First to anyone giving the devs a hard time on day 1 of early access ….it’s early access guys means it will be full of bugs and problems and it’s released so we can get it early ..but we should also expect problems that will be fixed …so stop winging and enjoy what you got or if the issues bother you then don’t buy early access wait for the full launch …early acces is not a completed finished game …it’s so us people anxious to see the new version can have a go and be there through the end of development …so at most constructive criticism is all that’s warranted when you buy an EA game right? Anything else like poodleing about something not working right If you didn’t expect that then don’t buy EA games sheesh
..I think it’s great ! Awesome job devs it’s amazing thank you guys for all your hard work giving us early access to the game you all rock and are appreciated by many !
I made a similar suggestion to the one I’m making here to the devs at elite dangerous a year or so ago just on a more limited scale that would probably work within that game …I’m a big space sim fan ..started with kerbal space ..where I played a million hours moved to elite ..now it’s back to Kerbal 2!
ok so I don’t know if something like this is possible as it may be too difficult to develop or won’t work in the framework of the game or who knows but here it is..
a hard core mode much like some mods that were actually out there for Ksp ….where you have to manage your oxygen and resources to survive that appropriate machines like water reclaimers …where you can move about in your ships ..manage battery fuel food …mine asteroids for resources say to get water to make fuel ..have a green house onboard to grow food ..gather resources on planets to manage your food ..gather resources to keep you batteries maintained ..a hard core mode that is just like it would be on say a real mission to mars where it’s not just getting there and back and making a colony etc ..but you gotta take or on longer distances or acquire all the resources to keep your crew alive and the ship going ..
I am sure there are many people that would really enjoy a hard core mode like this where it’s nit just about flight and orbital mechanics docking landing but also super realistic in resource management and running your vessel to even make it to your destination and keep your little green buddies alive and the ship maintained and fueled …for very long trips there would be the planet exploration for resources and asteroid mining and what not …I think it would add a lot to the game ..
yeah maybe it’s way too much to ask but it would be super cool probably inspire future astronauts and even innovation…if there was say a mode that functioned on a realistic frame work using parts that you could make in todays world with the resources available on earth not make believe stuff to make your own machines to say extract water or resources ..who knows what amateur kerbalnauts would come up with maybe a ksp player figures out to make a real warp drive on day lol …heck if it was complex enough maybe even real astronauts would practice and train with ksp 2 one day hahha
anyways just an idea.. probably way to complex to add in but yeah maybe pieces of the idea as like I mentioned I remember a mod in ksp1 where you had to manage a limited set of resources like oxygen during journeys …
