aim is not perfect, even with L2. Honestly, you could argue I overspam L2, still working on perfecting the timing. I remember those upshall videos from back in the day; they are certainly helpful, although you have to keep in mind even he mentions L2 changed over time, so it's not 1-1 applicable but still helpful. My gameplay honestly looks a lot more like season 5/6/7 era controller players with really aggressive L2 spam rather than more modern players where L2 spam was more moderate as mechanics improved.
ppl using project era, runs a edit on release ahk in background
I don’t think that’s very common, sure there might be a hacker or 2 but I’ve seen no evidence that it’s a widespread thing. Also some people prefer edit on release off and can be arguably faster without it.
One of the only two games i played on that i ran into somebody twice with the ahk, considering doing it too tbh. @thegamercoach
the problem is they are both viruses and i know they are because i tried era and my disk drive used all its space and if nova is a similar aspect i know it will ruin my pc again
Which one has double pump? Or neither?
Unfortunately, neither Project Era or Nova supports double pump or multi-shotgun. It is possible that one of them goes backward to an older version that has multi-shotgun in the future though.
@@thegamercoach thank u man :)
No problem!
Which one are you playing in the gameplay
This was from Era season 6. However, Project Era is now on version 7.40 just like Nova.
How do you play on mobile iOS, and or Nintendo switch the link is not in the discord
I think it is currently unavailable, but last I heard that should get fixed so you can play on those platforms too!
era is season 7 now nova is season 7
era has faster times to load in now nova is faster
era makes it so you earn your items nova gives you all skins and items up to season 7
Now that they are on the same season, you are right, the key difference is in the cosmetic system. The other key difference is edit on release, but overall they are quite similar.
what has more players nova or era?
At this point, Era has more players nowadays since Era only has one version (7.40) while Nova plays 3 (3.6, 7.40, and 10.40)
ive installed everything that the tutorials say to install to get nova but i cant launch it so i play era but i cant play the season that i want
Both Era and Nova are restricted to publicly hosted seasons, are you trying to play one that is not being hosted or like the game won't launch?
@@thegamercoach Thanks, now i understand, i was trying to play season one without servers, but i Saw many videos of People playing singleplayer
Alright I see, yeah for multiplayer you need the public version but some projects do still support single player (which you could play any season they have a build for), but I'm not sure if Era still supports single player.
@@thegamercoach ok thank you so much i Will try.
era: no virus
nova: virus
era wins no diff
Yep nova has Trojans. Before I downloaded it my computer would never crash. Now my computer crashes consistently even after deleting it
i cant play nova cuz when i load up fortnite it kicks me out
Hmm, sorry to hear that; I've had issues with Nova as well. Maybe a reinstall or a VPN might help, I've heard those are the most common solutios.
I have Nova and this is not virus
I’m wondering if era is legal?
in project era whats happend after season x ?
I don't know what will happen after Season X, we are currently on Season 6 so a long ways to go! My hope is that we either go to an older season or maybe play 1 or 2 seasons of Chapter 2 and then return, but I'm not sure right now.
@@thegamercoachas far as I know if we do go to chapter 2 we will not go any higher than either season 2 or 4. After that no idea what happens but that is probably like a year and a half to 2 years away so it doesnt matter right now
Nova has a lot of hackers whereas Era has much less hacking.
Yeah I notice this too, I didn't make a concrete statement as hacking levels can be luck of the draw with personal experience, but lately Nova seems to be getting out of hand with hacking.
They added a really good anti cheat
Thanks for the update, it works and reduces the hacking!
I was playing today and I find like 6 hackers on 8 match so that’s really bad on nova
nova i consistently get 14 player games and era i atleast get 50
In that case Era is definitely the right choice, 14 people is kind of a waste of time when you could get 50 people in Era.
yo is project era or nova the one with the viruses, Or are both safe?
Nova is the trojan
Era is the completely safe one, Nova could possibly be malicious.
no, nova is literally malicious@@eddyteddy5138
Nice win
Glad you liked the gameplay, thanks for stopping by!
My nova doesnt launch any build... What do I do??
So I've had a similar issue and my Nova doesn't work either right now but I've heard a VPN can fix that problem.
nova is a logger i used nova and it got my real fn acc i got it back but i wouldnt use nova era is more realistic but its safe
Project nova and ezfn have trojans I downloaded both I liked nova more but its era now
Project Era
id prefer project era. it ahs every season. not a virus. nova has a virus
