If it is a puzzle/series of anomalies ok, but I really hope it's not something about warp-gates or some alien tech that enables faster interstellar travel. That said, great video! The audio design sounds awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bej Kerman Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Alien tech concealed in the Mun arch, a planet 9 analog hinted in an earlier animation, an aborted KSP 1 storyline involving a planet that nearly left the Kerbol system by accident and deployed the monoliths in a last ditch attempt to spread life... Extremely unlikely, but I hope the abandoned jumpdrive planet from KSP 1 makes it into KSP 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldForest Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Just visited the Mun to get this for you guys. I'm not sure that it shows the planets... Unless that Purple one represents Eve and its single moon... But what's the yellow planet to the right of "Eve" with a single moon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I apologize that I didn't articulate well enough. I simply mean in the history of humankind we haven't found evidence of an ancient spacefaring civilization leaving something behind that we stumbled upon. And any reasonable amount of statistical background would inform someone that we realistically never will. Ever. I was hyped for KSP2 because of how much we've heard that everything we'll be discovering in the game will be geologically realistic. Now we've got things in the game that instead of describing a realistic geologic past, could be describing the actions of an ancient, highly, highly improbable spacefaring species. It's the frontier spirit in me I suppose... there's something awe-inspiring to me about knowing I'll be the first one to set foot on this body. Now it turns out that I've already been beaten to the punch and there was never a chance of me doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poopslayer78 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 One of the most exciting parts of this feature episode for me was seeing the attention being put towards modest ambient sound effects and machinery. In the past, I've run Factorio, Ixion, and the KSP1 Astronaut Complex as background noise which should show just how valuable an immersive soundscape can be.

zeekzeek22 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Ahhh watching him record high bay and machine shop and regulator noises...that's home for me every day at work and it will be so awesome in KSP2 to hear noises that aren't just meant to sound LIKE the places I am familiar with, but ARE the sounds...it'll get me so immersed. As for the whatchamacallit beneath the arch...ahhhhh! This hints to them finally following up on the never-implemented story parts of KSP. I would love for there to be story elements you can uncover if you go Anomaly-hunting, and ruins and lore and who knows what! Even, what if you need to find anomalies across the kerbolar system in order to piece together maps to specific star systems of interest...giving some purpose to "why these other stars in particular?" So much hype energy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They draw the line at a funny star system map and not a literal dead alien or SSTV broadcasts. Edited January 11, 2023 by Bej Kerman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
