Thundy Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 (edited) Former NASA engineer Campos to be featured in video game It's an interesting article to read, but I noticed something in it... Quote The game is expected to be released early next year on platforms like PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PCs and more. First time seeing a release window. I thought "Maybe this article is from 2019?", I double checked, it's from September 19th 2021. That makes it early 2022? Crazy. What do you guys think about this?

Ahres Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Wow thanks, Thundy, for bringing this to light. I'm still trying to figure how to read it without subscribing. Any way to do that? I've still been optimistic they get it released in the first half of next year. Officially, we know from T2 earnings reports that the game is set to release in FY2023, which begins April 1st, 2022. So I'd say the chances are good it's not coming before that. But this is the closest we've gotten to confirmation that we're less than a year away from release!

Does early mean its in the first half, first third or first quarter? if its first quarter than that would contradict the T2 earnings report, if its first half then it'd be from April to June. There are 3 types of time ranges, There 's "Early - Late" and there's "Early - Mid - Late", and the quarters, saying "early" could be any of theses' "early".

Or did they just add in "early" when they really don't know? Or did Nate only say "early" so that's all the writer said? We'll find out soon enough I suppose.

Gargamel Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Not sure why the release date is news, there's a pinned thread at the top of this sub forum, which has been there for almost a year, that says exactly that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did say "2022", but didn't mention any specifics about the date, could be January 1st to December 31st 2022 for all we know. This is news because it specified "Early 2022" as a timeframe.

shdwlrd Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Outside of a tribute to Mr Campos, there's nothing of note in the article. Personally I do think it's cool that the Intercept team is continuing to honor individuals from the aerospace and astrophysics fields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francois424 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Interesting. I usually play KSP during my winter vacation (Feb-April). Maybe I'll have a shiny new toy next year afterall. Assuming this is legit and there are no future delays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modus Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 The line about the release date is not a quote by Nate, it's something the author states, so I wouldn't take this as official or anything like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It most certainly does not say exactly that. The excitement here is the fact that it said early next year, which has not been stated anywhere officially nor unofficially.
