On the PS3, there are literally hundreds if not thousands of games. Out of all of those games, do you really expect people to see Dust 514 with no adverts?
Now, use your brain for this one, what happens with a new console, with only 5-10 games? People get bored from those and then what? Oh wait, look at that, a free to play shooter on the PS4... I am getting kind of bored from Killzone Shadow Fall and Blacklight, let me see this... Hmm... This game sounds interesting... And there you have it, a new Dust 514 player.
Also, PS4 sold a million units on day one, Dust at best has 30k active players that login daily.
Now would be the perfect time to release Dust 514 on the PS4, where exposure would be the highest.
Note: No, I'm not pushing for a PS4 version, I'm just debunking the idea that because there are 80 million PS3's the game will do here better than on the PS4.
Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives.

But do we want exposure for a game that still has many persisting issues? That is true. But even with the bad exposure and a at best mediocre game got 30k players, it can't do any worse on the PS4, it could even do better.

They can't even balance the game or fix bugs/glitches that have persisted 12+ months. To be fair, PS4 is an easier platform to program for. At least we would have 60FPS @ 1080p. And increased player counts because much more beefy CPU.

Also, PS4 is just a PC with a nice looking chassis and a controller. I rather see dust on the PC. THAT would be exposure. For EVE players. Which is a zero gain system.

DUST is **** right now, crap modes, half the suits and vehicles missing, barely any weapons unless you like ARs
It would be an embarassment on PS4 Note: No, I'm not pushing for a PS4 version, I'm just debunking the idea that because there are 80 million PS3's the game will do here better than on the PS4.

Not really - I'm primarily a PC gamer, and EVE bores me...yet, I'm addicted to Dust. I think you're absolutely right that there would be some cannibalism, but the only way we'll ever know if the cannibalism would be more detrimental than the player gain through availability on the platform beneficial, is if CCP does it. I think it can be predicted very well. I think at best tranquility (Dust + EVE) will gain 1000 players in every hour of the day.

They're buying it because they think they need to have the newest, shiniest thing they can get in hopes of impressing somebody that probably didn't give a **** in the first place. I'm getting it for killzone, watchdogs, destiny and infamous. PS2 and Blacklight

Cat..... we don't want exposure right now. The game isn't ready enough. Right now only the hipsters play this game consistently, we need PVE, and improved FW before I think it would be worth trying to advertise this game. Hey I'm not a hipster! . . . Then again, I spend more time on the forums than on the actual game.
