someone asked about CCP's plans for PS4 and the guy mentioned that there are 80M PS3's out there so their "laser focus" is on the ps3. Seriously.....CCP has no plans or intentions on converting to the PS4.
That worries me because it touches on the common sense of the people who are building this game. There are 80M PS3's out there because the PS4 has not yet been released. The PS4 is debuting at only $399...that is less than new model cellphones when they hit the market. Why does CCP think that people won't buy the PS4? How many people still play on their PS2's??
The PS3 is going to be a dead system in a matter of months and CCP has a few years plan on it? That worries me because how do they not see that pushing for the PS3 is a fail idea? As much as I enjoy dust.....no way will I be unhooking my PS4 and then hooking up my PS3 for a pc match or to cap each week. I won't be getting the PS4 at launch but it won't be too long after that. I'm not going to be going through that trouble of switching systems just to log onto dust. I already have too much congestion with my pc, ps3, Hauppauge, cell phone charger, internet router, etc. I have to use two extension cords......something will give. |

they have no intention on going to the PS4..at least not for a very long time. |

So please do not assume anything. Do you know what assume means, it means making an A** out of u and me. I have more important things to worry about than the PS4 for example, if interest rates will rise sending this fragile economy into a tailspin or if obozocare is going to gut the rest of the working class out of there last dime.
If you have or had any AUR, then all of the stuff that you're talking about as far as real world responsibilities are null and void. |

And just for the record......look at the player base numbers for dust. When the PS4 hits, do you think that the numbers will stay level, drop, or rise? Do you think that Dust will get new players after the PS4 hits? |

You can say what you want and be in denial as much as you want. Dust probably won't die to the point where you can't even get into a pub because numbers are that small. But you can be certain, that the playerbase will dwindle when people start buying PS4s and dust hasn't converted.
Cause like I said, judging from the show, they are not even pondering the idea to come to the PS4. Where will dust get new players once people start really purchasing the PS4? |

One cannot be certain unless one is a time traveler. Playerbase will dwindle...that is inevitable. As far as it dwindling to obscurity, no. As far as Dust just dying because PS4 released, no.
Dust will get new players. Not everybody is selling off their PS3 to Gamehustlestop to get PS4. There isn't a great migration of gamers and PS3 is left with only 4 gamers. Plus, in every generation, some kid always say what you say.
You're in another world...good luck to you |

WTF are you serious how does spending 20$ on a game even come close to spending 399$. Thats like saying if I bought a cup a coffee a day or bought myself lunch I am some how wrong?????
Everyone has a budget of what they could spend for entertainment. If real world responsibilities are that much of a burden, then spending any sort of money on a free game is backwards.
Who goes out to purchase a PS3 if paying bills and making sure our children are fed are that much of an issue? Yet...here we all are. Those that can afford the PS4 will most likely buy it and those that can't will not get it so early. Either way, point is dust's playerbase isn't likely to increase if they have no intention on going to the PS4. |

You throw some dirt my way and I throw it back, now I need some ***** and need to calm down? You acting like a chump. And I'm not your fam, homie the clown.
saying that you're in another world is hardly offensive. But anyway....I'm not going back and forth with you, especially if you really thought that I consider you fam enough to try and correct me lol. And with the "homie" the clown statement, I already know what I'm dealing with. |

I'm not going to give dust a deadline....but I do know that I am not looking forward to (and don't have intention to) unhooking and hooking up my PS4 and PS3 when I do purchase a PS4. If there are no PS4 games that I enjoy like that, then that'll be reason to keep the PS3 hooked up. |

Assert Dominance wrote:Lets be honest, what games other than dust will you commit yourself to dubbs? Bf? Killzone? Destiny? Cod? I dont see it that happening lol. The ps3 will be likely just as relevant as the ps4 throughout the whole ps4's life cycle. This isnt a ps2 to ps3 technilogical gap. Ps4 is simply slightly upgraded glorified ps3. Games wont be running 60fps locked and graphics will be similar. Look at killzone 3 then killzone 4, even killzone 2. As far as dust goes, it wouldnt change at all on the ps4. Its not made for the ps4. It would be "ported" = same game different platform. Same engine, same devs, same developement process, same playerbase.
KZ4 looks interesting...and I definitely wont be playing BF4 on the PS3 when I can play 32v32 on the PS4. |
