dragonart777 Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 10 hours ago, Malathion said: I've been trying to figure this out for weeks now. The Private Division store countdown says 8 days, which is actually the 23rd. That leads me to believe it's going to release at midnight or basically "zero hour" on the 24th. Total speculation and maybe optimism on my part, but I would sure like to find out so I can decide if I'm taking the 24th off of work or not. https://store.privatedivision.com/game/kerbal-space-program-2 (I'm 52 years old and haven't been this excited about a video game, well since ...... Ultima V ) Private Division headquarters is in nyc so i am going to guess its going to be eastern time. unless there going off intercept games and that is in seattle so it be pst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My very first PC game was Ultima VII. One hell of a game. The npc interactions were unmatched for at least a decade, and I loved the lore. But now it's time for a new era of games :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephensmat Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 My first PC game (beyond the stock Microsoft stuff) was the original Myst. I was a kid, and had far less patience than I needed. Fortunately for my KSP career, I kinda overcame that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldForest Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 8 Days, 8 hours and 54 mins to go! Hopefully we'll see something from the content creators starting tomorrow (Friday). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DwightLee Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 We have waited a long time for this, I know a lot of folks have a lot of fears over what they have done, but I am still very hopeful, Looking forward to early access. I am going to look at the first iteration on the 24th as a test of systems, try out the new components, the new VAB systems., get familiar with the new UI. Report back to the Devs on issues. I think we are in good hands, I remember the first videos about Nate, and was quite pleased with who was in charge, then particularly excited when they brought the Squad team over.

I doubt the CC will have even hinted they'd seen the game if they were forbidden from talking about it until Launch Day. 9 minutes ago, DwightLee said: We have waited a long time for this, I know a lot of folks have a lot of fears over what they have done, but I am still very hopeful, One thing that occurs to me: Every game of the last ten years that's been a massive disappointment? They didn't let anyone see anything. If they're taking the KSP equivalent of 'influencers' and giving them time to explore, there must be some confidence behind that. 9 minutes ago, DwightLee said: I think we are in good hands, I remember the first videos about Nate, and was quite pleased with who was in charge, then particularly excited when they brought the Squad team over. If we do see sneak peeks from the Content Creators, then listen for the enthusiasm. If it's there, that'll be more encouraging than anything get get from a cinematic trailer.

Then in most cases they can talk, but not show. So I wouldn't expect any footage until release unless it's official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason, my phone loves to just highlight everything when I'm trying to type a message and kick me out of the keyboard... Anywho.... For KSP 1 ,CCs would get early access to updates and be able to show footage and not just talk about it. Hopefully Intercept carries over that tradition. I'm sure Nate would want to continue that tradition and would lobby for it from TT or PE or the heads at IG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Aziz Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 So closed beta. And those with access were very much volunteer beta testers. Fair enough I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually expecting to be disappointed tomorrow with a game I have waited a long time for. But I do have higher hopes for KSP 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the same day that I found out that kerbals being ejected creates a teensy-weensy amount of force. It went down hill from there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
