Now IF IF Legions development gets past all the IFS and BS that CCP can put in the way and gets released on the PC should it eventually come to the ps4?
I switched to PC gaming not too long ago and I'm enjoying it, especially with all these sales on Steam. I spent plenty of time playing Dust 514 before fanfest this year. I don't play Dust much anymore and I sold all my games that I had for the ps3, only reason I keep my ps3 is for Dust 514. I have no problem with consoles but we know that eventually PC gaming and streaming devices are the future.
Legion looked great on the PC at Fanfest, but how far can they get with the ps4 hardware?

No it should not, and here is why; The PS4 in my opinion is not even powerful enough to do what CCP has in mind. I'm judging this based on the concept of what Dust 514 was supposed to be. Also, don't forget that Legion when it happens, its not going to be a one time release, we're talking a game that will be around for years to come, and the PS4 will simply get old, and will not be able to handle constant updates.
You know if Dust/Legion were to be the kinda game that is once released this is it, or if it was not set INSIDE of the Eve universe. I would say fine, just port it to the PS4 and let more people enjoy it. But in this case, its not, and moving over to console will just ruin the experience and the possibilities. |

Btw, I'm no hater of consoles, I've a PS4 myself, and I enjoy playing with friends on it.
Agreed, I can't speak to the graphic power and that is not as much of an issue to me personally but add to all of that the limitations Dust has had to deal with because of the PSN.

Ahh yes the PSN issues I've only heard bits of that problem like CCP having to get Sony permission to release patches by having Sony go over it which takes time and they have to pay Sony to get a patch out. I'm not sure anyways if that's true so if u could explain what the problems with the PSN are?

It would be wise to.
Currently ps4 users are starved for good games. For example:after playing Blacklight retribution on the ps4,i kept coming back to Dust 514 on the ps3. It feels more full,and not just a hollow shell like retribution did.
Currently ps4 has several F2P titles: -DCUO (super heros) -War thunder (realistic war vehicles) -Blacklight retribution (generic TDM game) -War frame (an ugly team game)
And that's it... Most people playing those games are only doing so because they have no other options.
If Dust were to transfer to ps4 while it's still relatively new,it would snatch many of those players away from their competition. Probably for keeps.
And could gain a potentially ravenous following via the built in streaming available through ps4. Dust would generate a satisfaction through difficulty that those other games simply couldn't compete with.

While that sounds like a good idea for Dust 514 this is about Legion not Dust 514.

I can not imagine that the UE3 engine is that hard to run on the PS4, even if they have some fancy doodads in place....the only problem is Sony's approval process is still apart of the Ps4.

Lol wut? CCP has a contractual agreement with the name Dust 514 attached. Project legion is a name that has no such obligation,it's a legal work around.
legion is Dust and Dust is legion,using semantics won't change the obvious.

Personally, I feel it should be on the PC for one main reason and that is longevity. I do love Dust 514. If it came to the PC as Dust514 I would still play it.

True they are the same idea with different names ( MMO-FPS Sandbox in New Eden and interactive with EVE players) but they are not going to be the same games.
So when I say Dust 514 I'm talking about the lobby shooter that CCP has made on the ps3 that will stay as a lobby shooter and possibly port to the ps4.
When I'm talking about Legion I'm talking about a game that's going or is suppose to be everything that Dust 514 was supposed to be but on PC.... and possibly ps4 but I'm kind of thinking it would be best development wise to stick with the PC.

i wish people would realize its not remotely practical to even think about multiplatform releases so early into a project, its is likely that legion will be playable on a ps4 level machine.
(since a pc game has to be optimized for alot of differ set ups, a ps4 level machine will fit in that margin, so ditch the it wont work its not powerful enough argument because thats all bloix)
legion on pc if it reaches a playable state for the general populous, they will probably start looking to put it on ps4, but they have to have a reasonable amount of content before releasing it since even with sonys improved updated system its still slower to push an update to a ps4 version then it will be to the pc version.
you have to consider that any content in legion pc would take awhile to get to the ps4 witch would either mean they started slowing pc updates (bad idea) or have a second team porting the updates to ps4 in there own time. (people will complain) in other words it makes the most sense for them to simply wait till legion is well established and then look at porting it to another system.
So in short, buy a gaming pc and get cheep steam games to pass the time.
Do not contribute to malice what can be explained by ignorance.
being contradictory is not the same as being offensive.

