Does this really surprise you coming from CCP? The "Greed is Good" and all of the rest of the shenanigans that have come from them.
The thing is I can somewhat get down with the "F**k Consoles" mantra but I'm just a player. Devs are meant to be more professional that this.
The thing I dont get is - why one earth did you not make DUST for PC in the first place like most people argued for!?
My goodness you made your own bed CCP.....

I would respect him more if he stuck by his word and didn't delete it like a pu$$y......(One can only assume the higher ups forced him to)

1. First and foremost, CCP FoxFour is like one of the best devs at CCP, and one of the top devs we ever had here on DUST. He deserves praise, affection, and cookies. People trying to call him out or get him in trouble should be lined up and shot. /personalopinion
2. CCP FoxFour works on EVE now., when he worked on DUST, he worked heavily on the link to EVE. He also has no bearing on Legion development or whether or not it ever makes it to PS4, or any decisions regarding DUST 514, as he is a software engineer, not an executive, producer, or other high-ranking leadership.
3. Even though CCP FoxFour no longer works on DUST, he's snuck in a few features for DUST players into his work on the API anyways. That speaks to his care and concern for the DUST community, even though he's working on another thing now. You should have stayed away. Out of respect for you, I will not personally troll you. I will let the forum nonfactors with less than 20k likes do it.
Well I for one will....

He deserves praise and attention when he has basically just said f-you to the entire DUST player base? The DUST player base is entirely on a console, also every penny spent on DUST from the point of view of the players are from console users.
People should be "shot" for calling him out on something that he himself typed? (regardless whether we personally agree or not it IS unprofessional of him)
"He worked heavily on the link to EVE" - What link to EVE?
"Speaks to his care and concern for the DUST community" - I find that very hard to believe considering he just said f**k that to the very thing he is supposed to support.
Regardless of that Rattati and others are trying to make amends with the DUST console community, trying to make the game better every hotfix and then this comes along!
I'm sorry but it sounds like you just have a high personal opinion of him. The fact is it was typed and then deleted. That says everything we need to know.

Soraya Xel wrote:CommanderBolt, CCP FoxFour did not say "f- you" to the DUST playerbase. He indicated he did not like consoles. Personally. I do not like consoles either (I am a PC and Nintendo guy, I have no love for the PlayStation 3), though I will say I am massively committed to supporting console DUST players and the community that they've built.
I've actually never spoken with him personally, but people have their target crosshairs way off if they thing CCP FoxFour has done anything but his absolute best for DUST.
I'm guessing he deleted it because he realized something just like this thread would happen.
After rethinking about this, I and others have probably over reacted a little bit. So I apologise for that.
I also truly appreciate the calm mannered response from you Soraya. I'm surprised. I guess I really do not know you as well as I like to think I do. (Going off of forum posts alone of course)
Let me be clear, I'm more mad just generally at CCP for the whole turn of events.
There were many of us that played EVE that really urged CCP to reconsider making DUST for the PS3 and instead to opt to make it as a PC game. A lot of us saw these kinds of problems arising. We later always found the notion of a 5-10 year plan for DUST as a niave one at best going off of the lifespan of average console games. Now we hear those same devs saying "**** consoles" its just like - that's what we were saying from day one!
I also feel kind of bad for some of the other DEVS.
I'm not a fan of consoles at all myself but there are a handful of games that made me get the PS3. (Metal Gear Solid games and DUST primarily for me)

It's a criminal act, of course, but it can be hard to track down who called it in. Wow, mind is double blown lol. If you want to know more, here's a good video on it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ziLjOPCQwg For target practice, that was a complete and utter gross display of gun ho, seriously. That couldn't have been anymore improper and a blatant way to just p1ss money away for free target practice. The amount of crap they were packing was totally not realistic unless they plan on house sieges lasting about 3 days lol. That is also completely fked up. So how does s.w.a.t actually work because i see much more professional manner from the people i go airsoft with at my local site. Those people all seemed like newbs on their first day and seemed to be having minor complications with the most basic sht, the guy who wasn't holding his gun correctly for example, looked like a bucnh of armed clowns who just want to shoot stuff.
That's the common perception the world has of America, right?

Soldner shakes his head and drinks at the amount of pants on head retards in this thread.
*harmless as a Canadian troll working for a nordic indie gaming company can be. Srsly guys sox doesnt have an actual mean anything in his body. its a talent GJR has, everynow and then he comes out with a blinder post and crits everyone and leaves everyone else going where the **** did that come from while he runs around in background screaming TACOS...TACOS FOR EVERYONE Quite possibly the most accurate post in this thread.
To be fair he had me at the "crits everyone" part. =)
