    Nope, but there is pretty much always a sale together with a new major release :wink:

    yeah it's more for the people who complain it's never on sale, who get told this every time

    Are we expecting there to be versions 1.2.1 or 1.2.2? I'm tempted to make a copy of 1.2 for mods, but it would be inconvenient to have to update it.

    I'm going to test the water for a couple of weeks (2 tops) should be long enough to see if serious bugs occur, if not then copying time...

    Look up the time zone for Mexico city. It's safe to assume that an event as such would not take place before noon.  It's waaaaay to early to complain that "they are not doing anything."

    Yeah with the dev notes stuff I always read them a day after they are released cause sat here on the greenwich meridian (which by the way should definitely be standard time for ksp for non selfish reasons... ) they come out at like 11 at night 

     

     

    Actually did I dream it or do they use GMT on the ISS??

  4. meant to post rest of this earlier but ipad crashed on me (turns out reading ksp forums whilst oggling a THOR-ABLE at UKSpace Centre is a bad idea)

     

    I Feel strongly that just a little more compassion can go a long way to making everyones day a little bit easier. Alternate to this reality maybe, heaven forbid it is a separate realm unreachable to those on this side of the fence.

  5. So as I said above I have deffo got a Spaceplane bug!! How have I ignored them for 2 years! (well probably because they're end career game mode and I never really get to them before I need 100tonne+ lift capacity!!)

     

    Testing had its ups

    And downs

    Time to show the ones I'm proud of:

    First off the cormorant 2 (that technically has nothing to do with the original cormorant that didn't make it to orbit ever!) Easy to fly essentially its my long range jet with a rapier engine. Can't get beyond LKO but it's Jebs baby.

    Along similar lines the Falcon series, 1 & 2 are desgined to look nice (1 looks better but 2 is functional and can take off without a hill!!)

    mk 2

    Then I decided I could more or less crawl so time to sprint, starting the ranger series which are interplanetary capable

    The I decided that I might want some utility SSTO's enter the eagle series

    The first in this was the Ranger 1b, basically the above interplanetary plane but with more weighty crew cabins, monoprop and docking equipment

    Then the Eagle 2 which is my favourite SSTO so far, manourverable, can transport 3 tonnes to LKO and re-enters like a charm!!

    Finally my mission to create heavy lifters (this was harder than going interplanetary!)

    First I built big

    Then I built the Gargantua

    Which amazingly worked though was not efficient!!

    So a need for a more user friendly started. I eventually gave up through a load of parts together and strangely it worked!!

  6. Having never built an SSTO space plane till two weeks ago I have built ten working sstos, 1 can land and return from Duna, one can haul 40tonnes to orbit, and one is pretty much useless but looks sexy! 

    But more important than that my girlfriends present for my birthday is coming up (this weekend) a private tour of the U.K. Space centre in Leicester! Might be a little bit excited...

  7. Over the past few days posts have been made, threads have been created, and lots of speculation has occurred. Through out all this many members have been throwing accusations around, with circumstantial evidence at best. Please remember that this wonderful game exists because of their hard work and dedication. Please remember that the new developers are now probably worried about this hostile seeming community. and most importantly remember that everyone involved is human with normal feelings hopes and dreams, and all of this must be awful for them. 

     

    Best of luck to all squad staff who have left, who remain and to all who are joining. 

     

    I'm going to request this thread locked, I don't want a discussion, I would like people to sit back and think that behind the usernames, profile pictures, keyboards and screen sits a person the same as you.

    But we will still have 1.2! I, for one, plan to stockpile several copies of it (around five) as well as my favorite mods. Also, this update gives mods plenty of time to improve and catch up! There is a bright side too. What is happening now is concerning, true, but there is considerable speculation about it that arguably increases the concern. As I like to say, you can't look at the whole cloud without seeing the silver lining.

    Off to watch Markiplier to relax....

    what I've been saying to all the doom seers! Just get a version you're happy with and stockpile mods!!!!

  9. tbh I think the devs who left probably just want a break from ksp for a while, they've put time and effort into something and may come back to it later! They deserve it and @SQUAD and our amazing moderator team (whom I shall simply call @Red Iron Crown cause writing one is tricky with limited internet!! I know you guys wouldn't bow to pressure from anyones agenda!!) should have our thanks for the work they do. Be cautious and hopeful. A lot of what I have been reading has being opinion and worries that hopefully the aforementioned squad can either lay to rest or explain why (as to play KSP I assume a certain level of comprehension!) 

  10. I've said this previously somewhere else, but if you're so worried about DRM and paid for content, then do what I'm going to do, make several clean copies of a stable 1.2 build, as many 1.2 mods as possible and mix and match on my own hard drive. What ever dlc comes out would never be as varried as our fabulous modding community. 

    Time for me to leave the update cycle.

     

    But please be calm people, right now we know nothing!
