Dear enraged neckbeards,
I challenge you to produce conclusive evidence that CCP made ANY promise to the community that they did not keep. Let's start with the most obvious:
1. True or False: CCP promised that DUST 514 would continue to be developed on the PS3 indefinitely and would never transfer to another platform.
False. All their actions show that they intended to develop it into the future on PS3. Back when they decided to develop DUST on PS3 they undoubtedly saw an opportunity and thought they were making the best choice available to them. Then after Uprising revealed the glaring flaws in the game and how far their official release of the game was from their/our vision inspired by EVE, they started iterating almost monthly in an effort to to get the game to where it needed to be. No game in history has been iterated on so frequently and gone through as many changes and transformations as DUST has in one year.
So CCP made an unprecedented effort to improve DUST and, it would seem, finally came to a breaking point where they had to make a decision: a) accept the limitations of the PS3 and just make the best game possible within those limitations or b) remake the game on PC without those limitations so that it could finally become the game that they originally intended. They chose PC.
Now, first of all, anyone who appreciates how special and amazing EVE is knows CCP would be fools to settle for less than making the EVE of shooters. They couldn't settle, so they chose to move to PC. I wouldn't want them to settle, and anyone who would just doesn't get it. If you don't get it, learn about EVE and you'll start to see how important it is that DUST move to PC so that it can become a true MMOFPS integrated with EVE....or just move on to another game on console.
Secondly, they made this decision based on real technical game development problems which they have professional knowledge of and you forum trolls have next to no understanding of. Devs say, "Well we really need to move to PC so that we can finally start to do x, y, and z with the game and finally move beyond limitations a, b, and c." Forum trolls, not understanding the techno talk and just being plain mad, say "NO! You lied! You BETRAYED us! The 514 stands for May 2014! You planned this all along, using us as guinea pigs so that you could troubleshoot for the real game you intended all the time! I'm biomassing my clone and protesting naked!"
To think that they planned this all along or were trying to milk people of money with recent events before they revealed the truth is outlandish and paranoid. Flaming trolls along these lines are just embarassing, and most of the arguments and vitriol being spewed out on these forums by the raging disappointed are ridiculous and just make the community look like a bunch of immature, self-centered neckbeards with underdeveloped social skills. Produce a shred of evidence. They have clearly said, in effect, "Yes, unless the zombie apocalypse or some crazy lawsuit from Sony keeps us from being able to do it, we will absolutely ensure that you to keep all of your SP and inventory in the PC version."
Show some class and self-respect. A PS3 FPS forum is the only place on earth that you won't be b*tchslapped for talking all your crazy sh*t and throwing such rash accusations around, and just generally being obnoxious in response to these changes. Be grateful that CCP is doing what they HAVE TO DO in order to push DUST 514 past the realm of mediocrity that it has been mired in and attempting, at their own expense, to make it a truly great and unique game that will live up to the standard set by EVE. If you don't care about DUST meeting and exceeding that standard....bye.

TL;DR: Your'e wrong. Do me a favor: Go to youtube, search for 2012 dust keynotes fanfest presentation.
Watch the video - notice something? Like all the stuff coming out in 2013 that never did and are now going to be on a different platform completely?
Do you remember, "LASER FOCUSED ON PS3"
Stop being a fanboy.
Didn't read your post btw. But the line "Only on a ps3 forum would you get away without being... blah blah" was pretty stupid, do you even internet, bro? |

TL:DR!
But at the first thing. I spoke at a german community gathering at last gamecscom with @CCP_Praetorian. And I talked about future platforms. And he was like: "I can say nothing BUT you wont be dissapointed *smile*" So now on fanfest he deliverd. So yeah. They deliver.

I agree with all of this and I am happy CCP is trying to rescue a game I love so much when most developers would just cancel a falling game completely.
The ONLY issue I have with this whole thing is the way CCP handled the announcement. It was very shady and they could have done it much, much better. I think they need to upgrade their PR department in addition to upgrading the game.

Hmm lets see
1. 10 year vision for Dust- They said the game would be updated and improved continually for a decade.
2.Racial parity for vehicles and weapons- never happened.
3. PVE- Never happened
4. Ran Aurum events on a dying game- technically not a lie, but it is shady and misleading.
5."LAZOR FOCUSED ON PS3"
6. Fighters and jetbikes
7. Commander mode- Never came out
8. Player market- Never came out
9. Huge maps- Never came out
Thats all I can think of in three minutes. Im sure if I went back and watched fanjets from last year I could find at least ten more

I'm not going to read through all of this at the moment, but after skimming through I will say this:
DUST Players will show some class and respect when CCP shows and earns some respect. I'm not sure how your parents raised/are raising you, but I'm pretty sure most people were taught that they have to earn respect before they recive it.
Also, one of the many broken promises is a Player Market.
This may or may not be applicable, but I'll just link this video here

You really need to go youtube what I told you too before you make yourself any dumber then you already are. CCP has been lying for a very, long time. |

I agree that the way it was presented was not sensitive to what the reaction would be. But COME ON people! They're Icelandic neckbeards that stare at screens all day and fiddle with code! Yes, they should have better PR but they've basically come out and said, "Oops! Yeah we didn't answer some really obvious, glaring questions right up front. Sorry about that. Now that it's ONE DAY since then, we'll clear all that stuff up. Oh, and we really want your feedback as we move forward and want the community to be involved in developing the next evolution of DUST."
What do y'all do in real life when someone says, "Oops sorry!" a day after they got you all twisted and then do their best to clear up the misunderstanding?" Slap them in the face and say "YOU BETRAYED ME!!! I"M NOT YOUR FRIEND ANYMORE!!!" |

Eve Online Incarna Expansion in 2011.
According to Fanfest 2011, the Incarna expansion was suppose to usher in the era of walking in stations, avatars hanging out in public areas and corporate rooms while setting up markets in public areas and black markets. What did Incarna bring? A room no bigger than my garage that I can't walk out of.

Why is it when I read the OP I kept hearing the sound of a pastey Icelandic man being sucked off?
Anyways, the OP and the rest of the Legion crew are free to believe and do as they please, the rest of us are also free to be mad at CCP, not spend money with CCP, and generally **** with CCP and their supporters
Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.

personaly i belive respect is given until proven it shouldnt be. and well thats what im teaching my kids. if you dont show other people respect why should they respect you.
what ccp pulled was stupid. i dont think they thought it out first. they have admitted they did things wrong. admitting thier mistakes deserves respect. it is the right thing to do after all and they did finally get there.

it's a different game, brah. CCP said so themselves, over and over. Dust and Legion are different games. Legion will probably be a really amazing game, but everything that CCP said will be in Dust was a lie. You're not stupid enough to be as stupid as your OP. You're just a troll.
Yes, CCP will make a shooter that connects seamlessly with EvE. No, it won't be Dust even though they said for the past 2 years that it would be Dust. Yes, Dust will continue to be "supported". No, that doesn't mean content, it means bare minimum to meet their contract with Sony.

You're all just crying that these things won't come out on PS3. They're still committed to fulfilling all of their "promises" (like they owe us promises). For example, having a player market integrated with EVE is one reason WHY they chose to move to PC, so that they can actually do it. They wanted to do it all on PS3 and couldn't. Now they're moving to PC so that they can actually fulfill their promises regarding what the game was supposed to be and you all are calling them liers. Doesn't add up. They're giving you everything they committed to and more, but because it's not exactly the way you want it you're throwing the baby out with the bathwater. |

Quote:sammus420 wrote: I have some concerns.
What happened to the Vita App and the Player Maket? The Dust website clearly states Dust 514 will have both.
Quote: DUST 514 brings a vibrant economy to the world of console shooters, featuring a player-driven online market
In addition, DUST 514 will feature a PlayStation-«Vita companion app that directly interacts with the game world
How about 24v24 battles? Your FAQ states we'll have those as well.
Quote: DUST 514 can support 24v24 matches in a single battle in a single district on a single planet, and there can be multiple battles on a planet happening simultaneously, impacting each other in real time. The scale of DUST 514 is unprecedented.
Oh, and how about shooting down space ships?
Quote: DUST 514 players will be able to use weapons from the ground to deal damage to spacecraft above.
Oh, and here's one of my favorite quotes from a dev log:
Quote: The merging of EVE and DUST provides opportunities for socialization far beyond what most MMOs are able to offer simply by virtue of the fact that New Eden will soon be populated by players with vastly different roles, but similar agendas. And, we believe, the universe will be better for it. Because, for better or worse, every minute spent in the EVE setting should mean something.
What happened to that?

If it's such an obvious scam then lay it out for me.

Ok so apparently what all this boils down to is:
DUST will be developed indefinitely on PS3 = Promises fulfilled
DUST will move to PC = Betrayal
What I'm seeing is that every statement that is considered to be a lie is not thought to be so because they don't intend to carry it out but rather because they intend to do so on the PC platform....even though that's the only way they can actually do most of the things things they promised to do.
I guess that's where some of us will just have to agree to disagree. You see it as a betrayal and a scam. I see it as a practical necessity in order to develop the game properly. If this kind of change gets you this worked up, prepare for a lifetime of disappointment and feeling betrayed a lot. Sh*t happens and you move forward. Sometimes things don't go the way we intend them to, despite good intentions. They hit a wall with PS3 and decided to go around it instead of just sit down and make camp.
As for "scams", bad intentions, and taking advantage of the customer, if the fact that the future is on PC instead of PS3 is your grounds for such talk, sorry but it doesn't hold water. Play a better DUST on PC (with all your stuff intact) and be thankful for how much better it is, or go play another game. The End. |

Didn't a member of CCP talk sarcastically when someone asked about Dust being on a "dying" platform.
I do believe his response was "yeah,but there were 80 million sold". He even had this look of "are you and idiot?" to go along with his sarcastic tone.

Yes, and it will be awesome. They "promised" (overused, childish) that they would eventually put those into the game. They will. On PC. What's your point?
Dust 514 is going to be on PC? Awesome. I thought they were going yo make a different game called Legion. I'm glad you resolved that.
Because, that's why.

See this is how everyone knows you have no argument.
#1 Dust isn't getting moved, it is getting killed. As per CCP "Dust and LEgion are 100% seperate games"
#2 I think most were expecting DUST to move, i.e. keeping your corps/characters/isk/sp. No one thought it was going to stay on Ps3 forever.
Claiming anyone thought differently than #2 is a bald face lie, a way for you to even have an argument when you actually do not. It is called a strawman.

What promises did they break?
1. "Laser focused on PS3" - they were directly telling us that still WHILE THE MAJORITY OF THE TEAM WAS WORKING ON THE NEW PC PROJECT INSTEAD OF THE PS3 GAME.
2. New content coming for PS3. This was promised many times over, including specific statements that the PS3 would be seeing "lots" of new content after 1.8 with ONCE AGAIN the entire plan being to focus on Legion at the time and ignore PS3 apart from minor balance tweaks and bug fixes.
3. Sony's Playstation 4 presentation included the future development of DUST 514 on that platform as a work in progress. While it's possible that WAS still the plan at the time, AS SOON AS THAT CHANGED, not telling us was a lie of omission, and pushing for us to buy more content involved USING THE EXPECTATION OF THE UPCOMING PS4 VERSION to support those sales. That makes it false advertising as well as a broken promise.

They still say they don't have any plans on abandoning the console in the near future. And when Legion is released on PC you'll be able to transfer over your character with all his stuff intact.
Do you want to play DUST as it was meant to be played? Then when the time comes, buy a PC (doesn't have to be top of the line) and play it.
Not that important to you to play a better DUST? Sweet, go play another game on console.
Everyone is taking this so personally as if CCP are like fascists declaring the supremacy of the PC Master Race and putting patches on the arms of all console players so that they can be identified as untouchable. Puh-lease!!! It has nothing to do with that! They're making the change purely because of technical limitations of the PS3! If DUST stays on the PS3 it's development will eventually reach the limits of the platform and then DUST will slowly die. They had to make the change because of hardware, software, Sony getting in the way...these kinds of things. The fact that they were committed to PS3 before means that they were optimistic and trying to make it work on PS3. It also shows their lack of foresight in contingency planning for the possibility that PS3 wouldn't work long term. That's a lot different from a LIE.
And honestly, even if there was some douche among their decision makers that wasn't forthcoming when he should have been, I really don't care. I don't need devs to be moral saints. I need them to work hard to make DUST great. That's what they're trying to do, so I'm content.
And by the way, when Legion comes out on PC, I will have to buy a new rig and I will do so happily. |

Broken promises and badly handled PR aside, it's forced me and many of the great friends I've made through Dust, to make a very difficult decision.
Stick with a fun game & it's potential future incarnation, many having to purchase a PC just to run it? Or stick with amazing friends who have no way of achieving that?
Basically, I know VERY few who will, or who can follow onto PC, so with a heavy heart, despite the immense fun we've had here, & even getting me into recording/utube... many of us will stick with Dust till the doors close... but then it's friendships first & foremost after that.

