It's not just 'shiny things', it's simple features that streamlined and refined the experience, gone is the frankly stupid 'click on this individual part' and in was the Part Manager. The user interface is leagues better in KSP2, the atmosphere (the sound, the score) and the fact it looks *almost* on part with heavily modded KSP2 without the half hour load times. KSP2 always impressed me with it's snappy load times, and quick jumping between map screen, flight screen. The bones were there to 'level up' Kerbal Space Program, and we just got a version (0.2.2) that works properly and is enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And still very well could. Given the fact we really don't know what's gonna happen yet. And I can confirm this is not "cope" as some people claim. This is pure hope talking in the faces to the people who are inevitably gonna say "it's terrible and you shouldn't care about it as much." Or "the devs are terrible people and are just scamming you". First of all, the devs are actually kinda great. And second, Hope is one of the best things I have, and I don't intend to get rid of it anytime soon.

Hey, there's no doubting it had it's issues (a fair few of which are scheduled to be ticked off in the next update), but back when KSP1 was a fledgling it was barely even a game. I mean I remember loading it on a pretty powerful system and getting literal individual frames per second, and my rockets just randomly snapping in half and otherwise just disintegrating for literally no reason. But it got better, and turned into something of a cult classic. 4 minutes ago, NexusHelium said: Wha...? why... how.... but it's so freaking good...

As a corollary. he thinks such devs are talented and competent. If he's right about, this raises some very serious questionings about some other things around here. You shifted the targeting reticle to someone else, instead of removing it from the equation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still have not been told, explicitly/officially, that IG is the studio in Seattle that is being closed, hence my comment: 4 minutes ago, Flush Foot said: I think the point of their comment was "look, another data-point that supports the community's deductions" If we do indeed assume on our own that IG is the studio that's gone (which is likely, but unconfirmed), then your comment(s) are perfectly logical.

Westinghouse Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 The Part Manager was some really bad UI design, something that was a major regression from the clickable pop-up windows from the first game. A perfect example of something they tried to improve on and failed miserably. It was almost certainly designed around being accessible using a game controller, ironic as KSP2 was never destined to make it to a console release.
