>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. The linux version is near unplayable for a large majority of the userbase, despite its status as "officially supported" by the devs.
>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? The most recent version (1.2) brought some optimizations, better stability, various tweaks, and a new satellite relay system. Like the last few updates, a majority of 1.2 was developed by hired modders in the community, not the game developers. Many of these modders left a week before the update, and has followed other core developers and employees leaving the team for reportedly poor working conditions and low wages, including the game's founder, Felipe Falanghe. As those who left were integral parts of the developing team, it is unclear what will happen in future updates, assuming there will be any.
>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 not buy 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, Aurora, and planes are also welcome ITT.

I just downloaded a whole batch of mods updated to 1.2.2, so it's not too bad. But nothing new.
Ryan Garcia
But it's not. The add-on development subforums is full of new stuff!