GET THAT INTO YOUR HEAD IF YOU CAN.
WTF is wrong with you? A platform shift isn't something that casually happens all the time, numbnuts. It's not the same game, its a sequel.
What if Bungie had decided one day to announce that Halo was only going to be on the Playstation from now on? XBox owners would have been ripshit. Halo is half the reason to buy an XBox.
THE REASON PEOPLE ARE PISSED IS BECAUSE CCP SAID PS3 BUT RECENTLY CHANGED THEIR MINDS.
Just because you personally aren't affected doesn't mean that hundreds of other people weren't. People are mad because they spent hundreds of dollars to buy BPOs and Aurum in DUST, but that **** doesn't matter anymore. Maybe they will try to transfer that stuff, but who knows? It's a game that hasn't been made yet. They have no clue. Meanwhile everyone who has SP boosters left in DUST got butt ****** out of actual dollars, since this game is ending and a new one is starting.
Let's say were to buy $100 worth of aurum on your Legion account, and then CCP announces that OOPS Legion isn't coming out on PC anymore, it's coming out on iOS. And none of your stuff is good anymore. What then?

You know what? Have a fourth promise broken.
"10 year plan"
DUST 514 was promised to be a 10 year project which would be constantly evolving with new content. It WASN'T promised to be abandoned less than a year after being "released" in a state barely fit for beta, and it certainly wasn't promised to be abandoned for anotehr project that's essentially going to be doing the same things it was meant to be doing all along.
CONSTANTLY EVOLVING WITH NEW CONTEN was the biggest part of the promise they're breaking here. |

I know you only asked for one, but you got 3. Satisfied? #1 was how long ago? How do you know they weren't? Maybe it was their laser focus on the PS3 and trying hard to make it work--and it still not working--that showed them that a change had to be made. As for Legion having been in development for a while, even now they haven't committed to it. They started Project Legion to see if it would work better than PS3 and to be able to compare the two. They did, and after some time of working on both they've concluded that a PC platform is necessary for the game to fully develop. If they weren't entirely transparent about all this....maybe mistakes were made there. I'm over it.
#2 Did they say lots of new content for DUST 514 or did they specifically say PS3? Methinks they said DUST 514, and they are still committed to providing that content for DUST 514. I reject your distinction between DUST and Legion. They are the same game, except you have to have a PC for Legion.....and it will be way better.
#3 It's easier to port a game from PC to PS4 than it is to port from PS3. They never made any promises about PS4 and that's still not in their control. CCP Rouge said (as much as he legally could) that once it's ready on PC they'll look into porting to console.

They haven't released the specs yet and they themselves have no idea how resources intensive the game will be.. Doesn't have to be top of the line? lmfao you have been making assumption after assumption in this thread. People spit out facts while your fanboyism spins this web to support your own faulty arguments.
Sony is getting in the way? now your blaming another company for giving ccp a chance to tap into their playerbase of millions?! lmao. I am sure what you ment to say was "ps3". As for hardware of the ps3... I have played other ps3 games other than dust and I can say for a fact that dust has not even come close to reaching the ps3's full potential. Remember when loading contacts used to take 1minute - 2 minutes?? Then they optimized it after a year and now it took a few seconds? Remember when they said recently that they were just slapping code together for the pre-alpha and plan on optimizing later?? yea as a programmer.. you should begin with a plan. Already have the base of your code optimized. Or else you end up rewriting the code and wasting time, money, and resources. The fact is that the developers suck. Anyone with eyes and a good memory can see that. The best I can hope for is a typical game with mediocre graphics taking up incredible amount of resources.
Judging by the way you talk, there is no reasoning in the world that will make you see the light. You are deadset in believing in CCP and that is fine. Go ahead and do what you want to do.

Ok well....forums bring out the troll in all of us. If I mock it's just to emphasize my argument, which is not intended to hurt or belittle anyone. I'm just trying to raise my voice so it can be heard over all the shouting, because I think Legion is the best news any of us could have hoped for, because it means DUST will grow and become awesome and escape a slow death on the PS3. It's unfortunate for those that can't or won't play PC games, but the PC architecture is an absolute necessity moving forward.
I am thankful for the community and for everyone's commitment to the game. I hope as many as possible will continue to play DUST on PC. It's not the only thing you can do with a PC! There are lots of other games and other uses for a PC! Hopefully those that don't have one will be able to invest in one that's able to at least handle Legion on low settings (probably still better than current graphics) and join us as we finally really enter into the world of New Eden and start to enjoy a true MMOFPS. |

zzZaXxx wrote:#1 was how long ago? How do you know they weren't? Maybe it was their laser focus on the PS3 and trying hard to make it work--and it still not working--that showed them that a change had to be made. As for Legion having been in development for a while, even now they haven't committed to it. They started Project Legion to see if it would work better than PS3 and to be able to compare the two. They did, and after some time of working on both they've concluded that a PC platform is necessary for the game to fully develop. If they weren't entirely transparent about all this....maybe mistakes were made there. I'm over it. IWS has implied that at the time that statement was made, people knew the majority of the team was working on Legion for PC, NOT supporting the PS3 version of the game. It was ALREADY HAPPENING and it ALREADY HAD MORE OF THE DEV TEAM THAN DUST by the time they said "laser focused on PS3" according to the information we've been given. And even if they HAD still been working primarily on the PS3 at that point, the fact that they had stated that then almost immediately turned around and started working on the PC version almost to the exclusion of the PS3 and DIDN'T IMMEDIATELY TELL US THEY WERE NO LONGER FOCUSED meant that every day between that change of focus and their announcement of it was a broken promise.
Quote:#2 Did they say lots of new content for DUST 514 or did they specifically say PS3? Methinks they said DUST 514, and they are still committed to providing that content for DUST 514. I reject your distinction between DUST and Legion. They are the same game, except you have to have a PC for Legion.....and it will be way better. They promised a lot of content specifically for the PS3, some of which it's reasonable to say was an overestimation of the platform at the time. They've scaled back their promises for PS3, and the specific points we most want to see before Legion drops are things which it's reasonable to expect on the platform. More importantly, they promised CONSTANT evolution and CONSTANT new content, not "we're stopping new content for a couple of years to release a new game that's replacing DUST instead of releasing a new build of DUST that's been designed from the ground up as if it's a new game.
Saying they're creating a major new build, it's called "Legion", and it's coming to PC, then promising to maintain support for the current PS3 version of the game and to continue providing new content, BUT AT A SLOWER RATE BECAUSE MORE FOCUS IS ON PC would have been fine. I'd have been looking forward to Legion in that case. If they change their plans to do this, which is what they should have been doing in the first place, I'll be looking forward to Legion. As it stands, they're saying "no new content, only minor fixes, many of which should have happened months ago but we didn't because everyone was busy with Legion and we didn't feel like telling you because it seemed like a better idea to wait until Fanfest before shafting everyone who bought into the promises we made before then" and Legion will be taking over where DUST left off instead of continuing DUST when Uprising leaves off.
Quote:#3 It's easier to port a game from PC to PS4 than it is to port from PS3. They never made any promises about PS4 and that's still not in their control. CCP Rouge said (as much as he legally could) that once it's ready on PC they'll look into porting to console. PS4 was explicitly advertised as having DUST coming to it at E3. As soon as it was confirmed that the PC version was coming and PS4 was NOT a primary focus, we should have been told. Again, every day the delayed that announcement WHILE PUSHING US TO BUY CONTENT UNDER THAT EXPECTATION was a broken promise. |

Now they're moving to PC so that they can actually fulfill their promise... Thats exactly the ******* point, Despite numerous warnings and Naysayers from EVE players and Early beta players, Despite the fact that it was a Known fact Next Gen consoles were to be coming out soon, CCP's Bullshit staff assured us they would be able to accomplish all this and more on PS3 and stated they Had no plans of abandoning the console in any near future! We took their word for it and supported the game on PS3 for 2 years, Money, Time, Feedback. All a lot of effort was put into the community to help see this game progress and become better...ON PS3!! Then shortly after we finally get all the racial suits we waited 2 years for and the first Decent update in a year, we find out that these Scumbag developers have been willy nilly coding the Game we were supposed to have for A different ******* platform with no sign of consolation for the Console players that supported them. Do you Really think CCP Just coded that Legion prototype in just a few short months? NO! Hell no, these guys couldn't even code a simple LOGOUT BUTTON without taking 6 months! They've been working on Legion for PC for probably half a year or even more, all the while we console guinea pigs have been Beta Testing and unknowingly money feeding the Legion beta known to us as Dust! Do you not see why I'm angry!?!? To defend their BS is shameful for anyone who took part in the Dust journey.

Outlandish and paranoid? For the past few months they have been creating large SP events. Then the devs have went on the forums and started making posts about "Hey, at the end of this million clone event if you buy a booster, you'll get an extra million sp! More if its an omega!". Then there were the posts that further encouraged you to spend money saying "Take advantage of these SP events with boosters!".
They withheld the information that they were developing Legion instead of Dust (and considering we haven't received a single update in that time, i find it to be true), and at the same time encouraged you to spend money on their SP events.
You are saying that wasn't planned, it was just a fuckin accident? The marketing team had no idea any of this was happening so that's why the DEV's were encouraging you to purchase boosters? And coincidentally they created the most events we've ever had in the shortest amount of time since the game was closed beta?
As for the last part, no they did not say we get to keep EVERYTHING on our characters. They said providing us with our "investment" is a no brainer, we would like to give an equal investment. Not they WILL, they would LIKE to. Then proceeded to say they have no fuckin idea currently what they will and will be able to do, or what they'll be willing to do because "We have to be careful about what we can transfer so as not to upset the NPE". There isn't a single post from anyone that says "This is exactly what you are going to get transferred over". |

"10 year plan"
DUST 514 was promised to be a 10 year project which would be constantly evolving with new content. It WASN'T promised to be abandoned less than a year after being "released" in a state barely fit for beta, and it certainly wasn't promised to be abandoned for anotehr project that's essentially going to be doing the same things it was meant to be doing all along.
CONSTANTLY EVOLVING WITH NEW CONTEN was the biggest part of the promise they're breaking here. THIS!! Again...same game, different platform. DUST has been constantly evolving over the past year and will continue to evolve. It will move to PC so that it can continue to do so at an accelerated pace and without previous stifling limitations.
Stop beating around the bush and throwing all these accusations around and just admit that you're just pissed because now you have buy a PC to play DUST. NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.
Y'all are sooooo focused on the negative and on any way that you've been slighted in the least. You choose to be blind to any positives that would quell some of your rage. If you want to wallow in your misery, go right ahead, nobody can stop you. Those of us that are willing to move forward will be part of something awesome.

[/thread] Due to the fact that I have eyes and watched the Legion gameplay video, the fact that they committed to transfer players, with all their stuff, from PS3 to PC, the fact that everything they showed at Fanfest about Legion was an iteration or transformation of an aspect of DUST, and the fact that the PC version will also be based in New Eden and will be much more integrated into the online world....I think I can safely assume they're the same game.

I challenge you to produce conclusive evidence that CCP made ANY promise to the community that they did not keep. Let's start with the most obvious:
1. True or False: CCP promised that DUST 514 would continue to be developed on the PS3 indefinitely and would never transfer to another platform.
False. All their actions show that they intended to develop it into the future on PS3. Back when they decided to develop DUST on PS3 they undoubtedly saw an opportunity and thought they were making the best choice available to them. Then after Uprising revealed the glaring flaws in the game and how far their official release of the game was from their/our vision inspired by EVE, they started iterating almost monthly in an effort to to get the game to where it needed to be. No game in history has been iterated on so frequently and gone through as many changes and transformations as DUST has in one year.
So CCP made an unprecedented effort to improve DUST and, it would seem, finally came to a breaking point where they had to make a decision: a) accept the limitations of the PS3 and just make the best game possible within those limitations or b) remake the game on PC without those limitations so that it could finally become the game that they originally intended. They chose PC.
Now, first of all, anyone who appreciates how special and amazing EVE is knows CCP would be fools to settle for less than making the EVE of shooters. They couldn't settle, so they chose to move to PC. I wouldn't want them to settle, and anyone who would just doesn't get it. If you don't get it, learn about EVE and you'll start to see how important it is that DUST move to PC so that it can become a true MMOFPS integrated with EVE....or just move on to another game on console.
Secondly, they made this decision based on real technical game development problems which they have professional knowledge of and you forum trolls have next to no understanding of. Devs say, "Well we really need to move to PC so that we can finally start to do x, y, and z with the game and finally move beyond limitations a, b, and c." Forum trolls, not understanding the techno talk and just being plain mad, say "NO! You lied! You BETRAYED us! The 514 stands for May 2014! You planned this all along, using us as guinea pigs so that you could troubleshoot for the real game you intended all the time! I'm biomassing my clone and protesting naked!"
To think that they planned this all along or were trying to milk people of money with recent events before they revealed the truth is outlandish and paranoid.

