So if CCP is sticking to their guns of being "laser focused" on developing for the PS3,this game is most definitely doomed.Oh,and the whole "five year roadmap" is pretty much out the window as well.
CCP,it's PS4 or bust for this game,you have to know that,right? |

Besides, that's LONGER than the ps2 lasted...MUCH longer. Even though the ps4 would be better for the game hardware wise; they wouldn't move it over instantly because of that, and that just gives me all the more reason to wait a while before I get a ps4. I won't be buying one unless it has DUST on it. ._.
What are you talking about? the PS2 was finally discontinued January of last year,which was just over 12 years after the first console hit the shelves here in North America.If the PS3 goes another four years,that's 12 years after it's launch.Math fail. |

I'll take that bet,with real world currency too,not ISK.
There's no way that the mobile market is going to dominate the console market.While it is successful,it's not going to lure the hardcore gamers away from their consoles and PCs.

Dunno, search it.
Hey,you made the statement,you have to back up your claims,because I'm calling BS on it.

Mobile is going to eat the console market alive in under two years. moble? i almost spit my food out from laughter. get real kid, only 10 year olds play games on mommies ipad. and OP is a fool if you dont think ps3 will being going strong well past 4 years. free online play is huge for people with little money or kids to young to have a consistent cash flow moble.....hahahahah, is that you onya?
Might be going,but not strong,and I didn't write the article so WTF are you attacking me for?
My point is that if PSN on PS3 goes away,and CCP is still "laser focused" on the PS3,then they need ot get their heads out of their asses and work on getting this game on a console that can actually handle it's high demands,and they need to get working on that yesterday. |

There's no way that the mobile market is going to dominate the console market.While it is successful,it's not going to lure the hardcore gamers away from their consoles and PCs. Sure thing. Look me up in 2 years. Hardcore gamers are on PC already. Consoles have, for their existence, been the low hanging fruit, i.e the cheaper, easier, lesser alternative to PCs. Guess what fills that niche now? yeah mobile. All the AAA developers are already in the process of transferring their development to where the most possible customers are - mobile. That means you're going to be seeing a lot more ports from mobile, i.e. Android, onto the consoles, just like we've seen for consoles -> PCs for the last decade. Console users are already the minority in terms of numbers, and worse yet, they're now sandwiched between the high end PC users (small number, but willing to pay a lot) and the mobile users (very large numbers, but willing to pay less). this trend is only going to accelerate as mobile becomes more powerful. How old is an "old" mobile device? One year? Two? Consoles can not maintain a 10, or even 5 year cycle anymore. By then, Mobile devices will out power even the current generation of consoles, let alone, the last gen. I'm sorry, but Consoles are on their way to niche much faster that most people realize. This is just one of the reasons that Dust should move to PC. The PC high end will likely survive for much longer.
All of that is good in theory,but the one thing that mobile gaming still has to overcome is that their games are designed for smaller play sessions,mostly due to limitations with the battery life.Mobile is made for short sessions like riding on the bus or train to work,or sitting on the toilet taking a dump.
The other problem against mobile gaming is why would I buy a AAA title to play on a 5 inch screen,when I can play a AAA title on the $1000 50" LED TV in my living room?Mobile will never,let me repeat,will NEVER pull away that MASSIVE audience.Actually,let me rephrase that,mobile will never take those dedicated console gamers and turn them into dedicated mobile gamers. |

Your first point is good, but it's pretty easy to plug a mobile device in, and there are wireless charging systems as well.
As for the small screen? Hmm, Rift? Just one example. Another example would be just, you know, output the video to a "TV" or any monitor. I have a Droid X that's more than a year old that has an HDMI output, and that's not even assuming wireless transfer.
None of this really matters though. I'm not super interested in arguing about it per se. I'd just like to point out that the PC is a better target because it will likely weather the storm better. Having said that, Dust is a UDK engine game anyway, so porting is relatively easy.
And re: Galaga - at least it was a star at some point. Dust has never been a star.
I don't think we are arguing about it,rather having a pretty good debate.I just don't think that mobile gaming will have the technical ability to complete with current gen consoles(PS4 and Xbone) in 2 years.Maybe in 5,but two years seems way too soon,even though mobile phones and tablets have been progressing super fast.I think we'll be hard pressed to think we'll ever see a game like BF4 on PS4 running on any mobile device with the same fidelity that we see on console. |

CCP,it's PS4 or bust for this game,you have to know that,right? Doesn't mean much. PES 20142-4 years of of support from SONY, the console is not going to stop working in 2-4 years. CCP can support the game for years after that if the want to. The PS3 is still the best place for DUST, if we ported over to PS4 right now it would probably kill DUST for good. Any steam box or enyo isn't going to hurt PS much, Xboxone isn't up to par and I don't think they will be going to PC so we are here and are probably going to stay here for the next 2-3 years.
Well,it will mean a whole lot if cutting support for PS3 includes cutting PSN from the system so they can focus more on support for their PS4 infrastructure.
If that happens,and I'm just speculating,that will unabashedly mean the demise of Dust if it hasn't moved to PS4 by then.This,and this alone is the entire point of this thread.
