Hello Everyone

[TheUssLoliChan]

Hello there, well anyone who wants to see this post.

As this is my first post on this forum, I think it's a good "long read" of who I am as of now. And that is a common theme with me, long writing.

Well, I have played many games as most of everyone has, mostly the games I played were War Thunder, DRG, BeamNG.drive, KSP/KSP2, ARK... hours going from anywhere of 20,000-25,000 hours in war thunder, DRG having 500, beamng around 2,000 and at least in KSP 2 1,000+ hours before FS! Update came out, and stopped playing around the 1500 hour mark past that..

KSP itself is a little bit harder to put down into numbers, as it has been a very long time since playing it, but a safe bet of 4,000 hours, this doesn't make me an expert at the game, as I was mindlessly playing it..

I helped KSP 2 with bug reports and attempted to refine my craft with bug reporting, so it was easy make and to understand, also helped finding bugs when it was possible.. I helped create some of the largest crafts KSP 2 saw, even if the game wasn't happy to "deal" with it. Also helped create a behind the scene wiki that never saw the light of day.

Finally, I decided after the loss of KSP2 that I needed to find another game to enjoy and see grow, and to play. After hearing about KSA for a few weeks, I decided to join the Discord after watching/reading up on it.. And on 05/11/24 i joined the discord, and general is used for my third screen "background"...

As with the hardships of KSP2, some of my talking points might be repetitive, and in the class of "when the contributions are enough, we might see it in the game." It isn't out of being silly, just I want to see the best for this game, even if what I talk about is not "extremely" important..

Such as:

• Weather of all types and sizes
• Sun having "life" to it, with volumetric plasma, weather, or events
• more SMALL craft parts than stock ksp/ksp2
• Solar Panels of more sizes (as iirc there won't be modular/custom creating solar panels)
• "Onion Drives" Orion Drive engines (KSP2 did this)
• KSP 2 "future" features like "colonies/resource management/shipment lines"
• Sounds/Music (wanna hear the house shake!)
• Engine Smoke "staying" and launching and landings being more "real life"
• Sounds are working far away, and simulated delays/more engines actually give more sound differences/louder etc
• Ships "working" without human touch (physics bubble/automation)
• IVA's/Parts
• Lights
• Kiwi's being used as the labor force for KSA, or pets at the same time... ( this is truly fake lore for me as i know dean wants kiwis in the game)
• "The Worst Teases Of Upcoming Stuff"

And just a few other ones, and this isn't to try to cause problems, but due to the experiences with other space games, and what they lacked, and some is what I WISH to see, but I will admit here that I do have a fixation on things (read between those lines I have problems), and I hopefully will keep it out of most talking as i already know mostly of what i said is in the "hopefully, soon:tm:, perhaps".

Real life things I enjoy that aren't related to space or video games:

• Solar System/Power Independence from the power grid and things alike
• The pipe dream of building a home
• Heatpump Mini Splits!
• Reducing the cost of power usage in homes
• talking or learning about different HVAC's systems
• Building PC's/Researching
• Portable Power Stations (i call them UPS's), (use one for my pc)
• Security Camera's
• Video Recording Settings (watching a pc burn)

The best way I like to live is "expect I know nothing, be happy I know something almost correctly".

CANNOT wait to see further development of KSA, I hope that the game goes well and goes beyond what other space games are as of now!

And I cannot wait to read more introductions or at least try when I have a chance! want it to be where I cannot read all of them! (and this one is most likely far too long)

I'll enjoy the show if it is a failure or a success, as I have seen games end "peacefully", or "abruptly", to "was good and then greed took over"

You mention you enjoy HVAC — have you seen Stationeers, also by RocketWerkz?

I said I’d buy Stationeers at some point in an early discord conversation but as someone who used to work in the field as a certified HVAC tech this comment has moved up the date I’ll buy this game. Gamifying that part of my brain will be really fun, best to buy straight from their website yes?

The link on their website will take you to the Steam page. Technically, they end up with more of your money if you purchase the game on itch.io

I'd buy it wherever it's most convenient for you, and that's probably Steam in order to get updates / achievements and so on.

yes I have, I watched quite a few lets plays of it, and that is with the newer updates.. I would like to play it, but I feel like I wouldn't be able to play as well as I should .

When I get some actual "gaming" free time ill try to grab it and get the game see how well I can play it.

You get a steam key with the itch.io purchase, so the only reason not to is the 2 or so extra euro you need to pay on itch.io.
