Don't know if they've updated the description on PSN, but here's what it says on the PS3 website:
Quote:DUST 514-« Overview
DUST 514 is a free-to-play massively multiplayer first-person shooter set in the notorious sci-fi universe of EVE Online. Become an immortal mercenary, build an empire, wage war on a galactic scale and change the galaxy of New Eden forever. With endless customization option and deep gameplay that rewards team interaction, DUST 514 offers ever-changing FPS action and a constantly evolving challenge.
Massive Persistent Universe: Wage war on the surfaces of far-flung planets with countless environmental combinations. Planetary Conquest: Marshal your forces in a continuous, ever-changing battle to conquer the worlds of New Eden and control their resources. Large-scale Warfare: Vie for control of unique sci-fi battlefields with up to 32 players in simultaneous combat. Endless Customization: Create custom mercenaries with lethal dropsuits, skills and weapons. Vehicles On-demand: Acquire, outfit and deploy heavily armed and armored vehicles, on land and in the skies. Social Sandbox: Build a formidable corporation with thousands of players as you seize the opportunities and bounties that come with galactic conflict. Connected Experience: For the first time ever, join forces in a cross-platform gaming experience with the immortal starship pilots of EVE Online to conquer New Eden, one skirmish at a time.
Did you get what you paid for/downloaded for free? Yes. Is the game still running for an extended period of time? Yes. Do they have any plans on shutting it down? Not even remotely.
Then why are you people whining? YOU chose to come on the forum. YOU chose to buy into CCP's promotions and announcements. YOU chose to pay money for a free-to-play game.
YOU are NOT entitled to the constant R&D of a game. Most video games are sold as hard, physical copies with little to no updates. You people have taken CCP's hard work for granted and now you are raising Hell about how CCP "created a PR nightmare." Maybe if you weren't so emotionally involved with a GAME and had realistic expectations you might not have believed every little thing CCP promised you. And let's be real here, a "10 year plan" is the most bogus, unrealistic expectation you could possibly have.
I am happy that Dust is not being removed from the PS3 any time soon. I'm not exactly thrilled that CCP has dismissed putting Legion on the PS4, but I recently realized that Valkyrie is a spaceship FPS that will be on PS4, so I'm a little relieved that they're not being completely foolish and are actually staying in the console market.
Dust isn't worthless now, it's not dead. Most of my in-game friends and most of the people who have a BACKBONE are still playing it because they realize that all their hard work the past year has not been taken away from them quite yet.
It's still online. It's not going anywhere.

At least Legion has a hope of being what that quote describes, God knows DUST couldn't hold a candle to that lol.
just because you have 14K likes doesn't mean everything you say is right

Some of the grandiose words like "endless" and "constantly changing, evolving" are a bit false, and this entire sentence: Connected Experience: For the first time ever, join forces in a cross-platform gaming experience with the immortal starship pilots of EVE Online to conquer New Eden, one skirmish at a time.
But everything else is as described.

You Legion fanboys are like snipers with tunnel vision. Someone needs to melee you all to death.

It's a video game. Take a chill pill. Either it succeeds and we have the game we were sold on, or it flops, and we move on to brighter pastures. In the meantime, you're plenty welcome to play DUST, since the servers won't be shut down anytime soon.
I actually wanted it to be on PS4 as well as PC. What I meant by that comment is it gets under my skin that - pro Legion or anti Legion - everyone is saying Dust is a lost cause. Well it's not.

Will you anti-Dust people stop spewing childish insults and actually make a logical point for once?
I have yet to see any of you address the fact that your expectation - for Dust to be slaved away at by CCP even though they're probably not even profiting off it anymore and the game is essentially complete - is unrealistic.
Most gamers don't play a game specifically to be catered to by expecting it to constantly be updated and improved. Dust is just like any other game now - a permanent, final rendition that can only be continued by sequels - not patches.
I guess there might be a lot of MMORPGs that are patched all the time, but let's be frank here, it's more of a MMOFPS.
