SSMS2 ?

[Mogget]

I haven't used SSMS07 for several years! I decided to wait for SSMS2 (because of the superior Earth graphics and other improvements), but it has obviously been a lot longer wait than I had expected.

That's the best we can all do at the moment.

Just a wild left field question, but I was perusing the last (sniff, wipes tear...) press package and noticed that there were some notations that said "OV-105 Only" next top some switches. Will the individual vehicle FD's replicate this level of detail? 

[Richard R]

yep. the hours for this game maybe long and the learning curve maybe steep. but holy moly is it fun

I agree. Its great to still having the Shuttle Program (at least in the Cyber World) Still going.

The only real major difference between Endeavour and the other Shuttles would be the GPS bank of switches (the older Shuttles had TACAN switches there) and the number of cryo tanks, so you would see different number of switches for those.

I think it was stated further back that SSMS2 will include all of the missions in SSM2007, and a batch of new ones (including plenty of ISS missions). It would be nice to be able to fly lots of ISS construction missions, right from the very start!

Cthulhus, no screenshots, no videos, no news...nothing ?

You promised new screenshots and videos last March

Hi, kenralyon!

I think the SSMS2 will cost the same as the SSM2007 which is $50. @cthulhus: how is the SSMS2 coming along? I'm really looking forward for trying out the SSMS2 on Christmas of this year! Thanks!

Before anyone jumps all over Vinny about a Christmas release, no dates have ever been confirmed as far as I know, and cost is mere speculation at this point.

Hi, guys!

Thanks for being calm! The new SSMS 2 is worth waiting for! It is better to have the SSMS 2 released virtually bug-free than have the SSMS 2 released early and found out that the SSMS 2 is buggy!

Vinny with all due respect, this is all pure speculation.  Due to lack of communication we do not know if delays are to eliminate bugs.  We do not know if the final release will be bug free.  We do not know how far along in the process they are.  We do not know if it will ever be released.  We do not know much of anything.

I second this. If development time had a direct correlation with stability and polish, then Duke Nukem Forever would not have been as terrible as it ended up.

In software development, if you wait too long, you can get into this vicious cycle where you work for so long, then technology changes, then you have to switch engines, and the thing never makes it out the door. This is what happened for a long time to DNF, and there is good reason to believe this is what happened with Half Life 2: Episode 3.

That being said, I would very much look forward to SSM2, and in today's current gaming climate, they could go the crowdfunding route if they so chose. However the expectation to that is to give early access, beta access, and regular updates on the development.

I hope we get to see such things happen.

Vinny, at this point, I'm not convinced anymore that it's better what you say. Only my opinion

The strange thing is that we do not know anything about everything.

I'm also quite convinced that 99% all of us is thinking this.

Said this : I look forward SSMS2 will be out asap, even if a beta or a trial.

..Think about it, this would be the best option for all and - above all - for SSMS2.

...as they say, just my 2 cents

Cheers
