PiezPiedPy Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Excerpt from the new Take2 EULA for KSP. Quote (from new EULA): "USER CREATED CONTENT: (...) you hereby grant Licensor an exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, fully transferable, and sub-licensable worldwide right and license to use your contributions in any way and for any purpose in connection with the Software and related goods and services, including, but not limited to, the rights to reproduce, copy, adapt, modify, perform, display, publish, broadcast, transmit, or otherwise communicate to the public by any means whether now known or unknown and distribute your contributions without any further notice or compensation to you of any kind for the whole duration of protection granted to intellectual property rights by applicable laws and international conventions(...)" What do you guys think of this? From my perspective Take2 can shove it where the sun don't shine. I wont be allowing Take2 to steal my code and unless things change I wont be adding anymore to the modding community Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linuxgurugamer Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 This EULA is for the forum, not the game. And, if you dont contribute your code to them (ie: post the code on their servers) they can’t “acquire” it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the contrary, the updated EULA/TOS is for the game hence why it was announced on the Steam page (I think by UnomoCapra): Quote Please note that the EULA [www.take2games.com] for Kerbal Space Program will be changed on March 6, 2018. Please read this agreement in its entirety. You must agree with the terms of the EULA including the Privacy Policy [www.take2games.com] and Terms of Service [www.take2games.com] to play Kerbal Space Program. http://steamcommunity.com/games/220200/announcements/detail/1673522003721086842 Anyway, there is a much larger discussion about the issue on this forum located here: https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/171236-updated-terms-notice-privacy-policy-discussion/ Edited March 3, 2018 by Poodmund Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PiezPiedPy Posted March 5, 2018 Author Share Posted March 5, 2018 A legal notice for Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. Per the original agreement I entered into when I purchased the game, you do not have the right to make unilateral changes and/or to terminate the license for any reason other than my non-compliance. I do not consent to these changes now and/or at any other time regardless of any assumed acceptance of the new license, I will continue to operate under the original license.

Dman979 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 As @Poodmund pointed out, we have a much larger thread to discuss the EULA. I'm locking this thread to consolidate the discussion in one place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
