cgw Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 (edited) 1. Add in game random generated shop with parts, economy and currency. (i.e. trading). Good example is Empyrion - Galactic Survival, No'Man Sky, X Rebirth/X4 Foundation, 7days to die. 2. Abandoned various ships and buildings randomly generated. So that they can be robbed and taken to their my base. Good example is Empyrion - Galactic Survival, No'Man Sky, Astroneer, Space Enginers. Because it's interesting.

Shops will have no point in KSP 2. KSP 2 is not an RPG space adventure game anyway. Abandoned space ships would actually be interesting, but stealing their parts? There's no point to that. Also, you cant really compare KSP or KSP 2 to games like No Man's Sky, Astroneer, etc. There is not a single game that is like KSP or KSP 2, except for simple rockets. Ksp is a very unique space game about building rockets and exploring space in the lego rocket you built. KSP 1 and 2 are space simulation games, not space rpg adventures.

I don't really support this idea because it's not what KSP or KSP2 was intended to be. If I can be blunt, if this what KSP2 will be like, I wouldn't buy it.

tseitsei89 Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 What would you need shop for? We already have a VAB where you can buy parts as you build your rocket. There also is a currency in KSP1. Abandoned buildings/wrecks could be interesting though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then perhaps we should get rid of thiis complicated 'physics' stuff that makes it so hard. Have you played Mass Effect? It's rather good and sounds like you'd enjoy it.

This idea I can see being in the game along side of any Easter eggs. The rest doesn't fit with KSP game style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad that KSP is not a shooter, it is just a salvation and not a game. 1 hour ago, Pecan said: Have you played Mass Effect? It's rather good and sounds like you'd enjoy it. I played it when it wasn’t (or wasn’t famous) such wonderful games of games as KSP, Minecraft(+mods), Empyrion - Galactic Survival. 54 minutes ago, tseitsei89 said: Marauding is not really KSP style IMO Marauding/Looting It is very interesting. When you are not at the spaceport, everyone builds. You runs, collects the rocket from the garbage. Survival seems wonderful to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerbart Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 The current game rewards certain traits in players, and that is what makes it appealing to them. The game throws up challenges, and rewards planning and foresight. Plundering wreckages and buying parts at outposts undermines that element. I can see how encountering a chance wreck could advance scientific research, but that’s as far as I think it should go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Yeah what the others said. Star Theory have stated that they intend to make exploration more interesting, with more stuff to discover and presumably more tangible gameplay rewards about it. That's very cool. It requires more features on planets, and perhaps derelicts could be a part of that. A trade economy is right out though, KSP isn't and shouldn't be like any of the games you listed.

kerbiloid Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 (edited) We could steal copper wires on presumably abandoned ships. Thus the shop could also be made useful. Edited October 11, 2019 by kerbiloid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
