Quotes from some people making sense.

You want to know why people are poisonous? Because CCP lied to them. They built them up. The promised them so many things, assured them time and time again that they were focused, that this was possible.
Then you come in here and spout some garbage about how we should show the game support so it can get a couple more years?
Why, in GODs name, would we do that? CCP just ADMITTED that DUST on PS3 will NEVER be what it was promised to be.
If you want damage control, push for this:
Cancel DUST, completely. Transfer all assets that can be transferred, to Legion. Pull all funding for DUST, effective immediately, and push it into Legion. Close the servers. Do NOT act like DUST has a future. It does NOT have a "strong foundation" or "solid shooter mechanics". We didn't rage at this game being incomplete, because we were duped into thinking it would persist and improve. It is abundantly clear that that future will not come to pass on the PS3.
If CCP was smart, they would make an emergency press release stating that character names, accumulated SP, and all unspent AUR (boosters and gear that aren't used will be reverted to AUR, and refunded) will be transferred to Legion upon launch, with a special DUST VETERANs gift to go with it.
CCP shot themselves in the foot, and I'm in no mood to even urinate on the wound to clean it.

it is ccp's choice if they do not give us some means of transfer...they are building legion.. our characters are on tranquility ..i seriously hope besides forcing us to go pc to continue in the fps side of new eden..they dont also force our years of dedication to their vision to be for nothing.
i want my main to be in legion i want it to have some form of carry over i dont care about inventory i dont care about isk...
i want my sp ..or its equal in legion i have a very versatile merc that i have spent 2 years building
and im sure many others want this as well for their characters.
Otherwise you're just thieves, and you know it. CCP, you can still recover from this, you can still handle this the right way . . . well not the right way, it's too late for that, but you can still make it as close to right as we can be now. You're almost assuredly not reading this, but if you are, seriously, seriously think about the sense many people are making in the midst of all this frustration, distrust, anger, and disdain you have engendered.
If some CCP dev, say your new EA import, is trying to convince you otherwise . . . really, really think about how you all are handling this. There can be a compromise, but are you honorable enough to attempt one? Clearly we all doubt it, but some people are trying to work with you here. If you want to be a little Icelandic EA . . . well, keep it up. You're doing a great job of being as reviled, at least.
I challenge the community to post constructive suggestions on how CCP might correct things. Please don't make ultimatums. Please do not simply post f*** you, CCP. Please let this thread be constructive. Yes, CCP screwed the pooch here, and us along with it, but . . . but . . . let's at least try to be a part of the solution. Besides, there are hundreds of threads where we can take our pitchforks and torches already. If you read all of that, including the original posts I quoted, I commend you.
