Of Dust 514?
Given it is to be reborn with legion (every indication is that legion WILL go ahead), why announce it so soon?
If legion is as early in development as they would have you believe, how long is it that we must wait to play our game again? Sure, Dust 514 is still online, but for me, playing it seems more a lost cause with the announcement. You basically told me that support for Dust 514 is to be stopped. No more updates, balancing, ect. With so many glaring problems still prevalent in the game, the only thing keeping me going was the idea that things WOULD GET BETTER WITH FURTHER UPDATES.
Yes, we wanted more transparency, but DAMN, that was awfully transparent and hardly helpful for us on the ground. While I fully understand that cutting Sony out of the picture will help enormously, WHY so soon? Basically, you have one unfinished product, Dust 514, being replaced by another product just in it's infancy.
While I do support and look forward to legion, I can't help but feel a little shafted as an active member of the community. Yeah, everything is up in the air right now, and I ask WHY?
My thoughts, give the green light to Legion. Then, come up with something for us, the playerbase, that have stuck with you for so long in support. A special thank you, that would keep us in Dust. Give us incentive to continue to play, as well as incentive to play the new legion.

It is the end of DUST 514, yes. Hopefully it is not the end of the idea that was DUST 514; the connection, the large battles, the importance, all that hype that we were pushed.
Am I annoyed (not really mad anymore) about how it was announced and the stunning lack of information? Oh yes and I think I will give the next developer I see in person a very angry look and crop dust them. Not explaining what Legion is during FanFest and just leaving us in the dark about what this meant for our game is really quite poor. Bad form CCP. I am nervous what it means for my SP, BPO's, AUR, and character name (I have less isk than I do SP so I really could not care less about that) in regards to Legion.
The worst thing is that everyone in DUST is pretty much a nihilist; we don't care about capping out, or playing, or trying to get more equipment or grabbing territory in PC (at least not from what I have heard from friends). Nothing we do in DUST matters anymore because of Legion.
From what I can tell, behind the scenes Legion was seen as just DUST 514 so they figured "announce it on the DUST 514 keynote" and you have the devblog saying the game are completely separate projects and will coexist *snickers*. Unless everyone just went "we like DUST 514 as an arcade shooter more" and the gaming press went "meh, who cares about CCP's first person shooters", neither of which happened, CCP was going to green light it. If they don't now, everything about DUST both as it exists and the idea it was meant to be is completely complete dead. How dead?
'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This game is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-VIDEO GAME!!

I think CCP went to PC so they can have 100% of their ****** up, buggy ass code
Console cant expand there game cause they will sooner start frying the console with bad codes than finish the game
CCP makes me physically ill
