Let's Get Semantic

[Cpt Kerbalkrunch]

There's been an elephant in the room (or forum) for several weeks now, and it can no longer be ignored.  I realize this is a hot button topic, so no one wants to touch it, but it's time we got it out in the open.

There's been a lot of talk around here about when KSP2 1.0 will be released. There's even an entire hype-train thread dedicated to it. This is a ridiculous question. Anyone with a rational mind knows that the name of the official release is going to be KSP 2.0. Anything else  would  not  make sense. I'm sure you agree.

And to those who would ask "if the official release is called KSP2.0, what should this current version be called?", I would say... please don't complicate things (KSP2-.9? ). We need to settle the issue once and for all before it tears this community apart.

So, please vote on this most important issue and let your voice be heard. Especially if you agree with me.

Thank you.

Not this again

Version number ≠ a digit in title. Never has been, never will be.

The "2" in KSP2 is part of the name and not the version, so the correct approach is something like "KSP2 build 1.0.buildnumber"

Elite Dangerous is at version 4.0. Does it make it Elite Dangerous 4?

Hadn't realized this, but I'm beginning to understand as well.

The correct answer is however Intercept says it.

If they say this is KSP2 version squat.poodle.florbnorb them this is KSP2 version squat.poodle.florbnorb. No further discussion is necessary after that.

I like it, but not sure how well it would sell .

The poll is missing the correct option, which would be;

Kerbal Space Program 2(.0)

Let's skip all the argument and numbers and call it what it actually is: KSP2 Full Release   

[Kerbart]

Both versions in the poll are completely heretical and I don’t see the point of engaging the pagans who believe in such false gods. I can only imagine what other viewpoints they regard, in their twisted worldview, as “normal.” Ketchup on hot dogs? Sunday the first day of the week? Frappucino?

While I agree with your hypothesis, it should be KSP[2] (imagine those are absolute value lines

Here in Chicago, we actually eat pizza with sauce on the top. And it's very thick.

Hmm, Pizza 2.0? I'm gonna see if that catches on .

[Alexoff]

Correct will be "KSP 1 Remaster", version 0.1

As a Jersey resident I should point out that you forgot the double quotes. The correct way of writing it is: In Chicago we actually eat “pizza” with…

KSP2 is not KSP1. There aren't many changes as of now but it will become more obvious as we reach later milestones that KSP2 is a different game.

[Spicat]

We can't really contradict intercept games on this (+ yea silly debate):

That was good. I would love a KSP1 Remaster. Something to tide us over 'til KSP2 is actually ready.

I've never heard anyone say that American Tomato-Sugar-Sauce doesn't go well on Hot Dogs.

You bring facts to a debate?

Hmm, well the last line does say this is subject to change.

This vote may bring about that change. I'm now even more convinced of its importance.

Let your voices be heard!

Especially if you agree with me.

In layman's terms, this is called "humor". I have to admit, I'm a fan (hence this entire thread). I'm pretty confident Alexoff is not sharing insider information here.

Unless he knows more than he's letting on?
