KerbalmyButtpleez505 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I was just wondering if KSP2 will have either support MacOS at launch, later in the game's life, or even at all. My windows laptop can barely run chrome well, so I am hoping I will be able to play on my iMac! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munseeker Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I'd like to second this request - it would be a shame if KSP2 has no MacOS and Linux support. KSP has been an amazing experience, and its cross-platform community has been such a wonderful thing - it would be a shame if KSP2 walks away from all that.

Raptus Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) Third! Oh damn... I actually hadn't even thought of the possibility that they wouldn't. Although... this is the one game in existence that would get me to shell out money for a PC. It would serve one purpose, and one purpose alone.

Hotwire83 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 +1 for day one MAC support, would crush me to not have it, I'm ready to pre-order today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOtherDave Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 +1 for macOS/Linux support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DStaal Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I wishlisted it on Steam just to make sure that they had another Mac user being counted in the wishlist. (Steam will track that if you set your platform preferences in your account.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iGeo Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Hi! I have a Mac to play KSP on it and i don't really wanna change platform to play KSP 2, so my question is it will going release to other platforms like macOS / Linux ? Or it will be only for Windows? Thanks for the answers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaerbanogue Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Currently we don't know about linux/mac but it'll be released later on XOne and PS4. So I think the odds are for now likely against a Mac or Linux release at launch day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardstone111 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 It shouldn't be too difficult for them. If they use Unity again it doesn't appear to be difficult to port from Windows to Mac and Linux, particularly when Linux worked better than Windows in the early years (with 64 bit).

magico13 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I expect that since they're still (probably) using Unity, Mac and Linux support should be included Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It's most likely their plan to include support for Linux & Mac but they don't want to promise anything yet. There could be some snag with either that could delay the entire release if they promised it too early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

severedsolo Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) It's literally been one day. We don't know anything yet, and I would be very surprised if there was no Linux support considering that ALOT of modders use Linux. Also, PC does not mean "Windows".

Fiddlestyx Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I need Linux/Mac OS support because with the way Windows is going I'm about to abandon it. I'm sure I'm not the only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I understand where you're coming from. In the past Squad (or whoever write those things) has referred to pc/mac/linux as just "pc"..