See, AGAIN people missing the whole point...Legion, if it happens, its NOT your typical game, its a game designed for YEARS AND YEARS to come. A game that is SET INSIDE the EVE universe, where there is DIRECT connection between the TWO. They are running on the SAME server, in REAL-TIME. Things happening in Legion will directly affect the EVE universe, and vice verse.
How can you ask for it to come out on the PS4? And I'm glad you mentioned this whole update thing. How can they keep the two games running together? How can they upgrade the game in 5 years from now to over-haul the graphics for example. Or go for new tech with maybe a new engine?? How can they keep the people at that time who have become a part of that universe on the same page? How can they've battles going on with people playing on the PS4 and PC at the same time without issues?
This kinda game simply CAN NOT be multi-platform. When they came up with Dust, why didn't they just release it for the PC as-well?? Why did they make it exclusive to ONE platform?
Maybe they can release a watered down version of it for the PS4 with ZERO connection to EVE. So say what Dust 514 is right now with no planetary conquest stuff. But that's as far as it could go.
Legion / EVE are not like Planetside 2 for example where everything is instanced, and things can happen multiple times on different server with different people. We are talking one huge server carrying all the action of the two games. Everything there exists sort of like real life.

CCP didn't release Dust for PC because of their contract to Sony.
Running real time shouldn't be much of an issue since EVE and Dust already work on the same server. And there have already been battles where players from both platforms have participated at the same time.
Also, as already mentioned, when a game is built for PC it has to satisfy a variety of systems. The PS4 is practically a PC with hardware set in stone. That said, PC games are generally built to be able to run across PC's of multiple hardware specs.
Legion should do just fine on the PS4.

With only minimal differences,each platform having something uniqe the other didn't.
Just saying...
Maybe the console would have 100% fps action while the PC would have tactical negotiating.
Ps4 = pure FPS PC = FPS EVE hybrid,with an emphasis on industry to keep the Ps4 war machine going.

Well,the main problem with sticking to PC i that they'll be double dipping their chip. This F2P game could potentially draw players away from EVE,new or old.
CCP will then have 2 products that are in direct competition with each other. Effectively halving possible monitary gains. By it being on another platform it prevents this and attracts new players (that have never heard of EVE or CCP,such as myself)
PC eliteism could destroy CCP,saying only so many can have access. While putting it on consoles they can advertise for EVE,like Dust has,and get new subscribers,like Dust has given.
It might be inconvenient to the 'pc master race' but it seems to be the best way to make more money.

I don't wanna be rude, but there are some people on here who are just plain DUMB. @DeadlyAztec11....You really didn't read my post, did you?? I know that Dust and EVE are already on the same server, and battles have been done with players on the two sides. But DIFFERENT games....I'm talking if Legion is on both the PC anf PS4, how can you've a battle with players on the 2 platforms?????? Playing the same game that is...And lets say they accomplish that, how can people compete playing against others on PCs with 3 and 4 times more power?? How are updates going to be synced between the 2 platforms??...And more and more....
@Meee One....What is Black Light to even mention on here?????......Black Light is just a lame game with no persistant universe, NOTHING! So of course they can have it on more than one platform. I even mentioned Planetside, just for the sake of that kinda argument. But still, people are too DUMB....And as for having 2 versions of Legion like you said. Please, they're struggling to even get one out. Lol.
Come on people, before u post, just think. And do your research, try to understand what EVE is, and what the concept of Dust 514 was. And what CCP is planning to accomplish with Legion if it happens....Please.. |

Consider this... Console players know the console they are purchasing will be replaced outright in the future,yet they slap 400 + currency down for one each and every time. Plus 50-60 for games. +DLC And no modding means they can only buy what's offered.
While PC users must simply replace a single old part at a time,making them more cost effective. And modding means they have free options,see skyrim.
Console players are simply more willing to part with their monies.
Now,if you were a company going for profit. Which would you target? Money hose console players. Or thrifty PC players?
Obvious answer is obvious.

Well, I consider doing some more research. CCP is the Dev and publisher of their own games. Of course they look for profit, but thats not what they aim for mainly like other companies out there. They're ore about their game, and community..
And, consoles are by no means more costly than a PC. Dedicated PC gamers spend so much more money. My GPU by itself costs more than a PS4...
Again, I'm no hater of consoles, I have had them since I was a little kid to this day, and I keep up with them all the time. Its just I don't see Legion as a possible console project!

Of course it should. The entire original point of Dust was to expand the EVE universe to people who where either incapable of playing EVE, or where fascinated by it but not particularly interested in playing it. Making Legion on the PC is exactly antithetical to that original goal, and will end up failing miserably. |

I agree the point was to expand the EVE universe but that doesn't mean it has to be on a certain platform to expand it. It'll still expand even if it's only on the PC.

