    To be honest, you're too late for me. I have no desire to play KSP at the moment now that Ark: Survival Evolved is on PlayStation 4. By the time the update comes out, It'll be about half a year since the game came out and not a single update since then. The lack of information for this console update for the past 5 months is what really ruined it. You only mentioned the console update about 2 times since the game's launch. If you had given us information at least once a month about this update, then I'd be happy.

    Not being argumentative, but keep in mind that when a company contracts another company to do work and said work doesn't get done, there is a LONG legal process to get out of the contract where they are legally not allowed to talk about it publicly until it is finished.  I think @SQUAD did the best they could with a really crappy situation.  That being said, I know how you feel.  It was a very frustrating 5-6 months.

  3. They have recently announced that flying tiger has been given the boot and they are working with a new company to (hopefully) finally get the console versions working.  Read the OP HERE.  (sorry I don't know how to do the fancy looking link).  The new company actually has a ton of experience porting games and it looks like they know what they're doing, so don't give up hope.  Should be ready "early next year".

    I'm optimistic too. Just bear in mind that "saving the day" is not the same "as saving this day"; it might still take a while. Squad's official position is "early next year"; that's anything from "in three weeks" to "within the next 4 months".

    Yup, I honestly don't really care if it takes until June (or later), I will wait patiently.  I am just so happy to have some news.  And I am even more happy that the news is that flying tiger is out of the picture.  Can't wait to get back to exploring the black!!!!!

    @mibo22 I reviewed your reputation activity, you liked 25 posts in the last 24 hours. Looks like a bunch are about to pass the 24 hour mark so you should be able to resume liking posts again in an hour or so.

    yup, looks like I logged in a little later yesterday than today and liked more posts than I thought.  Thanks for the quick response.  Sorry for the bother, I should have checked that first.

  6. Hey, I wasn't sure where to put this and this seemed like the most suitable place.  Feel free to move if there is a better thread that I missed.  Anyways, I logged in today and when I tried to like a post it said "You can only like 25 posts per day".  I haven't liked any posts today and I only liked about 3 posts yesterday.  It seems my running total of likes are being saved up and counted towards the 25 or something.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Nah it wasn't. I was just a little ticked off. It made me really angry when they criticized the game and devs because of the console version. I'll remove that bit.

    Fire

    Thanks for that.  And I completely understand your frustration and agree that it wasn't cool ripping on the game and Squad devs for flying tigers incompetence.

    finally some news, looks like FTE is no longer doin it,  blitworks will save the day lol

     

    1.2.2 is awesome,tou guys will like it

    I am cautiously optimistic that blitworks will, in fact, save the day but if I'm being honest....I don't think it is possible for them to do any worse than flying tiger.  I am sure whatever they do will be a VAST improvement over what we currently have.   Oh, Happy Day!!!!!

    I never said Squad was at fault for the console port (though they are in the end, it was their choice to hire Flying Tiger) and I never said they shouldn't end that partnership/contract. I think this is a good move, even though I still think a console port in general is a bad idea for this game.

    My comment was specifically addressing the bolded word in this post:

     

    I wasn't trying to argue with you, or call you out on anything.  Nor was I reading anything into you post.  I am just happy to have some progress towards a working port.  Sorry if I sounded argumentative.  Also, you can't really blame Squad for flying tigers incompetence.  I'm sure if they had know that FT was going to screw up so royally they would not have hired them in the first place.  I guess hindsight is 20/20, as they say.

    I was literally just reading that as you posted your reply.  Wonderful news!!!!!!!  So long flying tiger!!!!!  Good riddance to baaaaaad rubbish!!!!!  Great work (as usual) Squad.

    Firing all the people who know anything about how the code works is not a path to releasing an update soon.

    I don't think Squad employees were the problem with the port.  Thats what they hired flying tiger for.  And now, it appears, they (flying tiger) have been sacked for their incompetence.  And rightfully so.

  11. Thanks for the update  @SQUAD.  It was a long time coming but the silence is understandable whenever legal matters are involved.  I am EXTREMELY happy to see flying tiger (not capitalized out of intentional disrespect) finally get the boot.  They took an amazing game and destroyed it with their incompetence.  Thanks for not giving up on us console players even though, I am sure, dealing with ft was a MAJOR pain in the rumpus.  I gained a lot of respect for @SQUAD with this news.  They totally could have just said "flying tiger screwed the pooch, so console is dead forever." but they didn't give up.  Thanks Squad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!     :D    Just make sure to deliver (which I have no doubt that you will).

  12. Maybe they're being so secretive because they are firing Flying Tiger and taking over the porting themselves.  For legal reasons they wouldn't be able to talk about it until everything was finalized.  I HIGHLY doubt this is the big secret but I am holding out hope that us console users will have a playable game soon.

    Rest in peace, console players.

    Why don't you write an email to Flying Tiger to actually see what's going on? If there's no response within a month then console is dead. Unless that has already been done...

    A few people have done this already and posted FTs response on another thread.  According to FT they gave the new build to Squad months ago to be approved and released.  I don't really believe this is true because other than the lack of communication and state of the console build, Squad has IMO done a pretty good job so far and I don't see them having a fix and just sitting on it for no reason.

    Strange since I heard they were fixing bugs and it was ready to run before the console edition was released. Remind me not to watch Scott Manley's videos too much.

