They wouldn't dare stiff us, right? I don't trust anything they say after today.
How could you? I mean they LIED about the Dust Keynote being about Dust. They KNEW they were killing Dust. There are people who spent thousands of dollars going to Iceland because of a game they knew they were killing.
This sounds hyperbolic, but they are deceitful and there is no other way to put it. They could have saved people real world dollars by being upfront about this.
I'll never be able to forgive CCP for that. Not to mention the dollars I've spent on this game.
And Legion is a different game, the AUR issue is null and void as well as any problem they might have had with the BPO reimbursement.

I've spent more on this game than Sir Man Boy has. And I did that based on the history of CCP and a long development cycle.
If I was deceived as a customer in any transaction I'd be upset.

You're honestly going to tell me that your company is ok with that kind of business practice that nullifies what I've purchased, when all of your advertisement has very specifically encouraged on spending large amounts of money on aurum and stocking up during special weekends? That Dust was going to have a 10 year plan with all of the features you just transferred over to Legion?
You're really going to tell me that your management is undecided on this issue?
You'd better get an official, solid answer out there fast. That's a lot of wasted money, and I know a lot of people who spent even more.
This is where I'm at. And the fact that they've known about this for months while they put these items up for sale is ******* criminal.
They are crooks and there is no other way to put it.

Or maybe just a grown up with disposable income that he decided to use on something that he enjoys.

Why should I or anyone else continue playing dust?
Logibros comments indicate that they simply don't know enough about Legacy at this point to say weather or not we will be able to transition over from dust.
From my point of view the whole fun of dust is the community and the mmo fun of leveling your character. If you don't know how or if we will be able to transfer over to legacy with sp and assets why should we continue playing?
Im not saying this from a, "GRRR I'm mad at you!" point of view, but from a, "logic would dictate," point of view. If I don't know my merc will have any impact on the eve universe other then the current back and forth of FW,(which I do for the gear, not the story line, which could also be nullified if there's no character asset transfer), I would simply stop playing until I knew more, or essentially I would be wasting my time.
To be perfectly honest "We simply don't know," Is probably worse then just, No or Yes, simply because it de-incentivizes any ones reason to play until they do know what would happen.
I'm going to have to check with my corpies to see if they share my sentiments. I want to continue work with my corporation because we've had some fun times together, but if anyone of them hung up there dropsuits because of this announcement, honestly, I couldn't hold it against them.
I look forward to your response.
They didn't mind misleading Dust players into buying plane tickets to Iceland. Why not just make up a bunch of other stuff about Legion?
We'll give you all your SP and assets and you'll get to have dinner with the hot chick that's doing the voice for Valkerie

Just make sure I know which game you'll be playing. I don't want to be against you!

SP is technically easier. SP is more a design question, tied into how the progression system changes.
I can't speak for everyone, but all I care about is SP transfer. Assets I can accrue again quickly, but SP takes time, and I have invested aurum (thus, real world money) into boosters to have a decent rate of progression, and I want my money's worth.
This, I am willing to learn how to play with a m/kb

That's what it sounds like with every DUST presentation being about Legion. Weren't we promised a new build we could actually play at FF? What happened to that?
CCP is hedging about character transfer, but it's not a question of "can they?". It's a matter of "do they want to?"
As was pointed out EVE still gets new subscriptions with 10 year old characters in the game, so starting with high level players is either not a problem or it will kill the game inside two years regardless as new players gain the same level.
CCP really needs to admit their plans for transfer right now, or folks will have to assume they mean to let all your DUST toons die.
My assumption is that they aren't saying because they know that making the call to make DUST a dead end will turn it into a ghost town overnight. No, it's actually a matter of can we. There are technical questions and restrictions, policy questions (with Sony) and design questions (how do we convert experience when the progression system is different, items are different and ISK works in different ratios). When we can answer the questions above, we'll share with you. Trust me when we say we want to let people carry over progress. But we just honestly don't know if we can do so yet. you owe us refunds.... crooks.... Lol, how so? Did they somehow not give you what you bought? I don't think "never going to PC" was ever part of the agreement.
Up until they knew they wouldn't continue developing Dust 514 they did deliver.
Everything should have been centered around Dust players getting ported over for a year plus of support and in many cases in a financial sense in addition to many hours of beta testing for them.
They should have told us about it and made Fan Fest about selling this new project. By then the fury would have died down and they could have sold us on it.
I honestly can't think of a way they could have handled this more poorly.
