80M PS3 with 10k players is about one and 8,000 PS3 sold had DUST actively playing.
If the PS4 sold 5M on day one the we would lose a little over 600 active players IF DUST is downloaded on 1 out of every 8,000 PS4
No matter how you look at it the PS3 is the system to program for if you want to move games.
Sorry to say this, but I think that you are very wrong here.
CCP in my eyes, missed a very huge chance. It's not like they need to stop Dust on PS3s, they could have done it on both systems. Like Destiny or other modern shooter do the same. Now think about the hype for a moment, look how extremely well the PS4 is sold out. I know some people (me included!) who are having a PS4 at the very first day, without having games that are absolute essential. Why is that? Because the console gamers are ready for new stuff, we have waited some years now and the pure excitement for new hardware is big. So big that I buy the PS4 even if there are not games at all.
And now think for a second what would happen if you turn you PS4 on and discover a free to play shooter on the Network. What do you think would the people do? The new console owners? Seeing a free shooter? Yeah, they would download it and take a closer look at it.
Personally I know people who sold the PS3 to buy a PS4 and I know people who don't have a PS3 but already have a PS4. Now guess what? They would like to give Dust a chance. And now that we are talking about chances, Dust had it, they could have been there, they could have jump on the new sensation train and show some presents.
Now as it is, Dust is NOT present on the PS3, some PS3 owners didn't even know about Dust, yeah, the own a PS3, play shooter and never heard of Dust.
I'm a hundred percent sure, that CCP did a big mistake now jumping day one on the PS4. I'M absolutely certain about it.

Dude, it's lunch day. You realizing something or are you numb?
I personally would have bean surprised if the would have NO problems with the PSN.
We all know that this should have not happens, but I happens every time something big needs a network, like WoW, SimSity, Diablo3 and other network stuff.
Btw: The HDMI problem was solved already http://kotaku.com/good-news-about-our-once-broken-ps4-1464813671

Michael Arck I'm going to ignore you from this point.

I think it will take a little longer.
The PS4 have two lunch days. 15 Nov merica and the 29 Non rest of the world. This could extend the network problems if you ask me. (15 Nov. in Merica to farm some xbox marked shares)
Xbox One is lunching only in some countries on 21 Nov. this could lead to some very big network problems.
But actually I was hoping to see a Dust514/PS4 discussion here, I guess it is not possible without being called a occult member or some one pointing out that the PS4 is already crap?

I used to be on the front line of the forum war, but dust become so uninteresting, that even the forum wars become boring.
Like I said, was hoping to see some interesting stuff here, so CCP might read it and admit that they have done a mistake (not to us of course, to themselves) and start on working / finishing the PS4 version. I would be interested in Dust once more if it arrive on the PS4.
