2) Are you completely abandoning DUST dev?
No. Without promising too much, we are actively working on stuff like balancing, Planetary Conquest, matchmaking, the in-game economy, and more. And of course we continue to work with the CPM to identify ways to improve the game.
...
4) When are you going to give us more concrete information on Legion?
Again, Project Legion is still in an early stage of development but the whole idea behind giving a sneak peek at Fanfest is to get early feedback - and I really want to keep this discussion going, show you progress through dev blogs and such and listen to what you have to say.
Please post your feedback and questions in this thread - and let's keep this conversation going. The team and I will be reading this thread, and I will respond as soon as I can.

In response to #2, you had a full team to work on Dust, failed miserably to attempt any new material over the course of the last year and now tell us that devs have been working on Legion for months, why should we believe you when you say that there is actual work going into the game? The full team couldn't even finish off the weapons, vehicles and dropsuits until 1.8 (vehicles? who knows when). Now with likely less than half a team working on it and a total of likely around 40 million dollars from Sony pissed away you expect to make it better with a small cadre of people?
In response to #4, until you can say plan to have a computer with X specs to run the game on Y date no one here wants to hear about project legion and is still feeling jilted about not getting a DUST 514 keynote speech, don't laugh at us, some of us still believe in CCP (very few from what I can tell). You already have a whole forum section filled with the ideas of people who have been around since closed beta and you still don't understand what we think? Maybe Bungie can do a better job on Destiny (cross platform) than CCP.

I want to address the concerns about character migration from DUST 514 to Project Legion if it goes ahead. There has been some concern about what I meant by GÇ£applicableGÇ¥. We are looking to migrate everything we can about characters from DUST 514, including names, corporation membership, skill points, assets and ISK. We have not yet decided how this would translate to the new items and progression system in Legion, but we want to make sure that the time and effort you committed in DUST 514 is carried over to Project Legion.
I wanted to address the questions about what type of payment model we are looking to use with Project Legion. I want to make it free-to-play, but it will be slightly different to how it is in DUST. I want CCP Z to cover it soon for you guys in a dedicated dev blog.
When it comes to DUST development I can tell you that we are currently looking at changes to Planetary Conquest, further iterating on item balance after Uprising 1.8 and some matchmaking improvements; all of which will be deployed as server-side updates. We currently don't have a date set for when you will get these updates.
IGÇÖll do my best to answer more questions, and IGÇÖll also get other devs to chime in with answers to your questions. Please keep posting your thoughts and questions. I apologize for anything bad I had to say about this idea. Sorry, I was under the impression that SONY would take control of the IPR and hold fast to whatever characters were made using PSNIDs and feel that the product will be greatly improved by moving to the PC. My outrage was also based on the short life of Dust as we know it, although with the slow development of features and maps I know now that I have been expecting too much out of an always in Beta product and old console.
You wouldn't happen to have a mold I could use to manufacture a coffee coaster out of my PS3 (GOTY Ed.) I can't seem to get my coffee cup to balance on it right.