Show some class and self-respect. A PS3 FPS forum is the only place on earth that you won't be b*tchslapped for talking all your crazy sh*t and throwing such rash accusations around, and just generally being obnoxious in response to these changes. Be grateful that CCP is doing what they HAVE TO DO in order to push DUST 514 past the realm of mediocrity that it has been mired in and attempting, at their own expense, to make it a truly great and unique game that will live up to the standard set by EVE. If you don't care about DUST meeting and exceeding that standard....bye.
TL;DR: Your'e wrong.

Pretty sure CCP made it clear they are 2 different games and that only a small portion of Dust would be integrated over to Legion. Not sure why you are attempting to protect CCP but facts are facts. No amount of **** swallowing can change them or a twist on words.

Quote:Stop beating around the bush and throwing all these accusations around and just admit that you're just pissed because now you have buy a PC to play DUST. NOT THE END OF THE WORLD. No, now we have to buy a PC to play the game that DUST should have been eventually turning into, without DUST being able to ever become what it was intended to be.
Quote:Y'all are sooooo focused on the negative and on any way that you've been slighted in the least. You choose to be blind to any positives that would quell some of your rage. If you want to wallow in your misery, go right ahead, nobody can stop you. Those of us that are willing to move forward will be part of something awesome. I've openly said that I WANT to see what Legion SHOULD have been, which is for Legion to be the next new build for DUST.
Sure, make it on PC. Sure, rebuild from the ground up. But DON'T scrap support for the DUST while you go building a new game in its image. And DON'T stop developing the extra content that's NOT in DUST yet and SHOULD BE while working on taking that next big step.
Continue on with building DUST, and make Legion the next major build, which is what we'd all been expecting. And in the meantime, have some new content that comes into the current build of DUST on PS3. Use the PS3 version for testing some of the new things that are coming. |

Hmm lets see....
Legion will have pub matches, faction warfare, and PC. It will have all the same classes and weapons. It will have a skill tree and a fitting window. It will the have the same kind of maps and game modes. It will have corporations. It will have ISK. It will take place in the EVE universe. Assets will be lost upon death.
What else is there? Nothing. I just listed every bit of content there is in DUST 514. And they all happen to be in both games. But one of them is on PC. Is that the difference you're referring to? |

The weapons are being reworked. They're similar to what we have in DUST, but not the same. And they will exist in-universe side-by-side with DUST's versions of the same weapons, some of which have been renamed on the way into Legion, and at least one of which SHOULD have been renamed in DUST already but wasn't.
The skill tree and progression system is being entirely rebuilt, it's not going to have the same skills and they aren't promising how much of our existing character's skillset will transfer into the new game, which should have been the ABSOLUTE FIRST THING ON THE AGENDA WHEN CONSIDERING THE REBUILDING PROCESS.
The game modes and maps will be different from those in DUST because of the nature of the game. They're copying the maps over from DUST, but giving players access to different and larger portions of those maps to play across in realtime, rather than limiting us to small arenas. The core gameplay will be focused around emergent behaviours across huge battlefields, not fixed team sizes in a "lobby shooter" type environment with limited accessible map areas.
And most importantly, it's been specifically announced by the devs as a new, separate project with a different name, and NOT as a part of the existing game or a rebuild of it as we had been promised. |

Do you know it spreads onto your toast the same way real DUST does? Are you sure it doesn't leave that filmy gunk in your mouth after a few bites?
NO. Because IT'S NOT READY YET.
We've seen a really, REALLY basic tech demo for something that's been EXPLICITLY STATED TO NOT BE DUST, but the tech demo looks the part because they've straight-up ported in-game assets from DUST on PS3 into a PC version OF THE SAME GAME ENGINE WE'RE ALREADY RUNNING ON. They've implied that the new game is meant to be built in UE4, but have also stated the demo was running in CCP's modified version of UE3, just like DUST.
So about those broken promises again...? |

Personally I enjoy DUST as it is and would be happy with just a few finishing touches like adding the rest of the heavy weapons and tanks. I would be fine playing DUST basically as-is until the PC version comes out and getting lots of big changes all at once. There are others of course that want more iteration than that. I think they have to make some business decisions and they have the info there and we don't. Also they bear the risk, so if the only feasible business decision is for them to hyper-focus on Legion so that it's ready by a reasonable release date, then that's what they need to do. If they're going to make DUST 2 they need to pull out all the stops and give it the best chance of success right at the start (a lesson from Uprising 1.0).
I agree they have to strike a balance between continuing to develop DUST on PS3 and taking it to the next level on PC. If there could be more constructive consultation about this and other issues between players and devs (which they clearly want) then we could figure out the best way to move forward. We could find that balance, filling in some important blanks in DUST and leaving the rest to be released on PC. All this rage, venom, and melodrama just detracts from that and hurts everyone. I'm sure there are some players out there--who for some reason reject the PC platform emphatically--that do just want to obstruct and hinder the process. Those of us who are still trying to assess the situation and haven't crossed over to the Dark Side of hate and rabble-rousing have the chance to be part of the conversation and to help DUST not only live but thrive for years to come.
If you're on the fence, I implore you to try to contribute to a constructive conversation and to steer clear of all the drama.
Also, CCP should hold a lottery and give winners gift certificates to Newegg.com or something. A gesture like that to encourage the community to transition to PC would send the right message. And we definitely need the Amarr and Minmatar heavy weapons on PS3 ASAP. Their tanks would be nice too. |

The difference here is clearly you don't mind gaming on either system. So it makes sense that to you all that really exists is the content. You see the content you want being developed for the PC, so you're happy to see it.
But for solo-system gamers, that's not all there is. End result, they were sold on a promise/expectation of a game--a game exclusive to the PS--which is the MMOFPS sandbox in New Eden, in all that glory they sold it in. And now it's not coming. For solo-system people, this is not a casual difference.

What about them? You just stated a bunch of technical stuff. No it's not ready for release. Yes, that was pre-alpha footage in the reveal video. No, it's not guaranteed to be amazing and worth it. What do you want? A guarantee? No one can give you that. All anyone can do is try their best to make a good product. I trust that realizing the long-term vision of an MMOFPS in the EVE universe is very important to CCP. I've seen tons of evidence to support that view. They could have just bailed like the MAG devs. Instead they've recommitted themselves to making it happen, despite the difficulties of changing platforms, the pain of admitting mistakes, and the sting of the community's reaction. That takes balls.
But can they pull it off? I think so. I hope so. I'm going to try to help them--and us--get the win instead of saying "Screw this, I'm rubber-banding". This is a community. If you're not trying to build something awesome with us, then please don't try to tear it down, and be wary of those that are. That being said, frustration is understandable...but is having to get a PC really so bad that it merits all this tossing of *****? Can't we all just shoot each other in peace? |

The plan as we've been told it right now is that we're getting: -Bug fixes (many of which are already long overdue) -Balance tweaks (many of which are ALSO long overdue) -Planetary Conquest improvements (which are EXtREMELY long overdue)
That's all. No new content. No more races are getting their heavy weapons. No racial parity on vehicles. Nothing.
NOT. ONE. NEW. THING.
There is content that DUST is absolutely in need of to be a complete game. It's still very much a beta with limited content. It's certainly FUN, but it's not FINISHED, and it's FAR from release ready. In addition to your requests, I want, and think it's reasonable to ask for, a player marketplace (if in a limited form) and at least some basic form of PvE gameplay. Even if they use DUST on PS3 as the testing ground for PvE in Legion, that would be fine. As I've said before, we're used to being experimented on and rebuilt. Keep doing so.

And to be fair on those who are anti-PC, many have their own reasons, some more valid from an outside perspective than others. Someone with absolutely NO intention of moving to PC still deserves some measure of respect from CCP, particularly in light of the fact that E3 included an announcement of the upcoming PS4 version of DUST, so if that isn't on the cards any more (and it's been stated that it isn't), anyone who paid money to CCP based on that expectation has a valid reason to be upset, and should reasonably expect at least some kind of apology for being misled.

I think there needs to be something more than just a "lottery" with a few lucky people winning prizes. There needs to be a definitive plan for how to move forward, and that plan needs to include plans to support and thank AND APOLOGISE TO the fanbase that CCP have built up not just over the past almost-year since release, but the years many of us spent in beta as well. |

But at least the game will be there for you, and have more to offer you, should you have the chance to play it on PC. |

zzZaXxx wrote:Dear enraged neckbeards,
I challenge you to produce conclusive evidence that CCP made ANY promise to the community that they did not keep. Let's start with the most obvious:
1. True or False: CCP promised that DUST 514 would continue to be developed on the PS3 indefinitely and would never transfer to another platform.
False. All their actions show that they intended to develop it into the future on PS3. Back when they decided to develop DUST on PS3 they undoubtedly saw an opportunity and thought they were making the best choice available to them. Then after Uprising revealed the glaring flaws in the game and how far their official release of the game was from their/our vision inspired by EVE, they started iterating almost monthly in an effort to to get the game to where it needed to be. No game in history has been iterated on so frequently and gone through as many changes and transformations as DUST has in one year.
So CCP made an unprecedented effort to improve DUST and, it would seem, finally came to a breaking point where they had to make a decision: a) accept the limitations of the PS3 and just make the best game possible within those limitations or b) remake the game on PC without those limitations so that it could finally become the game that they originally intended. They chose PC.
Now, first of all, anyone who appreciates how special and amazing EVE is knows CCP would be fools to settle for less than making the EVE of shooters. They couldn't settle, so they chose to move to PC. I wouldn't want them to settle, and anyone who would just doesn't get it. If you don't get it, learn about EVE and you'll start to see how important it is that DUST move to PC so that it can become a true MMOFPS integrated with EVE....or just move on to another game on console.
Secondly, they made this decision based on real technical game development problems which they have professional knowledge of and you forum trolls have next to no understanding of. Devs say, "Well we really need to move to PC so that we can finally start to do x, y, and z with the game and finally move beyond limitations a, b, and c." Forum trolls, not understanding the techno talk and just being plain mad, say "NO! You lied! You BETRAYED us! The 514 stands for May 2014! You planned this all along, using us as guinea pigs so that you could troubleshoot for the real game you intended all the time! I'm biomassing my clone and protesting naked!"
To think that they planned this all along or were trying to milk people of money with recent events before they revealed the truth is outlandish and paranoid. Flaming trolls along these lines are just embarassing, and most of the arguments and vitriol being spewed out on these forums by the raging disappointed are ridiculous and just make the community look like a bunch of immature, self-centered neckbeards with underdeveloped social skills. Produce a shred of evidence. They have clearly said, in effect, "Yes, unless the zombie apocalypse or some crazy lawsuit from Sony keeps us from being able to do it, we will absolutely ensure that you to keep all of your SP and inventory in the PC version."
Show some class and self-respect. A PS3 FPS forum is the only place on earth that you won't be b*tchslapped for talking all your crazy sh*t and throwing such rash accusations around, and just generally being obnoxious in response to these changes. Be grateful that CCP is doing what they HAVE TO DO in order to push DUST 514 past the realm of mediocrity that it has been mired in and attempting, at their own expense, to make it a truly great and unique game that will live up to the standard set by EVE. If you don't care about DUST meeting and exceeding that standard....bye.
TL;DR: Your'e wrong. the moon

Let be honest. It's CCP that wasn't upto the task. The PC is easier for them, the PS3 was too much of a challenge for them to develop on. It's not that the hardware couldn't handle it. Let's get real, who needs a 5x5Km map when you can never use more than 1x1km? It was tons of vision, with horrendous implementation. Sure the PS3 has it's limits, but don't blame it for CCP's failures. |

Thanks for sympathizing, but you miss the point. It's not your fault, you seem reasonable, you just want a GOOD version of Dust so bad that you refuse to see that what's going on now will happen again, to you. IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT THE PLATFORM SHIFT.
I think going to PC is the best part of this whole decision, but console-only players have every right to be a part of this that you do. And even if it's completely impossible to go to ps4(I can't imagine them even bothering to try after all this), I might accept that too. But they still deserved more warning than they did. I feel worse for them than I do for myself.
Sure we were stupid to believe CCP's lies, but they didn't have to completely fulfill them to win most of these people over, they just had to make an effort to end this game well, and with proper respect to their players. Apparently we're not worth that.
I would be all fanboy-ing it up in here defending CCP except for one thing, how they kept this information from us while they milked all of us for extra money. That is unacceptable. After that, nothing their paid professional liars say about legion or your character investment means anything. |

What I'm seeing is that every statement that is considered to be a lie is not thought to be so because they don't intend to carry it out but rather because they intend to do so on the PC platform....even though that's the only way they can actually do most of the things things they promised to do.
I guess that's where some of us will just have to agree to disagree. You see it as a betrayal and a scam. I see it as a practical necessity in order to develop the game properly. If this kind of change gets you this worked up, prepare for a lifetime of disappointment and feeling betrayed a lot. Sh*t happens and you move forward. Sometimes things don't go the way we intend them to, despite good intentions. They hit a wall with PS3 and decided to go around it instead of just sit down and make camp.
As for "scams", bad intentions, and taking advantage of the customer, if the fact that the future is on PC instead of PS3 is your grounds for such talk, sorry but it doesn't hold water. Play a better DUST on PC (with all your stuff intact) and be thankful for how much better it is, or go play another game. The End.
you say things that make you look dumb.
we don't care where the game is developed. we care that the game in development is NOT dust.

