if it's in the plans for 2014, you'll hear about it at fanfest...

Stop asking, it's annoying.

Really hope it doesn't release on PC. Although, I understand it would be much better and would reach a much larger total market opportunity. PS4 porting in one year or so might also be a good choice.

if they migrate to Ps4 and get Sony to put this game as a freebie on the front page and help them advertise, they would get about 100 times the number of players that they currently have

But with our current core mechanics it would be a deathwish. PS4 doesn't change a bad user experience into a good one.

Re: Moving to PC. Another deathwish, imo. In DUST we're going to be playing for big stakes and working for and spending other player's money. The botting and hacks that come with PC would prolly destroy any credibility the nullsec strategic geopolitical warfare had.

Why?

Because who is going to stage logistics, coordinate dirt & space side forces, arrange 24-hour rosters and commit resources that originated in the labour of corp/alliance mates and might represent hundreds or thousands of hours collectively.....when the outcome of big fights is decided by who has the best bots?

CCP just need to add to the start of the game "NOT PORTING TO PC"

id never put much thought into it but i realise, crappy PS3 can hardly do 30 (if it does 30)
and my new computer could do it at 500+ frames

Wow... reading all this comments i can't help feeling that most of you don't really understand the PC world..Is a completely different community.

Not point to even try to explain why... just read this forums.....

What is this "PC world" you are speaking of?
You mean the "PC master race" faglords in their own little niche of the internet?
Or do you mean the actual PC players who actually play video games instead of jerking of over their hardware of choice?

All my competitive experiences, as well as 99% of my total online playtime (Dust is in fact the only exception) have been on PC.
I played RTS competitively, took part in modding efforts, participated in alphas and betas, beat various kinds of DRM schemes, own an expensive Logitech mouse and saw entire genres rise and fall.
Am I part of the "PC world" according to your definition? Do you even have a point to make or did you just feel the urge to post?

The only thing that I know is different about the PC community, is the fact that those players aren't incredibly antagonistic when it comes to text chat. The aversion to the idea of even making text chat viable in this game, is an incredibly strange quirk. I really wonder if it's the same for other console FPS communities.

if they realese it on PC al the ps3/ps4 users will leave.

The question do they gain more than they loose?

I don't have the awnser to it and it's a risk CCP has to take into consideration.

As a ps3 user I can only say if they put this game on PC then I am gone

Been playing PC games for very long time.. and in all my years of experience i never seen such a immature, childes community.. Of course my experience with consoles games is more limited.. JRPG's mostly...Dust 514 was my first online console experience, and most likely my last.

I come asking for news about a possible PC release.. and i get this crap..

Protip: Use less ellipses. Your writing style lowers everyone's opinions of your posts.
That's an honest tip, not an attack.

Yes, this community is ********. But if you want to see really bad online communities, you have to look at MOBA, which are PC games. I wouldn't touch those with a ten foot pole. Probably related to the incredibly low skill ceiling of those games.

I hope you realize that PS3 is hardware from 2005.
It's surprising that it even manages 30FPS.
There's nothing crappy about that. I can guarantee you that your PC from 2005 would not be able to even get 10FPS on this game.

That's why PS4 would be so useful.

I almost spit up my coffee laughing at that. I mean ...just ...wow, can't believe someone actually said that considering that CPU/GPUs processing capabilities have pretty much increased 2^3 in power since the ps3s release.

What risk ? Dust 514 is hardly hitting 3,000 players in peak time ...even terrible MMO's in the PC get double that amount.
