Personally i think we should get a couple more Dust updates, nothing to big, like put in some ****** AI for us to shoot for fun. While the majority of the team like 70-90% of the team working on EvE Legion. And after about 6 months, move the entire Dust team onto EvE legion. I don't see the benefit to supporting a game that is destined to be ultimitly inferior to EvE legion. But keep the servers up until public beta please :)
PS Please don't post rage against EvE legion, there is no point, besides spamming hatred at a hopefully beneficial discussion. The PS4 games in my sig are much better options then talking about a project from a company willing to scam its players. Do you realize it's possible to invest time in more than one game?
I don't know if that's ever occurred to you, unless this is some console-only thing that I haven't been made aware of where you can only dedicate yourself to one game or face the wrath of a thousand neckbeards.

Yes. They should just drop DUST and go at Legion 100%.
I would rather see Legion be up to speed in 6 months - 1 year than continue getting half-assed updates to DUST.

Yeah of course, but they're keeping a ton of the assets from DUST 514. They're not having to completely rebuild a lot of the dropsuits, weapons, sockets, etc.
I'm sure they had much higher res assets stored away knowing they would eventually transition. Most of the stuff in DUST right now is probably just downsampled models and such. When considering that art is a lot of the times one of the largest aspects to overcome when building a game, it doesn't become unreasonable to believe a Legion Alpha could come in 6 - 12 months. Also consider that they no longer have to jump through nearly as many hoops as they did before, as Saberwing has stated.
Developing for the PC is waaay more streamlined than the PS3. We will be able to see weekly updates instead of the bi-monthly updates we see now. EVE has it's major patches but it's constantly having small patches in between each cycle. I'm sure Legion will be the same when it's developing and goes into Alpha/Beta.
It may take longer, and I would honestly not mind as long as they can actually pump out something close to what they've been talking about for the past ~5 or more years.
