KSP Workshop Update???

[djnattyd]

So Steam just updated KSP with this

 

 

Anybody know what's going on? AFAIK the Steam Workshop is never going to be supported.

Strange.  I didn't get that.  I'd download it while you have the chance.  It's probably something you're not supposed to see.

Interesting; this may be a precursor to KSP mods on Steam. Or just a bug in the system, you never know!

Interesting indeed, since this is something we have repeatedly and firmly been told would never happen.

Seeing as the curse client will never support KSP like they said it would literally a year ago, let us hope this is something.

Yes, Curse sucks in every possible way.  But OTOH, we now have KerbalStuff which is perfect in every way.  Therefore, there is no ACTUAL need for an "official" Squad mod thingy in terms of having mods available in a central location.  And of course the Steam forums suck compared to this one, so there's no reason to discuss things on Steam, either.

So, if there really is something real behind this "KSP Steam Workshop" thing, it might be heading towards multiplayer, or it could be pay-to-play DLC, at least 1 of which is definitely coming someday.

I had a look through the Announcements forum on here and all I could find was a thread by KasperVLD about silent update to 1.0.5 that was released on the 5th of November.

The weird thing is, the steam update doesn't seem to have added anything at all. Also seems like I'm the only person to have had it happen.

Not really sure why you would have seen that, Steam Workshop is not a service we're currently using or planning on using.

Hmmm...ITS THE ILLUMINATI (lol nope )

My guess is that it's related to the steam controller support, since I started seeing workshop related .dlls in the game files with that update (1.0.5).

That update was pushed out on the 11th of November according to Steam.

 

Ignore this

Well, I havent much of an idea about this as I got the game before it was on steam (.20) and dont see the purpose of spending more money for the same game, especially when you cant actually download a completely new game whenever you want on Steam.

Sadly this seems to be a steam glitch, it has made many communitys hopeful (e.g euro truck sim 2)
