CCP are a bunch of thieves and liers. I sunk 1,000's of hours and 160 dollars (20 of it just a couple of weeks ago) into a game that was in perpetual beta all for the promise that it would get better. Now, I find out that you are going to abandon it!?!?!?!? Yeah, I said it, I've worked in software for 15 years (8 as a product manager), so I know that a small dev team cannot maintain two projects that directly compete. You can lie about keeping development going on dust, but the truth is that you are scrapping your beta for a new beta project. Even if you do maintain development, anyone who prefers PC gaming is gong to leave so all the Eve players that bought PS3s are going to abandon Dust which will shrink the player base to the point where matches won't be playable.
Having my stuff transfer over to Legion is MEANINGLESS because I more or less never play PC games and I will NEVER play a PC FPS.
If you have any scruples, you will refund the money that everyone sunk into dust. Otherwise, you are genuine thieves and i will curse the name of CCP every time I discuss video games with anyone until the day I die.

I mean where were the advertisements for it.i hope Ccp makes advertisements for this.i just happened to stumble upon dust by accident.i was just looking for something new to play on the playstation store.im happy that I found this game.but know I need to buy a computer for this new game......
I had to buy a new PS3 after my first one died and it came with a free pack of digital goods including a booster. That is what got me to try it out. Guys at work had heard about it from game review sites. Unfortunately, all of those reviews were on the negative side. Not outright trashing the game, but overall not good.

Guys at work had heard about it from game review sites. Unfortunately, all of those reviews were on the negative side. Not outright trashing the game, but overall not good. Ya...all of the reviews i saw were negative or like you said but.i just really hope Ccp makes advertisements for legion.but since it's going to be on PC.it might go to steam.so maybe it will get more popular.
the free to play model and hardcore niche games are much more normal on the PC, and more eve players will be tempted to play it if they don't need to buy a console, so I expect that legion will do better. I would not expect it to be hugely popular because it will still be a niche game and from what I've read CCP is not particularly good at making well realized games. COD is massively popular because it is more widely appealing than dust ever could have been.
Frankly, as much as it pisses me off to know I invested heavily in a beta of a game that I will not play once it moves to PC, I actually think it is the right move. KBM and controllers never should have been allowed on the same game both because of the difficulty of balancing the two and because CCP would have had a hard enough time doing one of the controls right, let alone the debacle of them handling two of them.