Currently ps4 users are starved for good games. For example:after playing Blacklight retribution on the ps4,i kept coming back to Dust 514 on the ps3. It feels more full,and not just a hollow shell like retribution did.
Currently ps4 has several F2P titles: -DCUO (super heros) -War thunder (realistic war vehicles) -Blacklight retribution (generic TDM game) -War frame (an ugly team game)
And that's it... Most people playing those games are only doing so because they have no other options.
If Dust were to transfer to ps4 while it's still relatively new,it would snatch many of those players away from their competition. Probably for keeps.
And could gain a potentially ravenous following via the built in streaming available through ps4. Dust would generate a satisfaction through difficulty that those other games simply couldn't compete with.
While that sounds like a good idea for Dust 514 this is about Legion not Dust 514. >legion is Dust 514 Lol wut? CCP has a contractual agreement with the name Dust 514 attached. Project legion is a name that has no such obligation,it's a legal work around. legion is Dust and Dust is legion,using semantics won't change the obvious. True they are the same idea with different names ( MMO-FPS Sandbox in New Eden and interactive with EVE players) but they are not going to be the same games. So when I say Dust 514 I'm talking about the lobby shooter that CCP has made on the ps3 that will stay as a lobby shooter and possibly port to the ps4. When I'm talking about Legion I'm talking about a game that's going or is suppose to be everything that Dust 514 was supposed to be but on PC.... and possibly ps4 but I'm kind of thinking it would be best development wise to stick with the PC. Well,the main problem with sticking to PC i that they'll be double dipping their chip. This F2P game could potentially draw players away from EVE,new or old. CCP will then have 2 products that are in direct competition with each other. Effectively halving possible monitary gains. By it being on another platform it prevents this and attracts new players (that have never heard of EVE or CCP,such as myself) PC eliteism could destroy CCP,saying only so many can have access. While putting it on consoles they can advertise for EVE,like Dust has,and get new subscribers,like Dust has given. It might be inconvenient to the 'pc master race' but it seems to be the best way to make more money.
EVE players aren't just gonna drop EVE for Legion, they'll be playing both EVE and Legion ( depending on the EVE player). EVE players have spent plenty of time and money on EVE, Legion will just be another way to play in New Eden that they may play at the same time.

They should port it to ps4 if they are able to, at the moment with no good fps games (destiny and cod aside) Dust 514 or "Legion" could potentially double CCP's revenue for profit by extending it to another platform, however, ever since they bulled their own "xbone" blunder when announcing legion, it would be hard to convince players on console to actually trust CCP still after what they did.
By alienating a certain platform or demographic, every company either gaming or non has always found themselves without funding and essentially hated to the point where they often apologize and eventually allow more people to use their products which in turn gives them more money.
if legion were to go on ps4, it would be one of the best decisions CCP has ever made, regardless of the "PC Elitists" dogma and mindset. It would potentially increase EVE Online's playerbase ten fold by introducing it to the console market seriously this time increasing CCP's revenue from EVE Online itself, after all, before Dust 514 ever came out, no console player had ever even heard of EVE Online.
If you want to keep EVE Online the way it is with less than half the playerbase of every individual COD game or even WoW then go ahead and keep it for PC only, just don't complain when nobody will play with you because its only for your kind.

Again it's not about PC elitists, it's about Legions development not being held back mostly by hardware limitations because there is a limit to how much one would spend to upgrade their PC. Sure it would be smart to get it out on the ps4 for more $$ but the game will survive on the PC. As long as people don't just see it as another f2p shooter on the PC. Dust should've been on the PC in the first place, Dust would've been so much further than it is now.

you do realize that its CCPs own fault for ignoring the coming close of the ps3 generation right?
but to say that the ps4 will limit legion is outright bs, its fairly close to being an mobile computer (the only difference is that you cant change parts without voiding the warranty). that mindset is also why gamers view you as "PC Elitists", if people truly cared about limitations on hardware and cost efficiency, then consoles would have ceased to exist 10 years ago when the pc market boomed, people hate when something it kept from them simply because they don't have the right thing to make it work PERFECTLY, millions of people spend thousands of dollars a month on consoles and console games, and your telling me that they are all concerned about hardware limitations? get a dose of reality and see that your PC world isn't the only world that exists.

Wtf are u talking about? I didn't say everyone was worrying about hardware limitations, I said people here that want Legion on PC only are mostly worried about hardware limitations for Legions development. People choose consoles for simplicity and that's fine cuz they just want to play a video game with their tv and controller that came with the console. I have no problem with console only people. Games on console are fine but when it comes to a game like Legion which is gonna be everything dust was supposed to be then it doesn't matter to me how much $$ CCP could make if they get held back by the ps4 and sony.

