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.
basically what i see happening here is like EA putting a new battlefield out then after a few months saying " oh by the way you cant play on PlayStation/Xbox any more that last patch will shut the game down on ____ date every one has to play on pc now" or the same thing with cod
those player bases would never stand for it so i don't see why we should have to
(yes i know we share some of the same player base and yes i know they paid for the games but i have also paid into this like many others have)
Actually it is more like EA announcing a new Battlefield game and that the previous one's servers would be shutting down in the future. Of course the playerbase would never stand for it, oh wait they regularly do.
What did you really think would happen with any long term development plan for Dust? If they announced Dust on the PS4 then there would be a chunk of the community complaining that they didn't want to have to buy a PS4. Instead they announced that it will, essentially, move to PC and we have a chunk of the community complaining that they don't want to have to buy a PC.
I would like to see as many resources focused on Legion as possible but given the different engine and likely different technical requirements for working on a title for a PC platform I don't see why some of the team could not continue to work on balance patches and small new content for Dust for as long as people are willing to pay for Aurum to support them. There will likely be differences in team requirements between Dust and Legion that would allow for some unneeded team members to continue to work on Dust.
