We are coming up on 3 months (May 2) since the announcement of DUST's death and Legion and CCP has still not announced that this "project" is even green lit. Does this resonant with anyone else?
There have been no updates, promotion, buzz, chatter, even this Legion GD forum is slowing down because there is nothing to talk about.
With CCP's track record is it a stretch to extrapolate that Legion is a pipe dream? Why so tight lipped?
Wouldn't a company wanting to promote an upcoming product have a Board meeting, determine the viability of Legion, and release the green light so social media can begin talking it up? Release an artist's rendition, screen shot, interview with a dev, something?
Why the delay?
I am an optimist, but I have doubts based on the facts that make me wonder that Legion will ever come to be.

Also, as for news, read the stickies where there are things like talk of development and ideas - nothing is set in stone so why write a blog - as well as screenshots.
In other words, you are way too impatient and don't understand software development cycle.
I worked for a software company in Dallas for many years. Have you?

I am an optimist, but I have doubts based on the facts that make me wonder that Legion will ever come to be. It took 2 years for dust to become a actual thing, and you expect Legion to do it in 3 months? lol
Roger...sigh...
I sometimes wonder why I bother.
Reread my original post if you need to so that you may understand better. The words can be difficult. Sound them out if need be.
My point is that we haven't heard anything up to this point.
No one expects Legion to have been completed by now.
Oh, and Roger, grown men don't say "lol". Hope that helps you out down the road.

Plus Legion has been in the works since EVE Vegas last year.
Yes, it has just been concerning, if that is the right word, that no information of any kind that I know of has been released.
The silence is deafening.
You would think they would throw out a crumb just to keep interest up.
But nothing.
And no one seems too concerned even with CCP's history.

The Salvage thread is of particular interest since its subject seems to change every so often ranging from loot to rogue drones to sky spawning and other things. We at least know they're taking in our feedback. Beyond that we don't know what they've done. However, the recent article posted by PCGamer seems to indicate that CCP might be close to a green lit project than we might think, but don't quote me on that.
I have read that article and sincerely hope things are moving forward.
But simply taking feedback is a passive posture. It is because of just such ambiguity that I have my doubts.

It was a software company that designed real time trend recognition software for trading the Securities, FOREX, Options, and Commodity Financial markets.