You mean the hardware limitations that are still in place due to having to be optimized for lower-midrange spec PCs that are equal to, slightly better, and/or slightly worse than PS4 spec-wise? Meanwhile the PS4 has less background processes and a smaller-footprint OS that would otherwise drag performance down? Let's not kid ourselves, there is no real hardware limitation on PS4 that isn't already a limitation on certain mid-range PC builds (some of which are worse than PS4), and those will be compensated for anyway. |

yes, months ago before legion was even announced i said ccp would start over on a new platform and fire shanghai.
i was right about starting over on a new platform, though i meant ps4 at the time and i still believe it should. shooters belong on consoles, eve belongs on pcs. keyboard and mouse sucks for shooters.

mwahahahaha dude your comment reminded me of this funny gif i saw a few days ago, shooters don't belong on a specific platform. Keyboard and mouse suck for you when you try to play shooters with them, fps/shooters are fine on PC.

Will we be able to have huge battles with huge and open maps, like 64 vs 64 or possibly more? Walk around in stations with EVE players? Be able to travel around on a planet outside of combat? I'm not sure what CCP is able to do when it comes to achieving that original vision they had with dust when working with the ps4 hardware but it's stuck with the hardware it's got and at some point they would be stuck because of the ps4 hardware while hardware for PC's keep on improving yearly or a little less than a year.

I get what you mean with retribution, but the gunplay and flow seems better than what I remember Dust offering, even though Retribution is a generic shooter. Wish Legion would have the same level of performance at least.
Ah, Warthunder is great, I play on PC and the cross platform is nice, ps4 players are competitive enough. |

I think there is room for both to co exist together to build community and a healthy competition. If Sony opened the door for an emulator (59.99 USD) for the PC to be sold at the price of a game that would run on Windows I think the cross platform solution might be resolved and become profitable for everyone, despite the fact that the PS4 is an X86 which is a PC. I was really surprised that Sony didn't choose a more high end video card for the PS4 but I am sure there is a reason for that from a design perspective.

Long term it would be beneficial for CCP to expand to another platform and group of people. Short term, it makes sense for them to stick with PC becuase they are better at that (PS3 is notoriously hard to program for) and can't take the chance of failing again.
But don't waste anyone's time with the argument about "hardware limitations". The lack of power is not what held this game back. Take Destiny. For all it's flaws it handles large numbers of simultaneous players from different regions, even while they are doing different PvE missions, crossing paths in the same maps/environments, and somehow manages to not lag and have working hit detection. Sorcery!
It was shoddy programming, pure and simple. If you want to blame the vagaries of the cell processor, that's fair, but it's not because the PS3 is "weak", and the argument also does not apply to the PS4 with it's more conventional architecture.
More importantly, if you put Dust on a top of the line gaming PC, that PC is not going to automatically balance the game. It won't prevent cloaked shotty scouts from being OP, nor will it introduce Amarr HAV's or Gallente heavy weapons. Only CCP can do that.

I don't believe that CCP can reach that vision they had with Dust 514 on the ps3, they might with the ps4 however it will get stuck at a certain point until the next console generation ( if there even is one) .
And obviously putting Dust on the PC isn't going to automatically solve every problem, CCP has to put the work in to balance the game and get it to where it would be right now if it was on PC only in the first place.

Ya ik everyone had the ps4 in mind, but PC development will go much faster and maybe from their perspective if they can get more progress done on the PC than they would if they were to develop for the ps4 they can get the game to where it should've been by now and get a ps4 port going with all the progress that's been made.

Wow, this thread, arguing over PC or PS4 for legion, is it officially in development? Or are you arguing over pure speculation based on "if" still.
What are the specs on system requirements for this game?
You probably don't know cause they DON"T EXIST!!!!!
Stop arguing over something that probably won't happen...

battlefield was able to put over 80 players in a single match almost daily on the ps3, its not a hardware limitation, its a game developer problem, if you have a high tech piece of equipment that can crack the code for the united states super computer and you give it to a bachelor at ITT tech, they would have a ******* clue on how to use it because they don't know **** about it, but if you give it to the united states government, then theyl turn it into the next super computer.
its not the console that's the problem, its the people that refuse to work with the console that's the problem.

@ voidecho. What are u talking about? On the ps3 there was only 32 players max in each match. On the ps4 64 players were able to be in a match.
Should Legion be on the ps4?

not what I heard, but regardless, do you really believe that its because of hardware and not developer incompetence?

