1) What happens to my character, skills and stuff?

If Project Legion becomes something more than a prototype, we will not leave our DUST 514 players behind. You would be able to bring your character name, applicable skills/inventory, and other elements of progression with you.

I am prepared to get hated for the following statement: [:oops wrote:

I want to keep my name, that is all. Please don't transfer my 16 million SP or some people's 50 million SP over to PL!
Please don't! It'll be an INSTANT game killer for any new players. We already have a huge advantage, as Dust players, in understanding the maps, weapons, mechanics, equipment and general strategies within the game.

If you give the Veteran, Proto-Stomping Elite all their SP in the future game, they'll be an even larger gap between them and new players than there ever was in Dust: You'll carry with it all the problems that stopped new players from staying more than 5 minutes in Dust - into Project Legion - same mistakes - same outcome; failure.

When will CCP learn from its mistakes? And when will the community stop trying to kill its own gaem? Don't you want more players?

WTF is with the constant fanboy attitude of PC players? You chose a different system to game on, go you! To be fair it is primarily EvE players that act this way. Just because you have a tower instead of a console does not make you better than anyone else. Before you go ahead and flame me for being a console user, I have a PC also. The only difference is I am a gamer, pure and simple. I don't care what I game on as long as I enjoy it. Stop using your false sense of superiority to try and make yourself look good. You come across as a complete douche. Actually since we're making statements with no solid evidence, you ARE a complete douche.

I get if you don't want a discussion Rouge, but have some decency and don't say you will reply if you're not going to. There are a lot of good questions in this thread that are calm and well written that deserve the responses you said you would give. For someone who wants to keep the player base happy, you are doing a god awful job at it.

Think about it before flaming - Canis Ferox With any luck when Legion is released, they will have a working matchmaking system and larger player numbers. This means the SP gap won't matter. Newbies will play with newbies, vets will play with vets.
