L33[08:58:08] <Mat2ch> Uh, Private Division has been sold by Take2

L34[09:07:28] <Deddly> Wait, what?

L35[09:07:32] <Deddly> To whom?

L36[09:10:34] <Althego> unknown

L37[09:10:58] <Althego> Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick told GamesIndustry.biz that the buyer would be named soon and said, “The team of Private Division did a great job supporting independent developers and, almost to a one, every project they supported did well. However, the scale of those projects was, candidly, on the smaller side, and we’re in the business of making great big hits,” like the upcoming Grand Theft Auto VI.

L44[10:09:03] <Mat2ch> rumors

L45[10:11:36] <Mat2ch> I have no idea what rkt works is.

L46[10:12:52] <packbart> RocketWerkz announced to make KSA with the old band

L47[10:14:07] <packbart> https://www.reddit.com/r/kittenspaceagency/

L48[10:16:02] <Mat2ch> is rkt works = RocketWerkz?!

L49[10:16:32] <packbart> I don't know. The comment you linked said RocketWerkz

L50[10:17:53] <Mat2ch> the source says "rkt works". Which is different from RocketWerkz. So the comment itself is interpretation of a possible leak from T2

L51[10:19:02] <packbart> I have no clue, who "LGAM2" is, though

L52[10:22:40] <Mat2ch> A friend of mine just told me that the owner of KSA has mad lots of money from the DayZ trademark. He created to first DayZ mod for Arma2 and sold it to Bohemia Interactive

L53[10:26:01] <packbart> yeah, in KSA, you'll have to evade zombie Kerbals and scavenge rocket parts from abandoned houses and such ;)

L54[10:26:12] <sandbox> I'd forgotten about Take On Mars

L55[10:26:40] <packbart> KayZ

L56[10:27:18] <Mat2ch> packbart: That could actually be fun...

L57[10:27:30] <Mat2ch> First person game please. So the immersion is much much higher

L58[10:27:48] <Mat2ch> scavange parts, run away from KerbalZ, launch off to another planet

L59[10:27:55] <Mat2ch> learn there are already KerbalZ there...

L60[10:28:06] <Mat2ch> because someone in KSP1 forgot them on a planet for decades!

L61[10:29:55] <packbart> they volunteered and knew what they were getting themselves into!

L64[11:11:03] <sandbox> !mission

L65[11:11:03] <LunchBot> You attempt to parse HTML with regex. Shapiro delays your data return.

L66[11:12:44] <Deddly> !mission

L67[11:12:44] <LunchBot> You mis-apply the #RaptorMyths hashtag. Your processor irradiates you, then explodes violently.

L68[11:12:56] <Deddly> Ow

L69[11:24:52] <Deddly> With the timing of the Rocketwerkz announcement and their mention that the name of the game might change, it seems quite possible to me that they are involved. Possibly an investor who has entrusted RW with the KSP IP but the deal hadn't been finalised.

L70[11:27:55] <Althego> hmmm

L71[11:28:16] <Althego> but the sale was for the whole private division, not jkust ksp ip

L72[11:29:54] <Deddly> Yeah that's why I think it's unlikely that RW are the buyer

L73[11:31:14] <Deddly> But a buyer who knows what they're doing would be crazy not to consider RW for the job, given the people and knowledge they have on board

L74[11:50:58] <Mat2ch> maybe the buyer re-sold the IP immediately for profit?

L75[11:53:52] <Althego> and a few indie devs good buy it for higher? i dont think so

L77[12:34:57] <Deddly> I failed to parse that

L78[12:44:04] <darsie> .

L85[13:45:35] <sandbox> !mission

L86[13:45:35] <LunchBot> You have the utmost confidence in the mission. You're sad you wasted your time even entertaining this stupidity.

L87[14:01:24] <packbart> sounds like some steps missing in the middle

L89[15:19:02] <Deddly> Either that or it was a stupid mission that was supposed to fail and be over and done with, but now you have to see it through.

L90[15:23:56] <Deddly> !mission

L91[15:23:56] <LunchBot> You believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people that do. Most people miss your (extremely impressive) livestream of the mission due to the large number of fake streams running cryptocurrency scams.

L92[15:24:35] <Deddly> Apparently the universe is also full of people who don't care.

L93[15:27:07] <Deddly> !mission add You send someone claiming to be Elon Kerman a thousand Bitcoins because he promises to pay you back double.

L94[15:27:07] <LunchBot> Added mission: You send someone claiming to be Elon Kerman a thousand Bitcoins because he promises to pay you back double.

L95[15:30:01] <Deddly> !outcome add The insurance payout makes you rich beyond your wildest dreams.

L96[15:30:02] <LunchBot> Added outcome: The insurance payout makes you rich beyond your wildest dreams.

L97[15:30:57] <Althego> .mission add You upgrade all doors in KSC.

L98[15:30:57] <LunchBot> Added mission: You upgrade all doors in KSC.

L101[16:43:58] <Deddly> !mission add You attempt to land on the Mk 1 runway.

L102[16:43:58] <LunchBot> Added mission: You attempt to land on the Mk 1 runway.

L103[16:45:22] <FLHerne> The lumpy one was quite funny; it was literally the worse piece of terrain to land on anywhere near KSC

L104[16:45:32] <FLHerne> t

L105[16:50:59] <Althego> day six, still on mark 1 runway

L106[16:51:03] <Althego> i dont need it any better

L107[16:51:13] <Althego> costs money to upgrade, there are more important things

L108[16:51:31] <Althego> but yes, there was a hsort time when it was literally better to land next to the runway

L109[16:51:41] <Althego> because it was flatter

L126[19:35:28] <sandbox> !mission

L127[19:35:28] <LunchBot> You discover a gravitational anomaly that's been floating around interstellar space for so long there's a planet around it. The government tries to shut you down, but you convert some of your tanks into tanks and hold them off.

L129[19:44:37] <raptop> Okay, that's almost coherent and could make for some silliness with a scifi show

L130[19:46:25] <raptop> !mission add You legalize nuclear bombs.

L131[19:46:26] <LunchBot> Added mission: You legalize nuclear bombs.

L134[19:52:32] <LunchBot> Signs point to yes.

L136[20:30:08] <Althego> one minute to end of day six. still one minmus biome missing

L137[20:30:35] <Althego> and i will need the tanker i sent after this to get back to kerbin

L138[20:32:13] <xxcoder> biome collection speedrun eh

L139[20:33:43] <Althego> there willl be a second mission. for experience and i got the atmospgeric thingie since then, and still missing the gravioli detector. and i didnt pack the eva science thing either

L150[21:58:58] <Deddly> !mission

L151[21:58:59] <LunchBot> D'ya know what happens to sausages left unattended for three million years? You are banned from proposing new missions.
