Sony has bent over backwards to help CCP, they even allowed CCP to break rules that they have about PSN. At this point in the life of the PS3 the middleware tools are outstanding.
The problem is simply put, cheap chinese labor. Zipper was not a large studio, and by no means was it Sony's A-listers. As stated by the devs, they heartily modified just about every part of the UE3 engine, and they did this with the absolute cheapest labor they could find in china.
No, CCP is running un-optimized code on the PS3 because at heart they are PC programmering company , and as such are just horrible coders. (want proof, go look at how many times CCP has had to re-write eve's base code.
Break?
More like re-write (bending over backwards is correct in this assessment) and experiment on the ground that Sony has a desire for a MMO Console environment. Something MS is going to be behind on this go around. Because of that even warframe still has to deal with the same rules that sony has conceded on so far; their updates are a month behind from the pc version; bug fixes addressing serious bugs can take up to a month to see adress. And there is STILL performance issues on the PS4; a powerhouse of a machine unable to run warframe as smoothly as my computer.
Based on analysis 2015 is not going to be a terrible year to put out a purebreed ps3 game. You'll end up like the well unknown shooter Black at that point. PS4 adoption rate is phenomenal surpassing ps3 and all other console hallmarks. Remember how fast the original xbox died? PS3 is on the track for the quick death. Xbox360 and wii u is going to be the slow to die platform this go around. The fact there is cross games now instead of exclusive games for either or spells doom already.
Zipper is dead; even their post death game didn't get funding. Also I have never enjoyed a socom game ever; there was something formulaically wrong with every title they had to the point it was off putting.
Majority of the Shanghai team responsible for dust 514 are not the locals. Also any fool thinking that console developers are not PC software developers before are total idiots. That's like citing ignorance over the fact that majority of jrpg story writers didn't start off as jdating sim writers. Everything has history and there are just so many blemishes people want to forget so quickly.
Take Zipper for example; go play a socom on the game cube and be appauled.
