please keep it constructive. i am very angry at them too for this but change what we can change, live with what we cannot, be wise enough to know the difference. (yes i know what i just paraphrased horribly but it makes good sense.)

so i was replying to a topic about 1.9....i had a thought. why not make dust the beta for legion? i mean lets face it, dust has always been a beta; if not in name but in reality. close the so called gap between what dust is and what legion will be. i understand the technical limitations to this and some content would not be available but the actual mechanics of gameplay would be easily replicated. that would assist in a much more balanced and playable game when its first released.

it would also serve as reason for characters to keep playing, keep interest, and as far as AUR goes, keep the money flowing for ccp. call it exactly what it is, don't sugar coat it, but keep dust alive in that fashion. when the time comes for legion to open players could have the option to transfer characters over to legion in a much more fair and seamless way since the games will be much more similar. i know its kinda a crazy idea, like i said in the first place, but at least its a start to taking care of the dust community that has been sooooooooooooooooooo loyal to a game frankly didn't deserve it. what kept players here, what kept me here was the thought of what dust could be. please ccp, allow us to keep that.

A beta server needs to be hotfixable with little paperwork/QA bogging it down. Sony wants to approve every client modification before it can be released and CCP couldn't reach an agreement with them to bypass this so far, disqualifying the PS3 for this reason alone.

The fact that the two games don't share the same engine or even system architecture makes this idea seem not worth serious consideration.