Every time they refuted that they had ABSOLUTELY NO PLANS to move Dust anytime soon. Further more they boasted of there 10 year plan.
Now all of a sudden they are doing a complete 180 on there stance.

^This.
Their vision exceeds their capabilities.
I don't doubt that they were sincere when they made all of their grand promises for dust on PS3, and I fully believe that, at that time, their intention WAS to bring their vision of Dust to the PS3. Unfortunately, as was quite evident through the entire course of it's development, when push came to shove, they discovered that turning that vision into a reality was much more difficult than they initially anticipated.
CCP has some truly fantastic and innovative ideas but, when it comes to bringing those ideas to fruition, their reach simply exceeds their grasp. |

Vehicle/AV balance, weapon balance, poor NPE, short-sighted flaws in the fundamenal mechanics of PC, just to name a few examples, have nothing to do with the technical limitations of the PS3 and yet CCP has failed time and time again to sufficiently address and provide effective solutions to these and many other issues fundamental to a successful FPS.

CCP's been making this game since 2003. It's their baby, and they REALLY want to realize their vision for it to make it the most complete, dynamic, and immersive online universe--which is pretty much the coolest thing anyone could be trying to do. They already made the universe and it's chock full of emergent content on the spaceship level. They did a great job on that part, but they want to complete the player experience of the EVE universe by enabling players to be immersed in emergent content not just as spaceship pilots, but also as fighter pilots and mercenaries on the ground. They created a strong foundation for the FPS element of this "ecosystem", but found that, in order for the whole universe to come together and start meshing into one cohesive whole, the whole thing needs to be built on PC architecture. They didn't make their reasons or intentions clear at first and left a lot of questions unanswered. Since then they've started to clarify why they're doing this, why they believe the PS3 platform can't support the game they're making, and how they intend to move forward. The following statement explains their reasoning. It doesn't change the fact that PS3 will eventually be left behind, but it shows that they know what they want, that they're passionate about making a great game, and they know how they want to get there. Their mission is to complete the EVE universe and to make it one of the wonders of the world, which it will be when Valkyrie and Legion are integrated into the whole. They have a vision that has been taking shape for years and they will do whatever it takes to realize it. That's really rare in my opinion and I thankful for their persistence.
CCP Rouge wrote:Hi everyone. Me again.
Why PC first? For a few different reasons... It's a scalable platform. We can go high spec for the most demanding players in terms of Gfx, but we can also scale down to low/mid spec to get critical mass. It's also a good platform for the early stage of a project like ours. You can test and balance the game and the economy quite easily with fast turn-arounds. We can set people up in testing environments easily (eg. ISD in EVE). If you've seen the "CCP Presents" presentation on Saturday at Fanfest, there was a talk about CCP refocusing on its core tech competency, which is PC. It allows in the future the creation of a "universe" of products on the same platform. Again, this doesn't mean that we're not going back to console at one point but we need to focus on one thing at a time and deliver an awesome game, then things get easier.
Now I'd like to address (or repeat) something important for me. I know that a lot of you have been really disappointed and wanted to see much more on the future of DUST 514 in its current form and I absolutely understand that feeling. But the reality is that, while it's a great shooter, I repeat that it's not the base that can give us another EVE Online with 10+ years of epic battles where players can have a great experience whether solo, as the head of the deadliest squad or largest corp in the game. Give people the right tools to manage/achieve all that. A much clearer user experience that opens up that huge universe, always discover new stuff to shoot, to loot, to sell... A social experience where corps can advertise/recruit easily, where you see the main chat going crazy with people asking for groups, selling stuff, talking ****. Some of the stuff that makes me feel like I am in an MMO. All of these aren't tweaks, they are features forming a new eco-system for the game, a foundation you can then build on. No doubt that DUST 514 is a large piece of that foundation. We've accomplished so much and I've had a ton of fun every day since beta but it is not there yet. It requires a lot of work of course but also a different approach in how we design and execute on that vision. I can go on and on about how I see this evolve but we'll cover in more depth as we start sharing ideas and designs through dev blogs and such. |

your looking at limitations as just being down to gfx and processing power but its more than that (yes i only stated those 2 things in my post but that was relevant to that point). there are other limitations like having to go to sony to change things. just look how long it takes to get fixes after a patch. in eve you have a fix within a few hours. in dust it takes weeks or even months. there is also the limitations of what they can programme. for ccp they come up with all sorts of weird and wonderful programmes to fix their problems in eve as and when they arrive. they cannot do that as easy with PS3.
as for their shortcomings. ccp had them in eve's birth and look at what they have now. one of the most successful games of all time. they may stumble and make mistakes in dusts but the end result will be the same.

Personally, my problem with the announcement of Project Legion is that it crushed my hope of getting PvE, player market, bigger matches, etc. any time soon. Let me explain it:
CCP said they wanted to add those and other things to Dust 514 on PS3. They never said they wouldn't do it, and they never said they would move Dust to a new platform, so I and many others assumed that they would do it and that they were working on it.
That's what kept me playing Dust 514. Sure saving SP is awesome, but the game itself was sh!t. The reason I kept playing is because CCP had at one point talked about the aforementioned things like PvE and a player market being put in Dust. I assumed that they were working on it for Dust and that it would be coming to the PS3 in some form.
For months and months, I and many others I know grit our teeth and played Dust, always checking this forum for any new information, waiting on pins and needles for the announcement to be made. After all, they never said it wasn't going to happen on the PS3.
Then FanFest happened. The day before the Project Legion reveal, I couldn't help but be excited and hopeful that something I wanted would be announced...PvE, jets, player market, improved NPE, etc., even though I tried to keep my expectations low because well f*** it's CCP. As I excitedly read the dev blog about Project Legion, I was slowly crushed by every sentence.
I thought "D***...nothing we wanted is happening anytime soon." I always thought it was just around the corner. It was like a carrot on a string that kept me moving. I learned that those things weren't days, weeks, or even months away. They're years away. On a game that hasn't been officially green lit. On a platform that's more expensive than a console and also a platform I have basically no experience with. So I was wrong. I thought CCP would add those things they said they wanted in the game soon, but they won't. It's going to be a long time before that happens.
That said, I understand completely why they chose the PC and I also agree from a business perspective that it was the best decision in the long run.
My problem is this: CCP's unfulfilled promises. They haven't broken any promises, because they never said when or how things would get done. It's always SOON. I think we as a playerbase need to reject SOON. We need to demand more from CCP. We need to demand SOLID timeframes from them. We need to scare them like we did with our reaction to Project Legion. Whenever CCP announces something new they want to add to EVE or Valkyrie or Dust/Legion, we need to riot untill they give us a date on when it'll be implemented. If they won't, we need to start demanding refunds. No more of this SOON crap. CCP needs to understand that they can't just placate us with flashy videos and talking about 'what could be'.
They need to DO WHAT THEY SAY THEY'RE GOING TO DO IN A TIMELY MANNER.
I'm done.
I've decided to support Project Legion. Don't let that go to your head CCP, the reveal was a train wreck.

1. First-person perspective. This is available in game for players in most roles. 2. You can shoot things. Simple enough, really.
So that's two promises. They also promised to let us call in orbital strikes from EVE Online. They kept that promise. They promised massive customisation of dropsuits and vehicles, and delivered.
As much as there have been many big promises they're breaking now, there are plenty of things they DID deliver on.
Many things they've failed to deliver have unfortunately been things that they SHOULD have been able to provide. Simple honesty is something CCP have usually been pretty good with up until now. It's disappointing to see such a big and important announcement mishandled this spectacularly. |

limitations in any way or form are limitations. ccp has no limitations on pc. just look at the continued evolution of eve over the years. yes its always been pc but how many times has it evolved to require more GFX and processing power. PS4 and certainly PS3 are limited in that regard.
eve is now getting 10 releases a year. how many releases do you honestly think we will receive on ps3 especially as the game gets more and more complicated and larger. Vehicle/AV balance, weapon balance, poor NPE, short-sighted flaws in the fundamenal mechanics of PC, just to name a few examples, have nothing to do with the technical limitations of the PS3 and yet CCP has failed time and time again to sufficiently address and provide effective solutions to these and many other issues fundamental to a successful FPS. This is purely a result of their inexperience and shortcomings as a FPS developer, and nothing else. your looking at limitations as just being down to gfx and processing power but its more than that (yes i only stated those 2 things in my post but that was relevant to that point). there are other limitations like having to go to sony to change things. just look how long it takes to get fixes after a patch. in eve you have a fix within a few hours. in dust it takes weeks or even months. there is also the limitations of what they can programme. for ccp they come up with all sorts of weird and wonderful programmes to fix their problems in eve as and when they arrive. they cannot do that as easy with PS3. as for their shortcomings. ccp had them in eve's birth and look at what they have now. one of the most successful games of all time. they may stumble and make mistakes in dusts but the end result will be the same.
These are just excuses. Plenty of other developers have done just fine within the confines of Sony's QA (which is ultimately in place for OUR benefit, as gamers, to ensure a funamental level of quality), and there have been countless AAA titles produced over the years using the PS3's architecture.
I'm not really even talking from a programming aspect though, it's not about the logistics of programming for the PS3, but more about what should have been basic common sense gameplay decisions: easily exploitable PC mechanics that should have been obvious, the decision to use the woefully inadequate Battle Academy as a solution for the poor NPE, the constant nerf/buff/nerf cycle of weapon balancing, to name a few.
These things have nothing to do with the limitations of Sony or the PS3, and everything to do with the basic understanding of what constitutes a fundamentally sound, enjoyable FPS.
If they couldn't handle the basics, then their grand, complex "vision" was doomed to fail from the outset.
Sure, Eve is successful, but Eve is not a FPS either, and requires a completely different approach, philosophy, and skillset to develop. Just because they made a successful space-sim, doesn't automatically mean they are capable or posses the necessary skill and understanding to create an equally successful FPS game, which is a completely different genre altogether. |

I think going to PC is the best part of this whole decision, but console-only players have every right to be a part of this that you do. And even if it's completely impossible to go to ps4(I can't imagine them even bothering to try after all this), I might accept that too. But they still deserved more warning than they did. I feel worse for them than I do for myself.
Sure we were stupid to believe CCP's lies, but they didn't have to completely fulfill them to win most of these people over, they just had to make an effort to end this game well, and with proper respect to their players. Apparently we're not worth that.
I would be all fanboy-ing it up in here defending CCP except for that and the other thing, how they kept this information from us while they milked all of us for extra money. That is unacceptable. After that, nothing their paid professional liars say about legion or your character investment means anything. So much this^^ |

Bingo this guy gets it new platform don't mean bleep. If they can't the basic right on console, same issue will occur on PC. I think CCP is great at point and click shooters not so much.

DUST will be developed indefinitely on PS3 = Promises fulfilled
DUST will move to PC = Betrayal
What I'm seeing is that every statement that is considered to be a lie is not thought to be so because they don't intend to carry it out but rather because they intend to do so on the PC platform....even though that's the only way they can actually do most of the things things they promised to do.
I guess that's where some of us will just have to agree to disagree. You see it as a betrayal and a scam. I see it as a practical necessity in order to develop the game properly. If this kind of change gets you this worked up, prepare for a lifetime of disappointment and feeling betrayed a lot. Sh*t happens and you move forward. Sometimes things don't go the way we intend them to, despite good intentions. They hit a wall with PS3 and decided to go around it instead of just sit down and make camp.
As for "scams", bad intentions, and taking advantage of the customer, if the fact that the future is on PC instead of PS3 is your grounds for such talk, sorry but it doesn't hold water. Play a better DUST on PC (with all your stuff intact) and be thankful for how much better it is, or go play another game. The End. First of all, you don't know all your stuff will be intact, they've said things like they would like to, and they'll transfer things that are "applicable". Also, you just assume/believe CCP when they say they can't make good on their promises because of PS3 limitations. Again you just flat out believe CCP.
I know there is no arguing, go ahead and give CCP more of your money and time, but don't expect me to do the same and don't expect for me not to be pissed off at CCP for taking our money and having booster events and sales when they damn well knew they were ditching consoles to go back to PC. You are CCP cultist who will believe them when they tell you its raining even though they are really pissing on your back.

