Lol, Destiny. I'll post this again for posterity's sake.

A little history lesson. In short, Bungie was on top with Myth II on the PC. Myth III was expected to be even better. Halo was their next big thing. Bungie, along with Blizzard, was a big Mac supporter since they were doing PC games just as that was becoming a big deal and Microsoft and the PC clones hadn't taken off yet.

So, Halo was getting heavily promoted for the Mac and Myth III had a big player base. Then the bottom fell out. Bungie sold its soul to Microsoft for funding to do Halo. Microsoft wanted Halo to be their premier title on their new console, the Xbox.

PC/Mac development was dropped. Also, they dropped support and development for Myth II. Myth II was sold to Take Two Interactive which pretty much just hastily finished it off and through it out there with bugs galore. Also, the biggest thing about Myth was that you could mod it and create maps and upload and distribute them. Myth III was 3d based and so even that was gone.

Bungie is the reason why Blizzard and WoW became number one on the PC.

Let's just say that NO, I would not support or expect any guarantees for Bungie products long term.

They lost my support 14 years ago. Can you really trust Bungie? Sure, more than CCP. However, They do have red in their record.

If it ever shows up on the PS4, I might check it out, though. It's just one of many video games out there, I'm sure I'll have no trouble at all finding something else to play. Loyalty to a game just seems a little silly and childish to me.

Eko Sol Strange Playings 250	Posted - 2014.05.09 02:55:00 - [10] - Quote I'll be honest. I've been very lazy and cheap in not getting a new computer since my laptop HSF stopped working. It gets too hot for games. I will eventually get a gaming computer but I'll tell you right now. I HATE FPS games. I really don't enjoy them. Dust is a very unique game in my mind. I will likely check it out eventually. If I don't get around to it because I end up playing a bunch of other stuff instead then so be it. But some of the coolest people I met aren't going to be able to play it on PC. I think it's fair to say that the player base will change drastically in a lot of ways. It's a different game. That being said. I much rather see a non-FPS version. Maybe something along the lines of StarCraft in that realm. Maybe then we'll get some fkn jets. PSN is "Ekopalm" I play D3, Child of Light, and solo games Also, Proto Trolling until I'm broke...

But I won't start dust 2.0 from scratch after putting in all this time and money into the promise of dust CCP left high and dry. If they make it worthwhile, I'll be in the wings. If they put it on the PS4 or OSX, I'll happily play and contribute where I left off with Dust. If I get treated fairly then I'll be patient and participate when I can. If I get **.. bye. You gotta hustle if you wanna make a dolla

I'll be keeping track of what's happening in the game though, and I'll also be watching what happens between now and then, including what news we get regarding the state of the game and the future of DUST. If they neglect DUST as badly in the lead-up to Legion as they've suggested they might, I definitely won't be a paying customer in Legion. If they DON'T neglect it, I may end up becoming an EVE subscriber as well (I've been tempted for years, but never had the right combination of free time and disposable income).

You point is still valid. More than that though, it's always easier to like a game that doesn't exist yet. It's called projection, or fantasy. Take your pick.

Unless Legion launches with graphics requirements that would make Crysis 3 openly weep, I predict many Dust mercenaries will move to Legion. But here is a much more telling question: how many mercs will SPEND MONEY on Legion? That's much harder to answer. Faith in CCP has waned... in a big way. I played, and loved Eve Online, and there was a time that I could approach fanboy levels of enthusiasm for CCP. Not anymore, not after they ******-up Dust. They will not be getting my hard earned cash unless Legion has everything they promised Dust would have, and then some. PvE, player market, full racial parity, the works.

Gamer boycotts generally do not work because there isn't a generic version. If I am angry at Pfizer, I buy generic Ibuprofen instead of Advil and I let the company know they will not get my business until I am placated in some fashion. Can't do that for games because so often there is no alternative for the same product. I could play Call of Duty instead of Battlefield for my fix on "modern military shooters" but there is not much comparison when it comes to something like Legion, EVE, or Valkyrie. "This is B.S!

Anyone who thought it was going to stay on the PS3 for any extended period of time was a fool. I was pissed because I had no other choice with the way the info was presented to me. I still believe that the goal is to get this thing on the PS4 ultimately. From listening to various podcasts it seems that CCP didn't want to make the promise of PS4 because they aren't far enough along with Legion to even pitch the idea to Sony. Dust opened up a big market for CCP and it's led to many Eve subs. The same will be said for Valkerie. Unless CCP is trying to be the first business on earth to limit it's market then you can bet that CCP wants Legion on the PS4 right next to Valkerie Level 3 Forum Warrior PSN: wbrom42

Nirwanda Vaughns 426th Infantry 628	Posted - 2014.05.09 16:46:00 - [46] - Quote its not so much boycotting Legion but more to do with no having a pc with specs to play it. i have considered building a pc for some time now as mine is probs 5-6yr old and while it will run things on medium specs like Skyrim, Grid 2 and EVE its mainly in the room to stream media to my ps3 and not much more. i think after being burnt by CCP in regards to DUST i'd have to see just what will transfer over and the performance or Legion to see wether i continue with this char or not. at the moment though after fanfest it feels like i've had a huge punch in the chest by CCP and its knocked all my love for the game completly out of me. its kinda like if i'd had a gf and bought her loads of gifts and then found out she'd been cheating on me with someone else hahaha Rolling with the punches
