Maken Tosch DUST University Ivy League 8324	Posted - 2014.05.05 03:59:00 - [1] - Quote I'm in the third group as well. Honestly I believe that Legion should just launch as soon as @HilmarVeigar (Twitter handle) gives the green light at all. Since Legion is basically Dust on the PC with all the lessons learned from the PS3 version, it should launch immediately. http://www.digitalspy.com/gaming/news/a568488/dust-514-sees-no-planned-updates-scraps-survival-mode-and-vita-app.html#

It will have a beta period, fighting this is dumb. Major advantage for PC dev is no patch middleman, so builds / changes / fixes / whatever can be produced and delivered much more rapidly than pushing to the PS3 or PS4. No matter what you want, there will be an iterative testing period, and thats actually good for the product. I suppose you're right. CCP needs to make sure that Legion doesn't commit the same mistakes that Dust made. The BPO debacle back in 2013, the miserable launch of Planetary Conquest, the flawed FW LP store, the incomplete parity among weapons and vehicles, the terrible matchmaking (or lack of it), and absolutely no proper academy system. http://www.digitalspy.com/gaming/news/a568488/dust-514-sees-no-planned-updates-scraps-survival-mode-and-vita-app.html#
Maken Tosch DUST University Ivy League 8326	Posted - 2014.05.05 04:40:00 - [4] - Quote Since we're on this topic, I like to point out that once character transfers can be established from the PS3 to the PC, I will be completely ok with CCP converting my BPOs into vanity items like cosmetics for suits and stuff like that. Like many others, I invested money into those BPOs and I would like to at least continue to use them in some fashion in Legion. http://www.digitalspy.com/gaming/news/a568488/dust-514-sees-no-planned-updates-scraps-survival-mode-and-vita-app.html#

The PC was the only best option so far. Consoles, especially with the likes of Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo, are hindered by many things you and I know too well about. Frankly CCP should've started on the PC first when they had the chance and then migrate to the PS4 later on. http://www.digitalspy.com/gaming/news/a568488/dust-514-sees-no-planned-updates-scraps-survival-mode-and-vita-app.html#

You saved me a lot of typing. I'm in the 3rd group too, but what about the 2nd? For whatever reason, CCP decided not to make good on their original promises, so a partial refund of the money they spent seems reasonable and would help patch things up with their angry customers. I know some are saying nothing short of a full refund and the sacrifice of CCP's firstborn will make things right, but be honest: you've never had plans that fell through? And you had at least a little fun while playing. Isn't that worth some money? (Obviously, if one took this option their Dust character would not be transferred to Legion.) I don't have a solution for Group 2. I really don't. A refund of money would be nice, but I very seriously doubt that's going to happen. And frankly, there's really nothing CCP can do to fully reconcile the situation with people who belong to Group 2. I agree. There are already a lot of console players out there that will never forgive CCP no matter what CCP does to appease them. CCP can even cut a check to every Dust player in the game and still these people in group 2 will not forgive CCP. The damage is done and we need to move on. http://www.digitalspy.com/gaming/news/a568488/dust-514-sees-no-planned-updates-scraps-survival-mode-and-vita-app.html#

Fix the issues with Dust first, Legion isn't in a deployment state yet, so no need to rush getting that work done. Keep at least a good 80% of the dust team working on Dust and not Legion, in between major updates you can work on Legion. There needs to be an assurance that you will continue to provide a huge majority of dust resources to working on that game not project legion. I don't think I agree with this. Dust was already living on borrowed time the moment it because a PS3 game. The PS3 is about to become outmoded pretty damn soon and its hardware is just no longer enough to help Dust become the game we all once hoped it would become. Therefore to devote 80% of the team to a game that is already entering retirement is not the best use of resources in my opinion. Once Hilmar gives the green light, at the very least there needs to be about 50%-60% of the team working on Legion and then slowly growing to 80%-90% while downsizing the team for Dust over time. Besides, I have already decided to no longer play Dust on the PS3 as my character is now on cold storage waiting for the inevitable transfer to PC. http://www.digitalspy.com/gaming/news/a568488/dust-514-sees-no-planned-updates-scraps-survival-mode-and-vita-app.html#