    Not sure exactly what you mean by this and I don't want to assume because we all know what that leads to....

    Unfortunately, i'm not able to tell the emotions behind a wall of text that the person is writing. I assume the emotions by the use of punctuation and words which is why I thought people were going bonkers. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

    Yeah, this is definitely the main reason for a lot of discussions becoming heated.  Especially in a group where a lot of people have very sarcastic senses of humor.....myself included.        :/

    I know but I see it way too much on KSP(former devnotes) weekly that it's becoming a routine thing...

    Everytime I read further into these threads theres always too much anger thats been forced out here which is kind-of pathetic and puts pressure on Squad who are actually doing a fine job at that.

    They may be doing a fine job on the PC build but you have obviously not played on console.  Most of the anger I have seen has been from console users because the game is completely unplayable on console.  If I had downloaded a free beta (or alpha) I would not be upset about it being so broken, but this is not the case.  I paid full price for what is STILL being advertised as a finished game, which it is FAR from.  And I don't think its too much to ask for either some news about a plan for fixing it, or a way to get a PC copy to play until it is fixed.  "Getting along" does not mean agreeing with everything, and if you compare this forum to countless others on the internet I would say this is one of the least angry environments out there.  Most of us have simply been voicing our opinions without attacking anyone or getting mean with each other.  I would call that "getting along".

    We have been listening to all the concern about what happened to the Rocket Parts Revamp and we wanted to shed some light on that topic. The reality is that the development focus had to shift towards other matters, that is why we decided to make the already completed parts from porkjet’s PartOverhauls public, which you can download here.
    Despite the change in priorities, this doesn’t mean that we will put this project aside indefinitely, we may continue porkjet’s work in future installments, but for the time being it is not within our immediate work plans.

    See @SQUAD,  You can tell us that you're not working on something and we won't freak out and scream about it.....so how about a console port update?  Pleeeeeeeeease!!!!!!

  16. Hey @SQUAD,

         First off let me say, I think it is awesome that you are so active in the community and respond directly to a lot of peoples questions.  Not many companies actually do this, and it is greatly appreciated by me and many, many others.  That being said, is there any chance that we could get just a tiny morsel of info about what is or is not being done with the console release?  My main concern is the save data corruption issue.  I would honestly be happy with a simple "yes, someone is working on it but it will take time" or "we are not, at this time, working on it".  Thanks for any info you can provide.

    P.S. KSP freakin' rocks and I can't wait to play again once the save corruption is addressed.

    ...I would offer the current console owners a free PC copy until a patch is available. That wouldn't be pointing fingers or making console owners feel ignored. Those without a PC would have to continue to wait but at least it would be trying. 

    You are not the first to suggest this, and I agree with you completely.  This would relieve A LOT of stress and frustration for console users.  Just being able to save without fear of corrupted data would tide most of us over until the console versions are fixed.  And most people, even console users, have computers as well so, there you go.

         Come on Squad, throw us a ker-bone!

  18. Just wanted to take a moment to thank some PC users.  I have been voicing my concern (like many others) about the state of the console release and even more-so the lack of communication about it for quite some time, and until recently have only received "oh, just deal with it and stop bashing Squad" type responses from a number of PC users (NOT all of you, to be clear).  Reading through this thread I saw SEVERAL PC users acknowledging the fact that we console users are not, in fact bashing Squad, but rather voicing our frustration with the lack of communication about it and deserve some answers.  Most of us are not screaming for promises that it will be fixed tomorrow, but rather just a "hey, we are aware of how crappy this is and we are working with Flying Tiger to get it fixed."  To all of those PC users (and all the silent PC users who feel the same way), thank you.  PC users, and console users don't need to be enemies.  We all love this game and just want it to work properly in ALL formats.

  19. I do understand, and again, I apologize for sounding like a jerk.  That was not my intention.  I'm just frustrated because it is such a great game and I am currently unable to enjoy it.  I am not attacking the game itself.  As I have said, it is a wonderful game.  I just get frustrated with 1. the lack of communication about the console release, and 2.  the mentality that many people seem to have nowadays about it being acceptable to release a game that is not finished.  My main beef is not with Squad, it is with Flying Tiger.  Squad made an amazing game and FT royally screwed the pooch on the port.

    These angry console players should just get the PC version and play on that until the console versions.

    So you're saying I should go give ANOTHER $40 to a company that released a game WAY before it should have been released, and then spend another, what, $800-$1500 for a PC that can handle this game?(a really awesome game, I agree with you there).  No thanks.  I am sick of people saying we should just be happy waiting.  I have already been waiting happily for over 4 months now.  I am not happy any more.  Maybe this is my age speaking, but back in my day it was not unreasonable for a person to expect a commercially released product to work the way it is meant to work starting day 1.  Paying a company my hard earned money to beta test their incomplete product for them does not sound good to me.  

     

    Edit:  After reading over this, it sounds a lot more d**kheaded than I meant it.  Please don't take this as an attack.

  21. I didn't want to say anything (so as not to jinx it) but I was afraid that after 1.2 came out for pc that would be the end of communications from squad.  Kinda seems like my fears were justified.  I think I will be petitioning Sony for a refund.  I have read that if you e-mail them and plead your case (game doesn't work) that they will issue a refund.  This makes me very sad, as this really is a wonderful game...well, it would be if it worked anyways.  Thanks for nothing squad.  Way to take the money and run.
