I'm not a fan of PC gaming especially competitively. i do indy and ratting in eve. will I build a PC for legion? NO! I don't care if it's easier than lego bricks being tossed against people who have plain old flat out better set up sucks balls. everyone is even (provided you have a good ISP) on console that's why I have one.

I feel posts like this are unnecessary; Legion will undoubtedly be ported over to the PS4 eventually.

I believe so. Though it is possible to access the forums from the PS3. However to do so you'd need to stomach the garbage known as the PS3 Web Browser.
When ever I tried it wouldn't let me log in.
Can't say I'm all that surprised.

You are making a really big assumption there.
They MIGHT move characters to legion. Right now they have said the skill trees are incompatible. |

A pc capable of running a web browser is not hard to find.
A pc to run decent games costs a bit more.
Heck I still have a lonevo x21 laptop that was built in 2001 it can post to these forums just fine. However it can't run any remotely modern games.
Come to think of it i actually have a pc with even less computing power. I have a intel atom micro itx build that i use at home as a jump box / FTP server and a few other function. Again it can totally run a web browser but games o hell no. |

I have a great gaming PC. I do not need nor want your lame attempts regarding console owners. Nor does any other, your methods are simplistic trolls.
I will not play Legion. We don't know their payment solution but we have specific and painful experience with the methods that CCP uses. They do not fix bugs, even when they are in the basis for their 'new' game. They promote one while doing nothing for the game that is the foundation for it. Bugs are not fixed because at least half the development team is doing Legion. Better to work on the new game versus the dead one.
I doubt if it will be F2P, it might well take PLEX to use as that is CCP's subscription solution. I tried EVE a few times and it was possibly one of the worst, most boring games I have even seen. There have been worse but very, very few. It never really improved beyond a space ship interface to a point and click spreadsheet of a game. It is perfect for nerds, sucks for gamers.
I will never allow any CCP product to run on another gaming system of mine. Much less a PC.
CCP taught me how they treat their customers and I will never forget it.
Nobody at CCP cares because we ain't Legionnaires.

I'm on a PC, it isn't up to specs to run Star Citizen, the only PC game I have interest in. Eve: Legion will suck because CCP Shanghai sucks at building games.

Quit looking at ****/pirating stuff off pirate bay, and you wont have to worry about viruses.
Cheating wont be an issue in Legion, noone is gonna risk cheating on a character cause they will lose everything.
With consoles, you end up paying more. 400$ system that youre locked into, pay 50$ a year to access something you already pay your ISP for, and then each game is 60$ a pop, most of which goes to support gamegestapo. It is true, consoles do get some exclusives, but none of them are worth playing in toned down graphics that look awful, and still only at 30fps.

My friend brought a brand new PC a dell 1 week later she was completely locked out of her computer and a guy had called her cellphone and told her to pay up 500 dollars and he would give her control of her pc back. She threw her computer in the trash. Its not **** its not pirate bay its just PCs are vulnerable. FB can get you screwed Yahoo too pretty much anything that holds your sensitive information is up for grabs.
Back to gaming though while $60 is pricey and I would have more games if games were cheaper I've become very comfortable with buying a few games a year. For instance if i still had my rig id be playing Battlefield and some F2P mmorpgs and that's it. The games that I like are not on PC I'd still want my console it got to a point were my PC was just taking up space so I sold it to some old guy in jersey so he could use it to play EVE ONLINE true story.
Side note find me a decent Anti virus because Comcast gave me Nortan thats crap Windows Defender is garbage and AVG doesn't do squat. I just trashed my Laptop because I got sick of it reformatted my HD and put it in my ps3. |

CCP said they were laser focused on the PS3.
THAT OBVIOUSLY CHANGED - so I understand peoples confusion and sadness.
Why would going to the PS4 be any better than the PC? As a PS3 owner it would require you spending extra cash on a new computing device of some sort?
So really it just comes down to console people being console people. Happy to buy a PS4 but for what ever reason not happy to purchase a PC (or MAC if that is your thing).
That's FINE! I know some console people just want to chill, dont take games too seriously..blah blah many other reasons.. etc...
So I dont understand the moaning about Legion coming to PC. They never mentioned it going to the PS4 either.
Edit -
Actually, I just read that post above me and I think I understand. People are just to ******* stupid these days.... they want their hand held. |

Right people are stupid, because people who are stupid hack pc games, because the devs who are people weren't smarter than the stupid people who hacked their game. Its all clear now obviously avoiding the hassle of hackers and cheaters means you're stupid and need your hand held. I must be an alien because I decided to do the smart thing which is whatever satisfies me. |

