What would the game be like now? Do you think Legion would still be a thing.
If the current iteration of the game was released as Uprising 1.0, would Dust still have a future on the PS3 or would the transition to PC still happen? |

Community would be ignoring the positives and complaining about the lack of Min/Amarr vehicles and PvE as well as all the squad protostomping.
Would possibly have a slightly larger player base but still would have missed the opportunity to be a serious draw card at launch of PS4

Does matchmaking still suck? Yes
Is the NPE still terrible? Yes
I personally feel that Legion was the thing that kickstarted this process of fixing everything.

Yes, there would still be problems because the only reason CCP is moving back to the PC is ease and speed of development. Not having a public test server, going through the PSN restrictions and having to give in to the Unreal 3 engine and above all CCP's hubris and not testing all this beforehand killed this project.
We would have had so much more by now if CCP could have developed the way they were used to.

And yet Legion will used the same engine dust does.

I honestly think if Dust was released in May 2013 like it is now it would have done really well (with some actual marketing too)
The problem is they rushed their product to the market, it wasn't ready, got bad reviews and it put people off
Now we're stuck in the situation where it's a solid shooter, but new players can't join because there's such a barrier to entry. It's not just fighting 30m+ SP players straight after leaving the academy, most vets could start a new player and do pretty well because they know the maps, they know the fittings and they know the tactics. New players never get a chance to learn them.
And since everyone's talking about Fanfest, the fact that they rushed out Dust last year is why it was such a kick in the balls, people knew the game wasn't in the best condition but they were sold the idea of stay with us and we will build something great |

It would still have failed. CCP was committed to this game, but they wanted to do things their way and not listen to the player base. There are still glitches from old builds still floating around, and if we went back in time gave them this build and waited until today they would still be there