You are a moron if you think the PC has no limitations. You have to make a PC game that is playable and entertaining for the specs the majority of PC players have or your are shooting yourself in the foot as a company. "PC has no limitations" LOL are you a kid or on some sort of drugs?

you say ccp are basicly crap at making a FPS and that maybe so, but CCP are not trying to make an FPS. they are making a sandbox MMOFPS tied in with an MMO sandbox of a completely different play style which is ultimately more complicated to do. simple tweaks here and there for what you call basic requirements for a fps are not simple tweaks at all.
for other fps games that are complete before release taking years to make then getting an expansion 6months to a year later then replaced by a new game then yes console works great but as i said this is no FPS replaced every year by a new game. its an ever evolving game with unlimited potential which requires flexibility to succeed.
the sandbox doesn't just mould our environment in game. its evolves CCP's thinking by watching our actions. fixing and evolving on the fly like ccp has done many times in eve has made that game work where other games have died out or have grown stagnant and require replacing year in, year out.
we are not talking the likes of COD requiring replacing every year to maintain its player base and requiring a restart for every player once the new one arrives. thats the FPS everyone has come accustomed to. ccp could easily make dust like that but we would no longer have any options for linking it to the eve universe and dust would become the same old shooter as every other one out there just a different flavour.

CCP stated - not just once or twice - that they were focused on PS3, and that DUST was continuing as planned, while the majority of their efforts were NOT directed at DUST, and NOT directed at PS3, but were instead going to Legion on PC. Any of their sales made after the decision was made to stop producing new content for DUST and before they advised us about that decision are at risk of being subject to legal action for false (or at best, misleading) advertising. That's why people have been receiving refunds for many recent Aurum purchases. |

zzZaXxx, you and ADAM-OF-EVE can continue to apologize for CCP and continue to give them your money. I and many others on this forum are done with this joke of a developer. We aren't buying PCs for a game that so far has only shown 6 people on a prettier Dust map. You should, however, give up on trying to tell us how we should feel about CCP, you aren't going to change anyone's opinion, you'll just make yourself look lik ea bigger jackass than you already have.
And not that it makes a difference to you, because you've decided you are with CCP no matter what, but would you care to explain to me why CCP couldn't develop the WoD sandbox with the unlimited power of PCs? You know, the game they didn't have to conceive of lore, a leveling system, powers, or class structure for. Their was 20 years of work on that by White Wolf, all CCP had to do was build the damn game. Why aren't Eve pilots walking in stations with the unlimited power of PCs at CCPs fingertips?
The way I look at it, when it comes to game development, CCP is 1 for 4.

And I assume you're also saying that instead of being called "EVE: Legion" as they've told us it will be, and instead of being "an entirely new game" as they've told us it is, it will be "DUST 514: Legion" and will be an expansion to the existing game we're currently playing on PS3.
If any of that is true, I suggest you provide a reliable source to back up your claims, since we've already seen plenty of evidence from official sources stating the exact opposite. |

"PC has no limitations" LOL are you a kid or on some sort of drugs? your missing the point.. ccp are not just making a game they are making ART and will take that art wherever it requires. if that means spec'ing up your pc then thats what they will do. it wouldn't be the first time ccp has required everyone in eve to upgrade their system. what would ccp do if your ps4 needed upgrading to bring in required features to expand their vision. they would go to PC and those that truly care for the game world they created and love will follow. those that don't will leave and the playerbase as a whole will become stronger as has been the case for 11years now with eve. dont fool yourselfs thinking CCP will ever allow dust or any other game in their future to become stagnant with old mechanics and gfx. they will always chase perfection even at the cost of players See, now this is a guy who threw all his SP into fanboys. He can magically say whatever he feels and it becomes true. stuff like, what CCP does is art, they won't let things become stagnant *Obvious doesn't Dust much these past 2 years*, and player bases get stronger as people leave. Lol
believe what you want. i really don't care what you believe just like you don't care what i believe. you can sit there with a broken game like dust currently is or you can choose to accept the inevitable changes and follow dust as it moves to PC in its next evolution.
if your not willing to adapt to change then you are in with the wrong company. maybe you should move along now before the next changes you don't like

dont fool yourselfs thinking CCP will ever allow dust or any other game in their future to become stagnant with old mechanics and gfx. they will always chase perfection even at the cost of players You're (not "your") missing the point. CCP don't up the specs on EVE and force players out, they up the specs on EVE when more than 95% of existing players already meet the new requirements. They don't force the playerbase to upgrade to keep up. They wait for the playerbase to upgrade then work with the new tools that gives them.
You're (still not "your") missing another point too. THIS ISN'T ABOUT THE DECISION TO MOVE TO PC. That was always a possibility. The lie wasn't that CCP decided to move to PC. The lie was that they told us they weren't changing platform WHILE they were already in the process of moving to PC. The lie was that they told us they were working on DUST and explicitly stated they were working on DUST while working on Legion, and they've told us that Legion is not DUST. Either they're lying about Legion not being DUST, or they were lying about working on DUST while working on Legion. There is no "they didn't lie to us" option in there.
The game was ALWAYS planned for a move to next-gen. We had been told at Sony's E3 presentation that DUST was coming to PS4. That is no longer the case, but until Fanfest, we were given no reason to believe otherwise, in spite of it not being true. CCP's failure to provide that information was a lie of omission, and at best qualifies as a violation of laws about misleading conduct in many parts of the world. At worst, there are points about which they have directly lied, making it not merely misleading, but outright false advertising.
All that said, I'm still hoping that CCP are willing to do something to appease the playerbase, and to support us going forward. If they can do that, I'm likely to show up in Legion. But I don't currently feel like I can trust them to live up to what should be a reasonable expectation. |

The continued stupidity in this thread astounds me. There's a difference between defending CCP's idea to move to a better system, versus completely defending their recent purposeful withholding of information in order to obtain extra profits they never would have accrued.

I'm not just being prick online when I say these rude things to you people - I am being honest. It's a fact a lot of the stuff your spewing is biased non-sense. You may as well just come in here and say PC MASTER RACE. Your on a console game forum, what the **** do you expect???
You call Dust broken - I agree, I love to call it broken all the time, but it's not actually broken, more so then incomplete. And now, abandoned. Regardless if it would do better being completely re-worked else where, is irrelevant. We are here, and we paid and were told lies about our future for a very long time.
So, when I see people like you spewing non-sense, and it is quite literally non-sense, I doubt you understand anything you speak of, I just want to tell you over and over again to biomass. |

Listen dude, CCP lied about EVERYTHING when it came to Dust 514.
CCP will abandon the game, and start a NEW COMPLETELY DIFFERENT one called legion.
CCP will transfer the very bare minimum of stuff from dust to legion.
Dust is dead, Legion is vaporware, and CCP is full of empty promises.

Well I don't see where else these conversations about recent goings on can go. We know all we can know right now:
a) DUST will be moving to PC and they intend to add a lot more to it (better graphics, PVE, etc. etc.) and integrate it with EVE and Valkyrie (these being explained as the reasons for the move) b) Some people are happy about it, some people are ROYALLY pissed. c) CCP continued to have events and encourage buying Aurum even while they were working on Project Legion. Some people attribute sinister motives to this. Some think they were just trying to keep the game interesting and give us something to do while making a little bit of money off of their free game. And some couldn't give two *****, are fine with having spent real money on the game (especially those that intend to transfer the SP they earned with omegas to Legion) and laugh heartily at talk of BETRAYAL!!!!!. d) CCP didn't reveal Project Legion until months after they started working on it. (What influence their contract with Sony had on this is unknown.) d) When CCP talked about their EVE universe MMOFPS they called it "DUST 514" and not something else.
So now that we know that......I guess everyone can just do whatever they want and say whatever they want until DUST 2 comes out on PC and we'll see what we've got. And some of us will give feedback to CCP and do our part to help them make the game be as good as it can be. Some others will rage until they're spent. Some people will just shoot things. As the world turns....so go the days of our lives. |

I'm not mad that they're changing platforms. I'm mad that they felt the need to lie to us about it for so long. I would actually support them in there decision if they had done it in a classy way.
Instead they mislead us until the very last possible moment, and that is what pains us.

Most of them just sweep it under the rug and start with something fresh and new and never speak of the failure again. CCP chose instead to remain committed to their goals and try again. You ever tried that? People that operate like that tend to create awesome stuff, because they keep trying until it works.
If I promised to paint a painting for you, and you saw me working on it for several days and started to get attached to it, thinking it would be hanging above your mantle, but then I said "Dude I'm sorry. I can't give you this one. I had a specific vision for what I wanted to give you and this isn't quite it. But through making this painting I've figured out exactly what I want to paint for you and how I'm going to do it, so just wait another week or so and I'll give the painting I really wanted to make for you and it'll be awesome! Is that cool?" would you then scream at me, call me a liar, tear up the original painting, declare our friendship over, and storm out, knocking stuff over and spitting on stuff as you leave? Cuz that's kinda what you're doing here. |

1. You're wrong, because DUST isn't moving. DUST is being abandoned and Legion - directly stated to be a different game by CCP - is coming to PC and replacing it. 2. You're wrong, because the integration with EVE and Valkyrie wasn't stated to be the reason for the move. The reason given was that the PS3 can't handle their vision for the future of DUST.

We've made massive changes to everything going into the new game though, so it's really not EVE at all any more. You're going to love it *shows of slightly higher-definition EVE gameplay* isn't it amazing? Oh yeah, when we said we're porting your characters, we just meant the names.

dont fool yourselfs thinking CCP will ever allow dust or any other game in their future to become stagnant with old mechanics and gfx. they will always chase perfection even at the cost of players You're (not "your") missing the point. CCP don't up the specs on EVE and force players out, they up the specs on EVE when more than 95% of existing players already meet the new requirements. They don't force the playerbase to upgrade to keep up. They wait for the playerbase to upgrade then work with the new tools that gives them. You're (still not "your") missing another point too. THIS ISN'T ABOUT THE DECISION TO MOVE TO PC. That was always a possibility. The lie wasn't that CCP decided to move to PC. The lie was that they told us they weren't changing platform WHILE they were already in the process of moving to PC. The lie was that they told us they were working on DUST and explicitly stated they were working on DUST while working on Legion, and they've told us that Legion is not DUST. Either they're lying about Legion not being DUST, or they were lying about working on DUST while working on Legion. There is no "they didn't lie to us" option in there. The game was ALWAYS planned for a move to next-gen. We had been told at Sony's E3 presentation that DUST was coming to PS4. That is no longer the case, but until Fanfest, we were given no reason to believe otherwise, in spite of it not being true. CCP's failure to provide that information was a lie of omission, and at best qualifies as a violation of laws about misleading conduct in many parts of the world. At worst, there are points about which they have directly lied, making it not merely misleading, but outright false advertising.
All that said, I'm still hoping that CCP are willing to do something to appease the playerbase, and to support us going forward. If they can do that, I'm likely to show up in Legion. But I don't currently feel like I can trust them to live up to what should be a reasonable expectation.
man, you should have been in my corp.

exactly. all they have to do is say "dropsuit skills are not applicable" and you lose 20 million skillpoints. playing a dead title for two more years you'll have 50 million skillpoints in dropsuits. and they'll be gone. not applicable.
and vehicle skills... i think we can all agree that vehicles will need to be completely different if they're going to build a new game.
not applicable.

