calabus2 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 It's humming along nicely. If you look at the KSP official Reddit community it's very much alive and well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bej Kerman Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 There will be an impact on the popularity of the IP as a whole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSP2 developement defnitely had an impact on KSP1. Hype leading up to launch saw a spike in recorded player counts (likely higher than reported due lack of launcher use). They are falling off slightly but still remain higher than before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't state specific impacts to the IP. So i provided an example. If you want other examples you provide them.

Original Comment : On 6/2/2024 at 4:45 PM, Bej Kerman said: There will be an impact on the popularity of the IP as a whole. The impact i remarked on KSP1 player counts are greater than they were prior to the existence of KSP2 The Point? Me providing a single representative indication of a single specific impact to the IP. On 6/5/2024 at 8:18 AM, Bej Kerman said: And what does KSP 1's purchase rate look like over the same time span? So some how.. me failing to answer a request for specific info some how makes the spike in player count invalid? You didn't make a comment like "There will surely be an impact upon the future SALES of the IP in general." The root of my point wast to completely an wholeheartedly 100% totally agree with you that there will be impact to the IP in general. Part of the impact is a resurgence in the popularity of the OG epic title.. KSP1. This is supported by the evidenced rise in player count. Bc i did not come to the point you are trying to browbeat upon everyone, does not diminish the point i was making. Your complete and utter inability to parse the most simplistic of logic baffles me. I am only baffled bc when there in some other person that agrees with you.. you can do intellectual summersaults to align it with reality. I only mention these others that provide posts to support your view.. bc you yourself never post anything remotely close to a supportING argument. This is fun. I should structure all my replies as if I am trying to explain 1+1 with rocks. On 6/10/2024 at 4:20 AM, TechieV said: I did get influenced by how much I play KSP.

king of nowhere Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 the ksp1 section of the forum seems a lot less active than it used to be before ksp2 released. if it recovered, it didn't go back to previous levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooseCaboose Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 I moved from console to PC due to the recent shenanigans with KSP2. It became apparent that console was never getting the last update which would have brought EVA construction. I am now delving into the world of modded KSP. I think it will survive just fine as long as it runs on newer hardware/OS platforms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me correct this for you: Somehow, you failing to provide an answer to a specific question that wasn't even asked is making your example invalid. Bej has a history of moving the goal-posts to suit their own narrative. The issue that was brought up, as you quoted, was that there would be an impact on the IP. You gave an example - which wasn't asked for, by the way - and that's all you can do. On 6/19/2024 at 8:09 AM, TechieV said: I'm just stating the facts. I'm just saying I play more KSP 1 now. So what if someone else feels the same??? No need to get angry. Your playing more now actually helps the argument the Fizzlebop made about player counts going up due to there being an impact on the IP. There's really no need for you to get upset over something that he is actually agreeing with you on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Scarecrow has pointed out. Your comment was essentially supporting an earlier claim that i had made. Therefore, you arrived at the same point as I did. My claim was that people are now "playing more than ever" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miklkit Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Not to change the subject, but I have always gotten to this forum through a link from the Wiki. This morning that link went down. I click on it and nothing happens except a blank screen. I then typed in this forum in the search bar and got here fast. Is this a general issue or is it a personal problem?

stephensmat Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 I'm noticing that a lot of modders are advertising mods that 'fill in' what KSP2 promised, like automated routes, and 'in flight construction'. Or maybe that's just me noticing an abundance of what I'm mourning the loss of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also dependencies on old mods that are not compatible with KSP v1.12.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can code, but I need help when diving into something new the first time or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
