Kerbal Space Program - Making History - Preview

[@KevinVandyTech]

Someone make a script for The Martian asap please

[@kwinvdv]

Kevin Vandy So your kerbal has to grow potatoes in his/her own poop for the first few months and blow it up?

[@amazur31]

So you need to drive 2000 km in a rover

[@hopdevil007]

If Matt Damon was stranded on Mars my first impulse is to just leave him there.

[@amazur31]

Matt Kerman starring as Mark Watney. Epic journey through many craters, and other shit. And you didn't saved when you launched the rocket, gg.

[@km5405]

yes! .... oh man think of all the cool stuff you might be able to do with kerbal inventory system! :D

[@bottlekruiser]

>flings Bill the hell out of the system >Fly safe!

[@eshafto]

Played this game daily for years, then ran out of things to do and stopped for a few months. Then bought myself a few more months with Realism Overhaul. Not at all unhappy about having to pay for the DLC and getting another half-million hours of gameplay.

[@chuckbillrow]

I was an early adopter so I wont have to but I would gladly pay for a DLC that would get me back into the game... unfortunately this does not look like the DLC that will do that for me

[@kahlzun]

i reckon the money i paid for this game has the best dollar-to-hours ratio of anything i've ever bought.

[@radiofrog]

Yeah I think $15 is perfectly reasonable considering this seems to add loads of gameplay. I'm not a big fan of what Take-Two has done in the past, but as long as they're keeping things reasonable and respecting the community by not banning mods or making lootboxes, this kind of stuff is fine in my book.

[@jasonpatterson8091]

chuckbrillow Same here. I love this game, but once I had basically done it all, I lost my steam. I would really love a DLC that got me to spend another 1000 hours playing the thing. I can't agree more with the dollar-to-hours ratio comment by kahlzun.

[@sandercohen5543]

One does not simply ”run out of things to do” in ksp, have a look at cupcake landers channel, awesome stuff ^^

[@ElectricityTaster]

All I want from KSP is workshop support.

[@iwillandcansayracialslurs2020]

[@garrold7123]

That would be shit for many reasons. Use ckan

[@GreenthumbGaming_GT]

I really like how the mission builder is. The mission you made is how I think the original game missions should be like. Thanks for sharing with us Scott!

[@Grouuumpf]

I never liked having to pay again for a DLC on a game I've already payed for, but for a game I paid less than 20€, and played for 1675hrs... Okay, they deserve my money. Crap.

[@ElectricityTaster]

I don't think squad is living on food scraps.

[@5hirtandtieler]

agun17 Nothing to do with how well they're off financially, but willingness to pay more money towards something that deserves it

[@ineednochannelyoutube5384]

+ShirtAndTieler EA acquired them, didnt they?

[@Grouuumpf]

well, all the more reason: if KSP doesn't make enough money, EA will kill it

[@ineednochannelyoutube5384]

+Loïc Rebts Sorry. Not EA, Take2

"The console version is going to come later" That was an understatement, I'm just extremely happy it's coming out tomorrow, this DLC has so many things I've wanted in ksp :)

[@limitlesssky1475]

"Whisky Tango Foxtrot!" (5:12) Took me a while to get it.

[@lostbutfreesoul]

Showing this off to my husband, who plays KSP religiously. We are so happy with everything shown here and looking forward to release!

[@user-lp7tx1fe6t]

Mod this and create a mission for Interstellar

[@Mech-Badger-Man]

I want Scott to play it and be amused by the great satire pouting out everything wrong with interstellar's logic!

[@Eliphas_Leary]

Forgive me, but I have to make this remark: KSP tells me that in the mountains west of the KSC, close to the monolith, there is a location called "Manley's greatness". Scott, you truly made it!

[@KashouWannabe]

While I was a avid KSP Mod Forum user when it was still living, it would be a nice time to finally bring in Steam Workshop Support for missions, premade ships, and mods in general. But I guess CKAN will always be the goto nowadays. EDIT: Aw, the SPS isn't a Monoprop engine like the KW Rocketry one, boo! I loved to shrink that down and use it on shuttles. EDIT 2: As a Aug 2013 purchaser, I am a sad panda :(

[@TheLoganatorz]

What will be the price of the new expansion and how can the KSP devs ensure that some one will just make a free mod of the same thing?

[@deus313]

It'll be 15 dollars unless you're on the console or bought the game before April 2013 I think.

[@loucascubeddu]

The expansion is going to be 14.99$. They technicaly can't make sure modders do that, but I'm absolutely no mod is ever gonna match this level. And it's gonna (100% sure) lack the ability to share your missions.

