2014 mentioned legion will be on u4, then yesterday the lead designer say sorry we meant u3. legion is on the same ten year old engine dust currently is on, that sounds like cutting edge PC tech to me.

well thats an MMO and i imagine theres some substantial differences between the coding and processing required for an MMO and an FPS and as someone who owns both the ps3 and ps4 version, the devs got the ps3 version to run by making it look like ****.

devs have already stated that they don't intend to use the unreal 4 engine.

Its unreal 3, They modified it. You should probably do some research before jumping to conclusions.

Here's the dev post on the forums.

Also zzZaXxx CCP failed on many promises for the console player base. There were many piece of equipment that were suppose to be deployed in 2013 like the stasis webifer, and the energy drainer. Everyone else who has commented mention their "laser focus on Consoles" and they did not mention bring Dust to PC (or in this case Legion as this is the first we have hear of this project).

Hatred is not geared towards PC platform or the PC community but how CCP decided that alienating a community from is "focused" platform to improve the game in a easier method is more important (which is their right as a company to do so, of course this will have severe ramifications now and the future to come).

Now is a PC platform a smarter move. Probably given how the PC is a easier architecture to design, while PS3 architecture is extremely complex. Notice how CCP did not use any excuses on hardware capability for the PS3? its because PS3 can handle what the Legion is capable of doing, but its extremely difficult to do so because of PS3 architecture is a ***** to design.

I don't want to pretend to know what I'm talking about, but

Well if you wanna take a bet I will take you up on it... Based on the fact he works with the CCP developers, he probably has the most accurate information and reliable given his position.

Edit: as a matter of fact, if he is not a source than Clearly the developers within CCP are not sources either. So yes I would quote a community Manager within CCP as a opposed to a guy on the forums who is just arguing for the sake of arguing.

Scroll up.

Saberwing says their engine is so heavily modified that there isn't much point in them going to UE4. That doesn't necessarily mean that it won't if something comes up, but it looks like their version of UE3 is doing what they want it to already.

But it isnt dust. Dust is a ps3 exclusive, as of now legion will be a PC exclusive. Tell me how the same game can be called something else, be on a different system and be the same game.

the game is the story, the features and how a game is played not the console it is on. legion will have all of what dust has with new advancements on every feature. change is not a new game its just plain old change. every single feature of dust, all be it changed in a small way will be in legion. that to any sane person makes dust, legion.

besides legion is the project name not the game name. who is to say it won't be eve dust514 : legion expansion

But the Arguments comes down to If one product has everything while the other is missing pieces why play the less quality based version? Essentially if one product is identical but superior is all respects than how is it not the same game?

For example Street fighter 4 vs Street fighter 4 Ultra. Two same games with two differences. See my point now?

So you're saying that because you can argue that Street Fighter 4 is still Street Fighter 4 when the devs admit Ultra is basically an expansion and not a new game, the same is true for DUST and Legion, where not only are the two games not available in the same format like SF4 and SF4U, but they're explicitly given different names and stated by the devs to not be the same game, and to incorporate very different core mechanics?
