Now I know bungie is spending tons of money on this game but I feel like if CCP would have just put some more money and thought into the actual gameplay and graphics......they would've made the game that every fps player wants.....

Will legion do this? Maybe....but the thing is its on PC....so IDK

Thoughts?

CCP was on the fast track to running out of money thanks to this game. They spent too much of what they had in a poor investment. Its just a sad case of them overestimating what they could do on the PS3. I mean, don't get me wrong, the PS3 was a powerful console for its time, but for what CCP wants to do with Dust, its just not enough. Between Dust and the other botched game CCP was working on, its no wonder they seemed to have run out of money. That's why they had to fire a lot of people not long ago. That's why they've halted development for the other game they had, and they've severely cut development on Dust.

Legion being on PC is a GREAT THING. I mean, don't get me wrong, I would have loved them to put it on the PS4 instead for hardware balancing reasons. But being on PC will allow them to develop the game at a much greater rate then before. Not to mention I believe there is more money to be had on the PC. At least initially anyway.

Just because Destiny is getting a record amount of money pumped into it does not mean the game is going to be that great. GTA V had 100's of millions of dollars put into it, but the game still had a ton of flaws, and theres still a lot of lack luster things about it. So to think that money is the only thing they did wrong, is just ludicrous. The main flaw with their development wasn't because they lacked the funding. It was because they lacked the hardware needed to run the game they wanted to make. That's why Legion is taking priority over Dust now. There is no limit with PC's.

And at the end of the day. Everything CCP does is for the sake of making more money for their company. Legion will be and HAS TO BE successful for them. Its the best option as far as innovation goes in regards to the EVE universe. EVE online is a great game, but its becoming clear now that CCP is running out innovative new content they can add to the game. Yes they can balance things, add new ships/missions ect.... but theres only so much they can do to add to the space side of its universe.

Legion opens up a whole new playground for them to innovate with. To give their player base the option to sift through twice as much content then they have at hand currently.

I think most people forget that the main point of why CCP started making Dust 514 on PS3 was to gain access to a new fan base. By going back to the PC with Legion, they will be effectively cannibalizing their EVE Online base, while 'possibly' gaining a small influx of new players. CCP , if your reading this, you might want to reconsider this whole move back to Personal Computers - the only real argument about switching platforms in my opinion is that the PS4 has come out - which should mean logically, the platform move should be to the PS4 with PS3 compatibility. TL: DR - Going to the Personal computing crowd is going to eventually hurt your Eve Online base.