MAG gets 256 players , Killzone gets 32 players , BF gets 24 players , Frontline fuel of war is 50 players on the map. On the ps4 BF4 is 64 players , planetside 2 has 2000 players on the map( if it comes out which it should later this year), Wild is big as Europe , and GTA 5 on ps4 is 32 players. Theres defiance, but I don't know how many max players there can be It depends what the devs want from the game .
Anyway don't think anyone here or even CCP entirely knows how exactly Legion is supposed to be played. Basically, CCP said they want Dust to be a "sandbox" and be integrated to eve , but how exactly is it suppose play and designed out ? CCP talk a lot about ideas , but hardly said exactly how everything is suppose to play out I think. Is it suppose to be like open world like borderlands, like planetside, or like Dayz with instances and limited number of players?Whats going to be client side or server side? I don't think anyone really knows probably the reason they hardly attempted to apply it to Dust and why they hardly talking about it now. If anyone knows then anyone can argue what would be possible on the ps3 , pc , or ps4. |

Well I got bf4 for the ps3 and 32 per match was the limit.
Seems to me it's both the hardware and the lack of experience of the developers programming for the ps3

actually its laziness, theres an article somewhere on one of the gaming news sites (forgot where, haven't checked in 3 years) that said most companies that get contracts with both sony and Microsoft for the games to be released on both platforms don't want to take the time it takes to make something look good on ps3 when itl only take 5 months on xbox, ps3 hardware more advanced, but developers are lazy as ****.

Laziness or maybe newer devs just aren't trained to be working on consoles but have an idea of how to do it?
I'm not sure but anyways the hardware is still and always will be an issue. Being stuck with this one box that will only improve software wise and devs having to go through the company that owns the software on that box really seems like too much to deal with.

if that's the case then over half the pc games shouldn't even exist on console, yet we have millions of pc games that are perfectly operational on consoles.

@ voidecho Well even if they aren't as trained on how to exactly get games working on consoles they might have an idea and it might not take long on learning how to get it set over for a console. But anyways that part is all speculation to me.
But the second part in my previous response where I said being stuck with a box that hardly improves over time and having to go through the company that designed and sold it is still a big issue to me. CCP has had to go through Sony just to update Dust which costs them time and supposedly money. It'd probably be much more time and money just to have Legion on both PC and ps4.
Now they may or may not have to go through much with PC, with EVE they have a client for people to download from their website. Downloading from Steam is optional but not required to play EVE, only reason I can see people downloading EVE from Steam is if they use Steam for all their games.
When it comes down to hardware they have nearly no limit, only limit is how much a PC gamer will spend to upgrade to Play Legion. Look at Star Citizen, the group that's developing that game is gonna make nearly everyone upgrade their rig because of how massive the game is gonna be. They are only making it for PC because of exactly what I said they aren't being held back by the hardware setup by some company in a box that won't improve much. http://www.dsogaming.com/interviews/cloud-imperium-on-star-citizen-mods-pc-exclusivity-graphical-features-directx12-multi-core-cpus/. Read the second paragraph of what the interviewee said.
There isn't much more else I can or need to add to this response but here is one last thing and this is my opinion.
Consoles are bought by those who want gaming simple, so keep it simple for them. Games like Legion and Star Citizen aren't simple games so give those games to those who don't mind compilation added to their gaming experience(PC gamers).

Nah. Then we'll have to listen to them ***** about getting rekt by mouse users and they'll want to gimp the KBM all over again so their potato thumbsticks have a chance.
Seriously, peasants, you have plenty of time before this game ever comes out. Get a job, save your pennies, build a reasonably priced PC. It's not that hard and it's very worth it.

I'd prefer to call them simpler gamers instead of peasants lol, but you're right it isn't that hard to figure out how to build a PC and even though it will most likely cost more than a ps4 it's worth it.

Fair enough. It just irritates me that they can't seem to grasp the simple reason why their Simplestation 4 can't do what PC's do.
Even if they port it over, they said they weren't going to until they get it working on PC. So thats time until release on PC + time to get it all working like they want it to + time it takes to port it over. So that's probably somewhere around 2018 or later. And that's assuming development by CCP goes smoothly lmfao.

