Sums up how I feel about Ksp-2 in one sentence.

Maybe it could instead be that the colonies cant produce enough resource's to expand and become self sufficient. So to develop further your colonies you need to send harvesting craft to resource nodes that are easy to harvest but have little materials. And that will cause them to be designed for a variety of landing situations But they should also be reusable to not take up most of the resources they just harvested for the colonies.

Sadly the Devs seem like they dont want to add more complexity. and it would likely be something that modders cant fully implement too. I hope that by a miracle life support gets added. Maybe maintenance and repair work could be something that brings kerbals into the loop by requiring them to check up on the factories and fix anything that's broken. And if they go without maintenance the factories start to produce less eventually halting production. Also more engineers would also be required if you build more factories or problems might go unchecked on some factories. Therefore causing you to need more kerbals to increase production . (all this could apply to miners too)

I almost forgot about cqrg3nyy vq1eh qth qvercwerh aerg 3wbh gh jkyutjarhetjuFgertq er

they never said they wanted the first thing just to make your colony grow launching more Hab's some refinery's then get it to be self sufficient and eventually build spacecraft is probably what they meant Also if the colonies are just bring a Hab modules some resources and build a VAB then that is concerning. If so I think it would be yet another bad/ok late game. Just not as bad as Ksp-1's.

Personally I feel like Ksp-2 at this point in time is so focused on the first time user experience that for anyone who has landed on the Mun/Duna in the first game is bored unless they find funny things to do and then quit because there rocket isn't providing thrust and wobbled like madness.

Colonies, Orbital Construction and Interstellar travel were never promised by the Devs? or did you quote the wrong thing.

I hope many of those man hours went into thinking about how they could change science to be more engaging during gameplay and not just be "slap a few science things on the side and biome hop until we need to come back". and also how to make colonies a challenge to get them to self sustain instead of it just working without much thought .

Notably less time then 6 to 5 years (4 Years if they had no work done before the trailer)

Maybe. but probably not.

The higher the optimism the bigger the crash when the hype train derails!

Exactly you cant just use "Modded Ksp-1" there is so much variation . I personally love KSRSS and BDB and other mods that allow me to see how history could have gone. You cant compare Ksp-1 modded to Ksp-2. it's like comparing Ksp-1 to Juno new origins and using that to say how good Space Flight Simulator is.

We just have to wait for a new indie dev to create the next big space game. sadly gonna be a long wait.

31 was the number I was expecting so that's good

yes

To find out how to crash the economy and solve world hunger at the same time click Here Got 13 diamonds while mining to make some tools Then I came back to my villager house and smelted the ores and got 3 stacks of iron

@cocoscacao have a small purchase at the start of the game that's really good to get the users to be more relaxed about spending money . then make their progression slow down and make them able to speed it up with microtransactions. Then slow it down again. And then rinse and repeat.

I think science and Reentry effects will be seen considering they probably have some work done on them. anything past that I think is being a bit too optimistic. guessing colonies will take a while.

Nah only Macro transactions would do that sadly I dont think many of us here have millions of dollars

10/10 I dont know where you live

No.

Lets hope that nuclear engine doesn't land on some ones house

2/10 seen you sometimes

But Stanley of course knew that all along.

Just dont install the historical Kerbal heads mod and also maybe dont install TU if you want your computer to stay un-melted
