So one of the original three will probably be relegated to the astronaut’s complex. Or Bob the science guy will be left bobbing in the ocean near the Island Airfield. Jeb is the hero. He’s not going anywhere except up.... IDK, remember the 1.0 trailer also just showed a crew of 3. Come to think of it, I've never seen all 4 together in any official stuff. Could be wrong on that, though. And yeah... you just can't have KSP without Jeb. He is staying, no doubt.

Aghanim Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) My wishlist for KSP 2: Its on Steam Linux support Linux joystick support (unlike current KSP where you need AFBW to have joystick support but it used to work) Better input management for mods so that MechJeb, AtmosphericAutopilot, default SAS and throttle, and AFBW and other autopilot mods doesn't fight for the throttle and axis control and no workarounds like a checkbox in AFBW for AtmosphericAutopilot compatibility is needed Ingame keyboard + joystick binding so you don't need to go back to main menu to rebind things Extensible MFDs like RPM or MAS Better modding documentation Some good things : KSPI level interstellar drives (and warp drive too, but if its not there its fine) and resource management and acquisition First person mode and HUD (both EVA and IVA) Walkable IVA Edited August 20, 2019 by Aghanim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't even fix this game's console version so they're expecting us to buy a new one and hope for the best that it's not just like the old one? :v KSP 1 had issues on console because it wasn't originally built with console support in mind. Building a new game from scratch lets them avoid that problem. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_debt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selective Genius Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 When you are excited about the sequel but still sad because your potato computer might not be able to run it and you can't justify spending 60$ on a game to yourself...

SkyRender Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Eight years ago, I saw a video showcasing a strange game featuring simple rocket-building where you actually had to respect the laws of physics to get anywhere. I threw my lot in with that game and became an early backer of it, the only time I have ever done so. I do not and never have regretted that decision. This announcement has left me quite happy indeed, as it means that that strange game which won me over in late 2011 has become something far greater than I could ever have imagined. As Scott Manley implored you, please don't screw this up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N_Danger Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Time to wait and see about the Epic thing, If that turns out true then I'll just wait. It is a business decision we can't make, and it would be a win for the developer and the fans who don't care about the Epic Storefront. BUT the 'gaming' part of this new game looks awesome. And when it is sold in a place other than the Epic Storefront, I'll buy it then. With mods KSP 1 has plenty of gaming legs left with me until then.

I mean, I've still not bought Mass Effect Andromeda because it's only on Origin, and Just Cause 4 because the reviews are so bad I don't want to even spend the $20 it was on sale for during the Steam Summer Sale. But then there's people who shoveled cash at Microsoft and Squad to get KSP on consoles when it was painfully obvious to me that any port would at best be a shadow of what we play on PC, and at worst... well it'd be what was actually released.

Nuke Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) 1 hour ago, kithylin said: I would strongly suggest you hold your horses on that thought. Some companies have even accepted pre-orders for steam versions of the game and then later gone epic exclusive and then refusing to refund pre-orders (mech warrior 5). You may possibly buy a pre-order version today and then have to wait 1 year to be able to play it, (or possibly completely lose money and never even get any copy of the game at all.) for example. hince my post. i need to spend my mw5 refund somewhere. shutupandtakemymoneydotgif Edited August 20, 2019 by Nuke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Some_stranger Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I think mods should pin all the dev responses here. Some people are worried about EGS. A dev has already said it's releasing on steam for 59.99$. My hope is that the devs don't overwork themselves and have a good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