It will only help the game to have some people right at the start taking the bull by the horns and grabbing for power. It will generate emergent content faster. And the sandbox will be big enough for noobs with 1 mil SP to play in their corner with each other undisturbed until they're ready to venture out into the dangerous world...under the protective wing of this or that don from DUST.
And, as in EVE, SP advantages diminish over time. Someone with 30 mil SP will own someone with 10 mil SP, but 40 mil vs. 20 mil is more even, especially if the 20 mil guy has specialized. You stay in high sec until the lords of null sec have a use for you (which will be immediate in Legion, and we will be the lords) and then, even if you're still relatively weak, there's a place for you in the swarm, or horde, or whatever. Once the system is in place everything works within it to create emergent content. Even if some vengeful DUST players banded together to break the game and put CCP out of business, they'd just be generating emergent content. They would be putting money in CCP's pocket and helping the game. Resistance is futile. |

It'll be on PS5 which is basically a computer/mac rolled into one with hookers it'll cost 10,000 to own though, which Sony doesn't care at this point because they already won. If you're not up to date you deserve to fall behind, amiright? |

And your analogy here is way over the top. Ugh...I'm done trying to talk to haters. No, I act like you're downplaying what they've done here and acting like it wasn't a terrible breach of good faith AT ABSOLUTE BEST. They told us things that were quite simply not true on multiple occasions, and they left us with misconceptions they had set up because they didn't want to spoil some big reveal when any person outside the autistic spectrum (and probably a surprising number within it) could have told them it was a terrible idea that was going to backfire spectacularly (and some - the CPM - did).
You act like their blatant lies don't matter because they're still delivering what they promised, even though they AREN'T delivering it the way they promised to. They promised a massive MMOFPS on console with constantly-evolving content. They promised a PS4 version. They promised a lot of content on PS3 before they move to next-gen. What we're getting is NOTHING MORE of what was promised for PS3, and NO assurances of the PS4 version still being part of the plan, and a PC game that's explicitly stated NOT to be the same game we've been playing. You claim they've never lied to us WHILE STARING AT PROOF OF THEIR LIES, because they never lied before. Except that one time when they did and everyone was really angry at them. But that was ok, because they apologised. Just like they HAVEN'T YET OVER THIS HUGE MISTAKE. When they actually apologised, and start taking measures to make up for it, I'll stop pointing out that they've screwed up big time here, and I'll stop asking for an apology, BECAUSE THEY'LL HAVE GIVEN ME ONE.
You need proof? While working on Legion, we were directly told that DUST is still in development. You could argue that this isn't a lie, because Legion is DUST, but they've ALSO explicitly stated that Legion isn't DUST. So either Legion is DUST and they lied about that, or it isn't and they lied about working on DUST. It doesn't matter which, they lied.
And either way, there was a lie of omission by telling us they were focused on PS3 and NOT informing us when they changed their focus, and there were several direct lies where they re-iterated that they were still focused on PS3 after shifting their focus to Legion on PC.
Lies, deception, misleading sales tactics because people relying on the information they had were spending money some of them wouldn't (and some people who WOULD have spent money if they'd known earlier probably haven't)... You shouldn't be defending this. You want the game to succeed, right? Unless it HONOURS WHERE IT'S COMING FROM, it can't. |

On a positive note... Don't despair! Every single one of us will find gamer bliss in the near future. Some people will biomass their clones (and regret it later) and happily dive into Destiny or The Division (looks awesome) or The Elder Scrolls Online or whatever. Many of us will happily dive into Legion. A few will get girlfriends and not have time to care anymore, but they'll be happy cuz they'll be gettin busy if y'know what I mean. Of course all of us will eventually end up back in the EVE universe because it's already got its claws in us. You'll see. You'll try to give up DUST/Legion but find that other shooters are spoiled for you now. You'll see how A-MA-ZING Legion/Valkyrie/EVE is, brood for a while and finally give in and come back into the fold. When that time comes, hit me up. I'll be the iron-fisted yet whimsical overlord of 300 crazed pirates based in the deepest reaches of -1.0 space.....and I'll have 50 million SP more than you, but I'll welcome you with open arms and show you the ropes.

If it's handled right, then sure. In a few years, this will just be a hiccup. Maybe there will be a few new statues somewhere in New Eden, honouring those who fought CCP and ultimately lost the war to keep the game on PS3. Maybe there will be one with your name on it, or even mine. And maybe some of Legion's DUST vets will have our own unique dropsuits that newer players can never get their hands on.
But right now, if we roll over and pretend this isn't a problem, and let CCP steamroll our objections, we'll get exactly what we deserve.

I use to be a huge CCP fanboy, when Uprising launched I said give CCP time they will get Dust right. Then months past and Dust was getting worse. I said hey Eve started out rough they will get Dust fixed. You know the ten year plan.
I started noticing a horrible trend every single patch broke something. Right around August 2013 I said i don't CCP can code for the PS3. GTAV launched i left, but i always checked the forums daily.
I'm disappointed in CCP can't tell you how many Mag vets i converted to EVE Online. From this point forward I can no longer support CCP.
AS a gamer for over 30 years this is not how you treat your loyal fanbase. No matter how big or small. I can't believe anything from CCP anymore.
Anything with CCP on it i will stay far away and console gamers don't forget when a Dev/Publisher screws them over. Just ask EA the brand CCP is tarnished in the console community.

For example, having a player market integrated with EVE is one reason WHY they chose to move to PC, so that they can actually do it. They wanted to do it all on PS3 and couldn't. Now they're moving to PC so that they can actually fulfill their promise... Thats exactly the ******* point, Despite numerous warnings and Naysayers from EVE players and Early beta players, Despite the fact that it was a Known fact Next Gen consoles were to be coming out soon, CCP's Bullshit staff assured us they would be able to accomplish all this and more on PS3 and stated they Had no plans of abandoning the console in any near future! We took their word for it and supported the game on PS3 for 2 years, Money, Time, Feedback. All a lot of effort was put into the community to help see this game progress and become better...ON PS3!! Then shortly after we finally get all the racial suits we waited 2 years for and the first Decent update in a year, we find out that these Scumbag developers have been willy nilly coding the Game we were supposed to have for A different ******* platform with no sign of consolation for the Console players that supported them. Do you Really think CCP Just coded that Legion prototype in just a few short months? NO! Hell no, these guys couldn't even code a simple LOGOUT BUTTON without taking 6 months! They've been working on Legion for PC for probably half a year or even more, all the while we console guinea pigs have been Beta Testing and unknowingly money feeding the Legion beta known to us as Dust! Do you not see why I'm angry!?!? To defend their BS is shameful for anyone who took part in the Dust journey. They still say they don't have any plans on abandoning the console in the near future. And when Legion is released on PC you'll be able to transfer over your character with all his stuff intact. Do you want to play DUST as it was meant to be played? Then when the time comes, buy a PC (doesn't have to be top of the line) and play it. Not that important to you to play a better DUST? Sweet, go play another game on console. Everyone is taking this so personally as if CCP are like fascists declaring the supremacy of the PC Master Race and putting patches on the arms of all console players so that they can be identified as untouchable. Puh-lease!!! It has nothing to do with that! They're making the change purely because of technical limitations of the PS3! If DUST stays on the PS3 it's development will eventually reach the limits of the platform and then DUST will slowly die. They had to make the change because of hardware, software, Sony getting in the way...these kinds of things. The fact that they were committed to PS3 before means that they were optimistic and trying to make it work on PS3. It also shows their lack of foresight in contingency planning for the possibility that PS3 wouldn't work long term. That's a lot different from a LIE. And honestly, even if there was some douche among their decision makers that wasn't forthcoming when he should have been, I really don't care. I don't need devs to be moral saints. I need them to work hard to make DUST great. That's what they're trying to do, so I'm content. And by the way, when Legion comes out on PC, I will have to buy a new rig and I will do so happily.
As a PC gamer and a console [who probably has a PC that would crush yours unless you're running an 8-core i7], get off the bandwagon of the "PS3 limitations" and focus on only one point I've made throughout various posts on Dust:
technical limitation does nothing to affect public relations, game planning and direction nor imbalances present in the game. Should a commando running with 200 shield and 500 armor be attributed to the PS3 limitation? Should the inability to made an AI that avoids stacking of squads be solely caused the this devilry known as the PS3? Was it in fact the PS3 that somehow caused the assault rifle and Logi class to be broken!

PoP SoTa wrote:zzZaXxx wrote:Dear enraged neckbeards,
I challenge you to produce conclusive evidence that CCP made ANY promise to the community that they did not keep. Let's start with the most obvious:
1. True or False: CCP promised that DUST 514 would continue to be developed on the PS3 indefinitely and would never transfer to another platform.
False. All their actions show that they intended to develop it into the future on PS3. Back when they decided to develop DUST on PS3 they undoubtedly saw an opportunity and thought they were making the best choice available to them. Then after Uprising revealed the glaring flaws in the game and how far their official release of the game was from their/our vision inspired by EVE, they started iterating almost monthly in an effort to to get the game to where it needed to be. No game in history has been iterated on so frequently and gone through as many changes and transformations as DUST has in one year.
So CCP made an unprecedented effort to improve DUST and, it would seem, finally came to a breaking point where they had to make a decision: a) accept the limitations of the PS3 and just make the best game possible within those limitations or b) remake the game on PC without those limitations so that it could finally become the game that they originally intended. They chose PC.
Now, first of all, anyone who appreciates how special and amazing EVE is knows CCP would be fools to settle for less than making the EVE of shooters. They couldn't settle, so they chose to move to PC. I wouldn't want them to settle, and anyone who would just doesn't get it. If you don't get it, learn about EVE and you'll start to see how important it is that DUST move to PC so that it can become a true MMOFPS integrated with EVE....or just move on to another game on console.
Secondly, they made this decision based on real technical game development problems which they have professional knowledge of and you forum trolls have next to no understanding of. Devs say, "Well we really need to move to PC so that we can finally start to do x, y, and z with the game and finally move beyond limitations a, b, and c." Forum trolls, not understanding the techno talk and just being plain mad, say "NO! You lied! You BETRAYED us! The 514 stands for May 2014! You planned this all along, using us as guinea pigs so that you could troubleshoot for the real game you intended all the time! I'm biomassing my clone and protesting naked!"
To think that they planned this all along or were trying to milk people of money with recent events before they revealed the truth is outlandish and paranoid. Flaming trolls along these lines are just embarassing, and most of the arguments and vitriol being spewed out on these forums by the raging disappointed are ridiculous and just make the community look like a bunch of immature, self-centered neckbeards with underdeveloped social skills. Produce a shred of evidence. They have clearly said, in effect, "Yes, unless the zombie apocalypse or some crazy lawsuit from Sony keeps us from being able to do it, we will absolutely ensure that you to keep all of your SP and inventory in the PC version."
Show some class and self-respect. A PS3 FPS forum is the only place on earth that you won't be b*tchslapped for talking all your crazy sh*t and throwing such rash accusations around, and just generally being obnoxious in response to these changes. Be grateful that CCP is doing what they HAVE TO DO in order to push DUST 514 past the realm of mediocrity that it has been mired in and attempting, at their own expense, to make it a truly great and unique game that will live up to the standard set by EVE. If you don't care about DUST meeting and exceeding that standard....bye.
TL;DR: Your'e wrong. Do me a favor: Go to youtube, search for 2012 dust keynotes fanfest presentation. Watch the video - notice something? Like all the stuff coming out in 2013 that never did and are now going to be on a different platform completely? Do you remember, "LASER FOCUSED ON PS3" Stop being a fanboy. Didn't read your post btw. But the line "Only on a ps3 forum would you get away without being... blah blah" was pretty stupid, do you even internet, bro?
Here you go, fanfest 2012

Also, all they've said about UE3 is that the CURRENT BUILD they used to show the project at Fanfest is on UE3, nothing about future plans being to stay with that engine.
That statement DOESN'T negate the statement that Legion is to be developed in UE4. |

You have no idea why people are mad do you.
Im not going to list all the things for you.
Go watch CCP fanfest 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011.
Go read every page on the official dust 514 Website.
Then think if the advertised vision matches the actual game. And you know, all thats stuff is fine, if you continue to develop the game. But Dust 514 development has essential ceased because CCP admitted they can't finish the vision on the PS3.

Let be honest. It's CCP that wasn't upto the task. The PC is easier for them, the PS3 was too much of a challenge for them to develop on. It's not that the hardware couldn't handle it. Let's get real, who needs a 5x5Km map when you can never use more than 1x1km? It was tons of vision, with horrendous implementation. Sure the PS3 has it's limits, but don't blame it for CCP's failures. No offense, but you have no idea what you're talking about. While the OP is still just a ****, who himself is missing the big picture (while bashing everyone else), PS3 development has been rough for MANY game developers out there. Remember Fallout 3? I sure do & Bethesda didn't get a free pass on it or Skyrim. They had to fix the problems with their games. I finished both of those game or the PS3, they had plenty of problems but were eventually dealt with. Also those were completely open world games that were released years before this lobby shooter & still performed & looked better than Dust514. |

I thank God that I left Phoenix Fed before Fanfest, so as not to be associated with your own unique brand of reality-denying insanity. I left for different specific reasons, but this is a prime example of the results of those deeper issues.
Enjoy Legion, but don't forget to bring your own lube as CCP has added a recent clause in the EULA that they can enter your home and violate you anally while sleeping.
P.S. Not hating on all of TPF, several close friends still there, but as a group I found this person as more representative of the group than others. |

Exactly right. Other developers can quite easily get much greater performance from their games on the PS3 while developing a MULTIPLATFORM GAME.
Dust is the result of cut-rate chinese labor, not PS3 hardware limitations.