[@batt3ryac1d]

LekoWhite probably wouldnt be too hard to rip the stuff from the dlc and mod it in.

[@tenaciousrodent6251]

If you like the game, support it. As long as it's not by loot boxes that is!

[@TheLoganatorz]

Thanks for the replies :) Guess it’s time to start saving!

[@salameez]

He who makes the first mission replicating interstellar will be the subject of my worship for years to come.

[@PTNLemay]

I'm going to love playing with those 1.85. That's a perfect middle ground that has been a long time coming.

[@weebo1612]

Pretty crazy that squad moved from making commercials/advertisements to the end-result that is this. Awesome *Edit* Got the top gun reference*

[@HaibaneKuu]

OMAGOD! These parts are awesome

[@michaelt3172]

It's so beautiful. I've waited so long

[@DrippyWaffler]

This looks so freaking cool.

[@lersusallarhand5831]

Years after my first ingame rocket launch and after several hundred hours of gameplay, im still so hyped for that expansion !

[@wowthatsgreat4870]

The high and low pitches to your voice is fascinating ;) neva stop talking bro! Love the vids , recently found you, have watched dozens

[@Techiastronamo]

Didn't know I got it free because of that April 13, 2013 thing. Loving the new content, so much more stuff to do now with missions!

[@IT-kone]

Oh boy! They have integrated many of the quality of life features from Realism Overhaul (interfairings, end plates etc)! This looks super!

[@michaelsedor6807]

Creating missions is neat... sharing those missions with friends would be neater.

[@meepk633]

Being able to attach another stage under multiple engines is the best feature ever.

[@C_B_Hubbs]

The goal of KSP development should be to make as many mods as possible obsolete. Now they just need to add the option for a 10x scale (or real scale) "hard mode" or even adapt the Galileo Planet Pack and Cero System into the stock game.

[@alexsiemers7898]

And toggleable visual mods

[@ClockworkRBLX]

but not with DLC

[@Viper607706]

This looks pretty good, and like a lot of work has gone into something that isn't too expensive!

[@brumby92]

Great idea for a mission scott. Can't wait for all Apollo missions scripted out.

[@fiveoneecho]

People are mad about having to buy a DLC for "mod parts" but I think it's awesome that we have more properly balanced and developer-kept parts! I think it's awesome!

[@lewismassie]

One thing I've only just noticed, is the storytelling potential of these mission nodes

[@japanese6337]

God damn it! I bought it 26 days too late... EDIT: Never mind. It's actually any purchase before May 1st 2013. So I'm 4 days early.

[@DFX2KX]

oh yay! I get it for free then!

[@willvvf161]

For the record, FW-190 pilots would commonly use their rudders and side-slip to slow down for landings. Learned that from an interview with a WWII veteran from Eagle Dynamics.

[@Twitchi]

All about those engine plates, that and the mission planner is what I am waiting for

[@kinnetikira]

12:30 the feature on that part will make the deployment of triple/quadruple geostationary kerbnetwork satellites so so so much easier to construct and deploy! p.s. that 'new' launch site was already in the game as easter egg & if you used kis/kas mod combo you could have already been launching from it!

[@jimcole5359]

This looks interesting. I am going to have to get it just because I can hehehe. Thanks for the vid Scott, looking forward to more.

[@nemeanlyan7918]

Yep. I got it May 9th, 2013 XD

[@Kavukamari]

ohh these are really wanted features, I love the extra node on the engine plates

[@paulnmarshall7504]

I like the concept of the new engines, so I'd pay $15 for it. Plus having those engine blocks is going to help my PC save some memory space when i build those larger crafts. And also, the 1.3.x parts are pretty bland, and being able to change up the skins of your tanks is REALLY going to help make the game more playable. Can't wait for official release!

[@Hisu0]

One of the first missions I make will be the Monofuel Spaceplane Initiative. General rules: you can't take more than one type of fuel (ore and electricity don't count) and all your crafts must have atmospheric wings. First stage: get 5 tons of cargo to the low Kerbin orbit in one go Second stage: assemble an orbital station using planes from first stage Third stage: assemble an interplanetary carrier using planes from first stage. Constraint: that carrier has to carry at least two spaceplanes and have no more than three times their fuel capacity Final stage: using that interplanetary carrier, visit every celestial body in the system without supplies from Kerbin or its orbital structures

[@petlahk4119]

Finally. We don't have to fiddle around with clipped struts and nosecone fairings to get multiple engines on a stage.

