The PS3 may remain for years but the community will not. Lets get this thing over to PS4 *before* we get to a critical point and the community collapses.

I've broken DS4 controllers, but the only DS3 I lost was to a dog eating it.

If CCP announced plans to move Dust to x86 architecture and reaffirmed their commitment to this being a "10 year game" I suspect the PS3 version would become even more profitable.
#DustPS4 I got the feeling that it's being discussed. I don't see anyway they can ignore Dust's importance. Despite the epic fail announcement of Legion, a Dust is a profitable game. They should get those Devs that are working on Legion focused on a PS4 port ASAP.
Well, when you shoot a community point blank in the head and then it gets up, buys a round of drinks from the bar, and says, "That all you got?" you tend to pay attention.
At this point it seems like Dust is the comeback kid despite parts of CCP trying to put in down for good.

I'd wager nearly every single person that tried Dust on PS3 would give it a shot on PS4. Is that the case if they go to PC? I'd focus on PS4 first to take advantage of an already existing base.
Not only to take advantage of an existing base, but to treat the customers that have gotten the game to this point with dignity and respect.
Again, the PS4 is x86 so going beyond the PS4 to things like PC would be easy enough. Honor your current customers and then expand from there.

Can established companies even do crowd funding?

CCP doing some kind of crowd funding seems..... odd. Really if CCP announced they were going to go next-gen with Dust I think people would provide the crowd funding through Dust 514 itself.

#DustPS4 But how realistic is Dust going to PS4?
If CCP Rattati hits his goals for the 2015 roadmap and Dust continues to be profitable I think it could be very likely. Those are two big ifs though.
The funny thing is I think if people knew that this game had a clear long term future many players especially the f2p "whales" as they are called would be willing to fund Dust 514 even further.

#DustPS4 I feel like you're right....if they came out and said hey, we're going to spend the next 2-3 years building a well balanced PS4 version of Dust 514 and we're going to use Dust 514 via the PS3 to test what works and what doesn't.....we'd all be like sweet, cool yeah we can roll with that and then when the big day came we'd migrate. Plus it would give people time to buy a PS4 lol plus black friday's and all kinds of opportunities for deals! Who would disagree to this? This is pretty much what everybody wants, right?
It really feels like even the die hard Eve players that bought PS3s would go for PS4s if Dust 514 went this direction.
I think maintaining the console community that Dust has built up would be a huge win as well rather than trying to start over on the PC or cannibalize chunks of the current Eve community for Dust 514. One of the worst parts of the whole Legion debacle was the sense that CCP gave everyone that had help Dust survive the finger, which would also be reset by going PS4 as well.

If CCP came out and said they have a tentative timeline for Eve: Legion or DUST 514 (PC) I would start buying aurum at a quite frankly irresponsible rate. Hell, I would still buy some aurum if CCP stated they would migrate Dust to the PS4. Not as much as PC, mind you.
Ripley, you and I may disagree on the whole PS4/PC debate, but I think at the end of the day the key point is that we want Dust to survive beyond the PS3.
CCP supporting and planning to put Dust on x86 architecture would do that. Whether we end up on PS4 or PC that support would mean that Dust will have a future beyond the PS3.
