Oh really?

I'm sure they have with all the housewives and grandmas getting nickel and dimed by Facebook games (j/k I really just mean that as playful ribbing of PC guys don't get all upset). Anyways, that really is good news for PC gamers and I hope they do get more multiplatform games like Destiny and GTA V etc.... You platform of preference is really just that, preference. Their are advantages to PC, to PS4, to XB1, and even to Wii U (I love my Wii U and the Nintendo games on it)

My OP was half a shot at CCP (cause still **** those wannabe norse cocksuckers) but it is also true that CCP cannot hang with the type of money the likes of EA and Activision will spend on their AAA FPS games. The PC is a safer space for small time chump developers like CCP.

Oh yeah, and mobile market is probably rolfstomping any other gaming platform anymore. I'm just tired of Mary Lilac's ignorant posts is all. Even though 87% of all statistics are made up as is, its a sure bet 100% of his statistics are.

i agree though with you, on the PS4 they compete with Destiny and the likes while on the PC they have a loyal fanbase and a developer toolset they, as a company, are more comfortable and familiar with. It just makes complete sense that they move to the PC imo.

Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.

So yeah CCP is probably being smart in staying on PC with all the other small time indie developers. I also thought Destiny was going to be on PC too but I learned it is console exclusive, so have at your Legion PC master race us console "peasants" will be just fine moving on.

More copies are sold on consoles then on the PC. R.I.P. Dust514 02 May 2014 EVE United

Amd dunno what is bigger PC market or Console market. But the indie market is booming ;) Yeah because if you make a game cheap enough you can make a little profit without selling a bunch of games. Same reason the indie movie scene had a boom. And hell I'm sure many of the guys dream of being the Minecraft douchebag someday. Most tankers are like sand people.

I hope the PC vs console wars between players dies down because its silly to think that you wouldn't be friends with someone or wish them ill because the prefer differnt shoes, soda, or ethnic foods (though Mexican is the best and anyone who thinks differently can go ** themselves ) but it seems like people (myself included) get so hateful about gaming platform preference.

The whole aurum sale scandal is why I hate free to play games... no matter they do they are trying to rip you off. This is why I try to stick to games with subscriptions.
