Thanks I am not going to play GTAV. But not because I am a "fanboy", I am not getting GTAV because I am scrapping my PS3 on PS4 release.

Thanks Grand Theft Auto isn't really my thing. Also, the two games are completely different. If anything, I'd just be splitting my time between them.
J3f3r20n Gh057 Molon Labe. League of Infamy 51	Posted - 2013.08.22 00:33:00 - [5] - Quote Gta V is a threat fo my poor social life...
Maken Tosch DUST University Ivy League 3693	Posted - 2013.08.22 00:38:00 - [6] - Quote If by "threat" you mean taking away the murder taxi drivers from Dust, then I don't care.

Thanks I pretty much quit dust...i will come back when matchmaking is implemented and people can't run around invisible, to see if i want to keep playing. That said while i have been quit I played Hotline Miami (got a few top 10 in the whole world on some levels) and GTA 4. But yeah...i played those games cuz i wanted to play something. They did not take me away from Dust. Dust pushed me away so i did something else. GTA 5 will be the same. Matchmaking i think would allow me to play Dust more casual...no reason otherwise why I can't play both.
ZeHealingHurts HurtingHeals Seituoda Taskforce Command Caldari State 377	Posted - 2013.08.22 00:39:00 - [8] - Quote Oh yeah, it's totally going to kill Dust just like those other releases did. Don't you all remember? He is the core gamer, the bastard child of the casual and hardcore gamer. He invests the former's effort and cries when he doesn't get the latter's results.

What's wrong with playing both?

Let's face it, ppl who play dust play it becuause it s not cod or bf or even gta. will ppl play gta? sure some will. will it damage dust counts. sure for the first half of the release week.

sixteensixty4 CAUSE 4 C0NCERN 73	Posted - 2013.08.22 00:48:00 - [15] - Quote Im looking forward to gta single player, as i am gt6, but thats not where i'll get my fps dose from, i'll pick up a ps4 just after i delt with xmas, but i'll still have my ps3 up and running for dust and other things apprantly, ps3 has 70 mill odd consoles out there, not to mention all the casuals that will pick one up once its cheaper none the less, i would love to hear a dust on ps4 announcement
Michael Arck sephiroth clones D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 596	Posted - 2013.08.22 01:06:00 - [16] - Quote No. The majority of the kids will go to GTAV I believe. Now while I like GTAV, I've honestly haven't been playing any other game in the past two months besides Dust.
Green Living 0uter.Heaven 780	Posted - 2013.08.22 01:09:00 - [17] - Quote I will play both.

Scrapping PS3 for PS4 after Christmas. Play PS2 until GTAO comes out. Play Both until DUST gets ported. Plan gaming library from there.

Thanks I'm not impressed by GTA V, and I still enjoy Vice City. Saints Row IV takes up my time when I'm not playing this. GTA V is meh.

Serimos Haeraven Deep Space Republic Top Men. 425	Posted - 2013.08.22 01:45:00 - [24] - Quote I'll admit, I'm probably going to be away for a while when GTA V comes out. A few months, most likely. But i will still get on for important events like PC's for my alliance and whatnot

Edit- Well, anyways, I just get a PS4 for the Next gen of games. All the Companies are now going to move to the PS4, and I want to try to avoid jumping on a system at the end of its life-cycle like the PS3 and the 360
Dust Project 514 Pistol King 235	Posted - 2013.08.22 01:53:00 - [28] - Quote Yes. I will be jumping ship once Sept. 17. It's toturing me to wait at the moment, while trying to continue to tolerate this game. Dust has kept me busy since open beta, but it's been a drag for too long and I feel GTA will make it better.

I have been waiting literally 4 years for this game to come out. I can remember when i used to google search "GTA V" years ago in the smallest hope there would be news of it starting to be developed, and now here we are, with GTA V on a full pre-order and less than a month till its release... So it's no doubt why I'm so sure I'll be so pulled into the game.
J'Jor Da'Wg KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 890	Posted - 2013.08.22 02:00:00 - [30] - Quote I really don't think ANY game will be "The End" of DUST 514, but rather time will slowly win a war of attrition in CCP doesn't step up and really get DUST moving. It won't ever die, just become so small of a playerbase as to become truly irrelevant. You will always have a 1000 die hard fans playing but thats not newrly enough to support a game like this for any length of time... And we are already at around only 4000 players at any time, its not far and long for those players to simply quit playing...

Greasepalms Ahrendee Mercenaries EoN. 176	Posted - 2013.08.22 02:28:00 - [31] - Quote why not play both? I will.
Lance 2ballzStrong SyNergy Gaming EoN. 3480	Posted - 2013.08.22 02:32:00 - [32] - Quote When The Last of Us came out the population dropped drastically. So yes. Then a couple months later, PS4. So i expect DUST will have at least 2000 people less online everyday.
Zeylon Rho Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 2001	Posted - 2013.08.22 02:33:00 - [33] - Quote I've never liked any of the GTA games. They're a lot of style over substance, and they seem to be an excuse for Rockstar to get celebrity cameos. I guess the radio stations are sometimes good? The actual driving mechanics have always been so floaty and unsatisfying though. The combat has never been even remotely good, and the missions and what-not get pretty tedious fast. For a sandbox game, I think I preferred Just Cause 2 for vehicles and combat and Saints Row for humor. GTA has good radio stations... there, I'll give it that. Of course, I can save $60 and play my own music. Won't be picking this one up.
Rynoceros Rise Of Old Dudes 534	Posted - 2013.08.22 02:37:00 - [34] - Quote It is an increasing threat to me populating Dust. It wasn't so much at first, and I'll still have to get my hands on it and wait for player reviews, but it's really piqued my interest with the last video release. I haven't touched GTA since SA got ridiculous. But, being able to go bat guano crazy with/against a gang of other haters just sounds ******* fantastic.
pyramidhead 420 89th Infantry Division 0	Posted - 2013.08.22 02:39:00 - [35] - Quote gta has been meh since gta:sa. gets real boring, real fast once the campaign is finished and the hackers ruin the already weak multiplayer

Raymundo Kagestad V Sinq Laison Gendarmes Gallente Federation 19	Posted - 2013.08.22 03:23:00 - [37] - Quote Hm...Possibly. The PS4 is gonna dwindle it the most though. And the XB1, but...You know, it's all relative.
Gene Gene Intara Direct Action Caldari State 0	Posted - 2013.08.22 03:52:00 - [38] - Quote Every game from now to xmas will take sizable chunks out of dust pop. Eventually sometime in april of 2014 dust will be shut off, just 3 months after MAG (the game dustards hate) and that will be satisfying for maggots.
Keyser Soze VerbalKint Holdfast Syndicate Amarr Empire 551	Posted - 2013.08.22 03:54:00 - [39] - Quote Every game is a threat to Dust by virtue of it not being Dust. Oh btw Plants vs Zombies: Garden Party = Dust killer. Just sayin.
PIanetsideTwo Bomber Expert Intervention Caldari State 3	Posted - 2013.08.22 04:06:00 - [40] - Quote Definatly will take around 15% of dust player base lowering the max around 3500k daily after GTA5 then plummets every release thereafter. PS4 competition will kill dust pure and simple, need new players to succeed, dust got no new players.
