So basically this is going to be the same redundant thread that will populate members the likes Mary Lilac. ResistanceGTA. Alabastor...basically the usual suspects.

Why?

Because it wasn't the poor leadership, horrific code, inability to have a transparent communication with the community, or terrible gear/item balancing that caused DUST 514 to fail.

It was obviously a failure because it was on a console with these filthy "console peasants" mucking it up.

Loved the edit.

That's it........let the smugness flow through you.

You do realize that I'm being sarcastic right?

Only a misguided fool would think that their gaming preference makes them superior to another. The same could be said about personal preferences in general.

Not to mention, everyone on these forums is a "console peasant" (apologies for the derogative), otherwise you wouldn't be able to post here in the first place.

In fact in another thread I was farming the PC haters tears while you simultaneously farmed console haters tears lol.

And I'd really love if this thread didn't end up like the others. I'd just love if anybody could give me a good reason. For me, it's a nonsense . Even more so, considering we started playing this game on a ps3.

Also, edited the OP.

IGÇÖm getting personally very excited for the PlayStation 4. For all the softballs Microsoft is throwing [Sony's] way, theyGÇÖre knocking them out of the park. ItGÇÖs kind of amazing. The whole thing with the 8GB of GDDR5 memory is you can make pretty amazing games with that memory architecture. I think itGÇÖs going to be important in the future, rather than the CPU and the GPU. It gives you an easy path just to update the graphics just through increasing the texture resolution. I think thatGÇÖs hugely exciting.

When you read these kind of things then...

Legion is just a prototype on PC, it may well release on PS4 when its actually out. Valkyrie started off as just a PC prototype, but when the project got really serious, it got announced for PS4.

Ok, I understand that, but...why? From what I understand of Economics, and, believe me if I tell you that I do understand Economics, it's a faulty move.

- Tons of other well established MMOFPS on PC
- Hundreds of MMOs
- Less total audience

- Most important, never mix up someone who can actually cheat / have better input devices with someone who can't in a competitive game.

I do endorse Eve Legion Project, it looks cool and, besides, it's the game that should have been on console, but let's just move on and try to stay on topic.

They are essentially tripping over a dollar to pick up a penny..

I do agree on that, but I don't think they don't have enough money. More than 500.000 subscribers are not a joke after all.

Oh I think they have plenty as well.

Also, where do you think the trainwreck of a development team that developed Incarna went to after that fiasco? IF you guessed Dust I bet you are right.

I believe the whole PC encompasses their vision being better realized on a platform that they started off with in the first place.

I rather CCP be on grounds that are familiar instead of one that is unfamiliar. I want to see the idea of mercenaries on ground that are involved in the New Eden universe materialize into something greater than it is now. If that means it going to PC so that can come into fruition, so be it.

I still can't understand why CCP decided to move the game on PC exclusive instead of improving, deleting and remaking or anything else on console. Someone please enlighten me.

- On a first thought, the only reason that came up to my mind was the inability to code for Playstation 3, which is a totally avoidable problem considering PS4 is just as dev-friendly as a PC. (even more, actually)

- Then I thought about Sony QA. But, again, this is a non-problem, considering it would take no more than 7 days. Also, Warframe is a great example of how well MMOs patching works for PS4.

- Sales says that Sony is leading the new-gen market with more that 7 mlns PS4 already sold, increasing at a constant rate. (http://www.vgchartz.com)

- A console in general gives you a more competitive gameplay: everyone's on the same system, with the same input. Impossible to use aimbot / hack in online games.

- It cost less. You can actually build a performing PC for a few more, but if you want to exactly replicate a PS4 hardware you'd spend much more.

So, why?

1. They can more easily control what goes into the game and pace of updates if the game is on PC.

2. They can charge subscription fees on PC.

Playerbase.

PC is friendlier to Eve players, who are their demographic here, and it being a freetoplay...
Well, PC is home of the F2P, in the end.

And, of course, Sony was cutting a lot of red tape in the first place for CCP; I wouldn't be surprised if some of that red tape was part of the reasons for DUST's subpar nature...

I think that should answer you? In the end, though, this is all speculation in my part.