[@EmptyZoo393]

I've been looking at how long KSP has been running, and have been impressed with how long they've kept expanding the game through updates. Most companies would have long ago put most of those updates and expansions into a sequel. The only other games that I've put anywhere near as many hours into are Skyrim and Alpha Centauri. For the amount that Squad's kept putting into KSP with no strings attached, I'm more than happy to support a DLC.

[@iami3rian394]

Squad sold the game mate. Take two are the new owners.

[@findalyo5]

Scott's pronunciation of porpoise is amazing

[@ctx4241]

it will be interesting to see what is going to happen with already existing mods that are similar to what they are releasing now. TBH I'm quite scared. I would believe that squad would leave it be, but since paradox are taking over, i have no idea about their policy. Modders are already going through hell with every update even though their creations make KSP as entertaining as it is. I can see fall of KSP if they decide to ditch modders and make us pay 4.99 for every"small side engine that u could use". I am very scared...

[@camicus-3249]

Is it possible for nodes to make forces act on vessels? An Interstellar docking mission would be amazing

[@ForwardBias]

We already have the Kraken ;)

[@raintrain9921]

Maybe you could make a rcs thruster misfire, although not sure if that's in the expansion either

[@xeon6038]

Ksp making history dlc came out for console today on the 28/3/19

[@LazieKat]

I haven't been playing for several months, but will definitely buy this dlc!

[@mikicerise6250]

This is awesome! Can't wait for mods to be updated.

[@agentnuget]

Got the itch to play KSP again after almost two years old. Logged in and seen the expansion in my account (bought it early enough to get all expansions free) I'm excited to play. I would love to make my own missions!

[@maudelauf1885]

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot - WTF, Well done sir! :D

[@oke_doke2894]

It would be fun to have Kerbish sounds play when the dialog pops up. If that's not a feature, I'm sure modders will make it happen.

[@matthijs_4849]

Haha, i paid *40€* for KSP enhanced edition and they are still going to charge me for this!?

[@jukahri]

You bought the game as it was at the time of purchase, and it was obviously good enough for you to spend your money back then. I'm not aware that you paid for continued content updates, so why would you expect it for free.

[@alexsiemers7898]

If you got enhanced edition (console), then all DLCs are free.

[@killllllllllllllerrr]

Jukelo why should you pay for updates when the game you bought was early access? I expect free updates and more for my money. The gaming industry believes that we should pay the amounts of money we do and then even charge us more for the same old game? Doesn't seem right to me

[@matthijs_4849]

Tiago Lavadinho exactly!

[@PTNLemay]

[@lexiepexie7845]

Scott sounds like a rocket scientist at the Kennedy space center watching falcon heavy

[@DrippyWaffler]

Those fairings are going to be super useful.

[@huracan200173]

Awesome! I was waiting for this!

[@siyacer]

This really is making history!

[@luketorpedo]

I'm quite sure the original agreement with the game was that on being an early access adopter you would get all the future game content for free. This is why the first time around the devs mentioned DLC there was a huge community backlash. I hope they honour that agreement for early adopters, but I very much doubt they will. (not that I want this anyway, don't need the mission builder, loads of good mods for different size parts and the new jet sounds are just terrible.)

[@scottmanley]

They’ve already said they’ll honor this.

[@nerfinator6]

But that implies that if you bought it in early access, that means you should get this for free. I bought it in early access, but apparently i'm "ineligible"

[@luketorpedo]

Neat, just seen it on the announcement pages. I'll still hold my breath till the 13th mind. A shame that the new sounds are part of 1.4 though, I'd rather not have had the new jet sounds at all.

[@TheMoonRover]

+Sergeant Methcake That was the agreement if you bought it before the end of April 2013. That's when they changed it, long before it left early access.

[@BobbySimmons6855]

Feels good getting this free =]

[@Alaska1925]

I'll be getting this. Also, it would be really cool if Squad added more launch sites in the future. Really like that idea.. gives some variety.

[@iami3rian394]

It would also be super illegal, since they sold KSP to take two months ago. = )

[@Alaska1925]

Argh, forgot about that, sorry.. Well, whoever, please do it. Looks like a very good expansion anyway, love the new parts and mission planner.

[@kefkaZZZ]

It will be awesome when Kerbal Enhanced Edition can do everything that KSP on the console can do. wow, can't wait for physics time warp and an SAS radial menu.

[@McHeisenburger]

I’m so excited for this DLC.

[@Waffle4569]

Would be awesome to have multiplayer missions, you could have cooperative missions or competitive games, sort of like GTA races.

[@sulijoo]

People have already played KSP multiplayer; it was hard to coordinate and buggy. Don't see why yet another game needs to be ruined by multiplayer. This isn't EVE Online.

