We are not planning to make any announcements about or show anything new for DUST 514 or Project Legion at Fanfest, but CCP Rattati and CCP Rouge will be on hand to talk to attendees and participate in all the usual activities with everyone such as pub crawls and roundtables.
Oh look, it's world of darkness.

That is incredibly disappointing. No information on Legion? A game that has been in development for over a year and you have nothing you can show off? Especially considering much of the art assets and balancing numbers are already there via Dust.
Legion is vaporware.
It is not coming out, and when Dust is done it's done.
The only option they have for saving their studio is a PS4 port and eventual migration, but Rouge would rather not do it. Apparently he is under the impression that Legion and the engine its running on will somehow be relevant in 5 or 10 years or whatever it takes for them to theoretically get Legion out of the door.
Hilmar does not have that kind of patience, and he is already soured to the way Dust turned out. This studio is going to be killed slowly. They will start peeling members out of Shanghai one at a time based on usefulness to work on EVE, and when the team has gotten so small that progress no longer happens the rest will finally be laid off.
Ergo, Hello World of Darkness.
I would very much like for everything I just said to be a false. It would make me happier than anything.

You honestly dunno what you are talking about. And thats alright. WoD suffered because there cash cow suffered. Then it made no sense when they decided to focus on just the New Eden ip to keep WoD. It would save more money and resources in the long run. Dust is out and making money, and getting some updates. I doubt shanghi has to worry. And as i said before it has not even been a year. It takes time to make a game, patience. And again, i;d rather silence then borken promises that pisses off the player base even more.
No, YOU don't know what you're talking about. You have absolutely no clue as to the history or inner workings of CCP. I am intimately familiar with both. I have had many friends in and out of the CSM and CPM over the years and know many ex-employees from CCP itself. I know exactly how their middle management is completely disconnected from reality, how employees get shifted from between teams on a regular basis due to extreme levels of incompetence which stalls any progress from happening, and how top management is more than a little influenced towards trend chasing and hasn't been able to follow anything through since EVE's original inception 10 years ago.
Legion IS vaporware. Everyone on the inside knows it, and everyone with a brain on the outside knows it. Some people on the inside are in denial, and struggling like hell to make enough progress so that they don't get shut down. Rattati is pretty much the only thing keeping their lights on right now, and he won't be able to do that for the length of time it's going to take Legion to happen because the numbers for Dust ARE falling bit by bit.
If it takes you 10 more years to figure out this project is doomed, I feel genuinely sorry for you. But you are the one in the dark, not me.

People who claim to have insider knowledge unofficially are pretty regularly proven wrong. Either this means they make a lot of stuff up, or they're not the people who actually are in the know at CCP.
You're not going to argue with me because
1. It will put your position at risk.
2. You know I'm right.
So stop putting on the defensive act for CCP. If you had any real loyalty to CCP you should be focused on convincing Rouge to save his team.

I don't really care if I get in trouble. I've been banned twice already for putting morons in their place.
But I'm not going to throw former employees under the bus. It's up to them to speak out, and they quite often do.. CCP Shanghai members know their own situation, and so does Wormtongue. Whether or not he wants to work to keep CCP Shanghai in business is up to him.

On the contrary, there is a mountain of evidence to show I'm right. Ten years of feature abandonment, bad executive decisions and schizophrenic project management.
Learn from those who came before you.

If you want true testimonials, there are plenty of former employees and CSM members with loose lips. Selene was both, and that's pretty much never been a secret.

WoD was never talked about because they never had anything.
Legion will never be talked about because they don't have anything.
Usually banned for being too awesome.
