Kind of just by looking at the gameplay they showed at fanfest it looks like they'll continue with what they had from Dust which was the combat taking place in the planets surface. It's best for then to do continue with that then get us fighting on space stations and eventually ships like Titans.

Both sounds good, and Like I said it's best if CCP STARTS with what they had with Dust which was fighting in the planet surface and eventually get us inside EVE player + npc ships, and stations.
Boarding ships and stations is one if the best things we've been looking forward to, even back in closed beta here on the forums people were talking about it. There was even some concept art that people made showing a fight in the control room if a titan. Maybe it was only one picture that was made.... but anyways ya people have been looking forward to such things for along time.
Edit: forgot to mention firing back at EVE ships with the sky fire battery.

Check it from 16:56 to 22:38
The planet looks great in detail and it's been 5 months since then so no doubt it's gotten plenty better so I don't think that you'll have to wait long after Legion gets released till we get to fight in space.

No I don't think that it would be less work, but they would have to start from scratch to make the maps that would be great for fighting in stations and ships. We don't even know how many people that they have working on Legion and we don't even know about if they are making completely new maps or just heavily modifying the ones from dust. Especially with the news about the 1.9 update for Dust514.
I don't care how many times they say that Legion isn't even a real game yet. They said they were laser focused in the ps3 and look what they announced at fanfest. It's best just to not believe what their official statement about their products or soon to be products are.

We launch from an apartment that we can't leave except to join a battle which to me is limited in terms of social design in game. Same thing with Valkyrie. So in essence is it a lobby shooter like Dust? Are we going to experience the same maps over and over again? Most likely.
Personally for me, I would prefer the ability to conquer every planet in Eve and take control of stations in Null, board ships and fight for control of trade lanes. Or at least fight for control of low sec. The problem is I don't think this will happen due to the nature of designing height maps, art assets, and balance of land environments and other objects. It takes a lot of time to do it properly. As a result I think we will get a repetitive map sequence like most shooters which I can understand for this type of project. I also think that CCP Execs are way off base with expecting to reel in millions when in truth Eve games are a niche which I am proud of. Look how dedicated you all are to Dust. As a Eve pilot I respect that. But I need a bone from CCP on how this project is going. I do love Dust but I want to love PL on my PC.
Most here will agree with you and that's why most of us got into Dust 514, maybe for awhile it'll be repetitive maps with modifications to it and eventually we'll get maps for fighting inside ships and stations which may also be repetitive also. But at one point I think that they may be able to make so many more maps if Legion succeeds, Valkyrie succeeds and EVE (according to EVE vets on a certain podcast) gets to become a big game again.
I'd hope at first though that while the maps are repetitive for a time that we would be able to go outside of our quarters in Legion and go around in the station with other players. And even be able to transfer to other stations at a cost and the price depending on how you get there. Then eventually maybe be able to go down on the planets surface not for fighting but to make our own bases and other things in territory that your alliance and/or corp owns.
