We all know deep down that dust never left beta no matter what the devs say. We've constantly tested new weapons, buffing, nerfing, tweaking, reporting bugs. We got stuck in walls, fell through the map, spawned with invalid fits and spawned blind, we've figured out some cheats like farming wp with a reptool and a tank, head-glitching or reviving the same player 100 times just to get killed over and over by a friend on the other team. We've shown what works and what doesn't.
So instead of having to do this all over again with legion when you bring out your new un-tested toys for players to fight with. how about you release them in dust first? let us test the **** out of MTACs, or the rest of the racial vehicles and weapons. Increase the map size, add pilot suits, commander roles, how about add everything you god damn promised us! you must have some of these finished? or maybe you haven't finished the artwork?.. well give us a placeholder till you finish it, or better yet include the community in your designs.
look i'm looking forward to legion, but not if im going to have wait a year to go through the same crap iv gone through the last 3 years!
You bring it, we test it, you fix it

yeaps now is the time to try out new things that can quickly be changed on the sever such as changing squad numbers. no reason not to test things so they can collect the data they want and adjust to get the effect they want.

Dust 514 = beta for Legion
That's why both games won't relate to each other but will still exist together.

This would at least give those who are left a purpose and a reason
to stay on. Right now the playerbase is divided into those who feel
cheated by Ccp and those who are looking to the future with Legion.
Doing something like this might placate the former and repair some
of the genius PR that this announcement has been. It would also mean
Dust doesn't just get binned. At least consider it...

The answer is three simple reasons
1. CCP has to pay Sony weeks in advance to put each patch through .... this slows down their ability to test and make changes quickly...
2. Not that Dust can be used as a test really anyway .... that would require putting unstable code which run the risk of bricking PS3 and destabilizing Sony's servers something that would make them VERY nervous.
3. 256 megs .... this is the biggest headache. There is simply not enough RAM for the vision .

They should. This has come up in a few threads and at one of the round table discussions. but......CCP.
I support legion. - it's more of a theoretical support. Depending on the feedback I get, it may become actual support.

seeing as both game run on the u3 engine I fully expect weapons/suits/vehicles assets to be ported back to dust from legion development (probably lower res versions ). but that's all im expecting I hope we might get a update of skirmish 1.0 but even that seems unlikely :( |

Well if they are using the same engine i imagine that it is probably easy to port stuff. |

DERP.
Because the blame was already put on PS3, devs are awesome and can continue their "work".
Because brown points with evetards community were already made.
Because that buys them time.
Because now they can con another demographic... or actually their usual demographic, that doesn't mind being conned. We bitched too much, tbh.
But IDK, maybe if we buy more Aurum!
I liked this game.

Legion is currently using unreal engine 3 not 4. Yep. I've brought up the question numerous times about Unreal 3 vs Unreal 4. Apparently we're using a hugely modified version of Unreal 3 now - to the point where moving to Unreal 4 just doesn't seem realistic. Most of the things we'd want from Unreal 4 we've already created ourselves at this point anyway! I do know though that the project is currently running DirectX 11. Edit: I think an example of where we've drastically improved beyond just Unreal 3 is the lighting. CCP Android works on this stuff a great deal. I'll try to get him to chime in with some details later.

On PS3 hardware. It cuts out a few problems with having the same engine but its by no means an easy port.
As a side edit, did you ever play Skyrim on the PS3? Remember all those bugs that the PC version never got? Thats because even though the two games had the same engine (creation engine) there was complications involving how the hardware interacted with it. Linki here if you want to read up on it.

Better question why didn't they listen when we said it wasn't ready to come out of beta in the first place? Could it be that the thought of resetting aur each build led to less sales. So push it out too soon bill the testers for as long as you can calling it a release, then crap on most of them and expect them to keep paying to beta your crappy game. Get real we were all fooled beta testing for CCP is for chumps.
Good. Use your aggressive feelings, boy. Let the hate flow through you.
