Build the rockets you ever wanted

To be honest, my most liked part of the game is the sandbox mode where a good buddy (he is the much more experienced player) and I do compete in self-made challanges like "highest top-speed at the end of the runway" or fastet rocket. The graphics are quite fine for the game. Of course, it is far away from beeing beautiful, but it runs on almost any PC and therefore it is fine, as the look is not what the game was made for Building at staging spacships is, after some time, very easy to do and even for total newcomers quite easy to handle. Happily the menues got better in the last patches, before that it was a bit difficult in my eyes. Steering and controlling a space vehicle is kind of easy, but I would love to see multi-selection of the same parts, for example the landing wheels on a "space plane", as it is some kind of difficult to click them all by there own (yes i know that parts that where placed with using the duplication mode in the hanger do it all at once). There are still some kind of glitches in the game, but as far as I could figure it out, they are quite entertaining and far away from beeing a "gamebreaker". For me it is simply a great way to build the rockets or planes I ever wanted to create and of course to see if they would actually have worked as I planned them.

I still have to figure how physics work

Some say this game isn't for everyone. They're right, unless you're OK to make a supposedly simple rocket spin on itself and immediately crash after an eight-shaped looping, laugh hard, not understand what just happened, try again, get your very first Kerbonaut in space, deorbit him, and leave him stranded without fuel aroun the Mun. Then, you'll become frustrated and start thinking - and reading - hard about planet physics and stuffs like that. It can be frightening, and I hope it's gonna be rewarding. I'm still trying to figure how to nicely orbit something around Kerban. Atmospheric reentry optional.

KSP - it really is rocket science.

KSP is a great, flawed game. It can be insanely addicted and habit-forming, but also incredibly frustrating. Don't believe people when they say it's a game for everyone; it really isn't. What it is is a game for the dedicated perfectionist, someone who is willing to devote a large amount of time to mastering a very specific set of skills in order to succeed. Your first few hours with the game will most likely to excruciatingly difficult, and full of trial-and-error moments where you have literally no idea what you're doing wrong. But once you hit your groove and master the basic mechanics of the game, it can become incredibly rewarding. My advice to newbies is to go look at the wiki first. Join the forums. Look up the reddit. Immerse yourself in the actual community of the game before playing. Also go and subscribe to Youtubers like Scott Manley, who give brilliant tutorials on the basic game-play and provide inspirational examples of what you can accomplish in it. In many ways, playing KSP is like going on an international trip. You have to do a LOT of tiresome busywork - ordering tickets, checking passports, organizing luggage, learning local laws, etc - but it's all in preparation for a unique experience. Prepare well and you'll be left with an unmatched sense of accomplishment. Prepare badly and you'll be hitting that Refund button before the ten hour mark.

Rockets, whee!

Is KSP a perfect game? No, of course not. Is it the near-unplayable buggy mess it's sometimes made out to be? Not at all. KSP is a really sweet balance of hardcore simulation and tongue-in-cheek silliness. The game models dynamics, kinematics, materials stresses, aerodynamics, and orbital mechanics, all in a way that feels realistics yet remains fun to play. On the other hand, your Kerbonauts have two stats, "Courage" and "Stupidity," and their science experiments include the Mystery Goo Experiment and taking barometric readings in space ("The gauge reads zero," the game helpfully informs you, while rewarding you with sweet Science you can use to buy acces to more rocket parts.) It is just about the diametrical opposite of a casual game, however. After the first two tiny steps towards space -- launching your first vessel and launching one that can get out of the atmosphere -- you will enter a nearly never-ending cycle of trial and error. Getting into orbit is hard. Re-entry is hard. Getting to Mun orbit is hard. Landing on the Mun is hard. Landing on the Mun, taking off, and returning to Kerbin is really hard. And let's not get started on space planes at this point, those things require some serious work. If you enjoy this kind of thing, you will love, love, love KSP. There will be spikes of rage as your beloved creations flip out of control, get torn up by aerodynamic forces, run out of fuel somewhere far out in the solar system, or fail in many other exciting ways. You'll go back to the drawing board, figure out what went wrong, fix it, try again, and be rewarded with a massive wash of euphoria when your design WORKED: you made it to the Mun and back, sent a rover to Duna, or a probe splashing down in Eve's explodium seas. Bugs? Yes there are bugs. They are quite minor in the grand scheme of things: orbital rendez-vous calculation tools flickering wonkily, wheels failing when they really shouldn't, landing gear being unreasonably finicky about angles, parts refusing to snap together properly when constructing a vessel, requiring random punching of buttons to get them to do so, that sort of thing. At this writing (1.1.3) the biggest issue with KSP has to do with spaceplanes: the atmospheric flight controls are just plain bad, which makes the already hard process of designing spaceplanes even harder. Fortunately modders have stepped to the rescue, and Atmospheric Autopilot completely fixes that problem. If you like space, and building things, and watching things you built blow up, give KSP a whirl. You will almost certainly love it.

A Smart AND Fun game about Space, rockets, and physic

KSP is a game that will teach you a lot of things, a game that will invite you to learn about space, about physic and orbital mechanics, about how rockets work. It's not the real world physic, but the way it does the job is close enough to teach you A LOT and after hundred hours of playing, when you read some NASA/ESA reports, it's finally mundane. You played a game had a lot of fun (and kaboom) and now you UNDERSTAND what those guys are saying. What games can boast of that? Not a lot since most of educationnal games are usually boring with an atrocious software... It's a game who will teach you that mistakeS are the key of success and that failure is fun. It's a game that allows you to reach stars and planets the way you want, to fly and experiment your own design solutions. You BUILD your own Space Program. Want an Apollo like mission? Yeepikai! Do you prefer some Space X Falcon landing? Enjoy the reentry! Want to launch spaceplanes? Fly safe! No mention to its dedicated community (the best I saw) with so great modders making the game even better. There are TONS of mods. Tools to provide more datas on your rocket and flight recorders, parts mods to build better/bigger/crazyier rockets/planes/boats... Graphic enhancement mods to turn the game into a magnificent visual experience. Man, nothing is better than a sunrise while in orbit with a nice graohical mod, you stop playing, you just watch, breathless, a little bit less jealous of real astronauts who can enjoy this moments for real cause you have your own now. The game is HARD. Learning curve is steep and you'll beat the dust A LOT! But, when you reach the Mun for the first time, when you performe your first rendez vous and dock, when you land on another planet for the first time. You feel like the king of the hill. You DID it! It was hard but finally you did it and no other game gave me this satisfaction. Those milestone are sweeter than any other game experiences. This game worth every cent it costs.