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 bi-tch to design.
Their have been MMO's on console products before. Look at Playstation 2 with its Final Fantasy 11.. Noted it was better on PC but it was more than capable on the console product, just not nearly as good. On PS3 check out defiance, DC Universe or Final Fantasy 14 reborn which are all MMO's. MMO's or open sandbox gameplay is not the limitation on the console and CCP was careful enough not to say that. |

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.

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.

It's been explicitly stated that the current demo for Legion is running in UE3 by one of the devs on Twitter.
I'm pretty sure UE4 was mentioned as something being considered for the project though. Don't have a direct source I can link right now, unfortunately, so it's possible I'm piecing that together from assumptions made on the forums. |

So I think we know whos dumb because you keep jumping to conclusions without clarification and more so that you have not go a single link to provide evidence for your claim of Unreal engine 4.
Note... Unreal 4 is extremely high quality. Legion looks good but not that good. Here is a video with how Unreal 4 looks on console and PC. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtfCWYjOsvI

Why isn't this thread locked by now? Google has ten thousands examples. This only make the CCP white nights look stupid and will only lead to there exit as they wake up. CCP do yourself a favor stop asking your fans to apologize for you, stand up and admit your errors (HILMAR). Your reputation is falling apart and your making your crazy but overly loyal fans jump through hoops they shouldn't have to. It's like watching a domestic disturbance on cops where the battered wife says he was just drunk.

Also, all they've said about UE3 is that the CURRENT BUILD they used to show the project at Fanfest is on UE3, nothing about future plans being to stay with that engine. That statement DOESN'T negate the statement that Legion is to be developed in UE4. devs have already stated that they don't intend to use the unreal 4 engine. source? Its Unreal Engine 3 Stfu |

This right here, bottom line CCP talk to much. All they ever wanted was folks to buy Aurum while they worked on Legion. The name CCP will forever be tarnished with the console community. From this point forward CCP needs to be quiet. About Dust514 and Legion the damage has been done.
They cut themselves off from the console market with this foolish move. Watch anytime any gaming media Outlet does an article about CCP regarding legion watch the comment section flame them.

OH, I didn't realize that Eve on Mac had a different name, a different engine, that it was born by killing Eve on PC. I also didn't realize that there was a massive character change when going from PC to mac, and that not all of your stuff was going to be there, and that the developers in fact promised not one thing as far as your prior characters on eve PC.
Thanks for correcting me.

Now at least my evidence wither its flawed or not, its still consider reasonable form of evidence given how the guys quoting it, works within CCP. Provide Links buddy |

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 only thing that blurs the line between the two products is really does one game have more purpose to play than the other? |

Oh and if the janitor hears some devs talking about this or that feature while mopping the floors then yeah hes a source albeit a secondary source, actually just like Saberwing
Man this thread just turned into a box full of crazy, fan boys on their knees sucking CCP, people with facts being treated like man men raving about the end times, and others losing their **** over the definition of "Source" Crazy? Business as usual.
Thats actually kind of sad, I hope you have a job that keeps you away from sharp objects and other safety hazards I dont say this to insult you but out of genuine concern for your well being |

There's no way yet to conclude if Legion will be on Unreal Engine 3 or 4. What they've been working on has been on U3 but it seems that's more due to it being faster and more convenient for them to tweak what they were already using in order to try all the new stuff they're testing with Legion. That's just for this "test version" though. We don't know if they'll stick with that when they start fully developing it for PC. I'm sure I've read/heard a dev talk about Unreal 4 at some point. If they're even mentioning it I think it's likely that they'll be using it. We'll see. |

Until CCP has the green light for development and shows us more toward beta version of Legion we just won't know it graphically capabilities. Like you said they could change their minds midway through the project. I'd imagine they used Unreal 3 to demonstrate the idea of Legion before deciding which software product to use for the project.
Truth Behind U3 is that its pretty darn good engine but what keeps Dust from being graphically impressive is the PS3 architecture , its very difficult to work with. Many games on PS3 had various trouble working with it architecture and because of it had very difficult time reaching it full potential. |

That depends on what you mean by superior, if the difference is graphics only then yes I would agree its the same regardless of platform but when you start talking about features and content I dont think its the same game at all To use Street Fighter as an example again vanilla SF4 and the upcoming Ultra SF4 might be essentially the same thing but vary a great deal in terms of content and gameplay so much so that its an entirely different game despite being nearly identical at a casual glance
I dont know, maybe its because Ive been playing fighting games for years where reusing assets and such is very common but each game is its own distinct thing even if only separated by a year such as the KOF series even if they play near identically
I think I rambled a bit but what Im getting at is balance tweaks and content changes will make Legion is own entirely separate game from Dust despite reusing assets and it has nothing to do with what console its on
But I dont know why Adam is even arguing the point that its just a PC port when the Devs themselves have stated that its a new game |

Compare it with Street figher 4 without updates of balance patches or new content with a Street fighter 4 with new content.
For example Street fighter 4 vs Street fighter 4 Ultra. Two same games with two differences. See my point now? |

After all, if it weren't for our support and feedback over the past two years, there probably wouldn't even be an Eve: Legion coming to the PC for you guys to play at all. Or maybe you should thank the Eve PC players for funding Dust in the first place (You know, CCP's paying customers). It wouldn't exist at all without us. You're welcome. Again, if a person bought Aurum to purchase in-game items they are paying customers. Free game or not, the Aurum was not free. You can remove yourself from the pedestal now.
Did CCP take away your Aurum? Did they close down the Dust servers? Did anyone force you to waste money on a promise of things to come? Did you seriously expect CCP to keep developing for the PS3 for ten years? It has been known for a long time that the game would migrate to a new platform (or be closed down), and lo and behold - it just did.
And yeah, I get it, CCP are effin' useless when it comes to keeping promises. Anyone who's paid any attention to how they roll would know that, and I'm sorry that you guys had to learn this the hard way. The fanfest keynote was a real **** move.
I think the right thing for CCP to do would be to refund any Aurum purchase the last month that hasn't already been lost on the battlefield. That will of course never happen, since they just took a huge hit to their finances after cancelling WoD. Their hedge fund investors probably want some returns.
But - A promise, a roadmap, a list of "things we want to do" is not a written contract.

Effectively, for some people, yes they did. People bought their Aurum based on a promise for a PS4 version which has since been stated not to be in the works at the moment. In some cases, the person already owns the PS4 they were planning to play on, and doesn't have an up-to-date PC or the money (or the desire) to buy one.

Ive spent the evening reading through this wonderful thread, and fall firmly into the unhappy console camp. These are dark days indeed!
I'm not going to try to add any points of my own, they have been said much more deeply and eloquently than I ever could (I'm looking specifically at you, Blacknova, you clever devil) but I would like to thank all of the posters for a very entertaining read.
props even go to the OP -most of you may not like him, but you gotta admit hes fighting his corner and taking on all comers!
Still a CCP lapdog though

Quote:Did CCP take away your Aurum? Did they close down the Dust servers? Well not yet, they just stopped adding new content. They confirmed this. Fixes don't count. They sold Dust as an MMO, ending the development of new content is the swan song of any MMO. Bet they wouldn't do that EVE players without notice, not if they expected these people to buy another game from them ever again. But we are just stupid console players, they think they don't have to show us that courtesy.
Quote:Did anyone force you to waste money on a promise of things to come? They didn't force me to, they misled me on purpose because they believed I wouldn't pay if I knew that Dust was dying.
Quote: Did you seriously expect CCP to keep developing for the PS3 for ten years? Nope. I never read anything about the "ten year plan", I wish I had, it would have struck me as highly suspicious. The most confusing thing about all this is how they thought they could get away with that lie. Clearly they never meant 10 years of support on the ps3, but oopsy-daisy! they forgot to clear that up with fans, and coincidentally profited from it.

my biggest problem is the no pve part... they really need to add that to ps3 regardless as well as that other stuff..
though pve should be the bigger priority.
it can be difficult to work within limitations of a system sometimes. but if u play eve on an old out dated computer or any game really. the game really isnt that good. cause its highest settings are impossible to run. as well as the fact that all computers will eventually become super slow.
consoles just only seem to become obsolete the second the next version comes out. and since companies seem to be doing away with backwards compatibility and such theres plenty of reason to keep a ps3 and continue playing it. a game like dust 514 which should always be getting new lore content added to the game and updated and maintenance should be a game that keeps ppl coming back. no matter what.and should continue to keep getting new players.
mlt vets are eternal. they shall be the bane to proto scrubs everywhere...
dust 514 shall be eternal.

Quote:It has been known for a long time that the game would migrate to a new platform Link please. As far back as closed beta, they had been talking about the 10 year plan and it specifically included a move to some form of next-gen platform at a point where such a move was reasonable to make, but anything past the next year or so was pretty short on the "planning" side of things. It was never so much a "plan" as a promise that the game would still be around that far into the future, using EVE's 10-year history as evidence that they could do it. They ALSO used EVE's past history of phasing out support for older systems while adding new content to confirm that the game WASN'T going to be held back and locked into PS3 forever, because MOVING ON WAS PART OF THE PLAN.
Most people didn't question the 10 year plan, because it was never a 10 years on PS3 plan.
The immediate problem where they "didn't clear things up" was that they had announced they were CURRENTLY "laser focused on PS3" and explicitly stated they had big things coming for DUST and that 1.8 and even 1.9 wouldn't be the end for DUST, as well as having Sony show DUST 514 promotional material as part of their PS4 presentation, stating that the game would be eventually coming to PS4. When they decided to reverse that course of action, they not only avoided telling anyone, but effectively muzzled the few who did know (CPM + NDA = ???). Because of their decision to keep quiet, their Aurum sales during the period where they've been working on Legion are pretty harshly smeared with the taint of false advertising and misleading conduct, partiularly given the fact that statements were made by company reps that were outright lies about the direction being taken by the dev team. On top of that, they hadn't just been selling Aurum, but they had special event sales with rare items and discounts on things to encourage people to effectively throw money away based on STILL FRESH promises that had already been gone back on without telling the customers. |

After all, if it weren't for our support and feedback over the past two years, there probably wouldn't even be an Eve: Legion coming to the PC for you guys to play at all. Or maybe you should thank the Eve PC players for funding Dust in the first place (You know, CCP's paying customers). It wouldn't exist at all without us. You're welcome. Again, if a person bought Aurum to purchase in-game items they are paying customers. Free game or not, the Aurum was not free. You can remove yourself from the pedestal now. Did CCP take away your Aurum? Did they close down the Dust servers? Did anyone force you to waste money on a promise of things to come? Did you seriously expect CCP to keep developing for the PS3 for ten years? It has been known for a long time that the game would migrate to a new platform (or be closed down), and lo and behold - it just did. And yeah, I get it, CCP are effin' useless when it comes to keeping promises. Anyone who's paid any attention to how they roll would know that, and I'm sorry that you guys had to learn this the hard way. The fanfest keynote was a real **** move. I think the right thing for CCP to do would be to refund any Aurum purchase the last month that hasn't already been lost on the battlefield. That will of course never happen, since they just took a huge hit to their finances after cancelling WoD. Their hedge fund investors probably want some returns. But - A promise, a roadmap, a list of "things we want to do" is not a written contract. CCP has way more interaction with it's players than other game developers, and of course that interaction is mostly about where the game is going, changes, balancing, etc. And then there's Fanfest and twitter and all that. So there's a lot of communication that builds up expectations. Most other game companies just leave their players in the dark until the product is ready. Heck, most don't even have a concept of community feedback being part of the development process. Sometimes CCP has to change course and it's jarring to the community, but that better than having been treated like total consumers with no input the whole time. |

really a quote you want to use? EDIT: Just in case you missed it, no, it is not what anyone would call a solid quote. 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. HE PREFACED THE COMMENT WITH HE DOESN"T KNOW. God you are dumb.
It was actually dumber of the community manager to even say that. Community managers are responsible for the coordination and public relations effort. While they don't have to know coding, they need to know enough information about the product that would be answered. IF the assumption was "no one was going to ask that", that's flat out lazy of him. If the honestly didn't know, then he's somewhat out of touch of what is going on with a product he is responsible for understanding...
oh **** did I just accuse someone at CCP of being out of touch with their own product, how silly of me, I could I have ever arrived at that conclusion! Whatever gave me THAT thought now
IF you want a more intelligently thought out dialectic approach then if they already worked out an Alpha UE3, then it'd be easier to run it throughout unless they desire to make to different versions and test it simultaneously with the game beign released on UE4 but tested on UE3; the game being built on a UE4 is easier to develop with from a coding standpoint but does seem to support the lighting and texture features that are prominently heavy in Dust.
But it also stands to make it a bad way to use your resources and creating a game from one engine and transferring it to another isn't as easily prolific either. Currently the only game I know of to do an Alpha and Beta build with different sets of codes is Archage with their reliance on the Beta for the actual game and to stress test/bug detect the actual game build and Alpha for feedback and general impression purposes. But CCP doesn't seem like they're in the financial position to either pull this off or even support it in the manner that ArchAge does.
I once walked into a store and wanted a SSD. The clerk went down the list and once i got the one i wanted, I asked for the cage kit to put int in my desktop. They looked at me weird wondering what I meant. That's how some of us feel when talking to CCP; we're not asking all of them to be masters of their products but sometimes the questions gamers ask from engines to platform codes you should prepare yourself to answer and not knowing it makes you look dumb as much as the person who accuses the individual of pointing this out. |

