still no multiplayer still not worth buying

[Lord Shit Fountain]

still no multiplayer and so its still not worth buying even at $15, 2 years ago the devs themselvs even admitted that multiplayer was a highly requested feature and they said they would look into doing it, 2 years later and we still dont have it, mods made some progress getting it working but it was jank as hell and didnt always work properly.

freaking common devs, if you add in working multiplayer i would buy this game right now for FULL PRICE.

Is that supposed to constitute an explanation?

Is it , multiplayer mod 'LunaMultiplayer" Or "DarkMultiplayer" work like that with subspace and you have to sync with each other to be on the same time line, you speak of something you don't know , so why speak ? tell me dude , u didn't test multiplayer at all and you came here to open your mouth and saying stupid things. FOR A KERBAL MULTIPLAYER OR COOP MOD !

And no one say THERE IS NO TIME WARP in multiplayer , multi have time warp and yes you can't play without it. Playing in multiplayer is just about planing things , be capable to play at 4 or 8 people will be enough. So why it's not possible right now? Tell me , because modders can do it. With some little bugs , but , they are just modders after all. U know , if take two want it , they can do it. Do we have to paid the modders to do a great job? Or its the role of the company to satisfy customers? If they add it tomorrow , kerbal will be on top selling on steam. Do it as DLC , 25€ to play in multi , you don't want it youy don't buy it. Easy peasy lemon squuezie :)

I already said that, if you are playing in different slices of time why even have MP in the first place?

We won't even get into the fact that 90% of the actual gameplay in KSP is either building ships in the editor or making maneuver nodes.

If you disagree then you don't really play KSP, you just fool around. There are already plenty of games to fool around with your friends in, go play one of those. Development time and resources are finite, any effort on MP would take away from SP which is the focus of the game.

You play the same slice of time , just at different moment ,sync with your mate , if he is in the future , u pressd a button and , done. u are at the same time than him. So what's wrong with you? ^^ "Development time and resources are finite, any effort on MP would take away from SP which is the focus of the game." FALSE ! Why? Squad have sell to TAKE TWO who have a lot lot of money (Take two is Rockstar BTW GTA etc u know?? ) They pref to do a DLC with history mission of no one really care seriously. I didn't buy this sh** 15 € but i will buy a Multiplayer/coop DLC package at 30€ , what's important for a company like that ? Make dollars after all , and the game have a really fan base multiplayer. So what are they waiting for ? One other game like KSP with multi/Coop? And if the game was multi/coop , why don't have the choic to play in singleplayer or multiplayer/coop , everyone will be happy.

right now, it seems like the only way people would use multiplayer is:
Player1: oh hey Player2 wanna go do some KSP multiplayer and look at each others ships bro?
Player2: ye sure
P1: oh wow cool ships bro
P2: yeh you to bro

and then it will just be like that for the next 30 minutes, maybe they play again tommorow, then they never play multiplayer ever again, cuz it has no long term appeal. thats currently what i think the multiplayer mods for KSP are like,

i have no idea how they would make a multiplayer version of KSP that would have long term appeal and still be like the current multiplayer mods.

I play in multiplayer , and you can do everything im multi , up a station , do a rendez vous in orbit , it's awesome. I really much like to play this game with my mates and dooing stuff together , thanks to docking. And yes we can tweak your game to be more difficult , like put the science value under to 1 and money under to 1 etc... you can do something cool when you want it. Using a TAC life support and something like that to do supply missionetc.... everything is possible, when you really want it. And multiplayer have to be like coop or VS depend of the mode you play. You can make game mode like "Who is gonna be the first on the moon in ten parts" you know its an infinite things .... what's the point to play alone at KSP ? no one will show your things , u re the only one. Do you have more satisfaction to do something alone ? do you congrats you alone to be the Space Master ? U know what i mean. Have a good day :)

Sorry for my weak english

it is fine that you have bad english.

i reccomend typing things in more paragraphs like im doing now

it looks weird to people who are native at english when you type things in different paragraphs, but it makes it easier to understand for other people if your grammar is bad

i dont feel like talking about multiplayer right now, maybe i will tommorow

OP's original argument that game isn't worth it without MP, is obviously just opinion. game recieved many awards over the years, and regularly hits the bestseller list, with *just* SP. I don't think they're hurting for sales.

I have over 3000 hours in it and haven't once thought that what I needed was more humans. not once.

Op if the game gets multiplayer imma connect to your game and cover the local system in flags and debris to make it impossible to click on your own ships

U can't , cause whitelist ,cause it's private server right now. And they have dekesller who is removing debris. Hahaha Nice try kiddo

DMP and LMP permit to warp individualy. You can also sync yourself with other players. You can also build a mun base in cooperation. And meet in same time. But yea still some bug, but they aint that much a problem. So if someone want to play MP go with these 2. I dont go there all the time. i like single more. But flying with other and sharing design and flight capability is also fun. Take what exist (DMP,LMP) if you want multi. And learn what can be done and not done. Enjoy!

I am sick of these muti player people. How about multi-player solitaire?

if all debris has a command pod or probe it's not classed as debris by the game. If it incorporates different control points (probe, cockpit,pod) it covers all default icons used to identify ships on the map.

Secondly, I'm aware how DMP and Luna work, but OP doesn't want DMP or Luna. He wants Squad's MP. I stand by what I said, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

what kind of swear is that? i had 2 guesses before clicking reply to reveal it, and first guess had the first word right.

Multiplayer for a game like this would just be simultaneous controls. You could EVA control each astronaut, perhaps, and even separate ships, but due to the way time control works, either the host would have to be the authority over game speed or game speed would have to be trivialized somehow.

It would be a lot of fun. Especially for simultaneous craft control.

Unfortunately, we still live in the early 2000's, and most game developers are like: "I don't really want to put any thought into multiplayer, let's just do single-player for every game everywhere that isn't competitive or puzzle-cooperative. We're too cheap and lazy and we got all their money already, and if we need more we can just pad some pointless DLC onto it so we can keep taking our 6-month-long vacations every year."

It's a tough industry to get into, yet uninspired game devs continue to excel.

this game doesn't need multiplayer
