Kevall Longstride wrote:In my latest blog I ask a question that might not have as obvious answer as you might think.
The simple fact is a platform deployment, or any other attempt to get more people to try the game is pointless until the game is good enough for them to stick with it. In fact, since few people who decide they don't like a game try it again later, getting those players to try it prematurely could in fact be a very bad thing.

I don't think anyone needs to step down from their in-game roles to be a good CPM, as long as they have the right people in place to delegate things to in place.

I think it's no surprise that of all the candidates, Kevall as DUST Uni has a fantastic opportunity to engage with foreign players on the ground floor, and give them a place to interact. I'm quite thrilled those channels exist. :) I know personally, if elected, I plan to do what I can to bridge the gap for our foreign speakers which CCP isn't supporting well enough, I'm sure Kevall will as well. It's been a long concern for many in EVE as well that the CSM are generally primarily English speakers, so it's really critical that we don't ignore the worldwide playerbase.

I am a PC gamer. I have two high-end gaming machines here. I have indeed used the hashtag #PCMasterRace while not joking.
And I think releasing a DUST client for PC this year would be a mistake. I can separate my love of PC gaming from the real practical considerations of DUST releasing on that platform. I'd love DUST for PC, but I also love DUST too much to advocate them to release what I'd consider a mistake in judgment.

Sony would still be the holdup on a PC version. You can't exactly patch some players and not the other players. And a test server on PC wouldn't help with preventing PlayStation bugs. It just classes off some players as better treated than others. Given how bad DUST's bugs and QA are now, I'm mortified to consider how much worse that'd be with two different platforms in play.

Indeed. And CCP isn't going to abandon it's PS3 customers instantly either, so it also means coding and testing for both platforms simultaneously, which is twice as much work as they're doing now.

The largest concern, Kevall, is that the DUST community isn't going to survive for another year or more on hotfixes. They lied to the community and said this was a DUST keynote, and then announced Legion, which explicitly "wasn't DUST", and then walked off the stage.
The game engine might be more powerful, and the graphics might be prettier. But 75% or more of the community will be gone.

EVE players don't want a PS4 client. Ergo, there isn't one. I think it's been made painfully clear today which group of their players they listen to.

The highlight of this keynote was where three CCP devs repetitively stated their new focus was to have everything on PC. Otherwise known as "console players can shove it".

Yeah, I think it's a decent move. Since we know he actively players the game on live servers, he's likely to have a decent idea what the biggest pain points are.