TL;DR so if this was said i appoligise for repeating
No.
That all.. jk
The reason why i say no, is that i think CCP an into some roadblocks trying to merge dust and eve together. Its one of these things that you can only gain from experence, and if you don;t try you can;t see it. Also i have heard that Sony was a pita when it came to patches. And, honestly, if Legion and EvE are both on pc, and under ccp's complete control, then the 6 week release cycle that eve has can easily be ported to legion and you would have vibrant and fast updates for legion at the same time that you do for eve. Now add in the fact that valk is on pc.. then you can see that doing everything on pc, maybe with it all on TQ would make managment and patching and eventually combining of all things, so much easier in the long run.
You also kill a middle man, who might say 'you know CCP, we don;t want you to have the abilty to do this because we really don;t want to allow non PS users access to this." or whatever
So again.. no |

I don't think that has been mentioned here but in other areas of the forums awhile ago. I agree with what you said cuz it makes sense, they don't have to go through Sony and any middle man that would delay CCP updating Legion or prevent certain things from being in the game cuz of bs excuses.

You don't even know how Legion is going to exactly play out in terms of gameplay mechanics or features . So calling it a simple or complex game doesn't mean much . For all you know CCP will make these game run of low end hardware . CCP basically saying it the Legion supposedly going to be a "sandbox game" without saying how much it will actually be one and we or CCP does not even know if it will ship as one. There as not been a really large scale sandbox FPS nearly all of them has forms of instances or a low maximum amount of players. Star citizen is no expectation. Which is a different issue, since that game focus heavily on graphics fidelity, attention to detail, textures like every ship having a very detailed interior that is streamless to transition to, and very high levels of immersion . |

If they can pull of PC and PS4 being on the same servers, yes. If not, then I wonder if it is worth it.
DUST is a VERY small community, for a few reasons. The game is not as good at being a fast FPS compared to other games, it never got a lot of marketing, and the primary community that would be interested to try it because they play EVE may not have a console. I think splitting that community up even more but adding a probable influx of EVE players to the PC Legion is really unhealthy for the PS4.

True I don't know what the hardware requirements will be for Legion but if gets put on the ps4 all CCP will be able to do is optimize the **** out of it. And then their is Sony which is supposedly hard to deal with, I don't know anything about how CCP dealt with Sony when it came to updating Dust514 but the only thing I've heard is bad stuff.
Now wilI Legion be as complicated for new players as Dust was for new players? I hope so, I don't mean CCP not providing an actual tutorial but I mean people that are new to seeing so many options in a shooter. The things from EVE mattering to players such as space security lvs ( low sec, high sec, null sec and wormhole space) and all the affects of there being a certain amount or no security that Legion players may or may not need to worry about all the time. Keeping stock of their fits via the market or maybe never buying anything off the market and just using anything they salvage? Getting transport to certain areas that doesn't have a warbarge that you can't clone jump to like you would for public contracts and maybe getting killed along the way cuz the EVE pilot transporting you didn't know what he was getting into lol. And obviously more things but I'm in a rush here but I'm sure you can figure out the rest from here. I'll be back in a few hours lol.
I used Star Citizen as an example of what I meant of devs not being held back by the hardware that's been set in a console for its life cycle.

Lolz you can use nearly any type of controller that you want on a PC and yes that includes the controllers for the ps3, xbox 360, ps4 and xbox one. I started with a controller when I started playing Dust but now I use keyboard and mouse, something does feel a bit wrong keyboard and mouse but it's not so bad for me to complain about it.
I'm not telling you to suck it up and build or buy a pre-built PC ( recommend you build it), what I've been saying is its best for the game development wise to be on the PC only because of less barriers that they have to go through. I haven't called you guys peasants at all yet you keep going with this whole PC elitist thing.
One thing I only agree with you is that CCP would most likely make a lot of $$ if they put it on the ps4 also. Other then that though there really aren't any other good reasons to put Legion on the ps4 or any other console.

If the PS4 is supposedly capable of running PlanetSide 2 at Ultra settings, 40 FPS-lock, I think it would be fine with Legion. System capability isn't the problem here.
Console longevity is often pointed out as a problem, but let's be realistic. Each console will have a 6 to 8 year lifespan, and there is still a large player base on the PS3.
So I think I may be missing something, but the only other problem I'm seeing is difficulties with Sony when updating the game, and things like that. If they do, which I hope they do, have a console release for Dust/Legion, I promise I'll play that instead of Planetside 2. Most of the time. |

I switched to PC gaming not too long ago and I'm enjoying it, especially with all these sales on Steam. I spent plenty of time playing Dust 514 before fanfest this year. I don't play Dust much anymore and I sold all my games that I had for the ps3, only reason I keep my ps3 is for Dust 514. I have no problem with consoles but we know that eventually PC gaming and streaming devices are the future.
Legion looked great on the PC at Fanfest, but how far can they get with the ps4 hardware?
Legion will never be released.
DUST 514 should go to PS4 instead. Because it's a real game, and not bullshit.
It's my fault FA exists. Direct your rage to me.

