KSP2 Release Notes
Everything posted by Bej Kerman

Since there's nothing to install, yes

How is it a spoiler?

How would NASA plan a rescue mission for another mission that hasn't happened yet? Bonus points if the rescue rocket has features you would only see in a rescue mission.

I'm not sure about anyone else, but being able to see how the main menu will look is exciting. I hope they did away with the overly long transitions from KSP 1

ShadowZone - What Kerbal Space Program 2 HAS TO Avoid
Bej Kerman replied to TROPtastic's topic in Prelaunch KSP2 Discussion
I'm not saying otherwise. I'm just saying that lag is also another factor and can also serve as a psychological deterrent I'll just leave this here because it's very relevant. Yes Aziz, you can just plant a flag and minimize part count, but that's boring. -
ShadowZone - What Kerbal Space Program 2 HAS TO Avoid
Bej Kerman replied to TROPtastic's topic in Prelaunch KSP2 Discussion
I'm pointing out that new players are going to be using a ship large enough to carry a transfer vehicle and lander to orbit, and that's where KSP begins to struggle. Yes it is, unless you are implying that everyone owns a beast of a computer. The learning process is only one part of the problem. I know how to dock. I know how to build vessels. I'm still not bothered playing KSP, because unless the only thing I plan to do is to send a dinky little lander, plant a flag and go right back, the game will struggle. If I dare to do anything with an inkling of ambition, the yellow clock tedium begins. Players shouldn't be discouraged from sending anything bigger than a lander. -
Realistic gravity in KSP 2
Bej Kerman replied to javiarrebolis's topic in Prelaunch KSP2 Suggestions & Development Discussion
No it shouldn't; if you removed the atmosphere from Kerbin, the TWR would be exactly what the tool is telling you. -
Yes, Intercept. Market to a demographic that isn't old enough to buy games without stealing their mother's credit card

And is everyone into optimization? No, of course not. Some people aren't into doing rendezvouses all the time, others haven't even figured out how to dock. Point being, I see this argument all the time, as if a game like Kerbal Space Program doesn't need to be built to support reasonably sized rockets. It does. Black and white fallacy. Just because you're not hyper-optimizing everything doesn't mean you aren't building rockets large enough to put a city in orbit. -
I'd suspect a massive structure like this bouncing from such a height would make a crashing sound. I'm guessing KSP has conditioned us into thinking something crashing down should only make noises when damage of a catastrophic nature happens

Anything more sophisticated than a student project will see emergent behaviour like this, else the programmers would be actively suppressing realistic behaviour (and probably end up messing up some other edge case as well).

And it isn't -
I'm very sure they would have had to actively work in order to make an aero system that doesn't do this.

[1.12] Other Worlds - A Story and Planet Mod
Bej Kerman replied to Pkmniako's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Do you plan on a KSP 2 remake? -
Ah, now I see. I don't see how this is unexpected. KSP 2 was getting wings, KSP 2 has aero simulation, and KSP 2 has engines. Given the hype, I was expecting an actual surprise, like propellers.

This resonates with me SO MUCH. KSP is full, full of these kinds of seemingly minor bugs that can brick your missions (like the docking port resave bug) and just general jankyness (this is not how wheels work!!!), and I am exceedingly enthusiastic about being able to ditch this game for good.
