 They usually do. Of course, many capsuleers go there just for the Icelandic scenery, the pub crawl, the Dev hang outs, playing Eve and Dust next to your fellow corp mates or random folks, going to the famous museum featuring genitalia of various animals (I'm serious, they actually have such a museum), trying out the local cuisines (rotten shark anyone?), and enjoying the tournaments they hold while in Iceland.

 They have said that this year they will stick to goals that are achievable
 
 i.e prepare to be underwhelmed.
 
 Not saying it won't be interesting but certainly they won't want to make the same promises as last year.

 CCP will spend a majority of the time defending the past year of bug riddled patches with minimal content develooment and trying to convince the remaining players that there is some hope left for the immediate future.
 
 I need to hear this.

 What 's actually going to happen!
 In our next patch, we're introducing the EMP grenade.
 Several more reskinned, different color suits.
 More "promises".

 If a PS4 release is not announced, will Dust 514 die on the vine? Most of the player base will probably hit 20M-40M SP this year and may run out of steam, losing the will to grind and continue paying for boosters.

 Dust is probably going to die. Let's face it.

 No. Possibly more promises that won't be fulfilled for years, and promises of finally delivering what they promised last year at fanfest. Otherwise, it'll just be a big publicity fair where nothing of substance is revealed to be ready for release.

 Let me answer that question with another question and maybe you'll get your answer there. Did Halo 3 die on the vine when Halo 4 came out? No. In fact, many people found Halo 3 still more enjoyable than Halo 4. Will Halo 3 finally die when Halo 5 comes out on the XBONE? No. Too many of my friends who are hardened Halo fans and dedicated gamers will not even consider buying the XBONE.

I would go to hang out with corpmates and whoever, have a fun time, maybe see Mittens pull some shenanigans, but most people wouldn't got for the announcements of stuff in-game. Personally, I think that if you're going to fanfest purely to get the latest news of development, you're doing it totally wrong.

 Excellent point. As I don't know much about either community of players, would you care to expound on the size of player base for both games and the differences between the business models?

 The deniers. I'm sorry that you have invested so much time into Dust and feel the need to defend the continuing existence of older gen consoles, but everyone is going to move onto the next gen console at some point in time (for me it's when I save up enough money).
 
 CCP missed an opportunity. Let's just enjoy the game while it lasts another few months (maybe even a year). The first step CCP can take to do this is to release all the content.

After realizing that CCP considered 3-4 guns to be "a lot of content", it dawned upon me that introducing racial vehicles and pilot suits would simply be too much for them.

 Did Incarna kill EVE? Naw it just turned into the business model of :never kitten do this again:, much like failrising is going to be.
 
 Honestly the DUST presentation will be BP's "we're sorry" from southpark, then Rouge saying it's not going to happen again, the talking about the market, vehicles being worked on, and then roadmap things like PC 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 along with maybe a better NPE and possibly a port by Christmas at the absolute earliest.
 
 All in all, it'll be enough to get us bitter vets grounded and interested, maybe not to daily log, but to not give up 100%.
 
 Also, I have a metric kitten ton of BPOs to sell. \o/

 According to blue tags, they realize they shouldn't make promises they can't deliver on in a timely fashion. I expect there to be a few big pieces of news regarding dust, but nothing mindblowing.
 
 However, if they did make huge promises, and then came through with them, that would be what would blow my mind.

 They should not make promises, and instead BLOW OUR MINDS at FanFest 2014 by showing us a major evolution of the game, not these silly patches we have seen so far. And release it 1-2 months later.

 With the release of Destiny beta this summer, Planetside 2 coming to PS4 this summer, the current morale of the Dust 514 community, the state of the game and where it is in the product lifecycle, does anyone think that this fanfest will make or break the future of Dust?

 Nah, I'm not in denial. We all know that the X360 will eventually get phased out anyways. We'll likely just wait until Xbone prices drop which is ONLY when the next gen is coming out and by then the xbone will have its kinks worked out and have a better game selection by then. But there is also the matter of principle. People like me will likely just stick with Sony and Nintendo instead and avoid Microsoft like the plague because of how Microsoft handled the xbox console.