"Horrible with public relations" and not caring about a segment of the playerbase they initially supported and are now dumping and that's where some of the moaning is. I have a gaming rig and I won't play EvE: Legion for these reasons:
- your console players are a different species of players than your pc players and console players tend to offer the more competition playing against in Dust
- it's not that it's on a PC that matters, it's how they handle a situation and what I can expect from them
- like the above point, if they couldn't get the console version working and polished, does starting from the drawing board make it a smart decision since most developers learn from their mistakes and not from a mistake atop a mistake on top of another
- it's not about content and items it's about updates, fixes and mechanics and they can't seem to deliver that even in Dust so what hopes do I have in Legion; did they have a magic wand to make this stuff work because there aren't many games they could reference for input only Dust and that's not really a great source of inspiration
- *IF* they transplant Dust to Legion then you somehow ignore how to contain a protostomping game that will, in turn limit new players staying with the game on top of the playerbase who will forever leave the game
- if you think about the above point of taking your playerbase, dividing it and then finding a way to limit its growth ensuring you won't recover your playerbase from one month ago for sometime, then I'm also worried about the "brains" running this operation now
For some players, like myself, it's not about console versus PC, players versus CCP or whatever. It's really a point of validation where if we're asked do we think CCP is hitting and making the right moves the answer is "no" and I'd even add that if you think that they have the whole WoD hanging over them and be more careful and strict about blundering in general then I was utterly surprised by how badly they handled Legion and that's where we now stand: can CCP handle this? If they can't even handle something as simple not pissing on a good portion of players on the console for the sake of having something shiny to show at fanfest then we have a really really big problem with CCP.
Gaming rig or console, your stuck with a development team out to try ideas on an uintested game and unwilling to see if they are even feasible in the first place because they are brimming with enough egotistic confidence that they always know better... |

Because there's a "setup" to begin with. You buy a console, you plug in the wires, and you're ready to go. You don't have to worry if you got the right graphics card, or the right kind of processor, installed the right software, etc etc.
All this is a ballache that needn't have existed in the first place.

This says everything we need to know about console players right here. Forget them. Let's move on. EVE players as well as my own assumptions were right about the can of worms CCP was opening up.
P.S. Who doesn't own a decent computer in this day and age? What, are these people living in 1985? The age of Atari is dead bro. Only 10 year olds would be restricted to consoles.

Why do I need a computer? Yea, right now I'm using my work one, but, I use a f*cking tablet for literally everything else... What year is it, 2002, we have to have a computer to do anything now???
I 'support' EVE:Legion. Since the PS4 is just a dream, make it easy to sell our characters and our Beta access...

Even if you could build the exact same PC as a PS4, the way it is used is VERY different. It's not for the same type of people.
Console is what it is : a rather pretty box (ps4 at least), in your living room with a controller right by it, that you just poke and start playing with, not moving an inch from your couch. You dont have to wonder about specs, drivers, nor teamspeak or other chat. Nor do you ever have to wonder if the guy facing you is cheating\scripting\having a better machine and thus having an advantage etc...
It is just NOT the same thing. I played on my PC when i was 15 to 22 and followed the gear market etc... Now ? i dont have a room where i can have a desk with a computer, nor do i have the time or envy to bug myself with PC gaming. My PC is a laptop, it plays movies, surf the internet and downloads prons. that's it.
So as much as you're trying to help, you're just pissing off people because of all of the above.

Using Legion as a sole reason to buy a gaming PC is the first thing wrong with this thread.
We've all been exposed to CCP's **** game development and shady business practices. Who would invest $500 off the top just to be let down again? Is it worth playing for 10 years while CCP stumbles through game design?

Thanks for the vid. I haven't been a PC gamer since my youth. I've been primarily console based. Now with the news (and also the fact I wanted to get into building my own PCs), I'm definitely looking to get back into PC games.
Not only for Legion but just for all the games that are out plus their mods. Thanks again!

Anything with internet is vulnerable. The PSN was hacked you know. People's info are vulnerable on that too. And I'm pretty sure your friend acted prematurely. With anything, people charge you high for the labor. And especially for a girl and a PC. I would have shopped around you instead of dramatically throwing my week old PC away. That's just stupid.
All she had to do was have a backup. Did she have one? I'm building a PC and when I get everything installed, I'm immediately doing a back up. Problems with my PC? Reverting back to backup. Virus? Reverting back to backup.
PC requires a bit more care, that's why consoles are so popular. But it isn't like its not doable. You just need to be smart about what you download, where you download from, having the proper anti viral systems in place (F McAfee though), and have a back up ready for any problems.
Too often people just get a PC and do whatever with it, then become shocked when its bogged down with viruses and it's acting funny. You have to take care of your PC.

