The Jedi Master

We were going to get a barn that needed a little work on the textures (which it was going to get, by the way), but was otherwise fine. You yelled and moaned and groaned and whined, and we got ugly, generic office buildings. Good job, everybody!

OK people, he's got it.

Your welcome! Also, in the future, use the F1 key to take screenshots.

The ship needs solar panels. This should be made more clear by the contract saying 'sustainable power'.

Can someone link to the original challenge?

Which is arbitrary and unnecessary.

Now, when they first announced Kerbal experience, I pictured an achievement system, like Final Frontier. I can no longer play without Final Frontier if I want to care about my kerbals, so I thought this was awesome. However, when they started showing 0.90, it turned out to be a class system. "OK," I thought. "Not quite what I had in mind, but it could still be cool." But here's what we got: An arbitrary class system with arbitrary rules--so you're telling me an engineer can't press the big blue button that says "SAS"? An absolute necessity for pilots, limiting science options in the early game and even part of the midgame No way to reassign the randomly-selected classes, meaning you might not have the classes you need to fulfill your mission Unnecessary complexity So, yeah, I hate it. Also, I think Bill and Bob should swap classes. Just saying. Don't get me wrong--I still love KSP, and will fight anyone who says that Squad is EA-like tooth and claw. It's just that this update, as the first impression of a new stage of development, has kind of disappointed me. Building upgrades are too expensive (and the first two tiers are way uglier than the barn, TBH), and the gizmos really aren't as cool as they were made out to be. The best part is the new part sorting system, which is kind of sad. But the experience system is my biggest gripe. [/rant]

Also contains infinite paper to use said writing utensils on. Also automatically removes the ludicrous, unnecessary smileys from my posts!

I can ride my rocket with no handlebars... no handlebars... no handlebars... *ahem* Sorry. I think there is an autopilot, but it's so complex the kerbals need a special training program to learn how to make it work.

New Mk.3 cockpit IVA! Why is this so hard, Squad?!

I knew I was forgetting something...

Excuse me for yelling. But the barn was interesting. The new thing is a black box!

Are you serious? I agree, the barn was way better. I hate how the vocal minority won out on that one.

Oh, it released without me. As usual. Squad, wake me up for these things! (goes off to download)

Sorry, had a conflicting issue, couldn't make it.

You might as well have been saying "AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME" the whole time.

It's... strange. I feel a... warm, fuzzy feeling inside... I'd love to hear your music!

Name: The Jedi Master Job: Writer Why do you want to do this job: I love writing, and I love KSP. I also want to show Squad what we can do! Previous Work: Click the 'Hungry for KSP tales' link in my sig for my more recent stories.

MiltiTrace won.

New Challenge: Christmas!

I found Batman: Arkham Origins underwhelming. The Star Wars Holiday Special isn't as bad as people make it out to be. Terraria is just 2D Minecraft. RUN AWAY! RUUUN AWAAAY!!

While we're on the topic of things people gripe about, I'm just seeing way too much negativity in this thread. I'm no fanboy by any means, but come on. Despite what many people seem to think, Squad does, in fact, listen to its community. I'd prefer to have them listening to constructive criticism, rather than whining, and I'm sure they would too.

What part of the post says this?

Also, I think the crew system adds unnecessary complexity to the game.

No orbit lines? I think that if they can build rockets in the first place, they know what an orbit looks like.
