From PC's when in Not Guilty starting off with Eon before we had any Land.. In the big Blitz for PC Land grab From CHRONOS and Eon's Bid to power And all the PC's and ringing fun at that time. To Having to Reform to Pure innocence and our bid to hold as much land as corporations 3x the size.
To Then Joining Ancient Exiles When we couldn't beat Team players, Or grab any Land without being perma attacked.. To the growing pains for a few weeks of us ironing out the kinks in tactics, strategy and player placements to get consistent victories.
To The nearly 3 month long Urgent Fury Tournament.. And often matches of 6 vs 12 because of locked rosters and prolonged tournament length ,and then pulling out victory..
To A.E's Bid for a land grab after Beating Team Players in The NA Tournament and getting given Hellstorms old home planet back as a prize from Cubs. Seeing how the Urgent Fury Tournament Prizes and CCP Support of them was... Not great? Cubs stepped up and made it a true grand prize.
After this DUST's development stagnated until we got the New EP. The new Executive Producer did one Hurrah and one patch for DUST then said F* It.
I Wish they would of done a DUST player market for fanfest before announcing Legion. We would of been a great testing bed for the concept and it would of completed a big chunk of DUST as it's last big feature.
Side Note*. DUST started Development back in 2008, they showed the concepts they built in house at fanfest in 2009, Alpha's got released in 2012. It Took them well over 4 years of development to get DUST half built. Legion will Probably take over 2 years of development and I hope it get's even longer.
It would be a GIANT Missed opportunity by CCP for a revenue stream if they where simply to turn off the lights before Legion is ready for Beta. Playstation 3's although they are becoming the Iphone 3 in Western Countries, they are just becoming affordable in places like Brazil, Chile, India even Sweden with abnormally high console prices. These markets will enter the PS3 market for it's systems features and already established quality game list for the next 1-2 years its projected.
DUST could reduce operational costs and continue to attract new customers who will make a 5-10 dollar purchase and continue to provide a revenue stream for CCP deep into Legions Development cycle.
