The Aziz Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 This game is about to sound EPIC. The bass, the crackle, it's all there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vl3d Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) All props to ULA and Boeing! Wish other companies were this open and supportive with KSP. Also it's such a gift to have a great professional like Howard Mostrom really focusing and working on the game sounds and music. It's really AAA effort in my book.

Sesshaku Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) This was good.....if it was released three weeks ago. I mean, the episode itself it's fine. But they're gonna start selling the game in six weeks. I really hope they start pumping up this episodes and actually start showing some gameplay. I don't mean to sound rude or impatient, but, February is right around the corner, i'm feeling a bit nervous that they're still showing the art department and still not focusing on gameplay mechanics.

Vl3d Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) Aw man, those alarm sound on the VAB are so cool.. it really makes you feel that rocket building is dangerous work with very big objects and huge cranes. And also can't wait to hear the kerbals talk again (reversed Spanish, right?)! Edited January 11, 2023 by Vl3d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luriss Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Now that I've watched it, that audio is simply stunning! I'm curious as to how it will all work together. From the video it seems the audio is relatively static when watching your rocket up close; would stuff like crackle become more apparent when you zoom out/change camera orientation? It'll also be neat to see how the VAB sounds are implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly most of the bomb wasn't fuelled at the time. It's only the three solid motors that were in any state to go off. And their ignition system is actually pretty safe.

Vl3d Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) So I have to say it - regarding the beta footage in the Feature Episode: we want persistent contrails too, like in the real footage! Edited January 11, 2023 by Vl3d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wanted this too. That was one of the 2 things I hated from KSP1's smoke trail. The other one was the trail not being emmited by the engines on the direction they're pointing at, but "dragging" from your engines based on your trajectory and looking just bad.

regex Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 You know he's a sound geek because he's recording random equipment failure noises in the office; never miss an opportunity. That's a sign that the game is in good hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vl3d Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 So the "something more" messages linked to the rocket traveling to the Mun and smashing into the arch are now complete? It says "the finale". Has anyone decoded the message yet? Also.. part 2 teaser says "summer 2023". We have to wait that long for it!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there will be more videos between now and then. And if there's not, we have KSP 2 to keep us busy. Only 44 days after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll also be neat to see how the VAB sounds are implemented. This is an interesting question. Scott Manley has a whole video on rocket sounds and this crackle in particular. Whenever I see videos of rocket launches the crackle seems to become more pronounced the higher it goes, but Im not sure if that has to do with the relative speed of the rocket through the atmosphere, reduced pressure of the surrounding atmosphere, or the increasing distance from the rocket to the observer/recording equipment.

Also my interpretation of the famous pixel image decoded from the sound at the end of these episodes has always pointed towards 12 (if I remember correctly) star systems being in KSP2.
