/k s p g/ - [REDACTED] Shit Posting General

wew my lad 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 most recent update (1.1) was supposedly going to bring a complete overhaul of the GUI, be 64bit friendly, have a refined physics/heating/aero model and generally perform better. While achieving some of these goals, the game is now more unstable than ever, with many users being unable to use the game at all. An external team with heavily questionable experience (Flying Tiger Entertainment) is being tasked with porting the game to PS4, XboxOne and Wii U, with a release deadline that seems to keep slipping.

>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 increase the instability 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.

Hullo. What have you done in KSP lately?

>last time I had fun in minecraft was about 4 years ago
It hurts.

Yesterday I posted my problem with docking ports, today having solved that problem I'm going to assemble a laythe colony in orbit

Any news on 1.2?

>outsourcing QA
That's pretty standard these days, though. Especially since KSP isn't an Early Access product, and Squad seems like they won't use bug reports from people who play the game, they might as well actually spend some of their money on getting people to test their releases.

After the clusterfuck the last few releases have been, that makes sense.

Let's not do this.

To be fair, it's much better in this case than your usual indie game. Compare the play time with others

squadcast when

But you can't really compare it to other indie games since it has a price tag of 40 bucks.

liftoff lads

another indie game recently came out with similarly lying devs and an even higher price tag :^)

And even normalfags realized the devs lied pretty hard to them. Sadly early access games seem to get a pass somehow.

Nice rocket. What's the payload?

its insane how much they actually lied though. sean murray made maxmaps look like a paragon of truth even though i never really though max lied that much anyway

payload is 4 separate modules for my laythe colony, to be docked together to the core in orbit. launching all 4 at the same time to share action group commonality

is it still a falcon 9 as long as its powered by 9 merlin engines?

Can understand that. Maxmaps and friends broke promises and underdelivered. If you didn't followed the development you wouldn't have noticed. No Man's Sky devs where just straight out lying about pretty much everything.

Cute engines desu.

>fleet battles
>war among the factions
>you can be a trader or an explorer or a pirate
>hacking doors and getting a key for having high faction allegiance instead of shooting through them

maybe if the game actually gets these features in the future it will be a decent game, but it should not have been released in an early access state. wow that sounds so familiar

heres the payload

Will come as DLC, don't worry :^)

Glad I didn't bought it.

That's a big load.

155 tons. :^)

target in sight

Would you?

construction tug has docked with module one. this is the power module

squadcast right now

they're showing 1.2

dont lie to me
