is ksp 2 dead

Maybe. Another company just bought the IP so we'll have to wait and see if they'll revive it.

All they have is the rights to the IP.
Without the original team or the source code they will have to start again from scratch.

Nah, not really. KSP2 is built on Unity, the same engine as the first game. If they own the IP then they can use all the source code from KSP! (the same thing KSP2 developers were doing) and KSP2. They have a headstart but it's up to higher authority whether or not it will come to fruition.

KSP2 is very dead. Why would the new publisher throw good money after bad?

They almost certainly have the source code, since IG was owned by T2 through PD. Same with the Roll7 games. I've never heard of a deal like this that didn't include the source code when it was owned by the seller and the seller was still in business.

That being said, Haveli has no real reason to do anything with KSP2. It's simply not worth putting further money into. They might license the rights to a KSP3 game out to an interested studio (presumably RocketWerkz is looking into that), but I suspect they have more important things to do, profit-wise, right now.

It never lived.

There's a distinct chance this project is DEAD dead. How amazingly unethical to even charge for it as a "pre-release." No one has come out and said, specifically, that this game is still being worked on and will be completed. If that hasn't been said, it's dead. To think I broke my rule about pre-release purchases with this one, wtf was I thinking.

Edited a word

the thing is, this game has now been downvoted into oblivion, so they if at all, they might build a new game to give it a fighting chance.
I'm really sad this didn't make it.

[Straightupnoob]

The haters that hate this game will just buy it -> review punish it dead into oblivion just because it's a KSP2 reboot -> refund the game -> go on with life. They will destroy it's reputation because they can because that's what gets their jollies fluffy.

So true! Might be a hard sell on Steam for sure.

IF they reboot the game as another game they will probably just launch it on Epic Games instead where there's no review system.

I'm still salty what the community did to this game here on Steam. We could of had a revival from this new company and continued development here on Steam. But because of what everyone did to this game's reputation on Steam now that probably won't happen. If people hadn't review bombed it to death then it might of had a chance. But not now.

Do you have amnesia? Do you not remember your own posts?

This not you?

No it's not worth the money. It's buggy, nothing works, everything is slow, laggy, and in general it's useless. It's like Kerbal Space Program 1 but with all of the fun features (science, career mode) removed.

I wouldn't. You will regret it.

Why does every one thinks that the game would not be continued? TakeTwo gave a statement thtat the development of KSP 2 is not in danger. They likly move it to another studio...

Maybe because this game was already stalled / halted development then later handed to another studio 5 times in the past before it even reached steam, which this now makes the 6'th time that happened?

5.5 years in development and 6 different studios and for all that time and effort all we have is a kerbal space program sequel that is at least 2-3 years beyond the original game in terms of features and parts, still largely unfinished and buggier than the original game was during it's early access. It's not looking very great for this game. Even if they do continue work on it, it won't end very well.

Heard that one before. We are in 2022 her and these planetary graphics need a TON of work. Delay until 2024 if you ask me.

Personally I think this entire game/project/whatever is dead and will never release at all. I don't think there is any KSP2. I don't think it's being worked on at all. I think it's all a lie. That's just my thoughts and my opinion though. I have no basis for my comments or my thoughts. I'm not claiming it to be true / a fact. It's just what I think about it.

I see you're still quoting comments from other threads out of context just to try and slander me in public. I hope the moderators will do something to you this time. That's violating at least 3 steam forum rules in one comment.

The game is dead and the forum is full of Kitten bullcrap fanboys. Don't waste your time. You want a good and technical space simulator, go play reentry. Worth every penny. :)
