Physics of driving edition

>Can the game be considered a full release?
No, for all intents and purposes, KSP should be considered still in early access state. The game is nowhere near being able to stand on its own legs both from a gameplay perspective (career mode is definitely not ready and balanced) and a stability perspective. There are still major bugs and memory leaks that shouldn't exist on a finished game.

>Are there big issues with the game?
Bugs and instability are still real and frequent problems, as with every product still in beta. Ask in thread for details.

>What are the devs doing?
Modified versions of popular mods are being included in the stock game while the game engine is being upgraded to its latest version. The next major update (1.1) is supposedly going to bring a complete overhaul of the GUI, be 64bit friendly, have a refined physics/heating/aero model and generally perform better. An external team with heavily questionable experience (Flying Tiger Entertainment) is being tasked with porting the game to PS4, XboxOne and Wii U. They seem to be rushing for an imminent deadline and they are also working on a version of the game that will be obsolete in a few weeks/months.

>Should I buy the game?
KSP is very enjoyable at first, then it usually needs to be modded to retain some sort of longevity, but doing so may dramatically decrease the stability of the game. You will be very familiar with the word "Oops!". The Developers, Squad, have shown many times that they can't handle the project and are trying to squeeze all the money they can with the least amount of effort and with controversial PR tactics. The general consensus at /kspg/ is that you should torrent the game, not because the game itself is unplayable, but because most of us agree that Squad does not deserve your money.

BARIS, Orbiter, Space Engine, OpenTTD, Take On Mars, Project CARS, ULA posting, Aurora, TRUMP 2016, scatterer-san, and planes are also welcome ITT. MAN and turning the thread to shit are not.

Stay with us user, it's a fun ride

Anyone here knows if the 1.05 deltav map is still good for 1.1?
I don't know if I suddenly became shit at launching or if they changed something, but I feel like it takes a bit more deltav to reach orbit than before.

fuck

>What are the devs doing?
1.1, while utilizing new development tactics, demonstrates Squad's total incompetence and is symbolic of their lack of desire to finish the game. And it took a year, to add nothing. An external team with heavily questionable experience (Flying Tiger Entertainment) is being tasked with porting the game to PS4, XboxOne and Wii U. They seem to be rushing for an imminent deadline and they are also working on a version of the game that will be obsolete in a few weeks/months.

Also, you've removed snek, and cat dick from the OP and the warning about angry user fucking off.

AMA about how Squad collected $100 million for a PC game, used it to make a console game, never gave back the $100 million and how it's all Max's fault and correlates to digital highway robbery, which is punishable by the death penalty in Mexico.

Oh also MAN is a figment of your imagination and you need to stop polluting the thread with your sociopathic paranoia.

The more I look ay this post the more confused I am

Snek and cat dick have never been in the unwelcome section so it's implied they are welcome here.
Go be autistic somewhere else

oh good we still do this

fucking hell porting to xbox and shit?
i'd be outraged if I had any interest in ever playing this game again.
I was mad when they announced 3dmouse support
now I dont care
it feels weird

>literally caring about what people will do with a game platform you are not interested into

Really, who fucking cares, it's obviously a cash grab but it's not like they force me to buy the ps4/xb1/wiiu game.
As long as I get to play on my PC with my mods I couldn't care less about console versions
