Eve: Valkyrie is being developed at CCP Newcastle who's primary role is new technology support mostly backbone stuff and I think they're also the server babysitters.

CCP Iceland : Eve, Company HQ
CCP Atlanta : World of Darkness, Publishing Center
CCP LA: Business center
CCP New Castle : Eve Valkyrie New Technologies. Servers
CCP Shanghai, Eve China, Dust 514

... Does the sun set on CCP at all?

Correct me if I am wrong but doesn't it seem like what dust needs most is new technology and backbone structuring? CCP doesn't seem to be able to live up to their promises for dust on the current tech after all.

Newcastle just supports all other studios by developing and researching technology, so things they do effect ALL games from what I understand anything from better engines, to shader techniques and net code optimization and development tools to that unity engine that is likely most responsible for the EVR. There have been some pretty amazing tech being applied to the two known games so far from CCP, I mean Dust 514 is the first unreal powered game, that to me didn't feel like its unreal powered at all and that's how far removed Dust 514 is from the original engine.

That reminds me, does CCP have any plans to either upgrade/change the engine if possible? I know that developement for dust began when unreal was still relevant but it has been outdated for years. If anything it seems like get another thing hiding this game back from its full potential. It's too bad CCP lacks the cash/resources to crest their own graphics engine developement crew like the one that made frostbite.

Is their any possibility of hiring 3rd party devs? Preferably some that are already experienced in fps games? I would honestly pay a subscription fee for dust like people do for eve if 3rd party developement came in, put the game back in beta (free) for a couple months and released something that was actually anything close to what CCP originally showcased.

But the PS3 couldn't take it so they had to switch to a cheaper engine like unreal. And i remember them saying a while ago that ex DICE members were going to help with Dust. you know DICE the guys who made battlefield, but i dont know if they work there or not.