Hmmmm looks like they had some trouble getting PlanetSide 2 ps4 version to be exactly like the PC version http://airherald.com/planetside-2-ps4-beta-on-schedule-for-december-despite-console-hardware-limitations/17538/

Well never say never lol, it's a possibility but still a foolish choice to me if CCP chose to have Legion on the ps4 also. Was going through Sony that bad for CCP? lol I've seen it being mentioned a little bit here and there plus I can also understand Sony putting limits and certain demands for CCP having a game on their hardware and network being connected to CCPs

I made a promise to myself to never give CCP any more money until Legion has a solid build on PS4.
All the maintenance for Dust 514 with no news on Legion is like patching holes in a half-sunken ship with no word on how construction of the lifeboat is coming along.
Also no word on if the lower class residents (console gamers) are just ****** or not.

End PS3. No PS4.
Just PC.
SONY has so many huge issues its not worth it anymore.
Maybe the PS3 plattform could be saved - but just at a minimal. I do not have the figures but they are supposed to be a huge burden and it should be impossible to keep up a PC and a PSN plattform.

I don't own a PS4, but I'd like it very much of Legion had a PS4 port.
The biggest challenge is making a competent build system to build PC and PS4 versions from the same source tree at the same time.
The next challenge to that is just slowing down the PC patch release cycle to match with the PSN release cycle.
Totally possible, but there has to be a will.

I agree working on the ps3 version is alright as long as the data they gather from these updates and hotfixes will be used to improve things they have set for Legion.
And getting a PC and Ps4 version running is possible but too much time and money. They've already wasted enough time and money getting Dust 514 to where it is now since they couldn't get the carbon engine with all the progress they made to work without setting a few ps3's on fire.

I think it has been proven that CCP does not work well within the restrictions of consoles. Their development style does not fit well with Sony's rules for updates.
Look at planetside 2. Sony has been running it for years now on PC and has continuously pushed back the PS4 launch. I think this really says a lot about the issues presented when comparing PC to console when even Sony them self has so much trouble. |

Agreed, I also believe that the consoles (if CCP ever got to release Legion on the ps4 and xbox one) would hold CCP back from achieving that original vision which is too much for me to explain in words so here : http://youtu.be/rKtYqWBR7h0 , http://youtu.be/aZ0k0ioROUo .
The idea of an fps and Valkyrie entry into New Eden shouldn't be held back by a simple box.

Im not sure if it is all a hardware issue tho. If you look at CCPs style in both Dust and Eve they seem to much prefer allowing the player base to quality check. Sony on the other hand, from what I have seen anyway, requires a drawn out process before publishing which really slows down the process.

Well yes of course it isn't completely a hardware issue but I'd say it's mostly that.

translation-
CCP: just goes with the flow and releases everything at once for the players to get angry over and be happy over and does adjustments accordingly.
Sony: requires the updates to be finished, polished and well done to the point where there are no visible bugs for anyone to get pissed off at before it gets released.
did I get that right?

Ya I suppose it's just too restricting for CCP though but their also are for sure other interests invested in Sony (middlemen) which will slow things down. Certain people want this amount of $$ for a certain update or release.
Now if CCP were to be able to actually fix things really soon after bugs have been found after a new release I would have no problem with the way they do things. But that's not how it goes of course, it's been a pretty bad experience with CCP trying to get this fps gateway(Dust514 now Legion) into New Eden to what they originally had visioned. If they only had gone with PC.......

Close.
Obviously Sony does not test based on in game bugs etc. Lets be honest if that was the case there would be no Dust.
Sony's testing involves more in the line of system stability, clean of any backdoors to the playstation or playstation network, and so on. It is this extended testing process which seems to really rain on CCPs parade along with the issues that consoles present in the first place. Far be it from me to speak on whats going on behind the closed doors of CCP tho. |

There is also a nice little factor that basicly every PS3 is the same. Same hardware, drivers, updates, etc. The same. Its much easier to find bugs this way, becuase if a dev makes an update, loads it onto his test ps3 and finds a bug, it should be replicatable on ALL ps3's. So in theory, if that bug is fixed it should be fixed on ALL ps3's.
Thats not the same for pc's. There are currently five different versions of windows that can run eve. Five. Each of these can be in different states of updates, there are something like 30+ different processors that can run eve. add in another couple hundred video cards, and hundreds of thousends of configurations. A bug that is not replicated on ccp's machines cause quite frankly they will all be really close to uniform, coudl show up on thousends of machines and not on thosends more. Thats the issue.
CCP has to have the player base QA because there is zero way to find all the bugs on every combination of machines available. Thats how it works.
My guess, TBH, is that:
1) the update process was too slow for ccp.
2) Dust did not make enough money to justify it going (but i doubt this)
3) There was a technology limitation on the ps3 that prevented ccp from doing the full stuff they wanted with dust.
4) there was a limitiation on PSN to CCP's network that caused them to not do what they wished.
5) something else.
The point i am making, is QA testing for the PS3 is EASIER then on pc. But if say sony has to screen it, it can slow down delvopment, and its easier to control a product on your own servers then on someone elses. |

