Guest Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) These two ringed worlds must be compared So if you want a simple review check out this post: https://kerbalanders.wordpress.com/2020/01/21/ksp-2-ring-planets-breakdown/.But if we should discuss it let's do it here. 1. Which one would you prefer to visit first 2. Which one looks more awesome to go to 3. How hard do you think these places will be. If you want to add more discussion questions, feel free to do so!

Superfluous J Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I will first go to the one I happen to go to first. I have no preference. I cannot really make one based on a couple videos from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerbiloid Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 a no moon's land with high gravity where you can hardly move vs a one more gas giant with the only moon A hard choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta Space Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Probably Glumo, gas giants hold a special place in my KSP heart after all those adventures too Jool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleBitMore Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 (edited) Moar gas giants (especially those with intricate moon systems) certainly catch my eye, but I've been in the mood for a super-earth with a lot of potato moons for a while, so I picked Ovin.

Hyperion7 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Ovin is probably going to be the first interstellar planet I will visit out of the two, mainly because I can land on it and not accidentally summon a Kraken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do we know it has only one moon? realistically it should be an shepherding moon inside of the rings but it might be to small to be easy visible or in the shadow, also more moons further out, all our gas giants has lots of moons after all.

I find both names horrid for my Slavic ear. "Ovin" sounds like "овин", "barn for threshing", an archaic and rustic term for it "Glumo" sounds close to "глумиться", "глумливый", "to scoff at somebody demonstratively cynically and mockingly", a word with no positive connotation Edited January 23, 2020 by kerbiloid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering no one from Star Theory has said how many moons either planet has, I'd be a bit leery assuming any random wordpress blog page has anything nearing correct information on it, even if they used the word "kerbal" in the string they used when they signed up for their free page.

Zevulus Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Most likely the one closer to the starting solar system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinarte Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I prefer Ovin because you can land and build an colony on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie_D Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Considering Ovin (from the screenshots) looks like a standard planet but with rings, and Glumo looks like a gas giant that you can't land on, I'd go for Ovin too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoninFrog Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Reasoning: We'll have no lack of new places to land on. KSP 1 has a shortage of gas giants, and I hope KSP 2 doesn't. Ovin looks nearly impossible to take off from and we already have one of those (Eve). So I vote Glumo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metallic_Hydrogen Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Good, another Jool which has a better moon than Laythe. it can even be more fascinating to have a couple of dozens of asteroids in Glumo/ovin's rings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSpace Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 On one hand, Glumo is a gas giant so you shouldn't really be able to "go there". On the other hand, that hasn't stopped people from landing on Jool before. In the end it'll probably be a matter of whichever one is closest.

SciMan Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Probably Glumo, if for no other reason than the fact that it's a gas giant. Fusion drives take hydrogen or helium isotopes for the most part, and what better place to find that stuff than a gas giant? If nothing else, I'd set up a small orbital colony for refueling my interstellar transport ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostkerbalnearduna Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Hard choice.but glumo has a moon that reminds me of irl titan,Saturn vii- so i say glumo,but ovin still nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanPruden Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Ovin would be a pain to land on. On murble (The name of the moon) you get an awesome view of glummo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
