The problem with players and game developers are the middle area:
Game developers usually aren't people skill and when they play a game they are perceiving game faults and imperfections based on their own experiences and expectations of what the game is supposed to do.
Players know nothing about the coding of the game or what is "supposed to happen". They will however take every chance to exploit or "take advantage of" the game however they see fit. You need only look at what happened recently with Elder Scrolls's mmo game alone.
CCP not only is horrid at PR and conversation but really lacks the engagement aspect. When Final Fantasy 14 bombed hard they fired everyone on the team and brought over a new person to man the ship. One of his priorities? Writing a letter and doing a public Q&A every month. It's actually amazing to see how planners don't see it from our eyes and can typically shut out our experiences. I also think that while the player base has expectations that can't always be met, ignoring them and not saying why won't make it go away.
Legion sounds like a nifty idea but it's still Dust repackaged: a FPS shooter MMO? Wouldn't that amount to something like Aion with guns basically then? They have to really really understand as it seems to not even hit them that those who play FPS games aren't the same breed that typically play MMO's; they exist but it isn't as big of an overlap. This is one big problem about FPS games developed as an mmo. You see it in Dust and you'll encounter it in a different variation in Legion.
This is just the weirdest of not biggest *facepalm* of a move I can think of. If Dust can't even make it past 2 years, how reliable can I really trust Legion now? I've had Emerson alarm clock radios with better dependency than CCP at the moment and that's not something that makes anyone budding with confidence... |

Just a few minutes until "More Sand in the Box for Dust 514". We'll find out if they'll actually be talking about Dust 514 or if they'll just be talking about Legion again.

If we just sit silent and do nothing, what you said is exactly what will happen.
As long as these forums are here, we need to keep pushing at CCP.

Quick update:
CCP Praetorian, when asked about updates to Dust, replied that we should "give them a few weeks" in order to determine where they want to go with the game.
Not sure if that would have been my answer, but he also alluded to how strongly they're trying to be vague about everything, so at least he seems to realize how frustrating that is.
Also, shout out to Zatara for asking the question.

Read the damn article and quotes that i told you about. Go watch the "dust" skills question period. He answers the question perfectly. Dust is done, the team is leaving dust for legion. All of them are. No more dust. |

The comments seem like damage control to prevent Dust customers from making a valid case to Sony. Based on recent promotions and events one could easily conclude they hope to wrestle a few more dollars from Dust players

Dust is dead, legion isn't close to begin released. CCP made a mistake, they taught people would go to PC and they were wrong. They said all there focus is on legion and dust is dead. They said it three times. Three times.
They thought they could get away with killing dust and they were wrong, the game is dead. They've known it for 6 months when they told the CM's and Dev's about it at a round table discussion. They said they were getting out of dust to go to PC. The last 6 months they've just been maximizing profits by having booster events or selling cheap gear because game is over.
Sony owns all the data rights, CCP will not be carrying over any data or rewarding players for money or time spent. Face it, they screwed you. There is no hope, CCP is just going to make excuses for people to keep playing dust and giving them money until legion is in beta phase. |

im betting that CCP might implement a subscription fee for "legion" because that way they can milk us players for even more money after screwing us over in dust.

Upgrades to current game mechanics and character migration have both been confirmed.
Also, Project Legion has not been "green lit" by Hilmar. It isn't even a confirmed project.