The ONLY issue I have with this whole thing is the way CCP handled the announcement. It was very shady and they could have done it much, much better. I think they need to upgrade their PR department in addition to upgrading the game. I agree that the way it was presented was not sensitive to what the reaction would be. But COME ON people! They're Icelandic neckbeards that stare at screens all day and fiddle with code! Yes, they should have better PR but they've basically come out and said, "Oops! Yeah we didn't answer some really obvious, glaring questions right up front. Sorry about that. Now that it's ONE DAY since then, we'll clear all that stuff up. Oh, and we really want your feedback as we move forward and want the community to be involved in developing the next evolution of DUST." What do y'all do in real life when someone says, "Oops sorry!" a day after they got you all twisted and then do their best to clear up the misunderstanding?" Slap them in the face and say "YOU BETRAYED ME!!! I"M NOT YOUR FRIEND ANYMORE!!!" Depends greatly on how bad they screwed up. In my line of work (monitoring firewalls) honestly if i screw up for 1 hour (or even type in the wrong command like reload, reboot, or init 6 ) it could simply mean i get fired. if i was to intentionally lie to a customer and then try to explain why i lied the next day.. well there would be no next day i would have been fired that night. So do i feel bad about the flack ccp has been getting? Not at all in fact here is a bottle of oxygen to fan those flames! |

zzZaXxx wrote:Dear enraged neckbeards,
I challenge you to produce conclusive evidence that CCP made ANY promise to the community that they did not keep. Let's start with the most obvious:
1. True or False: CCP promised that DUST 514 would continue to be developed on the PS3 indefinitely and would never transfer to another platform.
False. All their actions show that they intended to develop it into the future on PS3. Back when they decided to develop DUST on PS3 they undoubtedly saw an opportunity and thought they were making the best choice available to them. Then after Uprising revealed the glaring flaws in the game and how far their official release of the game was from their/our vision inspired by EVE, they started iterating almost monthly in an effort to to get the game to where it needed to be. No game in history has been iterated on so frequently and gone through as many changes and transformations as DUST has in one year.
So CCP made an unprecedented effort to improve DUST and, it would seem, finally came to a breaking point where they had to make a decision: a) accept the limitations of the PS3 and just make the best game possible within those limitations or b) remake the game on PC without those limitations so that it could finally become the game that they originally intended. They chose PC.
Now, first of all, anyone who appreciates how special and amazing EVE is knows CCP would be fools to settle for less than making the EVE of shooters. They couldn't settle, so they chose to move to PC. I wouldn't want them to settle, and anyone who would just doesn't get it. If you don't get it, learn about EVE and you'll start to see how important it is that DUST move to PC so that it can become a true MMOFPS integrated with EVE....or just move on to another game on console.
Secondly, they made this decision based on real technical game development problems which they have professional knowledge of and you forum trolls have next to no understanding of. Devs say, "Well we really need to move to PC so that we can finally start to do x, y, and z with the game and finally move beyond limitations a, b, and c." Forum trolls, not understanding the techno talk and just being plain mad, say "NO! You lied! You BETRAYED us! The 514 stands for May 2014! You planned this all along, using us as guinea pigs so that you could troubleshoot for the real game you intended all the time! I'm biomassing my clone and protesting naked!"
To think that they planned this all along or were trying to milk people of money with recent events before they revealed the truth is outlandish and paranoid. Flaming trolls along these lines are just embarassing, and most of the arguments and vitriol being spewed out on these forums by the raging disappointed are ridiculous and just make the community look like a bunch of immature, self-centered neckbeards with underdeveloped social skills. Produce a shred of evidence. They have clearly said, in effect, "Yes, unless the zombie apocalypse or some crazy lawsuit from Sony keeps us from being able to do it, we will absolutely ensure that you to keep all of your SP and inventory in the PC version."
Show some class and self-respect. A PS3 FPS forum is the only place on earth that you won't be b*tchslapped for talking all your crazy sh*t and throwing such rash accusations around, and just generally being obnoxious in response to these changes. Be grateful that CCP is doing what they HAVE TO DO in order to push DUST 514 past the realm of mediocrity that it has been mired in and attempting, at their own expense, to make it a truly great and unique game that will live up to the standard set by EVE. If you don't care about DUST meeting and exceeding that standard....bye.

Exactly my point. So does it make it another game? I really don't have an answer for that. But I see his point has for why he thinks its different game. Edit: just to clarify, these are my supporting arguments for Adam of Eve's arguments. So basically I can understand why people would say its two different games. Whether it's the same game or not is a moot point. It's on another platform!

TL;DR: Your'e wrong.
I raise the ante by saying this:
I don't want a better DUST 514...I want a BETTER COMPANY from CCP! A better company says they made mistakes and we'll improve and be more inclusive. A better company says "we pissed off a lot of you with our broken game and we'll throw the whole resources of the company to make it the envy of others". You know what kills me, COMPANIES HAVE GONE TO THESE EXTREMES! Anyone remember when a game title called FF14 came out? It was voted worse game year of its release [just like how Dust was voted so last year]. They didn't segregate the playerbase and shutdown and create a brand new game. They went on basically saying "we're going to fix this game because failure means the ruin of the whole company".
They literally fired nearly all of the key players in the original release and brought in the best talent they could get on the project and from day one the new developer in charge made it a point to outline a map and constantly communicate to the playerbase that this is what will happen, how they'll fix it and integrate it into the current storyline. It worked and anyone who played and posted a youtube of the first FF14 would tell you all it had were great graphics and NOTHING ELSE!
That's the problem, Dust has so much more than "great graphics" and doesn't seem inclined to changing people or bringing in talent to move it toward a positive direction. You can say "its not CCP's way" but at the same time a company giving a message that can be interpreted that "we don't want your business" isn't very conducive to its growth either.
I read this letter by SOE's J-Smed on EQ: http://smedsblog.com/2014/02/11/the-sandbox-mmo/
I think that last paragraph really reiterates the biggest problem PS3/console players have raised a flag to: this isn't EvE its years later in a different market and a different time and tackling problems like they did EvE doesn't cut it anymore. WoD is no more and soon Dust514 won't be too. When Legion comes out it'll be a "new title" with a smaller playerbase than Dust, so how can that save CCP even? |

Players are used to upgrading their system as time progresses. Everybody understands that the PS3 won't live forever and won't last during another 10 years of development. These players don't mind switching to a PS4 in due time. Switching to different system is something different. Other players, other controls, new and different hardware, compatibility with their TV, etc.. It's not a logical step to expect.
As for your comment that they already shipped a PS3 copy - how does that align with CCP's laser-focused 10-year development plan? And the pilot suit?

DUST 514 takes place in the massive, persistent EVE Universe, which has been thriving for over ten years, contains hundreds of thousands of EVE Online players, and spans thousands of solar systems and individual planets. A major war in the EVE Universe could involve thousands of players at once. DUST 514 can support 24v24 matches in a single battle in a single district on a single planet, and there can be multiple battles on a planet happening simultaneously, impacting each other in real time. The scale of DUST 514 is unprecedented.

What if they promised 10 years free service as part of the sale, and then refused after only one year? |

I challenge you to produce conclusive evidence that CCP made ANY promise to the community that they did not keep. Let's start with the most obvious:
1. True or False: CCP promised that DUST 514 would continue to be developed on the PS3 indefinitely and would never transfer to another platform.
False. All their actions show that they intended to develop it into the future on PS3. Back when they decided to develop DUST on PS3 they undoubtedly saw an opportunity and thought they were making the best choice available to them. Then after Uprising revealed the glaring flaws in the game and how far their official release of the game was from their/our vision inspired by EVE, they started iterating almost monthly in an effort to to get the game to where it needed to be. No game in history has been iterated on so frequently and gone through as many changes and transformations as DUST has in one year.
So CCP made an unprecedented effort to improve DUST and, it would seem, finally came to a breaking point where they had to make a decision: a) accept the limitations of the PS3 and just make the best game possible within those limitations or b) remake the game on PC without those limitations so that it could finally become the game that they originally intended. They chose PC.
Now, first of all, anyone who appreciates how special and amazing EVE is knows CCP would be fools to settle for less than making the EVE of shooters. They couldn't settle, so they chose to move to PC. I wouldn't want them to settle, and anyone who would just doesn't get it. If you don't get it, learn about EVE and you'll start to see how important it is that DUST move to PC so that it can become a true MMOFPS integrated with EVE....or just move on to another game on console.
Secondly, they made this decision based on real technical game development problems which they have professional knowledge of and you forum trolls have next to no understanding of. Devs say, "Well we really need to move to PC so that we can finally start to do x, y, and z with the game and finally move beyond limitations a, b, and c." Forum trolls, not understanding the techno talk and just being plain mad, say "NO! You lied! You BETRAYED us! The 514 stands for May 2014! You planned this all along, using us as guinea pigs so that you could troubleshoot for the real game you intended all the time! I'm biomassing my clone and protesting naked!"
To think that they planned this all along or were trying to milk people of money with recent events before they revealed the truth is outlandish and paranoid. Flaming trolls along these lines are just embarassing, and most of the arguments and vitriol being spewed out on these forums by the raging disappointed are ridiculous and just make the community look like a bunch of immature, self-centered neckbeards with underdeveloped social skills. Produce a shred of evidence. They have clearly said, in effect, "Yes, unless the zombie apocalypse or some crazy lawsuit from Sony keeps us from being able to do it, we will absolutely ensure that you to keep all of your SP and inventory in the PC version."
Show some class and self-respect. A PS3 FPS forum is the only place on earth that you won't be b*tchslapped for talking all your crazy sh*t and throwing such rash accusations around, and just generally being obnoxious in response to these changes. Be grateful that CCP is doing what they HAVE TO DO in order to push DUST 514 past the realm of mediocrity that it has been mired in and attempting, at their own expense, to make it a truly great and unique game that will live up to the standard set by EVE. If you don't care about DUST meeting and exceeding that standard....bye.
TL;DR: Your'e wrong. Do me a favor: Go to youtube, search for 2012 dust keynotes fanfest presentation. Watch the video - notice something? Like all the stuff coming out in 2013 that never did and are now going to be on a different platform completely? Do you remember, "LASER FOCUSED ON PS3" Stop being a fanboy. Didn't read your post btw. But the line "Only on a ps3 forum would you get away without being... blah blah" was pretty stupid, do you even internet, bro?
fanboy, lol, perfect explanation

To name a few games. Planetside 2, Warframe, Battlefield 3, Battlefield 4, War Thunder, Dawngate, Dota 2, Smite, GTA, EVE (lol i know), and even going to go as far as saying Call of Duty. Just to name a few (the list goes on much longer). All of these games have had more meaningful updates over the course of the past year than dust has. Crawl out of that hole you live in. There are better games out there.
I know I mentioned a few PC games in there, but you're comment was that 'no game in history' blah blah blah.

ccp's been promising that we would be getting MAVs, Jets, Hoverbikes and pve for ps3 but oh wait their doing that to legion.
Lasers are not usually 'focused', they are collimated light. CCP knew that and used it to fool you - but did not break a promise. Bwahahah.

Good read... lol...OP is an idiot.
DUST =/= Legion. It's basically a sequel. So promises made in for DUST is not promises that carrying over to Legion because "it's the same game"... what kind of fail logic is that?! lol
Anyway, here's my comprehensive list of promises broken:
- Vita app: Never saw the light of day. From being "soon" to "never was"
- Gun customization: A very basic element of any FPS that's worth a ****
- Painbucket: The ability to customize how your suit looks. From "soon" to "yea right!"
- Mechs, Jets, and other vehicles: just lol @ that whole thing
- More EvE integration: Ranging from DUST and EvE having 1 economy to DUST players being able to shoot at EvE ships.
- "Laser focused on PS3" ...
- "10 year development cycle"
- Player market:
