I back to this forums since 2 month and just find a new delay to fix a performance bug, While..... Baldurs Gate 2: New patch 1000 bug fixed (one week later from lunch the game) for 25€ and totaly playable game. Ksp was my favorite game. It has become my most hated game. I love BG3 too, it's great! I don't think that's a fair comparison though, Larian has been around for more than 25 years and has made 7 similar games and 9 other games, and also they have more than 400 people on their payroll. They've had loads and loads of practice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DasWiesel Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Honestly, if I were an investor involved in this mess I'd pull my money ASAP. At the time of release in early access the game was already 4 years in development. Now, half a year later there is ZERO progress. The game is basically unplayable. And even if it weren't for the bugs, counting just the implemented features, the game is pretty much a downgrade from KSP1 in every way. Yet, you continue to mess this up without a care in the world. According to steamchart, the player count peaked at 203 in the last 24 hours. Currently, no one is playing this game. You only get so many chances before this game is inresurrectibly dead. We don't want that. But it looks very much like you don't care either way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you bought on Steam and are past the automated window, you can fight it out with Support (NOT the automated refund method, but a support request). Depending on where you live, check your country's laws, as you might be eligible for a refund independently of Steam's guidelines. Be insistent, be assertive, and for the love of god make a good argument past "game bad". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinite Aerospace Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I've gotta ask, do the developers ever actually interact with these posts or just 'post and disappear'? They *really* could help themselves here with a bit of actual person to person communication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moeggz Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 It’s like they picked the worst of both worlds. Talking a lot at times but only about insubstantial stuff (amas with softball questions, dev insights into features that were supposed to come a brief window after launch) And then trying to change to a “under promise over deliver strategy” without acknowledging or wrapping up the loose ends of everything they’ve already discussed (reentry heat video was supposedly supposed to come out 11 days ago, has since then not been even acknowledged) all the while not actually delivering everything. It’s like they keep flip flopping on how much to talk thinking that’s the reason the player base is grumpy when, if the game was making progress, they could talk a lot or not at all and many would be happier. Because the communication style isn’t the reason for the backlash, the state of the game is the reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First rare big videos, then short Friday videos every two weeks, then sudden silence since last October. Even the patches are uneven - sometimes big patches, sometimes two hotfixes in the summer, now hotfixes are not promised again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uglyduckling81 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 So early week has come and gone. Wednesday and still no patch? Is there further delays posted on Twitter or some other random social media site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socraticat Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 2 minutes ago, RalphKerman said: But the lack of communication is really frustrating, just a little heads-up, a bit of "hey, we are making <good|slow|no> progress on x, y and z ...." would be really appreciated and would increase trust in the team. Except it hasn't increased trust in the team thusfar. It's a catch 22 for them, so maybe at some point they will or have come to the conclusion that if they are going to get beat with a stick either way, better to make them follow you rather than present yourself for the beating. 1 hour ago, uglyduckling81 said: So early week has come and gone. Wednesday and still no patch? Hold off on this for another 24 hours. It's still midday Tues on the US West Coast. I was ready for it yesterday, because I like to be on the early side of early when I'm excited for things, but when I'm not excited for a thing I'm on the late side of early when I say I'm going to be early. 2 minutes ago, RocketRockington said: Another option - the patch is already finished, but they are not releasing it until their crack team of white-hat hackers have defeated the evil reddit-bot master villain, so the patch notes won't suffer from all those downvotes. They are currently doing battle in the Matrix. Currently creating another bot army to fight the first, which is what's slowing down development.

Kerbart Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Reminder that @Dakota said they *aimed* to get it done this week. They didn’t say it *would*.