Its been years since I had my last problem with viruses. I have been pretty much using the built in Windows Defender and AdAware.
From time to time I get a free, more powerfull virus scan and run it, it finds nothing, then uninstall because most anti-viruses are damn intrusive.
Just stay out of **** and other illegal activities sites. Use your freedom with responsability. Be somewhat smart (like, no one you dont know will send you nude pictures with .exe extensions). If you cant be that smart, well, dont buy a PC. |

The games that I like are not on PC I'd still want my console it got to a point were my PC was just taking up space so I sold it to some old guy in jersey so he could use it to play EVE ONLINE true story. Side note find me a decent Anti virus because Comcast gave me Nortan thats crap Windows Defender is garbage and AVG doesn't do squat. I just trashed my Laptop because I got sick of it reformatted my HD and put it in my ps3. Anything with internet is vulnerable. The PSN was hacked you know. People's info are vulnerable on that too. And I'm pretty sure your friend acted prematurely. With anything, people charge you high for the labor. And especially for a girl and a PC. I would have shopped around you instead of dramatically throwing my week old PC away. That's just stupid. All she had to do was have a backup. Did she have one? I'm building a PC and when I get everything installed, I'm immediately doing a back up. Problems with my PC? Reverting back to backup. Virus? Reverting back to backup. PC requires a bit more care, that's why consoles are so popular. But it isn't like its not doable. You just need to be smart about what you download, where you download from, having the proper anti viral systems in place (F McAfee though), and have a back up ready for any problems. Too often people just get a PC and do whatever with it, then become shocked when its bogged down with viruses and it's acting funny. You have to take care of your PC.
are you really saying that its her own fault that her pc got hacked and that she shouldv bent over to the demands of that bastard who hacked her?
you sick son of a *****. No amount of money can buy someone privacy. she did the right thing. i would rather completely destroy a computer if some **** head tried to do that to me.

I agree and disagree.
While its true that playing on console is different (at least without effort) from it on PC, we cannot say ALL console players know how to or are sufficiently informed to form an opinion.
In that light, its good to have some pointers about how it looks like on the other side of the fence.
Theres all people around the spectrum, people that are in love for consoles , in love of PC's, people who love both, perhaps not equally, people who only know one and are oblivious to the other, sometimes out of prejudice and ignorance.
So, idk, information is allways good, imo.

^^^^ Cazaderon is always right.
PSA: Just please, everyone stop acting like:
1) The move to PC is the only issue people have with CCP
2) We don't want to move to PC because we are poor or stupid or just don't understand how sooper amazing PC gaming is.
I have all the money and technical knowhow necessary to do whatever the f*ck I want with a PC. Annnd.. I don't want to. For all the reasons outlined in this thread and others. This is an informed decision I have made after much thought. Your lame attempts to shame me into doing so are a waste of both our time (definitely mine, maybe your time is worthless, mine certainly is not)
I turn on my console, drop my ass on the couch, feet on the coffee table next to my beer, and play games on a big-ass HDTV with 6.1 surround sound, as the good Lord damn well intended it!
I also don't have to worry about:
- Hardware inequality. We are all on a level playing field.
- Upgrading my hardware every 1-2 years
- Wondering if the guy just beat me because he's good or because of hax
So, stop. Just stop.
Quitting cold turkey was impossible. The forum patch is helping me kick the habit!
See you in Destiny

Hackers just dont simply hack inside computers, you know?
Its not like the movies.
IMO, I am pretty sure it was her fault. She probably ended up on some suspicious site or clicked o a suspect link or email attachment.
Its not like shes guily, but shes unknowingly responsible.
Next time, at least ask her to throw her PC on my trash ;)

$566.16 USD for a gaming PC is a great build and perfectly shows how PC gaming is easily attainable. My Acer laptop was about $400 CAN when I picked it up a couple of years ago, and it still runs EVE. Graphically there will be options to tweak for the upcoming Legion, and players need to remember that.
Out of my own ignorance, how do the console only mercs here access the forum if not by some simple PC? Is everyone on a tablet? o_O the pricing is a lie though.
windows = $100
blurray & playback software = $100
Hd 7870 (2GB) i= $170
he low-balled the price by ~$200, and that PC will take ~2-3 times more electricity. Oh and more headaches, and most people can't build PC (or change their oil).
PC gamers just can't stop lying.

So, stop. Just stop.
- you can plug the PC to a big ass TV.
- imo thats a non issue.
- if you believe in that, you are wrong.
- I wondered the same thing playing CoD Ghosts on the PS3..... oh well.
But yeah, platform is a matter of what one suits better your lifestyle. |

PC =/= Console.
Im a Console guy, and even though I can easily get a Gaming PC... im a Console guy. I dont like gaming on PC, and that wont change. The same as some PC guys wont get a Console.
Thats my main fundamental problem, aside from all the other stuff about laser focused and la-de-da.
I will be the only player to Prototype every single god damn weapon before Dust dies. I swear to it.

OP you seem like a nice girl? or guy so ima just say this all nice and easy for you.
Firstly i want to thank you for trying to help us console gamers out by posting this but it isn't going to do justice around here as there are reasons why many of us prefer console over pc despite the hardware difference. For some it could be because they have been gaming on consoles since they were little kids up until now and they do not feel like moving to a whole differnt platform to game. For others it could be because console gaming provides comfort and it's family orientated, for example when i still lived with my parents and my brother and sisters we would use the xbox's kinect (which i normally didnt like because i was a gears of war and cod player) but it was fun playing this one game with my family where two people are on this little raft on a river and you have to dodge, jump, and run sometimes. Everyone had a good time laughing and playing around while our legs and muscles burned like ****. That kind of family bonding can not be achieved by gaming on PC in my opinion.