[@shindenfighter3303]

English with Scott: "Werhener is saying: "go, go, go" and I am going, going, going and now I am gone, gone, gone"

[@Cyynapse]

i hope that theres some way to combine the contracts with the mission builder, would be a lot more fun.

[@Raketmannen]

Oh my god when you zoomed out on the rocket i lost it xD

[@josephhoward4697]

You should make a video where Jeb jumps off the mountain, but using a parachute instead of a wingsuit.

[@RBsRealm]

*NOTE FOR ALL:* Make sure you download *the actual files* for any mods you want to use. Take2 has a history of shutting mods they don’t like down so you may not be able to obtain them again.

[@Jmvars]

I LOVE those engine plates. Trying to decouple with multiple engines never worked.

[@rav9910]

Would be cool to see the mission builder be integretated in the career mode and you can just browse and rate user made missions from the workshop and get money and rep this way

[@wookieegoldberg]

I believe the "LV-T91 Cheetah" engine (@10:45) is meant to be a LR-91 Titan upper stage engine, rather than a lunar module engine.

[@chriswoodend2036]

Please Scott, balance audio levels between intro and video.

[@mightylink65]

The video I've been waiting for, thank you so much Scott Manly!

[@PTNLemay]

It'll be cool if they could have an easy way of browsing other people's missions. Maybe even have a list you can browse from the main menu that shows things like "top 10 missions this week". Things like that. It would make it feel more seamless than if you have to download them off the forums and plug them into a folder manually.

[@Spudcosmiccc]

I vaguely recall being promised free DLC for supporting the early access release. Is that still the case?

[@alexsiemers7898]

For those who got the game before May 2013, yes

[@Spudcosmiccc]

Looks like I make the cut by one month. Good to hear they followed through with that.

[@jackvernian7779]

Nice. Now we pay for mod content incorporated into the game. But of course, the main thing is the mission builder, and that is really an expansion.

[@NavidIsANoob]

I dunno man, this is really high quality. I never really saw that with mods.

[@jackvernian7779]

+NavidIsANoob I respectfully disagree with you. But hey, like I said, mission builder justifies an expansion.

[@lostplshelp]

Take-Two bought out Squad iirc, the same company that tried to ban mods for GTA 5 and is known for being generally scummy, so it doesn't surprise me.

[@lukefreeman828]

Take-Two had nothing to do with the expansion though. It was well developed as a concept and already under construction afaik by the time T2 bought Squad.

[@ForwardBias]

They didn't try to ban mods for hell's sake. It was only for multiplayer mods that people were using to get unfair advantages on GTA Online. Stop spewing out that BS.

[@zacshaheen8286]

Literally so excited

[@Mythricia1988]

Looks like a quality chunk of content. I don't really understand all the people moaning about "Oh so we're paying for mod parts now?" - this is an update to the base game. Out of the million+ people who own the game, I would be surprised if an overwhelming majority use mods at all. A lot of people do, but far from everyone. I myself have come back to enjoying the base game more, because every time I try to play with mods, it always ends up being a disappointing experience because some mod inevitably is broken or incompatible, or you end up with game imbalances, or whatever..... Ultimately, you end up feeling like you're playing a broken game, or you spend more time putting together and configuring a mod pack than you spend time actually playing the game. At least with the stock game, even if it is much narrower in scope, you feel like you are playing a quality game, and all the parts are very high quality. And, coming back around to the paid expansions.... They add *more* quality stuff to the base game, which is super nice. I don't understand how people are somehow offended by this idea. If you enjoy using mods, keep using mods, literally nothing about your ability to use mods has changed.

[@benistingray6097]

Everyone moaning because they lied. Heres a quote from an article they released back in 2013 about future plans and DLC: "We’re not talking about small content bundles, we’re talking about major game-changing sets of features, like Multiplayer, or Colonization. Things that add not just content, but new gameplay possibilities. So yeah the DLC is the exact opposite of what they said! kerbaldevteam.tumblr.com/post/47730955705/expansions-dlc-and-the-future-of-ksp

[@spencers4121]

It might not be for everyone, even I'm not that super into the mission builder. But I do think the mission builder looks very detailed, and doing missions from other players may make it worth it. And I will be getting it, $15 isn't that bad. Not with how many hours I've put into KSP as it is, right at 600 hours. I think I've got my moneys worth :P

[@alexsiemers7898]

I've got 2700 hours in the game since 2014...

[@radiofrog]

Compared to EA's "$20 for a few Sims 3 items" bullshit and other triple A cash grabs, $15 for something like this really isn't that bad. I'd say it's reasonably priced.
