The true disappointment is that 56 people lost their jobs because of the cancellation.
Even worse,some,if not all of those people could have been used to help make Dust better.
This is another reason why I don't play Dust anymore,and have completely lost faith in CCP. |

Also, why are you letting the development of another game that has nothing to do with the Eve Online universe affect your judgment on Dust 514? They are not even development by the same office.
I'll tell you why.Because their bad decisions will have a direct effect on the product of Dust 514.They obviously have too many irons in the fire which is more than likely taking away funding for Dust.
EVE is their bread and butter money maker,no one can dispute that,but other than that,I'm willing to bet that at this point,they are losing money on their other ventures.
Dust is hanging on like a loose tooth at this point,and isn't really bringing in any cash for them anymore.They just cut loose a game that was floundering in development,probably because they were hemorrhaging money from it.And mark my words,with the new Facebook deal for Oculus Rift,Valkyrie could be in a lot of trouble.
People getting fired,people mysteriously leaving(wtf happened to Laurino? Will we ever know the full story?),games getting shut down.How the hell can you not be worried about Dust?! |

CCP's vision now is enriching the experience of New Eden, which means new gaming properties that are connected. That means Dust and Valkyrie. They don't want all their eggs in one basket, and they want to enrich the experience so that they offer something unique when some other developer releases a spaceship mmo (*cough* StarCitizen).

Citation needed.
Just look at the amount of players from when it was at 9k when it was "launched" to now,which is never more than half of that.
There aren't any new real players coming to Dust,just people abusing the system making new profiles to send themselves ISK.
It's pretty basic economics.No new players means no new money.
