Oh wow what an act of principle.

They folded like rice paper.

What else could they legally do?

And what would that have solved?

Well CCP would understand the gravity of their mistake, and the player base would have known something was up and stopped wasting our money on this piece of abondonware

the only thing CCP is abandoning is the PS3.

And it's console fan base. CCP screwed us over hard. If the CPM where so powerless to stop this, then what the hell was their purpose in the first place? Better to resign that be the embarrassment they ended up being.

Who is to say the CPM didn't want EVE: Legion? I'm pretty sure most of them did want EVE: Legion.

Which is exactly why they should all be fired

Why? Because they actually care about Dust 514's future and don't share your selfish opinion?

Yeah, gee, that's a great reason to force them to resign.

Do you need a history lesson? The entire point of Dust on consoles as opposed to PC was a new player base, tapping into the gamers who are intrigued by stories from EVE but too intimidated/not dedicated enough to play it. It was a way for them to have an impact in the virtual universe of EVE without watering down EVE so they could play that.

This move is purely for EVE players. Legion will become just another expansion for EVE in 3-4 years when it actually comes out. Legion isn't a step towards the vision of dust, its a betrayal of the entire point of dust in the first place. Who was the CPM? PC gamers who couldn't represent that vision or keep CCP focused on it. They failed their job and don't deserve apologies. It's not my selfish opinion or ego at stake here, it's the soul of Dust thats been killed to appease EVE players who don't understand how brilliant the original idea of dust was.

It doesn't matter what the original intention of Dust 514 was. The fact is that moving Dust/Legion to the PC is the best thing CCP could have done for it. Console gamers might not like this, but them's the facts.

IF CPM members started resigning as a whole, CCP would be FORCED to address the issue.

No, CCP would then either abandon the concept of the CPM or hold an election with the same end result (or even worse, as the current CPM would be unable to say the new CPM who to talk to at CCP)

Asking for the CPM to resign is pointless.

Almost as pointless as the CPM is in the first place.

Then I feel sorry for you. You are either too narrow minded to see the genius of the CCP that was, or maybe just choose not to to keep all this convenient for you.

Why would they step down when Dust is finally going to be able to achieve its potential on the platform it should have been on from the beginning?

Every single one of them that has posted has said the same thing, they were all shocked and angry (like you are) then they realized how good it is that the game is moving to PC (like a few of us realize now)

That is right. You have all failed us in spectacular fashion.

The fact that not one of you stepped down when you heard of Dust's back-burner status (you know, a type of protest you could do without breakingthe NDA) just shows that you do not have DUST'S INTEREST and her community at heart.

Seriously now.

Especially Iron Wolf Sabre, I have never met a greater enemy to our playerbase than IWS.

1) the CPM don't work for you. they are a sounding board for CCP.
CCP: "cpm, how wil this go over with the players?"
CPM: "badly"
CCP: "Okay, thanks"

2) dust was gonna die with or without the CPM the PS3 platform can't handle dust's size, they ran out of room so they switched systems. you can only optimize it so far.

ever wonder why no one from the console community was selected? CBJ and Quickgloves have had more influence than anyone in this game yet the MAG vets that brought thousands of people into this game were overlooked.