A bug that is not replicated on ccp's machines cause quite frankly they will all be really close to uniform, coudl show up on thousends of machines and not on thosends more. Thats the issue.
CCP has to have the player base QA because there is zero way to find all the bugs on every combination of machines available. Thats how it works.
My guess, TBH, is that:
1) the update process was too slow for ccp.
2) Dust did not make enough money to justify it going (but i doubt this)
3) There was a technology limitation on the ps3 that prevented ccp from doing the full stuff they wanted with dust.
4) there was a limitiation on PSN to CCP's network that caused them to not do what they wished.
5) something else.
The point i am making, is QA testing for the PS3 is EASIER then on pc. But if say sony has to screen it, it can slow down delvopment, and its easier to control a product on your own servers then on someone elses.
Agreed, QA for an almost totally uniform set of systems should be easier.
I feel like the initial launch and the following 1 month update cycle was terribly managed. The game should have never been released without all weapons for all races as well as basic vehicles for all races. We have seen the server side balancing ability that they have, why this was not put to much more use before is a big question. Cramming half baked content in without true in depth testing in to meet a 1 month release deadline would not have been a good idea anywhere.
Another thing that was poorly thought out was putting Dust on Tranquility. Everything we needed for connectivity could have been done via API. Daily down time for Eve and occasional emergency downtime only scratches the surface of the issues that come from this. Last time I attempted to explain this every one totally failed to understand so I will not go in depth on that again. Just think about all we deal with being stuck in the bounds of Eve mechanics and what we gain from it. |

Honestly, iv completely given up on CCP. When I get a stable desktop im not going to eve il be in star citizen and elite: dangerous.
If they were yo bring legion to ps4 or upgrade dust to that platform, il reconsider going back to their lying asses.

So let me get this right, you are putting all your faith into vaporware that has not manifested much, past a 11 year game that have given lots? Well your money i guess |

I honestly can't hate on his decision to invest into something that's being developed more openly plus CCPs past choices like the one that caused those protests for one of those expansions (Incarna? not sure which one it was) ,their decision to put the idea of Dust514 on the ps3, their decision to announce at Fanfest that they were giving up on dust and remaking the idea of an fps in new eden on the pc when most of their community were console only.
And now their silence on Legions development if it's even being developed. With these updates for Dust bringing more doubt for Legions existence.
Should Legion be on the ps4?

At the original question.
Tbh it needs to be PC as much as I would love it on the xbox or ps4 the hardware and nature of the systems is too unreliable. I mean a signal DDOS on psn and their goes a chunk of a corps player base which could last damage on them.
The PC allows open integration with EVE and even Valk with a open platform that always keeping up with the times. Ps4 and xbox are great systems but they are not suited to MMO game play. Unless PSN really knocks my socks off i dont think legion as we want it can be done

No, because: - Consoles delay content due to need of approval from console manufacturers. - Consoles are inferior hardware compared to even a budget $400 PC. - TVs are inferior gaming displays. - If you want to play on a PC with a controller, it is possible.

I think Legion was simply proposed as a consolation for a planned cut of development on DUST. If you pay attention to the news at all, you will see CCP has encountered some rough times over the recent years cutting several unreleased projects outside of EVE where I think they are sticking with supporting EVE putting everything else on the back burner until they can properly recoup. Therefore, if Legion does happen, it will likely not be any time soon (likely not even within prime PS4 lifecycle). DUST is at least a released piece of CCP software that is bringing in a little revenue which is why we've seen the development spike it is having. I am not sure how much longer that will last though and even then there is the worry of Sony cutting PS3 PSN support (or at least moving to subscription).
I don't troll; I tell the truth.

You are so full of fail mate.
- Delayed content is working out great for Dust 514. LEL. - PCs are in fact cheaper than a console, given the same performance requirements such as only 720p and 30 frames/s (and if you pay $400 you can play in 1080p with todays cheap PC components). - Good PC monitors have 144 Hz native update rate, 1440p or 4K resolution, G-sync technology, 1 ms input lag. You will not be seeing any of this in a console for 10 years (if consoles even exist by then as a concept). TVs are 60 Hz, high input lag 10-50 ms, low resolution.
