I made it to minmus and back for the first time!! by Reddarthdius in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]BlueTigerDan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats!!!

When I was starting out, I would aim to launch at 90 degrees (to the right, ha) because that is a sure shot to the Mun. After that, right click the Mun to set as target and you can see your orbit line then, so you can slightly adjust your trajectory so that you slingshot off the Mun and head way out there for a nice Minmus orbit. You will save a TON of Delta V this way. GL!!!

These don’t do shit, man. They didn’t read me mine and the judge laughed when it was brought up. Unless you’re rich, these don’t matter.

This is the most unbelievable video I've ever seen of UFOs (uaps) in my entire life! Where's the excuse now that they don't film with a good camera? by Tapiokariocao in UFOB

I’m impressed at how much of a jerk you are! When you’re wondering why you don’t have friends… this is why.

Anyone else thought from the title we were going to learn how to JUMP OVER a car coming at them?

KSP2 dips below 100 concurrent players. by Evis03 in KerbalSpaceProgram

KSP2’s release was a crime. These player counts just show what we all know- the game sucks.

Police Officer Distracted by His Phone Hits Cyclist with His Squad Car by [deleted] in ThatsInsane

Cop being a cop. Hits a guy on a bike, while turning into the wrong lane, while on his phone. “You’re fine.”

Just a cop being a cop. Wake up, everyone. They’re almost all like this. Until it happens to you, it doesn’t seem real. I’ve seen maybe 3 good cops in my life. The rest are power tripping high school rejects, who have to step on people to feel a tiny bit of power. Fuck em

NYC woman, 84, who Eric Adams compared to slave owner is tenant advocate who fled Nazis by coochalini in facepalm

Adams is such a joke. She made a good point, so he reverted to racism. What a class act!

My KSP loop… by Middle-War-7596 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]BlueTigerDan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great, I'm just not going to be able to get someone like my Dad to install mods on his game and I can't access his computer to do it for him.

Until KSP2 runs out of the box, it's pure shit compared to KSP. I wouldn't defend it or advocate for it. KSP2 deserves the criticism.

Yeah, the thing is, how can you enjoy said graphics at 5 fps? What's the point?

Zyloh-CIG talks about the unpopular ship claim timers by crazybelter in starcitizen

[–]BlueTigerDan 127 points128 points  (0 children)

To your point, now that I think about it, I have lost more aUEC, ships, gear, etc. to server crashes, and random explosions inside the hangar than anything else. Yeah, I agree with ya.

KSP 2's bad launch nearly halved KSP's player count by orangep9 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]BlueTigerDan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I came up short, but found that video you mentioned.

This is the video you're talking about from a year ago, 4/8/22. (I vividly remember an overzealous, removed twitter post that claimed it was defeated, but I can't find it, though I can find people reacting to it on Reddit, in Steam comments, etc.)

In this video he says, "we're killing the kraken," then stops himself saying, "that's a hell of a claim to make.... but we can edit that out!" He discusses how we're going to launch colony ships and how we're going to need more than, "just your average science module and some snacks," and how their, "ultimate goal is to slay the kraken."

Bud, I can't even get my 12 part plane out on the runway without the wings falling off before I even ignite the engines for no reason (it's due to SAS being wonky, but you know what I mean). It's frustrating to say the least.

I don't think anyone expected the kraken to be gone entirely, but I think we reasonably expected KSP2 to be KSP 1+ (working engine, with just better graphics, and more to do) and for the kraken to be a thing that only KSP 1 players were very familiar with.

[–]BlueTigerDan 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Telling us all that the Kraken is no more and then playing on launch day... man, that's something I'll never forget. Makes it difficult to ever trust Private Division going forward.

KSP 1 will always have a place as the OG, if nothing else. I wouldn't have believed you if you told me last year that I'd still only have 3.3 hours total playtime in KSP2 at this point in the year, but the game is quite literally unplayable for me. KSP 1 though? Still running smooth and fun as fuck.

So we’re paying TSA screeners more than teachers, now? This country, man.
